How Poison of Cobra Acts.

The venom of the cobra contains
an ingredient not well known that
acts upon the nerves. Its effects are
rapid and difficult to counteract.
This ingredient exists in the cobra :
venom to a greater extent than the
other substances that make up the
poison. The poison Of the viperinc
and crotalinc snakes (the rattle
szake, copperhead, moccasin, etc.
contains but a small percentage OF
this nerve destroying or paralyzlne
element. The poison of these snakes
acts principally upon the blood and
in consequence its action is slower.

founded on facts, and is in four
intensely interesting acts, and

the original scenery, mechanical
and electrical effects in the same
manner that has characterized it's
great success in all the leading
cities. The action Of the play is
located near Johnstown, in the
summer Of 1889, before and after
the great food. The dialogue is
brisk and the comedy and
pathos blend well together, while
the climaXes are dramatic and
sensational. The scenes are as
real as the art Of the scenic artist
and good acting could make them,
principal among which are the
following: the great horseshoe
bend. the Cambria iron works,
the South Fork dam, the Memoir
ial bridge, the terrific rainstorm
of real water. the great flood
scene which is a veritable reve-
lation Of the possibilities Of mod
ern stage development and per-
feet production, in which the linn
it of stage realism has at last
been reached. The whole being

is held continuously from begin

ence will witness "The Johns
