The family of John Moore, in north
ern Comanche county, went to a place
of refuge from tornado the other
night only to find that they had gotten
into a cave barefooted with a rattle
snake. The interior of the cave was
IN complete darkness when the in
mates were startled by hearing the I'M
mistakable sound made by a RATHER.
Mr.. Moore hastily struck match and
by its faint glimmer saw the snake In
the attitude of striking. The match
went out and the family began to
scream. Another match was lighted
and the snake was still visible, and
rafting furiously. Then Mr.. Moore
made a flying leap for the steps, jump
ing over the snake, opened the door
and secured a pitchfOrk. Then while
his wife held a match he killed the

ISLAND OF sAkHALIN,

The Island OF Sakhalln, Russ,a's
penal colony in the Far East, which
Japan has captured, is 500 miles long
and from II to 100 broad and has a
population of 10000.
For the most part the land is Gov.

that the rivers are the chief native
highways, navlgated by dugouts in
summer and crossed in dog or reindeer
sledges In winter. with the opening
of winter the narrow Straits of Tar

far as water communication is son
cerned the island Is cut off from the
world, and the mails are brought
across from Nicolaievsk on the main
land by nartas or sledges harnessed
with long teams of arctic dogs
In addition to the Russians Ave diff
ferent peoples are to be found on the
island, these including the Orochons,
Anus, Gilyaks, fungus and Yakuts
There are altogether about 5000 ma
tives, of whom the largest number are

around Korsakovsk in the south of
the Island. Alexandrovsk Is the big
gest prison center.
The stockade prison Is the center Of
| Alexandroysk, which place seems to
exist for the prison. The few mer~
chants stores and the iron foundry
are for the prisoners; the wooden
houses are the residences of the Off
cials. Besides the prison, the church
| In the main street and the market
place there is not much to call for at

According to Mr.. De Windt. who
visited the southern portion of SAX
halin, there are 5000 criminal con-
victs located at Korsakoysk, only
about 1920 OF whom are actually
under lock and key. The town con-
slsts of one long, struggling thorough
fare, beginning at the landing stage
and abruptly terminating at the huge
prison.
The conditions existing In the island
are almost beyond description. AL
most everyone Is a criminal and the
worst type Of Russian criminals at
that. Besides convicts, ex-convicts,
their wives and children, and the Off
| cials and troops Of the garrison, there
| probably are not a dozen free born
| individuals on the island. 1t has been
estimated that at least 5000 murder
grs are held there.
The whole of Sakhalln Is under mar
tIal law. In one of the prisons, out Of
total Of 600 prisoners, 500, mostly
chained, are kept in enforced idleness,
so that many go mad. The conyicts
term of confinement in Sakhalin is fol-
| lowed by six years enforced residence
in the island as exile settlers" and
| further six years In Siberia as peas
ants" after which they are free to re-
turn to Russia, but as matter of fact
nine-tenths of the convrcts never leave
tho island. Insanity is very common.
Crime Is rampant, even under the very
eyes of the officials.
The island Is heavily wooded, vast
| forests sweeping away for hundreds
Of miles. These forests are the home
Of great bands of bears, wolves and
escaped convicts, of which the latter
are not least dangerous,
