BERKELEY SPRINGS, W. Va, June IL.
"A. r. Dawson of Rockford. Morgan coun-
ty, W. Va, farmer of means, standing
and intelligence, tells of most remarkable
experience, yesterday. He says that while
he was looking over one of the mountain
fields. which he had sown in wheat, he
heard young rabbit making noises of dis
tress, and in second he saw the mother
rabbit bounding back and forth over the
same spot, while a rattlesnake was sound
ing his rattles vigorously On looking close
Mr.. Dawson says he saw the rabbit grab the
snake and give it a shake and then jump
away, only to return to bite and shake him
more severely. After the snake which had
showed fight right along. had been killed by
the rabbit, the old mother rabbit dragged
him ten or twelve feet from the spot where
the fierce battle took place, and commenced
eating him, as Mr. Dawson thought but
after watching over half an hour. Mr.. Daw-
son moved and the rabbit ran away. On
examining the snake. Mr.. Dawson found
five holes through It, its entrails torn out
and one young rabbit which the snake had
swallowed had been torn from it's stom-
ach. This was what the rabbit was eating
instead of the snake. She ate one-half of
1t. The snake measured twenty-seven and
one-half. inches, including the rattles. Mr.
Dawson has the rattle as memento of the
unusual occurrence.

The councils named made a vigorous pro-
test against the payment of increased tax
alton without a corresponding increase in
representation. The Supreme Council then
suspended the local state councils and
undertook to assume control of the affairs
of the councils. The suspended councils at
once went to work. got a charter from the
state. and formed the State Council Of the
Junior Order of American Mechanics
The suspended faction became known as
the insurgents" while the few remaining
with the national council were designated
the "1oyaists.' The insurgents went to
court to compel the loyalists to cease using
the name of the order and to virtually get
out of the state. The trial resulted In Ia
vor of the chartered council, and an appeal
was taken. The supreme court has decided
that the council chartered by the state Is
the legal body; that the other has no stand
ing and will have to change the name or
cease to do business under the name desig-
mated by the charter to the state council
The insurgents have a strong membership
in the state while the loyalists are nu-
merically and financially greatly inferior to

Royal Arcanum Assessments.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
RICHMOND, Va, June 17.-While the
members of the Royal Arcanum In this city
and state are. as rule, disposed to ac-
quiesce as a body to the new order of
things and to pay the increased assess
ments. there is much dissatisfaction and
considerable belief that some willy agent of
some insurance company has manipulated
deal whereby the ''old men, will leave the
order and seek other Insurance at high
rate In an old-line company.
The men who have grown old In the or
der and who are enthusiastic-that is, up to
week or ten days ago-are putting up a
vigorous protest, and there is some talk
about forcing the Supreme Council to hold
a session and readjust the rates so that the
burden will not fall so heavily upon the
old men. It Is believed that many men will
leave the order, FORGETTING insurance. and
in many instances leave families at their
death, unprovfded for. There are MANY
men in the city and state who have maid
1000 and more who will be forced to sur
render all simply because they cannot af-
ford the Increased assessments and support
their families at this time.
In many sections there Is disposition to
have an investigation OF the methods and
an assignment OF reasons why the burden
of the increase should be put on the old
men instead of being graduated more uni
formly among the entire membership. There
are 5000 members In this state.

FOR JOHN PAUL JONES REMAINS.
Large Force Constructing Temporary
Vault at Annapolis
correspondence OF The Star.


ANNAPOLIS. Md, June IL. 1905.
A large force. in fact. many men as
could be employed in the limited space.
was set to work today constructing the
temporary vault in which will repose tie
body OF John Paul Jones until such time
as the chapel. now in course of construc-
.tion. shall be completed. The chapel is
being pushed rapidly, but it will be at
least eight months before ii will be in con-
dition for receiving the body.
The temporary vault is being built in the
middle of the old parade grounds. a short
distance from the band stand and directly
opposite the new chapel. 1t will be a very
plain and unassumng structure, about ten
by twelve feet in dimensions and rising
about ten feet. Plain red brick. neatly
pointed, is being used. with the except on
of the two window and two door sills, which
are of stone.
The work is being done by the govern
ment itself and is being supervised by a
contractor Although it will be some time
before the body arrives here, 1t is desired
to have the vault completed and ''ripened
before that time in order that there may
be no delay or hitch at this end of the
journey.
When the body reaches here it will be
placed in the vault and the latter hermet-
ically sealed until the time arrives for the
removal of the body to what is thought
will be its last resting place.
