HUNDREDS HUNT
FOR SCORPIONS

CITY OF MEXICO, May 16.--Hun-
dreds of men, women and children are
hunting scorpions in the state of Du-
range. The municipal governments
throughout the state are paying one
cent for each scorpion killed, and
from 5000 to $1,000 are being killed
daily. Last year all the surplus
money in the municipal treasures
was expended for scorpions, and the
payments were necessarily suspended.
Since that time the scorpions have
multiplied at a marvellous rate, and
now the state seems to swarm with
the poisonous insects. 1t is stated
that there are more scorpions this
year than ever before in the history
of Durango. For some reason the
scorpions of Durango are more poi
sonous than those of any other sec
ton of Mexico The bite of the in
sect is almost always fatal to small
children, and many adults die from
scorpion poisoning.
Several hundred scorpions have
been received at the National Medical
institute in this capital from Duran
go. Rabbits will be inoculated with
the poison Of the insects in the hope
of securing a preparation that will
prove effective in the treatment of
scorpion poisoning.
