Inc King Cobra is the most dreaded Of
al snakes by man and reptile, because
uls Dite kills man in Eve minutes and
because his natural food is snakes Of
any old kind. OF late they have been
feeding him raw eggs and he got tired
OF them. The guards mistook his Door
appetite for a longing for companion
snip and when some one brought into
the park six-foot blacksnake OF a
harmless sort they thought he would
make a good roommate for King Cob
ra this because his bite could not pos
slbly hurt the valuable old fellow. They
put the blacksnake into the kings cage

Hello" said King Cobra; ''you look
like a right good sort of fellow. Hope
shall like you first rate, don't yer

Hope you WILL" said the blacksnake
Hello, here's an egg." And he pro

HEAlD-ON COILS ON.
THREE TRAINMEN KILLED ON
The GREAT NORTHERN.
Also Three Seriously lnlured-crew
Of Freight Train DisObeyed orders
Near Everett, Wash.-crash With
Passenger Train FolIowed--TwO
Other Freight Trains Just Escaped.

Everett, Wash, Oct. 22.-The fail
ure of freight train to obey orders
resulted in headon collision on the
Great Northern at o'clock Sunday
morning a few miles east of Monroe,
in which three were, killed, three seri-
ously injured and others bruised. The
dead:
Freight Engineer ]. E. Hudson.
Freight Fireman A. W. Riddell.
Freight Fireman Patrick Sheridan.
The injured: Passenger Engineer
George Lawrence, Passenger Conduc-
tor Wetzell.
The freight was an extra, east
bound 1t had orders to meet No.
277, the Skykomish local at Monroe.
Arriving at Monroe the crew Of the
train believed they had time to make
Sultan, the first station east Of
Monroe.
Immediately after leaving Monroe
the, train broke down and was de-
llayed some time. Just after they had
started up the collision took place.
The track at this point is tortuous,
winding around the Snohomish
Neither engineer could see the other
train until they were within 100 feet
of each other. The trains came to-
gether with terrific impact. Both
engines left the track. Their crews
: stuck to their posts till the last min
ute. That there were not many ia
talities among the passengers is due
to the lightness of the train, consist
J ing only Of three cars, and that thu
heivy freight was going up grade.
Passengers hurried from the coaches
: and assisted in extracting the deaf
and injured. Fireman Riddell OF thu
freight train was found sitting head
6 less beside his engine. His engineer
! Hudson, was not found until late il
= the afternoon, his body being buriei
under the ponderous freight engine.
Both the engineer and fireman
the passenger were badly scalded
! Fireman Sheridan died on the way t.
the hospital in Everett. Enginee
y. Lawrence was brought to the hospita
\ here and the physicians say his burn
are not fatal. Lawrence has a wifi
n and two children in Seattle; Hudso
! also has family in Everett. All tn
o others were unmarried.
. Conductor Erickson of the freigh
train was placed under arrest b
Deputy Sheriff Brown at Snohomis
at the instance of Coroner Mum. TIL
coroner will hold an inquest at Sn'
homish tomorrow afternoon.
The escape of the freight train
from a disastrous wreck betwee
Leavenworth and Cashmere was
narrow one, and that the engines di
e not come together is due to the fa'
that when first seen by the engineer
the trains were on level stretch
'e track between the two towns. TT
wheels did not cease revolving unit
the engines nearly touched each OF
IS err. A mistake in the train orders
their misleading is assigned as Il
t. cause of the blunder.

FATAL CRASH ON MOUNTAIN.
Narrow Gauge Kentucky Train Is
Wrecked-Three Die.

Lexington, KY, Oct. 22.-As the
result of an extra freight train on
the Mountain Central narrow gauge
railroad jumping the track, near
Compton Junction, three persons are
dead and a number seriously injured.
The dead are: Bud Smith, engineer;
Charles Lythe, conductor, and Joe
Derrickson.
The accident occurred on a steep
grade and when Engineer Smith saw
that he could not control the train
he called for the brakes to be put on.
Despite the efforts of the crew, how
ever, the speed of the train increased
until it left the track

HIn Scheme worked.

It is related that certain man was
recently very sad because his wife had
gone out Of town on visit which she
would not shorten in spite of his APP
peals to her to come home. He finally
hit upon a plan to induce her to return.
He sent her copy of each Of the local
papers with one item clipped out, and
when she wrote to find out what it was
he had clipped out he refused to tell
her.
The scheme worked admirably! In
less than a week she was home to find
out what it was that had been going
on that her husband didn't want her tc
know about.-Pittsburg Press.

RACE ISSUE IS DANGEROUS.
Colonel YoungbIood Says TilIman
Speaks No Idle Words.

Colonel William Youngblood of Ala
1ama, former auditor in the treasury
department. and a prominent republi-
,an, in an interview at the national
capital, declared that a great danger
ahead of the nation, because Of the
ace question.
Senator Tillman speaks no idle
vords," he says. "a great danger is
lhead of us. It is strange that gov
eminent which runs off to civilize
he Filipinos, to relieve the oppressed
Cuban, and which is so powerful as to
bring peace between Russia and Jap
an, is too powerless or so Indifferent
to the protection of the life, liberty
and property of its own subjects. The
only remedy of the race issue is the
election of a nonsectional, non-racial
man to the presidency"

SPLENDID ILLUMINATION.

1t In reported that the Commercial
Club OF this city is making arrange
ments to illuminate that part OF West
Temple street which is In front OF tbs
Club building, after the manner adopt
ed on Broadway, Los Angeles, which
has made that thoroughfare strikingly
beautiful especially at night. Iron posts
are erected. each surmounted by clu.-
tor OF lamps. the electric lights beins
covered with ground-glass shades. ~
arranged that each cluster resembles a
bunch of mammoth grapes. These are
set within short distances Of each other,
on both sides Of the long street, and
make most splendid scene when light
ed up. Nothing more magnificent In the
way OF street illumination has been
seen In the West, and perhaps not ~
any other part OF this continent. The
example set by the Commercial Club
will probably be followed IN other parts
OF this city, and likely by the munlcl-
pallty for some Of the principal ave-
nues. The Improvement made In Los
Angeles was effected by the co-opera-
ton Of the property holders and the city
authorities. Some arrangement OF a
similar kind may hereafter be made
here, when the glory Of the illumination
In from, of The Commercial Club Is seen
and appreciated. We hope the plan
projected Will be fully carried out.
