The Aberdeen Democrat. (Aberdeen, South Dakota) 1???-1909, 1906-01-26

Although difficult to believe, it is
nevertheless true that the death Of
two half sisters, the daughters of the
same father, occurred 10 years apart.
The grandfather Of the British minis
ter, Charles James Fox, Sir Stephen
Fox, married in 1864 and had a daugh-
ter born to him in 1866 who died in
the course of the same year. He had
several other children who grew up
and married, but all of them died be-
fore the father and without issue. Sir
Stephen, not wishing his large fortune
to fall into the hands of distant rela-
tives, married again at a very adyanc-
ed age, and his youngest daughter was
born in 1927. She reached the age Of
ninety-eight years and died in 1926
that is, ITO years after the death Of her
Oldest sister.

POISONED ARROWS.
Their Use In Warfare Dates Back to
Prehistoric Ages,

The1r Use In Warfare Dates Back to
Prehistoric Ages.
The use of poisoned arrows in primi-
tive warfare is undoubtedly of very
ancient origin. The custom is men
toned by Strabo, Pliny and Aristotle,
all Of whom agree that it was well
known in both prehistoric Europe and
Asia. In later times the Celts and
Gauls enyenomed their arrow and
spear shafts with the juices of the
nellebore, and the American and Aus
tralian savages with serpent venom
and virus from decaying flesh.
The very earliest mention of the
Scythians refers to them as "a people
who prepare arrow poison by mixing
serpent venom with the virus of putrid
blood serum" At the time Of the dis
coverytof America the Indians were as
well skilled in the science Of preparing
arrow poison as the Scythians or any
other early tribe Of European or Ash
attic people. The favorite mode as
practiced by the American aboriglnes
was to kill some wild animal, a deer
or buffalo preferred, remove its liver
and cause u heavily envenomed rep
tile to strike its fangs into it until the
meat turned green with poison. If one
serpent did not supply enough, others
We're obtained, and the work Of enrag-
ing the creatures and causing them to
strike the liver was kept up until the
desired results were obtained. One
large liver thus prepared would furnish
poison enough to coat the shafts Of TO-
600 arrows. The Smithsonian institute
has hundreds Of these poisoned arrows,
the microscope showing that most Of
them have been poisoned with rattle
snake venom.
