SNAKES AT $4,000 A FOOT
Some Reptiles Are Sold by the Pound.
Information About the WiggIers,
Bio and Little
Biz and Little

"Snakes," said dealer in wild
animals and reptiles to the New York
Sun, increase in value out of all
proportion to their size. So while
you could buy a seven foot python
for SIP you couldn't begin to buy one
of twice that size for twice that price.
A fourteen foot python would be
worth $3.50, and python twenty-five
feet in length would cost $500.
"Some sorts of smaller snakes are
regularly sold by the pound, and we
sometimes buy big snakes in that
way of sailors who bring them in on
ships coming from snake countries.
We weigh the big snake in bag and
pay so much pound for it.
"But big snakes are not sold in
that way by dealers, nor are they
sold by the foot, though, of course,
the length governs the snakes value.
OF two snakes the same length one
might be worth more money than the
other, for snakes vary in their physi-
cal characteristics just as human be-
ings do, and their prices vary &C
cordingly.
''Of two big snakes of the same
length and the same thickness one
might weigh fifty pounds more than
the other, and then of the two big
snakes of the same length one might
be thin and spare of body, while the
other was thicker and bulkier, and as
between the two, other things being
equal, the bulkier snake would be
worth more, because it would make
the more striking and imposing show.
"Thus. while the length does gov
ern it is not the only thing to be
taken into account, and so big snakes
are sold neither by the pound nor by
the foot, but at prices fixed on each
individual snake.
eve import annually hundreds of
big snakes, the great majority of them
ranging in length between seven and
twenty feet The very biggest snakes
are becoming scarcer and more diff
cult to obtain. Our collector in
India, while in the course of that
time he has gathered many big
snakes, has in the last six months OBJ
tanned but one snake measuring
twenty-five feet in length.
"Big snakes and little ones are
sold to geological parks and to show
people all over the country. For the
very largest snakes the demand is
greater than the supply"

WISHED TO SEE HIS WIFE'S SPIRIT
An Astounding Theory Advanced in Case OF Harvard In
structor and Mystic Charged With Poisoning Woman

is said to have held, and which, out
of love of pure science, he is said
to have put to the test, to the de-
struction of his own wife.
The case of Aylmar, the devoted
scientist in Nathaniel Hawthorne s
romance of "The Birthmark, in
which, at the triumph of science,
the life of Aylmar' beautiful wife
is snuffed out, was recalled, and
one of the learned men at Harvard
dug up the recent case Of Professor
Adolph Berrich of Boston, who,
when arrested for wife murder IN
Colorado, frankly confessed that he
administered poison to his wife that
he might see her soul leave the
bodv-and who declared in words
of awe and reverence that 1t rose
like shadow as she drew her last
breath and foated away into space.
In such an extraordinary case as
this of Muenter, where the men OF
science differ so radically in all ma
terial points, it is not strange that
the authorities have failed to agree.
For instance Judge Amy, in the
Cambridge district court, has thus
far declined to issue warrant for
Nuenter's arrest, despite the fact
that Prof. Whitney's report of the
chemical analysis of Mrs. Muenter S
stomach tells of marked traces OF
arsenic. and despite the insistence
Of District Attorney Sanderson and
Chief of Police Hurley that a suffi-
Gent case already made out.
A dispatch from Chicago states
that the brothers of Mrs. Muenter
assert that Muenter told them he
was not responsible for his wife S
death and that before she died she
oave him a written statement to
this effect.
In a case like this with so many
puzzling features-such startling
circumstances and such weird
undercurrent of the supernatural
there are some who incline to a
theory that Mrs. Muenter may have
acouiesced in her own death, IN
order to enter into that high spirit
nal state which it is represented is
The portion of those who die at the
neriod of motherhood.
But so pulling is the case and
co completely is it involved in mys-
terv that almost any theory may be
satisfactorily adjusted to the case.

Boys Project With Pistols With Fatal
Result to One of the Party.
Over in Lee county Sol Page, the
10 year-old son of the late Silas Page,
was accidentally killed by Roy Salter,
one year his junior.
The two boys and another bov
named Mcbride were together at the
home of Mrs. Frank Minis, with whom
Sol Page and his mother lived. The
elder members of the household were
away from home.
The boys climbed through window
into the house, and Page and Salter
began fourishing pistols. The Nc
BRIDE boy became frightend and ran.
A moment after he left the house he
heard the report of a pistol, and Roy
Salter came out with the information
that Sol Page was dead.
A coroner's jury held an inquest,
and decided thai the fatal shot
had been fired by Roy Salter,
but that the killing was accidental.
The Salter boy declares that he was
so badly frightened by what happened
that he cannot give straight account
of the tragedy, though he says he has
no recollection of having fired

MAY BRING THEIR MILLS sOUTF
Why the English Spinners are Now
in This Country.

When the English cotton spinners
were in Bennettsvlle, S. c., the other
dav the editor of the Advocate of that
town had an interesting conversation
with some of them respecting the pur-
nose of their visit to America and its
probable results. With respect to one
feature of the interview the Advocate
says:
"But there is another phase OF this
English investigation which has not
heretofore been published. 1t was
learned from the Englishmen who
were here Saturday that possible
result of their study of conditions in
the south would be the removal OF
the English mills to the cotton fields,
or the building of new mills in the
south. 1t was learned that these Eng
lishmen represent several great cotton
manufacturing syndicates which oper-
rate MANY millions of spindles, and
REPRESENT billions of capital. These
svndicates are considering the ques-
tion of investing money in the south,
and their decision will largely depend
on the report of the investigating COM
rnittee which is now in this country. "

Favoring Sea Level Type and Making

Washington. May 12.-The senate

deadlock on the question of the
type OF canal to be recommended. The
question was taken up today and the
vote showed five for the sea level canal
and nve for the lock type recommend
ed by the minority of the board of
consulting engineers. There were two
absentees, Senators German and Car
mack. The latter telegraphed from
tennessee, instructing the chairman
to count his vote for the sea level type.
which would have made a majority
against the lock canal system desired
by the administration. After wrangling
for an hour over the question of ac-
cepting the vote of Senator Carmack.
the commission adjourned until We'd
nesday next.
An effort was made by Senator
Kittredge to vote Senator Carmack but
objection was made. It was argued
thta this course would be unprecedent-
ed inasnluch as the Tennessee senator
has not attended any of the hearings.
Senator German, who has been i'll
since the hearings were begun, has
made no request that his name be
voted. 80
1t Senator Carmack should return
to Washington before the meeting
Wednesday, undoubtedly the decision
OF the committee will be in favor of
the sea level canal. If the question
was submitted to the committee wheth-
er his vote should be counted it is said
that the sea level advocates would
win.

Washington, May 12-The senate
committee has granted the represents

the question of the free distribution
OF common garden seeds through what
is known as the congression free seed
distribution. The seedsmen have; long
protested against what they term is
an unjust interference with their
Legitimate business, out, never before
have they had an opportunity to pre-

tees Some years ago several seedsmen
appeared before the house committee
on agriculture but this year they knew
nothing Of the possibility OF the COM
mittee eliminating the customary free
seed appropriation until after the COM
mtttee had acted. Consequently they
had no opportunity to present their
views to the committee IN q formal
manner .;,t
The hearing before the senate COM
mittee promises to be of more than
usual interest following as It does
the riotOus debate in the house of rep-
representatives. The seedsmen will
maintain that there is no cOnstitu-
tional authority for the distribution of
common garden seeds and will pre-
sent to the committee that there is not,
so Tar as known, any other government
which gives away anything and of
everything produced In the United
states the only product gratituously
distributed by, this government is
seeds. The existence OF as seed trust
or the possibility ofsthe same will be
denied and something viii be said con-
