King Edwards Wealth.

While the king of England is grant
ed about s4,OO0,OOO a year by the Brit
ish parliament in what is termed the
civil list, this forms only fraction
of his majestys real wealth, as the
king actually owns property valued
at close to $1O0,OOO.O00. As a matte,
of fact, the king of England must be
considered as wealthier than an
American with two hundred millions
of money. Moreover, the king has his
money all invested in real estate, and
owns more real estate than any Other
single English-speaking individual ex
oept perhaps William Waldorf Astor
the elder, who owns blocks and blocks
of New York real property, although
he has become naturalized subject

DANCE WITH LIVE SNAKES.


Groups OF three are now formed
by the snake men. each group con
sisting Of carrier priest, an at
tendant and a gatherer and these
wait their turn in front of the kisi,
where the snakes are handed to the
carrier priest Soon all the dancers
are furnished with reptiles, and,
holding the sQuirming snakes in their
teeth, they dance slowly and with
closed eyes around the plaza,
The carrier priest is followed by
the attendant, who holds snake
whip with which he distracts the
snake and SO Siverts its attention
from the man Who carries it, and the
gatherer is always ready TO snatch
up the snakes when they are dropped
to the ground
| have often noticed rattlesnakes
held closer to the rattles than to the
head, so they could easily run their
heads into the eyes and hair of the
carrier priest. 1t was nervous work
watching them, for it often appeared
as if nothing could prevent a fatal
strike, but the priests never seemed
to be unneWed or disconnected in the
least and the programme is never
changed
After the plaza has been circled
twice with each snake, it is dropped
to the ground, the shock of the fall
being violent enough usually to cause
the rattler to coil and shake its rat.
ties. Then the gatherer, with few
strokes of his feather whip, reduces
1t to submission, picks it up and
hands 1t to one Of the antelope men
to hold.
When all the snakes have been
danced with, each one receiving the
same treatment, the head snake priest
strews meal in a circle at one side
of the floor, and the snake priests
all gather around it. Then at a given
signal, all the snakes are thrown
within the circle, where they are
sprinkled with sacred meal by num-
bers of Hopi maidens.
Then another signal is given, and
the snake priests swoop down, grab
up as many snakes as they can carry
and rush down the sides of the steep
mesa to the plains below to release
the snakes in certain sacred places,
so that they may carry the prayers
from the living to the dead, and the
ancestors of the EIopi may intercede
for them with the nature gods that
there may be plenty of rain and no
danger of the crops being destroyed
by drought.-The Craftsman.

Eyes Are Hereditary.

The British Association is asking

ed. The difficulty of investigation is
no more than noting down the color
of the eyes of the family. In the light
of science there are only two sorts
of eyes-blue and not blue. Hence
appears a strange law of heredity
1t is asserted that where both par
ents have blue eyes, all the children
have blue eyes; where both parents
have brown eyes, all the children
have brown eyes but it is where the
parents differ that this alleged law Of
heredity Is most surprising. In this
case brown eyes are said to be domi.
nant, and blue eyes recessive, so that
the children of mixed parents three
of every four will have brown eyes
and one blue.

Origin Of ScotIand's Motto.

It was thought by the Danes to be
cowardly to attack an enemy after
nightfall, but on one occasion when
they were waging war in Scotland,
they deviated from their usual rule.
On they crept noiselessly and unob-
served, In their bare feet, upon the
unsuspecting Scotchman. When near
the camp one of the Danes trod upon
thistle and in his pain cried out.
This aroused the sleeping Scotchmen,
and they gave the alarm. The Danes
were defeated with terrible loss of
life, and ever since that time the
thistle has been the insignia of Scot
land, with the motto: Memo me i'm.
pune lacessit. mo one provokes me
with impunity."
