MANY SNAKES; WANT SALOON
Argument Is That Bite Remedy Should
Be Made Easy of Access-Ask
One License
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
WILLIAMSPORT, Pa, March 14.-Ti-
pga county long has been known as the
home of the "bellbird." or rattlesnake,
They are common there, particularly on
ties go and camp several days at a
time, gathering the big blueberries and
laying in their winter supply of rattle
snake oil, a common household remedy.
There is a new mining town in Nor
ris township, about ten miles south of
the county seat, built by Aylesworth
Bros. of Blossburg, and so frequently
were these poisonous Tioga county
singers found in its construction and
about the mines that the town by com
mon consent has been called "Rattler." +"
There are rattlesnake stories told
about the settlement of the place that
make ones blood run cold; how a
woodsman awoke and found one in
bed with him. and another coming into
log stable at night, slammed the
door after him on account of storm,
and a big yellow fellow who was Jared
off the beam over the door and dropped
about his neck like a necklace.
A prosperous little town has grown
up about threse mines, and an enter
prising citizen has applied for a whole
sale license, against which there is said
to be no remonstrance. Among the
arguments advanced for the necessity
of a license at "Rattler' 1t is said that
the liability of the inhabitants In snake
bites Is so great that plentiful supply
OF the never failing, popular remedy as
preventive and cure is an abso-
lutte necessity. What weight II win
have II made TO the court Is to be de-
termined.

MARY CHANGED HER SPOTS
Suered from Rare Disease That Puz-
zles Bellevue Physicians in
ManhattanvilIe

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, March 14.-Fat smiling
and apparently healthy. a girl 3 years
old puzzled a clinic in Bellevue hospital
and hasn't even started in to do things.
AS a fact, she changes her spots
momentarily. She Is Mary Eigholz of
sol West One Hundred and Fifteenth
street, and is victim of that rare dis
ease known as "purpura hemOrrhagia," I"
heretofore known only among old per-
sons.
Describing the symptoms. DR.. White
said that little Mary's body at times
presents the appearance of having been
tattooed, while the skin changes to col
ors like the rainbow under the in
fiuence of weather conditions Beneath
the skin blotches of plum color, rang
ing in size from a pinhead to a penny,
change shape like a drop of oil on the
waves, and form star figures, PIN
wheels and little oval shapes. The
disease does not affect the head or
neck, but the spots cover the body
otherwise.
More than three weeks ago the
mother said, she noticed the varied
colors of Mary's body when bathing
the child and felt alarmed. Home
remedies and neighborly suggestions
were worked out to no effect and Mrs.
Eigholz carried the child to Bellevue
hospital, where DR.. White took the case
under observation and for treatment.
Mary's appetite is good and she
sleeps well. The doctor says the dis
ease probably was the result Of rheu-
matte gern which got into her sys-
tenn. Mrs. Eieholz says her grand

MILLION A MONTH
INCREASE IN EARNINGS

Minneapolis, Sept. 21.-Earnings of
the Northern Pacific are increasing
at the rate of $1,000, 900 month, or
an average of 20 per cent over one
year ago. This is an indication of
the increase in business in Northern
Pacific territory, especially when it is
remembered that earnings year ago
increased $1,O0O,000 month over
the earnings of 1905. July gross
earnings in 1906 increased 81, 100, GOO
a month over the earnings of 1905,
and earnings in July, 1907, increased
$12,266. 900 over earnings in July,
1906. Similarly. August earnings in
1906 showed an increase of nearly ST.
600, 900 over earnings of August, J 9O5,
and the earnings of August, 1907.
show an increase Of. nearly $500, 600
over those of August. 1906.
The average increase during the
past two months has been nearly 20
per cent.
The annual report of the Northern
Pacific will not be published for near
" a month. It will show. however,
a heavy Increase in operating expenses,
which has been the experience OF most
of the Western roads during the past
year. This is owing partly to bad
weather, but principally to the higher
payroll and higher costs in general.

FAKE CORPORATIONS.

Maine the Easiest State In the Union
In Which to Launch Them.
Do you want company to supply
the people Of Mars with steam shovels
to dig their canals? Do you want to
form a company to raise bananas in
Alaska? Do you desire a concern to
trade in spirits of the heroes Of the
past? Well, If you do go to Maine and
file your papers. You can form a cor
poration with capital limit only ex-
ceeded by the skyline, and it won't cost
you enough to set you back very ma
terially either.
For years Maine has been the mecca
Of those who wished to foist companies
on the unsuspecting public. The fees
for granting a charter are merely nom
inal. The taxes are still more so,
something like an annual franchise
tax of S. on $4,000 capitalization. Al
most no questions are asked, and 1t is
as easy for company with any OBJ
ject whatever, and a few dollars to
pay the necessary fees and printing,
to get full-fedged charter as 1t is for
a man to get a drink in the city Of
Bangor.
All sorts of fanciful corporations are
