s1o,ooo Scattered in the Stree.

Mrs. Katherine Mace, who is 62 years old, was on her way from her home, at Avenue G and East Ninety-second street, Brooklyn, yesterday afternoon to a bank in Court street with $l0,000 in bank notes, which she had received in the morning for piece of property. At o clock Borough Hall square is as busy, perhaps, as Times square at mid night, and Mrs. Mace was fighting her way through the swirling stream of hu- manity.
 At Court and Joralemon' streets she stumbled and fell headlong. Her hand satchel flew out of her hand, opened, and the $lO,000 in bank notes was scat tered out on the pavement. The news boys saw it first, and their quick dash to pick it up was followed by others. Few paid any attention to the old wo- man, who could not pick herself up.
 Policeman John O'Reilly, who was standing near, ran to fight back the crowd from Mrs. Mace's money. He picked her up first and then gathered up the scattered sl0,OOO. The old wo- man went in a cab to her bank in Court street, where it was found that not a dollar had been lost.-New York Times.

Disarming in New York

The zeal shown by the police of New York in disarming the weapon-carrying population of that city is worthy of imitation elsewhere. Everybody in the metropolis has been well acquainted with the fact that thousands of men have made a practice of going armed contrary to law, yet three men, two of them policemen, had to be slain before any step was taken to convince these offenders that the law was in earnest.
 It would seem that we do not believe that a gun is deadly weapon until somebody has actually killed somebody with it. And yet no truism is more familiar than that which declares "an ounce of prevention is worth pound of cure. e.''
 It is grave question for us what the proper treatment of this matter is. Criminal law can act only on facts, it is true, but carrying pistol or a dirk is fact just as truly as killing man with either is a fact, and often the kill ing is the direct product of the carry ing. We know the practice is common, even among native Americans, yet we do nothing about it till murder is done because of it and then, like Mer- eutio s dreaming soldier, only half walked up, five swear a prayer or two and sleep again.

blacksnake is not constructor and not a deadly Voc of the rattler, and that hoop snakes do not take their tails in their mouths and oil down hill.
 It is difficult to retain patience in discussing the wild assertions of this scientific person. He flies in the face of indisputable testimony, gathered with infinite detail and rounded into sym metrical truth by constant repetition and exchange from time immemorial. There is not a boy in the country who does not know personally some of the things which Professor Ditmars says are not SO; and if the boy does not know them at first hand, he can bring score of companions who can testify either to personal experiences or to in timate acquaintance with persons who know all about them. Professor Dit mars in his zeal for sensational state ments runs the risk of being ridiculed by every boy in the United States. It is all right to cultivate spirit of scien- tifc inquiry, but to fly in the face of established tradition is as dangerous as it is futile. Professor Ditmars will make no converts in his wild theories.

AN EXPERT ON SNAKES

Professor Raymond l.. Ditmars, cura- tor of reptiles in the New York Zoo, has written book to show how much he knows about snakes, crocodiles, liz ards, turtles, and so on, and how little the rest of the world knows. His book is interesting enough, but we don t thank him for trying to upset and des- troy some of the most authentic and indestructible traditions in the lore of American boyhood. It is perfectly evi- dent that Professor Ditmars never was a boy, or, if he was, that he is ashamed of the fact and is now trying to hide it. Some of his statements are appar- ently uttered with the deliberate in tention to infiame passion and provoke hostilities.
 For example, Professor Ditmars sol emnly asserts that milk snakes do not rob cows. He bases this statement on the fact, as he claims, that the milk snake cannot hold more than two tea spoonfuls of milk, and doesn like milk anyway. How does he know all thisf Can he swear that milk snake does not clandestinely enjoy the udder s fOaming sweets9 Certainly not; he can. not prove his negative. Many a boy has seen the milk snake in the milk mans very act. How will Professor Ditmars dispose of this positive testi- mony of eye-witnessesi Moreover, the milk snake's powers of expansion are as great as those of other snakes and 1t is absurd to say that it can hold only two teaspoonfuls. It can hold quarts and quarts, when undisturbed at milk. ing time. If cows could only talk, they would soon show how little this Profes sor Ditmars knows of this thirst of milk snakes.
 Professor Ditmars says chameleons do not change colors according to their surroundings; that alligators and croco- diles will not bite mems legs of; that whisky is not good for snake bite; that there are no two-headed snakes; that snake cut in two will not unite at sundown; that glass snakes do not break into pieces when struck; that the banded gecko is not poisonous; that the

The President Quoted

A Massachusetts millionaire called on President Roosevelt this week after the regular cabinet meeting, and during the chat leading politician from western state remarked to the president that his state surely would send delegation in favor of MT. Roosevelt to the next Republican national convention.
 A member of the cabinet present ex- pressed the confident opinion that his state would do the same thing.
 ''I tell you, Mir. President" " said the Massachusetts millionaire, "Massachu- setts and other New England states are disposed to insist upon your renomina- tion."
 Nonsense" blurted out MT. Roose- welt, eff l were to accept renomina- tion after what have said on the sub ject, would be historically disgraced. " New York American.

Dainty Meal for a Python

Salome, the python at the New York Geological gardens in Branx park, had meal yesterday much against her will. Salome is twenty-seven feet long, weighs 300 pounds and has thirty inch waist. She is said to be the big. gest snake in captivity. For three months she had refused to eat.
 Yesterday Curator Ditmars prepared two rabbits, chicken, and as nice an assortment of sparrows as a snake would care to see. Ten men lugged Salome into the open, as though she were an animated hose. MT. Ditmars spitted the food on the end of fish pole and saw that it reached its destina- tion, in spite of Salome's protests New York World

MURDERER GETS
LIFE SENTENCE

lsal Beltram, convicted of mur-
der in the first degree for killing
Alfreao Marino at tho Bonnie
Claire mine in Nye county several
months ago, was sentenced to life
mprison ment by Judge O'Brien in
the district court at Tonopah. The
Sun says that while sentence was
being pronounced Beltram sat with
apparently no concern-not mus
Gle twitched, there was not a stir.
The reading Of the sentence to
him was as so much noise, for he
understood it not. He looked the
same after receiving the sentence
as before and the deputy sheriff led
him away and he uttered not even
a sigh. sHe ia unconcerned and ap-
parently does not know what has
befallen him-such is his dense ig-
norance. 1t is said that while the
jury was out with his fate in their
hands he took things calmly and
went to sleep. His apparent un-
concern, his ignorance of things
that go on about him elevate him
but little above the animal. No
doubt prison is the best place for
him.
