The Hawaiian Islands have always
been famed for their freedom from
snakes. People and animals could
wander with impunity through val
leys and over hills and mountains. An
Importation arrived on the stea amship
Alameda from California that might
have put an end to such delightful
serenity. This was the arrival Of three
Himsy boxes containing fourteen large
living snakes, FIVE Of them rattlers.
Under a rule such animals arriving In
the territory OF Hawaii are ordered to
be Immediately destroyed or deported.
"In the destruction Of these snakes" "
says the narrator, I'VE had a surpris-
ing experience. placed the boxes in
one of our fumigating chambers and
applied a charge of double density Of
hydrocyanic acid gas. The snakes
were still alive at the end Of fifteen
minutes, whereas If they had been
warm blooded animals they would
have succumbed In a less number Of
seconds. They were again shut up,
and quadruple charge Of the same
deadly gas was administered. At the
end of one hour and half the fumi
gator was opened, and several of the
snakes still showed signs Of life. We
then immersed them in 95 per cent al
cohol. That soon put an end to their
venomous existence" - Youths Com

What Was MIssina.

Dr. Watson Qan Maclaren) used to
tell story about his trip to the Holy

pleasurable anticipation.
AS he was nearing the center Of his

After such greetings as two English

Well Placed Generosity.

In 1885 Liszt went on tour In the
French provinces. He arrived at the
little town of L. to give a concert, as
announced. But the inhabitants ap-
peared to take but little interest In
musical matters. for when the musi-
clan appeared on the platform he
found himself face to face with an au-
dience numbering exactly seven per-
sons. Liszt stepped very calmly to the
front, and, bowling respectfully to the
array of empty benches, he delivered
himself as follows:
Ladies' and gentlemen, l feel ex-
tremely Hattered by your presence
here this evening. but this room is not
at all suitable; the air Is literally sti-
fling. Will you be good enough to &C.
company me to my hotel, where l will
have the plano conveyed? We shall be
quite comfortable there. and will &c
through the whole Of my program"
The offer was unanimously accepted
and Liszt treated his guests not only
to a splendid concert, but an excellent
supper into the bargain. Next day
when the illustrlous yirtuosO appeared
to give his second concert the hall was
not large epstaEh TO contain the crowd
which claimed admittance.

Mr.. Osborn walked down to the
Kelley meeting and was one of the
interested spectators.
Osborn after paying his compli-
ments to Mr.. Kelley In a very gra-
cious manner, asked for moments

called attention to the fact that less
than six months ago a Lansing auto
mobile plant refused TO sell out for

total assessed valuation OF the entire
capital city. Mr.. Osborn using the

Mr.. Crborn also called attention to
the fact that the entire state will be

WILLIE HOPPE AND
 N '. HEIRESS ElOPE

Baltimore Dec. 15.-''willie' Hoppe, the "boy wonder champion billiard player of the world, was revealed as a hero of romance yesterday, when he eloped from New York with the heiress of Thomas w. Walsh. a veal thy clothing manufactures. who lives at No. Al West Ninety-fifth street.
 Hoppe never made such a run" in the nineteen years of his life as met Miss Alice Walsh. by secret ap- pointment, and with her friend, Miss May Maxwell. of No. 986 Amsterdam avenue, took train to this city, where they were married at the Cathedral, where Cardinal Gibbons of1lciates. The ceremony was per- formed by the Rev. F. c. Gavan, chancellor of the Archdiocese
 The real trouble, however, came after the wedding. Burton T.. Manks, manager for Hoppe, immediately got on the telephone and told MT. Walsh, in New York, what had happened.
 MT. Walsh was furious. His daugh- ter had left the house in the morning saying she was going to do her Christmas shopping early, but her father never dreamed a husband was one of her prospective bargains. Ac- cording to report, he told Mank some things over the phone that made the manager tremble. But last night messages of congratulations were re- ceived by the young couple, and it is believed MT. Walsh's anger was due only to the fact that the couple Kept |. The romance of Hoppe and Miss Walsh began on the day. about three years ago, when the young billiard expert rescued Miss Walsh from drowning in the surf at Atlantic City.

IN WOMEN'S FASHIONS
 SEES MEN'S DOWNFALL

Elgin, TIL, Dec 15-'Present day fashions, making the dress of our women scandalOus and in fact solici- tous, Is responsible for the downfall of many men," said the Rev. Father Ignatius, a Passionist priest from Cincinnati who is conducting a week s mission at St. Mary's church here.
 Continuing he said:
 "Women and girls appear upon the street, in street cars and public places in such attire tha. their appearance is an invitation to men to commit sin. Yet these women call themselves la dies.
 'sThe flirt is one of the worst dia- bolical agents in existence. The scan dal spreader is worse than murder CT. Women alone are not to blame for the spreading of scandal. Men who stand on street corners using vul- gar language in the presence of wom- en are mere brutes. They are beasts.
 Parents. who by their bad example. their neglect of religion, lead not only their own children but others away from Christ, are emissaries of the devil. Many a father and mother, bent and gray haired today, is reap ing the harvest of his or her evil example, with a broken heart over the misdeeds Of their children.
 '"The reason that many of our young men and women go to the dogs to- day is because of the bad example set them by their parents
 - The priest raised his voice vigor- ously against race suicide also.
