"Send in a riot CALL" he gasped,
and the second man hurried to the

"Call the FIRE department. he

MADE HIS MEAL ON SNAKE
Fight That Resulted DIsastrousiy for
Reptile Known AZ Monarch
of Desert.

A western writer, let US hope not
nature faker, saw a large rattle
snake glide out on large rock, and
tells what became of the reptile:
He seemed to search around like a
dog for place to suit his snakeship
and then stretched himself out to
enjoy the warmth. | was thinking
it was worth while to heaye stone
at the monster, when a big shadow
swept down and a hawk nearly
caught him mapping, but not quite.
The snake sprang his rattle and
coiled himself ready for attack,
while the hawk lowered round, ma
king a dash now on the right and
now on the left. 1t was quite an
interesting skirmish; but at last the
snake made spring and apparently
failed to strike. Before he could
recoil himself the hawk seized him
with both talons close behind the
head.
In fact, the bird had him on the
neck and swept into the air, while
he struggled and twisted. Up and
up into the blue went the bird in
wide, circling sweeps, until the
struggling reptile hung limp and
lifeless. Then the victor came down
to earth again and, alighting on a
neighboring tree, made his meal on
the snake.

RLOOD-STAINED ALBANIA.

Into rugged Albania the dove of
peace seldom ventures. Only luke
warm welcome at best awaits her
among the mountains of that dis
tracted land. and when at rare inter-
walls she alights on the Acroceraunian
promontory or perches timidly on
the high plateau of Janina she soon
takes wing again. There must be
something in the air of the Adriatic
that inclines those that breathe it to

are in a formative period, in which they
may develop good habits, and for infrac-

involves the idea of adjustment of conduct
