LIVELY TIME WITH PYTHON
Crew on British Gunboat Has Exciting
Experience When Reptile

once when the British gunboat Rat.
tier was in eastern waters the crew
had a lively time looking after a
python on board that got loose.
Besides the python there was on
BOARD a big Borneo orangoutang. The
python, which was 10 or 20 feet in
length, having dined heartily on a
deer about three weeks before, began
to feel its appetite returning, and in
searching about it's box for a place Of
egress found n side in bad repair
IL did not take the python long to
come through the weak part, and
quite un%observed, it began its peram'
bulations around the boat.

a lew yards off, the big snake invited
itself to a dinner very much to its
taste, 1t would have been all over

The latter was up the masthead be-
fore any mischief could be done, and
a lieutenant, the proprietor Of the
o~rangoutang, the quartermaster, and a
member of the crew flung themselves
upon the hungry python-one at the
head, another at the tail. and a third
in the middle.
Then the fun began, for the python
wanted to get one Of the aggressors
nicely in its coils, and the nep were
determined 1t should be kept out In
something as nearly approaching q

SAYS the Lead Belt Nei0s: $50
far as we are able to learn there is
little cause for complaint on the
part of the people about any cleo
ton irregularities in Flat River
this time. We compliment the
bosses, foremen and Office men of
the Doe Run Lead Company for
keeping somewhat within Accord
ance of law, and while one of
their number was made a Judge of
the election and brought both beer
and whiskey inside the polling
place, his actions were, SO far as
reported, reasonably fair. Voters
were assured prior to the election
that everything possible would be
done to preserve the secrecy of the
ballot. and this promise has been
faithfully kept for the first time,
we believe, in the history of elec-
tons in Flat River"
