elLA MONSTERS INCREASING.
Whether Bite Of this Lizard is Fatally
Poisonous to Man Unsettled.

"Naturalists who recently visited
the Mojaye desert in Arizona say that
there has been an increase in the num-
ber Of gila monsters in that region"
said DR.. A. b. Cedron of Prescott,
Ariz.
These lizards are of great interest
to naturalists, for in spite of investi
cations authorities still differ as to
whether the bite of gila monster Is
fatally poisonous. have had several
instances come under my observation
where men have been bitten by gila
monsters, but none ever died. In the
case of gila monster biting a guinea
pig, however, the poison was fatal a
few minutes after the guinea pig had
been bitten. The natives of the
Southwest, particularly the Indians of
Mexico, sincerely believe that the
bite of gila is fatal 20 human be-
ing and the lizard is held in much awe
by them.
"It is likely, however. that this fear
is occasioned largely by the repulsive
appearance Of the reptile. The head
is very prominent, comprising about
one-fifth of the total length of the
body and like the back it is thickly
covered with yellow and black tinted
tubercles It's skin is very tough, and
although the bones Of the tail are
fragile this part of the reptile is very
strong, it being possible for the mon
ste to raise itself and balance the
body on the tip Of the tail, thus en-
abling it to climb rocks and steep as
cents. There is no doubt that the
teeth lead to glands containing poison.
1t is very slow in its movements, but
It is not timid like other reptiles. IL
one attempts to strike the gila with a
stick 1t will grasp the weapon in its
Jaws like a dog does, and when an
gered 1t emits it's breath in a success
sion Of quick gasps. 1t is supposed
that the breath of the gila has a drug
like effect on insects, and as it can be
detected at a considerable distance it
is believed that this is the way it
catches it's food"

Cure for Felon.

A sure cure to prevent a felon
coming on the finger is to soak some
absorbant cotton in pure alcohol,
wind the finger with it and then
draw over the whole of it a glove

that If this is done twice in twenty
four hours for couple of days, it is
a sure preventative of the felon

Warren S. Stone, secretary of the
American Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers, surprised many of
his hearers at the third Present
Problem dinner at the Murray Hill
Lyceum, New York City, by coming
out unreservedly for the open shop"
if a closed shop involved forcing
men into the unions. He said this
thing of trying to force men into an
organization against their wills was
un-American and contrary to the
spirit of the American Constitution.
The stand, unexpected as it evident
ly was, was literally applauded.
MIR. Stone, who had been asked to
speak in the place of John Mitchell,
Unexpectedly called out of the city,
was introduced by the toastmaster,
E. Stag Whitten, as the man who a
few years ago increased the wages
of the American locomotive engineers
$17,000,000 in a single year. Mr..
Stone said that his twenty-five years
in the cab of an engine had not lent
themselves to the training of an af-
terdinner speaker, and he feared he
would have to be brief.
Il represent" he said. $500
union engineers, but it does not
matter to me whether you believe in
unions or not. You are, at least, in
terested in these men whom | rep
resent because to them you trust
the lives of all whom you hold dear. :"
The speaker said it would be diff
fcult to fix the amount of money
which could properly be called the
living wage" 1t should be enough
to enable man and family to con-
form to the American standard of
living, which he took to mean keep
ing the children in school, and the
women of the family out of the
sweatshops, and good clothing and
wholesome food.
Il am sure" he continued, that
organized labor has improved living
conditions, and will continue to do
so. for the labor union is here to
stay.
But | do not believe in forcing
men to join a union. If a man
wants to join, all right, but it is con-
trary to the principles of free gov
ernment and the Constitution of the
United States to do so to try to make
him join. We of the engineers work
willingly side by side with other
engineers every day who do not be-
long to our union, though they enjoy
without any objection on our part
the advantages which we have OBJ
tanned. Some of them we would not
have in the union, the others we
cannot get. What / say is, make
the union so good that they will
want to join

GIee Clubs to Give Competitive
Concert Next Month.

IOWA CITY, Ia, Nov. 25.-(Special)-
An intercollegiate song is the latest "ath-
letic" sport that is to be undertaken by
schools Of Iowa. The idea originated this
year from Drake university at Des Moines
and has eliminated in the plan to have
three schools, Ames, Iowa and Drake uni
verslties, send glee clubs to Fosters
opera house at Des Moines, Ia, during the
latter part Of December and there is a song
fest to determine which university ranks
highest in the art of voice culture The
glee club Of the university Of Iowa has
already received an invitation to the unique
event and the club and officers have ac-
cepted. The universty's club starts soon
on tour Of northern Iowa and western
Iowa and following an engagement which
the club has incurred at Marshalltown it
will drop down to Des Moines to partioi-
pate in the singing contest.
Judges have not been decided upon, nor
other official arrangements made, but
all preliminary plans have been formulated
and prospects are bright for an unusually
interesting contest. II the affair proves
a success this year it is very probable
that it will be continued annually with the
possibility of other schools being admitted
The University Of Iowa's glee club this
year is one of the best OF such organIza-
tions that the institution has been able
to boast Of for many years.
