BLACKSNAKE COILS
 ABOUT BOYS BODY.
Squeezed Norfolk Lad Into Insensi-
 bility But Was Driven Away.

Norfolk. August 18.-While picking huckleberries on the old Higgins place in the eastern part of the township. Monday, George, the 15year-old son of Charlie Nash, was discovered un- conscious as the result of an encoun- ter with a gigantic blacksnake which coiled itself about the lads body and squeezed him into insensibility.
 Attracted by his cries, the boys en- ployer, John Mahoney, who was in an adjacent field, hurried to the place. At his approach the reptile crept into clump of bushes and disappeared, a careful search for over two hours failing to locate it.
 Nash. who soon regained con sciousness, says that he failed to mo- tice the reptile until it had begun to coil around his legs Mahoney re- ports the animal to have been entire ly black with the exception of an in- distinct ring about it's neck and estf- mates its size as approximately that of mans arm. Local nature stu dents declare that Nash's experience is not unparalleled and that a black snake will invariably attempt the same thing when cornered.

New Haven Road
 May Cut Dividend

New Haven, Aug. 18.-It goes with out saying that the decline in the shares of the New York, New Haven & Hartford to 134, or to a 6 per cent. income basis. is due to apprehension concerning the ability, of the road to continue it's s per cent. dividends. The stockholders have witnessed a cut in the Boston & Maine dividend from 6 per cent. to 4 per cent. and in the Maine Central dividend from 8 per cent. to 6 per cent. and in these trou- blesome times it is but natural that some concern should be felt regarding the per cent. dividend of the New Haven. says the Boston News Bureau to-day.
 We have several times stated posi- lively that nothing had occurred with respect to the earning capacity of the New Haven road and its affiliated feeders which foreshadowed any re- duction in the distribution to stock holders. This statement may be re- iterated with equal force to-day. So lcng as general business is no worse than it is to-day the New Haven stockholders need havee no alarm. If general traffic conditions, however, became more acute. and stay so for any considerable period, the New Hayer directors would be compelled to put their stock on a 6 per cent. basis.

SOCIALIST, NOT ANARCHIST.

Bern, Aug. 1S-Much modification is felt in Switzerland because so dis tinguished a man as Prince Kropotkin has been driven from the country by the narrow-mindedness of the au- thorities of the Canton Ticino, where the Prince srecently went for his health. Many years ago, when the now aged and infirm Russian was editing La Revolte" at Geneva, he was expelled from Switzerland on ac- count of the revolutionary tendencies of the paper. Opinion concerning him has greatly changed now, how ever, and taking it for granted that there would be no further objection to his presence, he went to Locarno. in the Canton Ticino, on his doctor s advice. Discovering that he was there, the Canton authorities notified the government, whereupon the Prince left the country to avoid a second ex- putsion. In government circles it is stated that he would readily have been granted permission to remain, had he asked for it. Modern anar- chists consider the Prince socialistic rather than anarchistjc in his views.

FALL CROP OF
 WILD CARROT RIPE
Weed Grows As We'll as If it Were
 Not Outlawed.

The wild carrots are ripening theil annual crop of seed. The prevalence of the weed is evidence that the law is disregarded and the question is of ten raised as to why the law was en- acted some thirty or forty years ago
 It's enforcement is a thing unheard of save that the act is sometimes in- voked to the annoyance of a country grand juror. Some farmer with a feud will complain to the grand juror that his neighbor is allowing wild carrot to go to seed and ask for pros ecution. The grand juror, if he is wise, looks about a bit and finds the plant growing on the compIainant's farm, calls his attention to the fact and thus end the complaint.
 There is really no great reason why the weed should be outlawed, because it is easily exterminated, there being many other forms of weeds that give the farmer more trouble. It is not desirable in hay but, if the land is rich enough to produce large crop of hay the wild carrot has no chance and blowing Ne land puts an effectual end to it, in any event and farms in a high state of cultivation are not troubled with the plant.
 The wild carrot has it's uses. being found, as part of the floral decora- tions at the quiet June weddings, pretty weddings" ''very pretty wed, OIHSS, QuICl IIOiuS WSouIuSS, Siliu the like which the editors and copy readers meet with alarming frequency for matter of thirty days every year for the wild carrots umbel is grace ful when it bears it's flowers and it bears them just in time for the June weddings. Just now the umbels are closed up and are at the seeding point and the plant is by no means graceful, especially when it grows by the roadside and is covered with dust as most vegetation is just now.
 The plant is well connected and bears about the same relation to the cultivated carrot as an ordinary work ingman does to J. P. Morgan and, as has already been said, it is not es- pecially harmful. It is pretty plen- ty. There is a fine crop of wild car rot seed this fall, it having matur red a little earlier than usual because of the drouth and there will undoubt- edly be another good crop next year.

tary things. that, "She is a woman
who has accomplished hard task Of
Colored settlement work by putting
her heart in It and her life under it,
and wrought wonderful results. Be-
ginning her work for the University

a small house, by her energy and
sacrifice she has made a great build

despairing mothers and children Of

a monument to the devotion Of How
ards true representative Miss Eloise

a book recently published In Boston

considerable space to his accomplish
ments and progressive nature.

his vast audierce for permitting Tus-

INSANE HOSPITALS LACK TUBER
CULosIs Acoo1EMoDA-
TIoNS.
Deaths From Consumption Double Or
binary ts-oniy one-Third Pro
vide for Diseased.

Out of more than 225 public hospi;
tails for the insane, with a population
of fully 10000, only 20, or less than
one-third Of them, make any provision
for their tubereulous inmates, and this
too, when the percentage of deaths
from this disease is very high. This
is the substance of q statement made
today by the National Association fol-
the Study and Prevention of Tuber,
culOsis.
Seventy hospitals in twenty-eight
states, providing all told about $3.50
beds for tuberculous insane patients,
sums up the provision made for this
class of sufferers.
"When it is considered" the Ma.
tional Association says, "that the per.
eentage of deaths from tuberculosis
among the insane is from so to 200
per cent higher than among the gen.
eral population, according to the in.
stitution, the need for special provi.
sion is apparent" Autopsies made in
New York State Hospitals and else
where show that tuberculosis is an &C
tive disease in about 20 per cent of
the cases, as compared with about one
half that percentage in unnoTmal pop
ulstion. Superintendents of various
hospitals in ali parts of the United
States testify that among the insane
in institutions, tuberculosis is mani
fest in from 20 to IS cases in every
thousand. In the country as a whole
about 10 to IS people per 1000 are af-
hieted with the disease.
Because of the habits Of the insane,
and the difficulty in teaching many Of
them the rules of cleanliness, the Ma
tiOnal Association says that separate
buildings for the tuberculosis should
be provided in every hospital for the
insane where tuberculosis is at all pre-
valent. In many eases, where insane
persons through outdoor sanatorium
life have been cured of tuberculosis
their minds have also been helped, and
some have been discharged as mentally
sound, who would otherwise have died,
both insane and tubereulous.
