Treasure Trove Law In England.

In England treasure troye belongs to
the crown. According to the law, II
any one finds hidden treasure and con
ceals it for his own use he is liable to
fine and Imprisonment. 1t used to be
hanging matter. However, it may
be some encouragement to English
treasure seekers, if any such there be
in these enlightened days, to know
that the laws. Of treasure trove only
apply to such as is discovered by
accident Treasure discovered by sys-
tematic search would not come within
this description; neither would finds
discovered by astrological or cabalistic
sciences or by the potent influence OF

FRENCH SCORN PENSIONS
Not Two Per Cent Of Eieibles Have
Applied Under Law--17o0,-
600 Beneficiariss

Paris, June 6--Not 9 per cent Of
the 100000 Frenchmen and French
Women VINO are entitled to register
for benefits under the national ola
age pension law, adopted last year,
have done SO. The working class
whom the law was designed to aid
have as a body ignored 1t.
Oct of the 10000 persons at Rem
mes coming within the operations OF
the statute 300 have taken papers;
at Limoges Is out Of 10000. In Mar
settles about $1,000 have applied out
Of possible 10000, and at Eper-
nay 1000 out 5000.
Law is Compulsory.
The ministry of lobor has announc-
ed that since the law is compulsory
those abstaining must ultimately
comply and that they are only plac-
ing themselves at disadvantage BY
delay. The mayors in many mum
cipalties have written the officers OF
the trades asking their influence in
persuading registration.
One principal reason for treating
! the old age pension scheme with In.
difference is that the pensions be
ginning at 65 years of age are small
be entitled to $40 a year. The per
son who reaches G5 after the tenth
year of the laws operation will re
ceive about s22, in the thirtieth yeai
of the law the pension will be 1890
in the fortieth $500. The highest
possible pension received by those
who begin contributing at 16 will
be about $S1 a year.
Contributions Are Small.
The contributions likewise ar,
small, Men pay 1920 and boys IN
| der Is 80 cents. Employers pay the
same sums, and the state also con
tributes.
| The general council OF the depart
ment of Haute Vienne mas voted u
pay the contributions, of all work
men in the civil administration ant
repay the contributions already mad,
| by such workmen. This course, 1t il
expected, will be followed by othe
departments.
j Another reason for the refusal Il
accept the law is the fact that people
doubt the governments ability to car,
for the money properly. The pea
SAINTS particularly prefer to have tn
| money in an old stocking to riskin,
/ It with the government, to be repai

In "a Century Of English Ballads"

delightful story Of Stephen Incledon,
an eminent tenor Of other days, whose
singing Of BLACK Eyed Susan" was
peculiarly to the peoples taste. While
staying ut a country inn Incledon had
quarreled during the evening with az
army officer. He imagined he had
closed the controversy by going OF to
bed but the officer, left downstairs
to brood over his wrongs, thought eth

bedroom he found the singer fast
asleep When he succeeded in wax

TEXAS MAN MAKES LIVING BY
CAPTURING DANGEROUS

Sometimes Captures 100 Pounds
Snakes In Day--Good
Demand.

San Antonio, Texas, June Hunt
! ing snakes for living may not be
an occupation that is really pleasant
in all its phases and 1t may moi De
attractive to all classes of men. How.
ever, there is one man in this city, a
Mexican, who has made snake nunt.
ing a business for a number OF years.
He does not confine himself TO the
harmless variety but makes a spec
ialty Of catching the cotton1nouth
moccasin and the rattlesnake. These
are caught alive and sold to dealer
in snakes, whose place of business Il
in West Commerce street The Mex
lean snake hunter has two methods
of catching a RATHER. If the snake is
large, he places a forked stick on it's
neck and holds it down until ne can
get hold of ii in such manner n
to drop it into sack. But If it is
small rattley, a stick is not uscI,
The huntor watches the reptile nn.ll
it coils ready to strike and then with
swift movement of the head
catches the snake just below the
head, grips it tightly and slips it into
sack. While catching water mecca
sins, however. he usually goes bare
foot and when the moccasin Is too
large to be caught with the hand it
is laSsoed with a small lariat at
tacned to the end of stick. Some
times it is thrown over the head of the
tile swim through the loop, At other
times 1t is thrown over int htad of the
swimming snake with as much accu-
racy as a skilled marksman shoots
with a gun. In the winter, when
snakes are alternating, the snake
hunter finds hole and thrusts stick
down it. Then he sits down to watch.
If the stick moves he knows there is
something below and proceeds at once
to dig out the snake. But IL there is
no movement after watching for lhalr
hour or SO, the hunter seeks another
hole and repeats the test with stick.
1t is not an uncommon thing for this
snake hunter to bag hundred
pounds of snakes in one day. These,
if they be good specimens, bring
twenty-five cents per pound, alive,
While this the only snake hunter in"
this city, a number of men now in the
Kingsvllle country, near the Gull,
are engaged In the business and fol
low it all the year round. Recently
600 pounds of rattlesnakes were ship
ped into this city by express from
one snake hunter in the Kingsville
country, the man having made an u1-
usual catch in one week. From the
dealer here, rattlesnakes arc shipped
to all parts OF the country for eA-
hibition purposes, and in few in
stances shipments haze been made to
other parts of the world. The Texas
rattler is deadly venomous and has to
be handled with care. SO far as is
known, but one rattlesnake hunter
has ever died from the effects OF a
bite while capturing a snake. 1t is
not an uncommon thing in some OF
the wilder parts Of the country to
capture a snake having twelve or
more rattles; showing that the rep.
tile is thirteen years, or more, old
since the first rattle appears when
the snake is one year Of age.
