Refuse to Give Up Possession of
BeIOit Farmers House.
Twenty Black Reptiles Killed,
But Are Not Missed.
EAT THE BABY'S FOOD
Mother Finds Them Sharing in
Her ChiId's Lunch.
Stick" Coils Around Waist of
Enraged Farmer.

Beloit, Kan, Sept. 28-When Theo-
dore Herman, farmer living near
here reached home his wife told him
that she had been driven out of the
house by blacksnakes who had invaded
it and taken possession of every part of
the stru-ture.
We'll. I'll bet theren be the biggest
snake cleaning you ever saw said
Theodore as he seized a nearby stick
and started for the door.
Before he had taken half a dozen
steps, however, the club had coiled
about his arm, kissing and twisting
to free itself from his grasp. 1t didn't
nave much trouble freeing itself
That is why DR.. Crumbine is to be
asked for information as to what is
the best, most sanitary and perfectly
legal way to kill blacksnakes. Theo-
dore and his wife are staying with
Mrs. Herman'S parents meanwhile, the
snakes having refused to give up pos
session.
Twenty Dlacksnakes have been killed
in the house which is of stone con-
struction but the supply seems mex
haustible. AS fast as they are killed
others seem to arrive as if by magic
to take their places. The theory is that
the recent cold weather drove the
snakes into the grounu and they found
their way into the cellar. The last
few warm days have brought them out
again and they found their way into
the house of which they refuse to be
diSpOsSeSsed.
Mrs. Herman discovered the invasion
Of the reptiles. She was preparing to
go out for the day and had her baby
in the gocart enjoying a bowl of milk.
She heard the youngster disappearing
strenuously and investigating found
two large snakes in the cart deVour-
ing the milk.
Nearly dead from fright and the
shock she rescued the baby and pre-
parations for going out were not need
lessly delayed. Reaching into her hat
box she pulled out another snake in
stead of her headgear. She started
for the door and four more snakes
were hanging over it. She then seized
the baby, escaped through another door
and spent the day with neighbor.

PASTE DIAMOND KING SUED.
Years Ago l.. H. GoIdson Made For
tune Selling 'sPaste'' Diamonds.

Chicago. Sept. 2s.-Louis H. Go1dson.
the one time paste diamond king"
who operated a hundred stores in vari-
Gus cities in which every sort of cheap
gem was sold and who is said to have
left the country in 1905 owing creditors
nearly $500, 900. returned to Chicago.
AS he finished his first meal. Bailiff
Scott of the municipal court served
notice on him that he had been sued
for $44375 on a note held by NJ. Myron
Goldsoll, a cousin.
GoldsoI1's career as a gem merchant
covered the United States, Canada
England. Constantinop1e, Cuba and Ar
gentine. While his business centered in
Chicago. he paid. to manufacturing
companies in the east, chiefly in Provi-
dence, hundreds of thousands of dol
lars annually for the cheap Jewels
which he distributed.
Goldson started stores in many cities
and finally his String reached from
New York to San Francisco. Business
in false gems finally became dull and
Goldson, who had started to invade
Canada with stores, started for Eng
land to recuperate his fortune. Before
leaving he borrowed the money for
which suit was brought yesterday from
his cousin, giving stock in one of his
companies as security.
The company failed soon afterwards.
