Snake a Public Benefactor.

An account of n thrilling snake
fight at the Serotherapic institute,
near San Paulo, was given a few days
ago by famous French surgeon,
Professor pozzi, on his return from
Brazil. There is in Brazil a great ser.
pent named the mussurana. which in
offensive itself to mankind. has as Its
mission to kill and devour venomous
reptiles. A huge mussurana wal
brought out for the ediHcatlon of Pro

pent was set at large In the room
Then came the fight. The mussuranR
is by nature exempt from the polsor

OF the combatants. In Its opponent
the mussurana found n tough Gus

serpent was slain and duly swallowed

SENATE LESS ALGUST
 THAN IN FORMER YEARS
Individual Membership is Below That
 of Fifty Years Ago.

It is not altogether surprising that Senator O'Gorman of New York should begin to feel that he gave up the substance for the shadow in re- signing his long term, high salaried judicial office of dignity and power for seat in the United States senate, says a Washington letter to the Pro- violence Journal.
 The genial and brillian Irishman who did this to become the collea- gue of Elihu Root is not the first man to find out after it is too late that political office, even of the ex- alted character of a United States senatorship, is not always, to put it plainly, what it is cracked up to be. Thomas B. Reed is reputed to have said once that no man ought to come to congress unless he were able or so rich or so conspicuOusly both that he would stand out above his fellows as a peower either in the halls of legisla- ton or in the no less attractive social world of the capital.
 Although Judge O'Gorman has had no opportunity to demonstrate his ability since he came to Washington it is generally believed that he pos sesses it in a very high degree. That is his reputation in New York, and he looks like a man intellectually above his fellows. What, apparent ly, has disturbed his peace of mInd and caused him to doubt whether he did not make poor exchange m leaving the bench for the senate IS that he has found out what has long been the belief of those who have had occasion to know that while the Unit ed States senate as a legislative body has perhaps maintained its exclusive ly high standard, its membership, con- sidered individually, does not measure up to the standard of 100, fifty or twenty-five years ago. MT. OGorman has been in the senate less than five months, and already the bloom is off the peach.
 It was Jim" Nesmith, the illit:rate miner and stage driver. who came to the United States senate from oregon soon after the territory was admitted to the union. who was responsible for the famous story that has been at- tached to the personality Of a thous- and public men since that time. when Seuator-elect Nesmith came to Wash ington he was so modest and had such q poor opinion of his own merits that he was actually afraid to appear m the senate chamber. So for a day or two he sat up in the gallery with ms wife After looking the statesmen over he said t. her again and again: When I think of my limitations and of the august character of this body I cannot for the life. of me understand how I got here"
 A month or two later Nesmith. who was personally very popular man. a good story-teller and mixer from Mix erville. said to his wife after he had become acquainted with his colleagues

TEMPE
STREET LIGHT SYSTEM
 BEING INSTALLED

Work was commenced yesterday morning on the erection of the building in which the transformer will be in stalled to be used for the street lights that will be put in here in a very short time Commencing next Monday new poles will be put in on Mill avenue and all other streets wherever the lights will be installed. As soon as that part of the work is done work will then be be- gun on the lamps and it can Dc safely predicted that by the first of october Tempe will have as fine street light ing system as any town of its size in Arizona. There will be twenty five lights burning when the juice" is turn ed on for the first time. All this has been brought about by the Merchants Association. The lighting of the streets has been considered by the council for some time and it was decided that it was impossible to install the lights for at least a year yet, but the Merchants Association said that We must have the lights before a year and put up the money. This is not all the good that this association is doing for the town, as they are doing far more than any ,other organization ever dreamed of doing. and will continue to do the best for the town that possibly can be done. All get in the band wagon and boost for Tempe and vicinity and make Tempe one of the best towns in the territory.

MAN IS \ VERY ADAPTABLE BRUTE
He Lives in Extreme of Heat and
 Cold impossible for Animals.

Plants and animals cannot exist m temperatures far higher or lower than to which they have become ac- customed. while man moves rom one extreme to the other with, for the msot part. only little physical dis comfor. says the New York Sun. Ex- pIorers will visit the sands of Africa and the bleakness of the Artic Circle and return to normal environments even improved in physical condition
 Science reasons that the lowest temperatures at the earth's surface are not found directly at the poies. but at some distance to the south of the North pole and to the north of the South pole. Likewise the greatest degree of heat is not. as might be supposed. to be found at the equator. but prevails at some distance to the north and tO the sOuh of that imagniary line.

FROM LAWRENCE, MASS.

Some time ago mention was made in these columns that Hyder Bros. of this place had been given a large amount of space in a Syrian paper, The Mirror of the West" published in New York City. In an interview with John Fly der yesterday he stated that up to the present time he had received just thir- ty-two letters, all of which were in quiries in regard to Tempe and the Salt river valley, the letters coming from all parts of the United States. He also stated that yesterday morning he had received a letter from two men in Law renee, Mass, distant relatives of his who said that they would leave there in a few days, so that they are now on their way to this section of the coun- try. They expect to look over the val ley and if conditions are satisfactory they may go into business here.

DEATH OF CHILD.

The little months old baby of MT. and Mrs. w. R. c. Matchma, which was badly scalded few days ago. died about o'clock Sunday evening. The funeral will be held today in Phoenix. The readers will remember that the little one had crawled into the kitchen near the stove unnoticed by an older sister who was working near the stove. The older sister picked up the tea ket- tie and in some manner dropped the kettle, about two-thirds of the water falling either on the child or on the floor near it. It was badly scalded all over its right side and was one large blister.

The coldest place on the earth's surface of which there is authentic record is in Siberia. The lowest tenn ,erature ever recorded in the open air was 90 degrees below zero CFah- renheit) at Werchajansk. Central Si- beria. Jan. 15. 1885.
 The highest temperature of which there is an authentical record is 124 degrees above zero (FahrenheiD in Algeria, northern Africa. July r.. 1S79 These places of extreme heat and extreme cold give a range of temperature covering the whole in habitable world of 214 degrees. or two degrees more than from zero to the boiling point.
 In the United States the lowest temperature ever rec ,-,lel in winter is 64 degrees below zero in North Dakota, and the highest ever record ed in summer is 115 degrees above zero in Arizona. This gives a total range of 179 degrees within about 1000 miles.
 There is an unathenticated report from Aumale. an outpost of the Algerian bad lands. which gives temperature record in the open air of 172 degrees above zero (Fahrenheit). This, if correct. exceeds by 4S degrees that of the highest on record. It tS also said that the temperature at this place rarely gets down to 140 de- grees. On one or two occasions It dropped to 120 degrees and the na- tives shivered with cold. Strange as it may seem. the death rate of French soldiers stationed at this post is low CT that at more notherly places hay ing equable temperatures.
 People who inhabit these places of extreme heat and cold are found to be exceptionally healthy and live to ripe old age
 While men in all parts of the world make their homes in these exception ally hot or cold places and move from 6ne to the other without any apparent physical discomfort. it is found that animals or plants which would flourish in one could not sur vive in the other.

MESA WEATHER.

The thermometer toys with the hundred mark these days and those having the price are Hitting to the coast or to the mountains. old timers are full of predictions-one of which, generally agreed upon, is that there will be a few very warm days, followed by rain storm, between this date and the 20th of the month. Also that the fall season will start in early and the winter will be much colder than the last one was. Fore casting is an uncertain calling and it remains to be seen how close the predictions come to be fulfilled. In the meantime, the local observer gives the report as he finds it recorded:
