tons brought by the trustees under Mr..

before the court is the effect which this

The shaker" church, which il hold

Qninault Indian reservation, a few miles
north Of Gray's Harbor, has had a
marked influence on the lives OF the
redmen OF the north Pacific coast, and
for the most part it has been exerted
without the aid cf white people. The
religion appears TO be a combination
of Christianity and the ancient beliefs
Of the Indians. Its origin is a matter
of dispute. After the Indians had re-
ceived instruction for a few years from
the Christian missionaries it seems that
they took notion they should have

For many years little work has been
done among the Indians by white Christ

GIANT SNAKE CLIMBS UP

New York. March 16.-Rex, the
king python of Director Hornaday S
big collection, caused enough excite
ment yesterday in the Bronx zoo 70
last all summer, and incidentally
showed that a snake is not always
chloroformed when you think 1t Is.
The giant reptile had been rest
less for several days, and Yesterday
Head Keeper Snyder made an exam
nation, which disclosed large abb
scess on the upper jaw. The sixteen
feet of snake was carried to the nos
pital room, and after its Jaws had
been unhinged and its mouth stul1ed
with cotton and big wooden blocR
to prevent it from using its fangs, IL
was given what was considered
sufficiently large dose of chloroforh
Then the surgical work began, wnen
suddenly Rex awakened, and with
one herculean upheaval tore MIN
self loose from the five men who
were holding him. The next instant
the snake had made its way out the
door and into the giraffe pen. Syca-
more, the taller of the two giraffes.
was in the way, and the snake pro-
ceeded to embrace him. In a twink
ling 1t had twined itself about Syca-
mor's legs, and was racing up his
neck. There was no danger OF 1ts
biting, as its jaws were not only I'M
hinged, but securely gagged. the
giraffe, however, knew nothing
about this safety arrangement, and
gave evidence of his extreme alarm
by kicking as only thing on stills
can kick. and biting at his tormen-
tor. Finally the attendants unwound
the reptile, and took It back to the
hospital where the surgical opera
tion was completed.

According to the reports of the
federal agricultural department for
1903, just recently announced,
there were 8 ,505.191, 900 pounds of
cotton, and 2,695. $4,000 pounds of
wool raised in the world, We have
something over ,500,000,000 peo-
pie on the globe, which gives us a
supply of 81 pounds of cotton and
IL pounds of wool per capita. Com
bined this supply will not exceed
one ordinary suit of clothes per an
mum per capita and he who posses
SEES larger wardrobe must do so at
the expense of a naked barbarian.
We have silk and other fibres used
for clothing, but a portion OF the
cotton and wool goes into rope, bag
cling, carpets and other household
and commercial articles and II is
likely that the figures above quoted
furnish an average allotment per
capita for clothing textiles available
for wear. Both of these fibres are
necessities of the human race and
Texas is a worlds factor in their
production. Nature has given us the
corner stones of an empire and IT is
up to the people of Texas TO build
up a civilization that surpasses any
thing on the globe.
