The fight has been a long and

state that the end has come to

The result of the primary

They have so expressed them

state would be more ably repre-
sented in the senate by either of
them, they bow to the will Of the
majority and accept the result
gracefully. The people have
spoken, we accept the result,
although our judgment placed us
on the side of the minority in the
fight just ended.
The selection of Bilbo as lieu

Snake Father Angry.

New York. -F0rCy-elgnt Da.
bies were Matched by Big Annie,
the anaconda in the Bronx Zoo.
q few days ago, and each baby
measured three and one-half feet
in length yesterday.
Big Annie is twenty-five feet
long and thirty-six inches in d.
ameter. AS she turned her tre-
menduous head and gazed at her
family she met the gaze of the
python, which is twenty-four
feet in length and the father Of
the forty-eight babies. The py-
thon was furious. He shot out
his tongue in anger and glided
across the cage toward the forty
eight babies. Big Annie saw
him coming, and she knew he
was bent on murder and a hearty
meal.
AS he came close she struck
and the python fell back. Then
on he came again and again. Big
Annie was equal to the attack.
The baby snakes squirmed under
their mother and all ah0nt hnr
The fight was becoming more
and more furious when the keep
er appeared. He yelled for all
the other keepers in the shake
house.
Not a man of them dared en-
ter the cage. The python was
lashing his tail until the bars Of
the cage seemed to bend every
time it struck them. Big Annie
was too wise to lash. One blow
from her tail would have killed
a dozen or two of her offspring.
She only raised her head and
warded off the attack of her hus
band and the children's jealous
daddy. One of the keepers got
a prong through the tor of the
cage and jammed it down over
the head of the python. A sec
ond fastened his squirming body
a few feet down and gradually
he was made a prisoner. Then
Big Annie with a hiss drew her.
self to a further end of the cage
and her f~orty-eight children fol-
lowed her.
While the python was held
down a partition was arranged
between him and his wife and
his children, and later he was
persuaded into another cage and
locked up.
Big Annie came here from
Trinidad and was a present to
New York from R. r. Mole. She
is one of the biggest snakes in
captivity.

Mine Explosions Have Been
Ordered.

In view VI the IdCC IudC d Luluc
disaster occurs nearly every
month it does not appear to be
necessary to order an explosion
for a certain date, but tie gov
eminent has.
On September 16 there will &C.
cur, in a Pennsylvania mine, an
explosion. No lives are likely to
be lost, and in this instance great
benefits are expected to follow.
At last the government has
awakened to the fact that the
mines Of this country are but
poorly equipped and the lives of
the men who work in everlasting
night are badly protected in cases
of unexpected disaster.
Active preparations are now
being made in Washington by
government officials for the
unique mine rescue tournament
which is to be held on the
date above mentioned.
To further emphasize the i'm
portance of this exhibition, Pres
ident Taft, the secretary Of the
interior and other officials will be
present.
The tournament will be under
the direct supervision of the
newly established bureau of
mines. Competitive contests in
relief work, of the character ne
cessitated in connection with or
following a mine disaster, are
not of course a novelty in the
Keystone state. AT various
points such competitions have
been annual events. In this in
stance. however, it is the pur-
pose of the bureau to test the
latest mine rescue appliances.
The Offices of the bureau have
been flooded of late with
many new and ingenious devices
to be used in protecting mines,
protecting the lives of miners,
and to aid in the rescue after a
disaster occurs.
In England the government
rewards the inventor Of any APP
pliance which can be used for
the rescue work or for the pro-
lection of human life. This coun-
try has been far behind the coun
tries Of Europe in this respect,
possibly held back by the influ-
ence Of the mine owners, who
have been reluctant to contribute
to the humane cause of saving
the lives of their employees.
The growing record of death,
the awful toll that is paid, arous.
ed the country after the Cherry,

seemed impossible to secure the
needed relief.
1t has last been achieved and
the tournament on September
is will be the opening wedge t.

miners.
