SNAKE HIDDEN IN HORN;
MUSICIAN SCALDS IT OUT.

ALTOONA. Pa, Sept. 4.--En route
10 McAlevy's Fort, Huntingdon
county. to give a concert, the newly
organized brass band of Mooresville
ran into the best snake story of the
season.
They travelled the nine miles In q
primitive hay wagon. s. H. Lightner,
a game warden musician, sitting up
with the driver. espied q three-foot
black snake snoozing along the road.
He slid quietly TO the ground. seized
the reptile by the tail, and just for
the fun of the thing gave II a toss
into the midst of the bandmen, who
were all logged put in new uniforms.
Before the bandmen recovered
from their fright the snake. seeing
the inviting hole in Huller Isenberg's
big bass horn, sought refuge in the
interior of the instrument and quick
iy disappeared. Huller nearly shook
the horn to pieces trying to get the
reptile out, but 1t sat tight DEFY
ing all his efforts.
Finally a brother musician, with q
streak of originality in him, sug-
gested scalding 1t out. When the
band arrived at it's destination a
kettle of hot tea was secured, and
the snake came out so quick 1t all
but got away.

AMERICAN MUSIC TO
INVADE GREAT BRITAIN
Yankees Weary of Giving
Profits to John Bull.

LONDON, Sept. 4.-American music
publishers are about to begin a seri-
Gus invasion of England.
They have been very much discon-
tented for a long time past over the
treatment they have received in the
English market. and have now de-
cided to combine and establish a
clearing house in London to deal with
the publications of all American
houses. They will pool their expenses.
Experience has shown that running
a London branch is a big proposition.
Several publishers, accordingly, were
forced to arrange with English pub
fishers to act as agents for them in
the United Kingdom.
These agents always had the right
of selecting whatever they chose from
an American publishers stock. 1t
was natural that they have only
taken successful issues that did not
need advertising.

young men whose homes are in the
town of Princeton are held in $500

comHitted to Jail. and more arrests
are promised.
An unsavory condition, called to
the attention of Mayor Phillips and
Marginal kilfoil, of the university
town. seemed to make official action
desirable, and the wholesale arrests
were made when it was learned that
the two girls were about to leave the
jurisdiction. They, too, were taken
into custody and placed>in the hos
pitaE of the Jail here as witnesses
held for the State. They were CON
sideted too young for confinement
with the other women prisoners.

further states that $50 of his

Important Priesthood
Meeting.

At the last regular meeting of
the priesthood held at this place
some very importantinstruction
were given out to the members
of the different quOrums in relat-
ion to their duties as members of
the Church OF Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints.
1t has been very noticeable that
for some time there have been
a great many people in the church
who have claimed a standing
therein but otherwise they have
not manifested 1t by their works.
1t was therefore requested of all
presiding officers that they should
encourage activity from those
who are not working that more
might be accomplished than is
being done at the present time,
and if they meet up with people
who do not prize their standing
in the Church of sufficient value
to do something they should deal
with them according to the laws
of the Church. Dead branches
are no good if they cannot be
made live and thrifty by pruning
and should be severed from the
tree.
The Bishops and Organization
Officers throughout the entire
Stake were instructed to begin an
active campaign of reformation
and cleaning up in their respect
i've associations and departments
1t is believed nothing more
timely and appropriate could
be done to strengthen and dignity
the Church both at home ano
abroad, and such move should
receive the support of every mem
Der who prizes his standing worth
nything at all. He should have
sufficient respect tor himself ant
the Church to either be active ano
loyal or else say he prefers taking
some other course, but one thing
is certain that something should
be done and what looks more
certain is, that the Stake Author
tiles and Officers who attended
the meeting are determined that
something will be be done.
