1t is difficult to believe that ants will
kill snakes. but such IS the case. and
scientists have discovered that in GER
tain regions this class OF reptile has no
more persistent enemy. The large red
brown forest ants are the most i'm
placable. and a curious thing about the
attack Of these tiny creatures on the
reptiles is that they kill it for food and
not on account Of natural antipathy.
When some of these ants catch sight
Of snake they arouse the whole com

striking their ''nippers'' into its body

MOONS OF THE UNIVERSE.


Besides Our Own Luna twenty-five
Others Are Known to Exist.
There are in all twenty-five moons
besides our queen Of night, Mars hav-
ing two. Jupiter eight, Saturn ten, IRA
nus four and Neptune one, says the
Philadelphia Public Ledger. 0feourse
new lunar additions are likely to be
discovered at any time. although it is
improbable that Mercury and Venus
have any satellites or that Mars has
more than two.
The two known moons Of Mars are,
indeed, very minute. neither being over
fifty miles in diameter. On the other
hand. Jupiter's first four satellites, as
well as Ganymede, are each larger
than Queen Luna. Ganymede having a
diameter Of about 1850 miles. Titan
of Saturn possesses diameter approx
mating 5000 miles, while that OF NeT-
tunes sole satellite is about 1900 miles
As respects our own moon, Queen
Luna has only one-forty- the size
and one-eighty-tirst the weight Of our
earth. Luna's distance from us varies
good deal, from 22i,ooo miles to 252,-

still retain their popularity IN the east

these vessels were made OF carefully

ARGUMENT
WILL GO into
THE PAMPHLET

After considering objections ad-
vanced by Charles Devore against the
filing Of negative argument as to a
bill creating Cascade county from
Clackamas county, Secretary of State
0lcott yesterday afternoon ruled
against his contention.
Devore is the chairman of commit
tee waging campaign for the crea-
tion of the new county, and when a
negative argument signed by 200 peo-
pie was presented for filing he took
exceptions to it. He contended to be-
gin with that the law provides that an
argument can only be filed by per-
son, committee or organization and
that the argument did not comply with
this provision. He contended further
that 1t was illegal because the names
we're typewriter.
Secretary of State Olcott consulted
Attorney-General Crawford with re-
lation to the subject, and then ruled
in favor Of allowing the argument to
be filed, and It will 80 into the pub

whether they approve it or not, and

unique. Shortly after suit was insti-
tuted by the University of Oregon to
restrain the secretary of state from
referring to vote Of the people two
bills making appropriations for 1t on
the ground that the petitions were
fraudulent, suit was also instituted on
the same grounds by the Monmouth
Normal school, A verbal understand
ing was made that IL should abide by
the decision of the university case, but
no written stipulation was entered
into to that effect, and the other day
the executive committee of the nor
NAL school board raised this question
and also the further question that the

at the close of the tuberculosis con
vention, as the only effective means
of making successful war ON tubercu
losis and exterminating It,
Under present conditions, he as
serted, there are a number Of institu-
tions fighting tuberculosis, but there
is no effective cooperation among
them. If central dispensary with o
trained staff of physicians and nurses
was established, and then co-opeation
between 1t and the different institu-
tions established he believed that in
time the disease could be wiped Out
of the state.
He would have this central dispen-
sary operate as clearing house fol-
patients, distributing them among the
different institutions. Ambulatory pa
tients would be kept at the dispen
sary for treatment He would make
1t the duty oGphysicians in connection
with 1t to make visits for the purpose
of unearthing cases of tuberculosis
and also make II compulsory upon al
physicians discovering cases of the
disease to report them to the dispen

AUTO HIT
BY TRAIN;
ONE DEAD

Seattle, Wash, July 26.-Dr, Ed
ward NJ. Rininger, one of the most
widely known surgeons in the North
west, was killed and Miss Luella
Davis, a trained nurse, whose parents
reside In st. Paul, was probably ia
tally injured late yesterday, when Dr.
Rininger's automobile was struck by
Tacoma-bound train on the Puget
Sound Electric railway, at Riverton
seven miles south Of Seattle. Miss
Davis sustained broken leg and was
injured internally. DR. Dininger's sis
ter, Miss Olive M. Rininger, was also
severely hurt, but will recover. W.
Brodnix, the chauffeur, escaped injury
The accident happened at crossing
where the interurban track swings out
from bluff that hides It from the
northbound traffic ON the automobile
road.
Those in the automobile heard the
gong of the approaching train, which
was running at high speed, and the
driver applied the brakes, but the car
skldded and came to a stop in the
middle of the track when the train
was only 80 feet away.
The motorman set the air brakes,
but the train ran 800 feet before It
came to a stop. Dr. Rininger, who
was In the front seat on the side next
to the approaching train was thrown
under the wheels and dragged Go feet.
The two women we're thrown into
the road and Brodnix, clutchlng the
steering gear, remained in his seat as
the automobile was hurled aside.
Miss Rininger and Miss Davis were
placed on the train and brought to
Seattle, where they were taken to a
hospital.

the circuit court which was in favor

Accordingly they asked the secre-
tary of state to be permitted to draw
on the appropriation and presented a
voucher He declined to honor 1t,
however, the encouragement holding
that though an appeal had not been
teken that the judgment was void be-
cause the Monmouth school had not
complied with the decisioon of the
supreme court holding that such a
suit could not be instituted by pri-
vate party.
But for all that the judgment Is on
record and there is in existence per-
petual Injunction restraining the sec
retary Of state from allowing the bill
to be referred to vote of the people,
and should the encouragement be in
error in his conclusion the secretary
Of state will be subject to contempt of
court.
AS soon as Governor West returns
1t is the intention of the Normal
School Board to meet and decide
whether any action is to be taken to
compel the secretary of state to pay
over the appropriation now that the
judgment of the lower court in the
opinion of some members has become
final.
