DODGEs FANGS OF DEATH
Keeper of the Bronx Zoo in New York
Ducks and Cobra Strikes
Ground.

New York-A ten-foot king cobra
at the Bronx Zoo gave a performance
the other day that was entirely un-
looked for by the throng gathered in
front Of his cage. The spectators had
been attracted by the snakes hostile
attitude toward a small black snake,
which he was handling in the manner
in which a cat leases a mouse.
Keeper Charles Snyder opened the
door in the rear of the cage to assist
the black snake. The cobra coiled
and flung himself toward Snyder
The keeper ducked and the snake
landed on the ground. Then there
was action, enjoyed by the crowd safe
in front. A snake fears a shovel or a
broom. Attendants soon had one OF
es.ch at work, but at that it required
IN hour to get the Cobra back into
his cage.

SALOONS REOPEN;
MURDER FOLLOWS
Scores of Fights-80 in Cells at
Rock Island.
CLUB RA!DED BY MILITIA
Man Found Shot to Death in Alley
Troops Not to Blame, Says
Sheriff - Citizen is
Slugged.

Rock Island, III, April lone MUIR
der, a vicious attack by Sluggers,
scores of fights and 80 men arrested,
was the record Of the first day OF open
saloons at Rock Island since the mill
tia closed down the places after the
fatal rloting Of last Tuesday.
The dead man is Rufus Phoenix,
who was shot and his body thrown in
an alley. His death is shrouded in
mystery, the sluggers claiming ne was
shot by the soldiers, while the COM
handing officer of the state forces de-
clare his men have not fired a shot
since they assumed charge Of the
city.
Walter Rice of Galesburg is badly
battered as a result Of being taken for
Chief of Police Brinn. Rice and Brinn
look very much alike, and dress al
most exactly the same. 1t is thought
Rice was attacked and beaten by a
band of sluggers who thought they
were assaulting the chief of police.
Eighty Men Are Arrested.
Eighty men, participants in street
in the city and county jails.
Following a free-for-all fight at the
Lincoln club and the interference OF
soldiers and police, Rufus Phoenix,
chauffeur for Capt Walter Rosenfield,
who is campaign manager for Laur-
ence Y. Sherman, candidate for COVER
nor, was found dead in the alley out
side of the club. He had been shot
through the left lung. Two stories are
being circulated as to how he met his
death.
One is that in dispute in a poker
game he was shot and his body taken
outside the club to avoid publicity
The other is that in the scramble OF
club members to get away when the
police and militia arrived he was shot
down in trying to escape.
Fifteen Arrested in Raid.
FIFTEEN men fouRd in the club when
the raid was made are locked in the
police station. Coroner Rose will hold
rigid investigation as soon as he
finishes with the inquest on the two
riot victims. Sheriff Bruner declared
that Phoenix had not been shot by a
militiaman.
81 have positive information that
not one shot has been fired by the sol
diers since they arrived" he said.
All troops excepting the Galesburg
and Morrison companies were with
drawn today.

Good Prison Fare,

If what is said of French prisons be
correct the wonder is that there are
any people left outside. An official
return of the necessaries and luxuries
supplied recently to the prison depart
ment shows that there is no stint.
Among the edibles supplied are $4,000
tablets of chocolate, $4,000 kilo-
grammes of butter, 5000 kilogrammes
of coffee, $4,000 eggs, new laid, of
course; $4,000 kilogrammes of Bologna
sausage, 1000 cheeses, 200 kilo-
grammes of caramels, and ten times
that weight of other sweets. A kilo-
gramme is nearly 21a pounds.

"A Perfect Saw

ITO say nothing and saw wood"
seems to me one of the most sagaci6ds
phrases passed down by our hard
working forebears. Like most say
ings which have emanated from man
ual labor. this is blunt, homely, and, to-
the loquaciously inclined, painfully
accurate. Show me man bent jack
knife-fashion over a saw-horse, with
a short log under his buck, and 1 will
point out man who is minding his
own business with admirable zeal If
he must speak, he ceases to saw
While he saws he is necessarily mute
Hence this shrewd phrase, which is,
punning aside, a perfect saw.-Atlan-
tic.

tiers in Chicago if Increase
is Not Granted.

Chicago, April 1-Chicago is on
the verge of another gigantic building
trades strike, which threatens to be
even more serious than the building

tors of Chicago nearly $9,000,000, &C
cording to estimates.
The carpenters under the 1911 con-
tract receive 60 cents an hour. The
contractors have agreed to give them
621k cents an hour for 1912 This Of
fer has been refused by vote, the men
insisting upon the scent increase.

Effect of Weather.

The effect of the weather upon crys-
utilization is certain. When it is dry
the crystals are large and well de-
fined; when it rains or there is a damp
wind the salt crystallizes in fine
grains; or again, rain will stop the
capitalization entirely or retard it for
many days. Even after specialization
has taken place in Jumps as large as
hazelnuts a damp wind or a rain will
reduce the whole mass to fine gran
ular state.
