THE PERSlA's VOYAGE.
SAN FRANCISCO, February IA
Although the Pacific Mail liner Per.
STA, Captain John HILL was scheduled
to sail for the Orient via Honolulu at
l o'clock p. m. yesterday, it was three
hours later before Hill, who is going
out as skipper for the first time, gave
the order to cast off the lines The
delay was due to the immense amount
of freight now being handled by the
company, a portion of which had to
be loaded after the regular sailing
hour had passed
The vacancy caused by the promo
ton of Hill, who was formerly chief
officer, was filed by A. H. George, re-
Gently first officer OF the Panama
steamer City of Sydney. The feature
of the passenger list of fifty in the
first cabins was that there were only
three married couples. The following

Il can't begin to tell how I felt at
that time" said Snyder. II knew that
II the snake coiled tighter it would
probably injure me severely, and al
ready the clasp was SO tight I could
scarcely BREATHE"
Back and forth swayed the snake,
and when finally the keeper appeared
through the open door he did not no
tice h predicament of his superior,
and Snyder did not dare to call out.
Il knew" he said, that If the man
stopped whtstling the snake would go
back to the business Of getting warm
by coiling tighter about me-"
The keeper did not stop whistling,
and while the snake listened it caught
sight of an open glass bottle Of milk
the keeper carried. The sight of the
milk was enough. to start the snake
uncoiling, and 1t began gliding after
the milk carrier. Once free from the
attention of the snake Snyder called to
the keeper. and the latter. who was
about to pour out a bowl of milk for q
sick lizard. promptly set 1t down for
the python.
THE fondness Of pythons for milk
is notorious" said Snyder in telling his
story. "a python will follow a bowl
OF milk for miles. and then be per-
fectly satisfied with the milk as a re-
ward for its journey. In India some-
times the natives in travelling through
the forests carry a torch ahead for
fear Of wild animals, and one man
will bring, up. the rear carrying. a bowl
of milk. In this way they sometimes
enter a town followed by half a dog
en- pythons. as they say in India,
'wagging their tales behind them.'"
After the chapter Of snake life Sny-
der departed quickly to feed the croc,
odiles.

There Is indefinite and only tenta-
tive talk Of prosecuting the women Of
Clarksield. Ohio. who in disguise
tarred and feathered a young woman
whose moral standard fell below the
ideas Of the other women. Such a
case is. Of course. which prose-
cutors are 10th to handle. But IL that
section of Ohio is to maintain its rep
utation for the supremacy Of the Law,
those who can be proved to have par
ticipated In this demonstration must
be punished for 1t.
Tarring and feathering is lynch law
in less degree. The only difference is
that lynching is murder and tar,'ng
and feathering is only aggravated as
sault and battery Of a deliberate and
odious character. 1t simply asserts
the right of a mob, male or female, to
condemn any individual 1t may dis
like and iniict cruel or d~isgraceful
punishment without regard to the
law.
1t may be conceded that the young
woman who suffered at the hands OF

may have been, she was entitled to
meet her accusers in court and have
the charges examined under the light
