TNHE recent progressive steps Of the
city commission in regard to ade-
quate traffic laws on the down
town streets and effective enforcement Of
the laws has brought to, life again the
suggestion made some time ago ard the
plan formulated at that time to create
board of examiners for automobile ariv-
ers. The good that could be accom-
plished by such a board is TO be perfectly
obvious to all we'll Informed automobile
men and the need for 1t is said 70 be
crying one. In Birmingham at this time
1t il said to be practically impossible for
even the police TO keep trace OF incom-
petent men and boys who drive automo-
biles 1t is said to be not so much the reck-
lessness of some drivers, but alleged treat
ment OF passengers that is causing a wave
of public sentiment among well disposed
owners for such a board OF examiners.
only last week several automobile men
eiated incidents where drivers assumed
advantage og-r strangers in Bismjrg-
ham, carried them far out of The way
in order to increase their tariffs and
then overcharged them without mercy.
IL is said to be also fact that during
the recent visit of the congressional COM
mittee in birmingham the driver tenn
porarily engaged when the committee first
landed here treated them with shame
less disregard. The fortunate feature of
that was the management of the Hillman
hotel caught in time some of the irreg
ularities started and saved the city as
well as the congressional committee from
embarrassment.
1t is proposed by well thinking auto
mobile men to have board appointed to
examine drivers, look UP their records,
test them on their knowledge of the city
and the legal tariffs, as well as to their
expert knowledge of automobiles to the
end that the alleged Irregularities that
are said to be unchecked here may be
remedied.
The Automobile Dealers association,
whose work is more effective in the win
ter than at other times, is said to be
considering drafting such law for the
commission. and then asking that board
to pass the law creating the examining
board for the drivers. This matter will,
it is said be taken without delay.

Risks Life to Save Rather

Hoping to save the life of the only
canebrake rattlesnake in the New York
geological park, an operation was per-
formed on that snake yesterday morning
by Charles Snyder, keeper of the rep
! tiles. The RATHER had what is known as
a canker It had become so large that
the snakes head was twice it's ordinary
size. 1t started on the left side of The
mouth and had affected the fangs 50 bad
ly that one had become diseased and was
broken off.
This in no way prevented the snake
from ejecting its deadly poison, which it
did in such quantities while the opera
ton was under way that 1t streamed over
the hand of the keeper.
Before undertaking the hazardous job
Snyder examined his hands closely to see
IL he had any abrasions, as he said that
the poisonous fluid would be just as dead
ly If 1t got into an open wound as if it
were injected into the body with the
snakes fangs, says the New York Tri-
bune.
1t required 20 minutes to complete the
operation. Snyder had one assistant The
snake which is seven feet long, twice
cluoded his glasses with it's musk amana-
ton. AS explained by the keeper, rattle
snakes give off nauseous odor when
angry.
With a long piece bf wire bent at one
end Snyder reached in the cage for the
snake. crowd in the reptile nouse
watched him at work The rattler hit at
him twice. and as it was about to strike
again the keeper pinned it down with the
wire. AS he did so he let the snake slide
on to the floor in the back of the cage
Then with a bamboo cane ne held it
firmly by the neck while he reached over
and fastened his hand back of the Snakes
head.
Then he pried the rattler's mouth open
and saw the one broken fang and the
ulcer. The snake elected quantity of it's
poison, and 1t trickled down his hand and
wrist. For 20-nninutes he worked over the
reptile, and when he had finished the
dangerous piece of surgery he bathed the
wound with an antiseptic preparation
The crowd had waited In FROM of the
cage, and when finally Snyder orened it
and pushed the reptile in again they saw
the angry creature whip the pebbles
against the glass of it's cage until they
sounded like falling hailstones
II think he will get well now," said
the Keeper, as he washed the poison from
his hand.
The canebrake ratter is the second
snake of this country for it's deadliness,
only the Texas rattler being rated ahead
of it, according to Snyder.
