A Cure For Snake Bite.

Many are the curious methods
adopted for curing snake bites, but
surely none can be more so than way
of which our Bhavagar correspondent
informs US. Two natives in village
near that station were. he says. brought
back to life after being bitten by a
cobra.
The victims were seated on the
ground and there held. while from a
height of sixteen feet gallons OF hot
water were poured Cd their heads
Presently, according to the correspond
ent. the victims took a new lease or
life" and are as well as though they
had never been in the jaws OF death at
all.
The explanation to this "cure" prob
ably is that the snake, as often nap
pens, bit its victims, but injected no
poison into them Thus the men were
merely terrified and continued to be
frightened until the pain caused by the
douche of hot water gave them some
thing else TO think abOut.-Civtl aud

Dakota No Precedent for Florida.

Lakeland Telegram:
Rube Allyn, of the Sarasota Sun,
has been bordering the question of
State division for Florida, and an
nounces himself as an enthusiastic ad-
vocate of the proposed dissection. RUDE
closes his argument for division with
these words:
"Let us hurry out of the academic
stage of discussion and get to the
fighting stage quick. It's got to come,
why not now?"
No need to get in a hurry about it..
Another generation must come to the
front, make new sentiment and kill
the old and dominate affairs in Flori-
da before State division will have a
| fighting chance as an Issue in our pol
itics. There are some strong practi-
cal reasons in favor Of it, but array
ed against it are the prejudice, the
customs, habits and sentiment of gen
erations of Floridians who revere old
things merely because they are old;
and these have been found in human
affairs since time immemorial to be
forces more potent with the yeoman-
nv who do the voting and the fighting
than more practical considerations ad,
dressed directly to their judgment and
reasons.
