The picture was a wonder. When it

Down the lens had trickled tiny rivulet
of the liquid from the cobra fangs."
This picture was taken by Raymond L.
Ditmars, curator at Bronx Park Zoo,
New York City. The woman whose life
was endangered was Mrs. Ditmars The
picture was one of many hundred taken
by MIR. Ditmars, who is almost alone in
the field of experimental work of this sort.
Not long afterward Andrew Carnegie
saw the picture. He was sitting close to
the screen. The image was thrown from
a camera stationed behind the screen.
There was no light in the room, other than
that thrown on the screen, and the mech
anism of the machine was muffled to pre-
vent noise. The result was startling in
its reality. When the snake struck it's
head seemed to jump past the lens into
the room where Mr.. Carnegie was sitting.
The film ended there, and for several Sec
onds the room remained dark. The ST.
lence was broken by MIR. Carnege's voice.
Turn on the light, please he en-
treated. "I'm beginning to wonder if
there isn't a snake loose in this ROOM"

angry, fifteen feet in front of the camera, on
a little stage which we had set with plants
and stones to resemble it's native haunts.
Now and then it would rise up from the
floor as if it intended to strike, and stare
at us, with it's hood distended and it's

"Down at the end of the little stage
stood my wife. She knew just what to do.
"We wanted a close picture of the

So we hitched the camera to an electric
motor and focused it on point four feet
from us. All we had to do to start the
camera turning was to switch on the cur

the room, well away from the machine.
with pole we moved the snake to
the spot on which the camera was focused.
Then we started the motor. The shutter

reared up. Just as we We're beginning to

day morning in the grocery store and

one side of the building, causing a loss es
timated at from 81 500 to $1,000; which
is covered by insurance. 1t is not known
how the fire started, but it il thought
possible that some one left lantern
burning in the room where the drivers
of the delivery teams kept their coats
and caps and that the blaze started
there. There was considerable damage
from smoke TO the tenement of the sec
ond floor occupied by Frank Ducharme
and family. Mr.. Ducharme had no insur.
ance.
Mrs. Ducharme was awakened by the
smell of smoke and at FIRST she and Mr..
Dueharme thought il came from lamp
they had left burning. Soon they discov
cred that the smoke came from below
and Mr. Ducharme notified Mr.. Quay,
who at once turned in the alarm from
box 53
The firemen were on the scene prompt

streams OF water and soon had the fire
under control

Young Tucker had spent the week
hunting in this and other towns. On Sat
urday, he was accompanied by John, IA
year-old son of Walter Carpenter, and
the course was near their homes, north
ward.
About 2;30 p. m, in getting through

on the outside, Very fortunately Mr..
Carpenter was only few rods away and
the young man was taken home at the

Mitchell, was not quickly located and DR..
Newell of East Randolph was also sum
moned. Both arrived about 4 80. After ad-
first aid, decided to remove
him to the Randolph sanatorium, where
he was promptly taken by automobile.
X-ray photos were taken and it was
proven that the ball passed diagonally
downward, producing a complete fracture
Of the thigh bone and lodging there.
The ball appeared to be of small calibre
and unfattened.
The discharge of the gun was heard by
MFR. Carpenter and both boys, but was
not very accurately located and probably

ELUDED AUSTRIAN SUBMARINES.
Ship Carrying Barre People Was Warned
By the Ancona, Which Later Was Sunk.

Home from an extended sojourn on the
sunny slopes of Italy, Mrs. Mary Corti
and two daughters, Lillian and Emma
Corti, as well as Mrs Maria Comolli and
Arturo Comolli. are thanking their lucky
stars that their ship, the Giuseppe Verdi,
was not in the path of the Austrian tor-l
pedo that destroyed the Italian liner, An
coma, in the Mediterranean sea recently.
Mrs. Corti and party arrived in the city
Sunday morning from New York. where
the Giuseppe Verdi made port Saturday,
after its maiden voyage out OF Genoa.
The ship had been at sea but short
time when a wireless from the Aneona
was received. The message told of the
submarine danger impending and warned
the captain of the new Giuseppe Verdi to
shift his course at once. Had il not been
for this warning, so passengers and Off
GERS aboard the Verdi ship believe. the
new liner would have been a target for
the Austrian Submarine. Indeed. the
ships officers are of the opinion that
the enemy's dive boat put out 20 sea for
the avowed purpose of destroying the
Verdi, as IL was new boat and
no effort had been made 10 conceal the
late of its departure. The Verdi and the
Ancona put out from Genoa ON the same
lay, although the Italian authorities, IL
5 said, had taken precautionary meas
ires to prevent the Austrians from as.
