.SNiKES SPRING

Swim Like Lightning and
Spit Poison-All in City
Park
PORT ELIZABETH'S
PROUD OF FARM
nv FDWARD VI. THIERRY

PORT ELIZABETH, South Africa Nov
.2S.-Besides eternal winds. Point Eliza
beth is famous for its snake park.
The town, like most others in South
Africa, has a museum that eXcels any
thing in any American city Of ten or
twenty times the population. And The
snake park is absolutely unique.
Live snakes Of seventeen different
varieties peculiar TO Africa are kept in
an outdoor enclosure about 30 yards
long and half as wide The park Is
fenced i'm by a concrete will three feet
high on the outside. Within the park
is dug out. about three feet below
ground level.
There is no cage or glass covering Of
any kind.
But the wall within slopes down at
a reverse angle and at the base, cntlre-
~ surrounding what amounts to an
isle, is a ditch Of water a yard wide and
a couple of feet deep.
The snakes can swim like streaEs or
lightning and they can spring several
feet in the air. but they cannot swim
the "moat" and then climb the smooth
wall.
F. w. Fitzsimmons, curator Of the
museum, Is a world authority on
snakes, and the snake park IS his pride
and joy.
He climbs down into II and has gay
time with venemous puff adders, cobras,
tree snakes, pythons and the like.
He gave a spine-chilllng demonstra-
ton Of extracting poison by grabbing
the snakes behind the head and making
them thrust their venom-dripplng tangs
into a cloth covering a glass, into which
the poison dropped
Fitzsimmons, by the way, dealt a
death blow TO whisky and other forms
OF alcohol as cure for snake bite. He's
got countless experiments 10 back him
up.
He says the best way to cure snake
bite is TO lacerate the wound with a
knife and apply permangenate OF pot
ash as first aid and then inject anti-ve-
nom serum
The expedition is going to take per-
mangenate and serum instead Of whis-
ky, up country.

Wilson League Covenant as An Issue
(From The New York SUM-

force 10 his apologists and supporters
in his party organization and In the
journals devoted 10 his enterprise. The
assumption of the Presidents repre-
sentative and authorized character as
the spokesman OF an American demand
for just that sort OF a league as was
proposed by his covenant has been
the main argument OF his followers
throughout the long fight Even as
lately as yesterday morning we found
our nelghbor the Times asserting In
this forclble manner the existence OF a
prevalent sentiment in favor Of the
league: "The treaty will be ratified II
the people OF the United states make
their servants OF the Executive and
Legislative departments understand that
Il must be ratified" The only trouble
with the Times's unshaken confidence
In a public opinion favorable 10 the
Wilson covenant is that that unveriiled
confidence Is offered, not as a reason for
verifying Il In the manner suggested
by Senator Lodge, but as a reason foi
proceeding 10 ratfy the treaty without
any attempt at verilcation.
In the progress OF human events th'
last plausible excuse for avoiding q
proper and deliberate consideration o.
the league covenant, 10 be followed by
an ascertained expression OF enlightened
American opinion on the subject, has
entirely disappeared from view. The
heart OF Europe. we know now, will
not be broken n the citizens OF this Re
public take time for intelligent action
in a matter so vitally affecting the ma
TONS future. There is no postpone
ment OF peace IN refusing 10 put through
the covenant under rush orders; for,
as Senator Reed again pointed out so
clearly yesterday, the way 10 a formal
and technical recognition OF the peace
That In fact exists is open through a
OF peace by resolution Of
Congress made law by the signature Of
the President.
