Sufferer Seeks
Cure by Letting
Rather Bite Him
Ex-Sailor, tuberculosis Vic
tim, Deliberately Let's Dead
ly Snake Sink Fangs in
Hand; Doctors Interested.

Fremont, Neb., Aug. S.-(Spe'
cial.)-Desperate for cure for tu-
bcrculosis with which he is suffering
George Burke OF Fort Morgan,
Colo, formerly of O'Neill, Neb,, de-
liberately allowed a deadly rattle
snake to sink his fangs into his hand,
believing that the poisonous venom
would check the progress of the
white plague.
Word arrived here today of the
unusual incident, Burke being known
in this vicinity. Physicians are anx-
iously awaiting the outcome of the
daring experiment after they had
treated Burke for case of snake
bite.
Burke is SO, an cx-sailor, who
went to Colorado year ago to rid
himself of tuberculosis. His health
has been slowly failing and relief did
not appear to be in sight. He had
heard that a Sn9ke's venom would
kill the ravages of the plague disease
and resolutely stuck his arm into
box holding a four-foot rattlesnke
with seven rattleS and a button.
The disturbed rattler buried his
fangs deep into his hand. Burke
withdrew his arm from the box, seiz-
ed the snake, calmly severed the
head from the body and waited pa
tiently for the poison to begin its
work.
Several hours later, when he felt
sure that the snake poison had had
the opportunity to permeate through
out his system, he called a doctor
and was treated for snake bite.
Latest reports state that Burke is
still in good health and that he be-
lieves his cure for tuberculosis has
been elected. Medical authorities
who berated the idea at first are
watching his case with interest TO
determine whether rattlesnake venom
will actually cure the plague disease.

Attempt To Rob
Train Thwarted
Negro Bandit Forced to Jump
When Locked in Vesti-
bule of Car.

Hamburg, a., Aug. 3.-About
midnight last night, as Burlington
Council Bluffs-Kansas City passen-
ger train No. p was pulling out OF
Hamburg, a big negro climbed over
the observation end of the rear car,
presented a revolver at the head of
the fagman who was sitting on the
platform and ordered the trainman
not to make noise.
The negro then gave the fagman
his orders.
He was to escort him through
the train to the front end, the plans
of the negro evidently being to be-
gin work there to rob the passengers
or possibly to rob the mail and ex-
press cars.
Obeying the negro, who walked
behind with his gun pressing on the
hagman's back, the fagman started
forward. Before they had reached
the front end they came to car the
door OF which was locked.
The porter of the car, through
which the two had just passed, sus-
pected that something was wrong
and he quickly locked the door OF his
car, thus leaving the negro bandit
and the fagman in the vestibule
with progress either forward or
backward blocked.
The negro bandit was equal to he
situation.
He ordered the fagman to stop
the train, which he did, meanwhile
also opening the vestibule and the
moment the train slowed down the
negro dropped off and disappeared
in the darkness.
An alarm was sounded and a
posse organized. but no trace of the
would-be bandit could be secured.
The search is being continued today.

Sweet Soldier
Aid Bill Ready
For President
House Agrees on Conference
Report on Measure to Care
For Disabled World
War Veterans.

Washington, Aug. 3.-The long
fight for legislation to end the ma
TONS neglect of its disabled veterans
was brought to a triumphant con-
clusion Tuesday when congress put
the final stamp Of approval on the
Sweet BILL
By vote OF 264 to 4, the house
agreed to the conference report on
the measure, following the example
set by the senate yesterday. The
bill will become a law just as soon
as the president signs it. An effort
will be made to have It sent to him
at Mount Prospect, n. H., so that
he can sign it without waiting to re-
turn to the White House.
The four votes against the con-
ference report were cast by Repre-
sentatives Hamilton Fish of New
York, RoSebloom OF West Virginia,
Lincbergcr of California and Blan-
ton of Texas. They opposed the
conference report because the senate
amendment suggested by Rcpresen-
tative Fish to increase the allowance
for attendance hire for totally blind
ex-service men from $40 to $50 had
been stricken out OF the bill
In the brief debate preceding
adoption of the conference report
Representative Sweet Of Iowa,
author of the bill, informed the
house that the government would
spend approximately 100000 for
the relief of disabled veterans during
the present fiscal year. He stated
that the outlay during the fiscal
year just passed for this purpose
was about $460000,000 so that the
increased expenditure under the
Sweet bill would be about
$20,0O0000.
