DEATH FROM SNAKE BITES
RARE IN L. s. FIGURES SHOW.

Although the average mortality
from American venomous snakes is a
little more than 10 per cent Of the
persons bitten, death from snake bites
S quite rare, according to the Bio
logical Survey of the United States
Department Of Agriculture, because
relatively few persons encounter or
are bitten by the dangerous species
The most venemous of our native
snakes live in lonely, little-settled dis
tricts, often on stony or swampy land
that can not he cultivated. Usually
they disappear at the approach Of
man, and while they may strike if
provoked, the popular belief IN respect
to the distance they can strike is err
roneous. Three-fourtls of their own
length is about the greatest distance
possible IF the legs are well pro
tected when one is going into deep
woods or places known to be infested
by rattlers or other poisonous snakes.
there is little chance Of being bitten.
As the food of snakes consists of
living prey, they can not be killed by
poisoned bats. The only method thus
far devised to kill them seems to be
clubbing or shooting This Is best
done in early spring. when they are
still sluggish after the winter hiber-
nation. Allowing hogs free run Of in
Tested land may reduce the number Of
snakes. However, the popular idea
that hogs are immune to snake bite is
probably based on the impenetrabil-
ity Of the venomous fangs of their
thick skin anl fat layer rather than on
actual immunity Of these animals.
The varieties most commonly found
in this country are the Elapidae. OF
Harlequin snakes, and the Crotalidae
or pit vipers," which includes rattle
snakes. cotton-mouth water moccas-
sins, and copperheads.

characterized by a charming sim
plicity Of arrangement and beauty Of
decoration, the marriage Of Miss Ra-
mona Ada Space, daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. r. A. Space of this city, to
julie Clarke Lindley, son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. j. T. Lindley of Leavenworth

friends. Clusters of peonies and roses
in shades ranging from creamy white
to rose pink were everywhere in eyi-
dence, against background of ferns
and greenery, effected q colorful set
ting for the service. The bride pre-
sented a picture Of girlish loveliness
in her wedding gown of sand color
rhama crepe trimmed with bands of
vivid rose color in the same material
and veiled here and there with gold

and sprays Of the same blossom fell

CHAS. WILL
MYSTERIOUSLY
DISAPPEARS

Chas. VIII, aged about siXty-five anC
a traciCwalker for the Great Northern
Railway Co., mysteriously disappear
ed Monday Of this week, and at this
writing { Thursday noon nc
trace Of him had been discovered, ex.
cepting his lunch pail and sweater
Aere found by Clyde Snyder. signal
maintainer, down the bank from the
track near the waters edge and about
900 feet westward or upstream from
the cabin used by him and other track
inspectors. Men have been out con-
tinuously patrolling the river as far
down as the Dryden dam over which
watch has been established. Aside
from this every conceivable possibil-
ity which might account for his dis
appearance has been investigated.
Mr. VIII, We understand, left his
home in this city Monday morning to
90 on duty and that is the last seen
Of him, excepting that Mrs. Donald
Smythe says she saw him at the cor
ner by Elliott's office at about l o.
clock Monday afternoon and saluted
him. paying no attention, however, as
to where he went excepting that she
thought he crossed toward the Echo
office
He had not made his appearance on
the track to relieve Mr. Charles Dick
inson, who, it is understood had been
on duty during the night AS Mr
VIII did not appear Mr.. Dickinson, it
is said, continued on duty until eve
ming and il was not until then that
Nh Wills disappearance was made
known to his wife and daughter, Mrs.
j. Swain, and to others, and the
search was Immediately started, and
on Wednesday afternoon it was made
known that Mrs. Smythe had seen
him in town that day. 1t is learned
later that Andy Abbott saw Mr. VIII
go down the track and cross the
Chumstick railroad bridge.
1t is the belief of his family that
Mr. Viii has met with foul play or
that some accident has befallen him.
The latter seems most probable and il
may be that he has wandered off af-
ter having come back to town, and
that he will soon be found.
