SNAKE IS FIGHTER
South American Reptile Attacks
Man on Sight.
3ushmaster Probably the Most Feared
and Worst Tempered Of the Earth's
Crawling Creatures.

The worst-tempered snake In the
world is the so-called bushmaster of
South America. writes 7. c. Bridges
n the London Daily Mail. There are
:hree sorts of bushmasters, of which
he largest. called by the Indians the
'surucucu," is yellow monster rang
ing, when full grown. from nine to
thirteen feet In length.
This creature, which Is extremely
plentiful in the damp forest, attacks
On sight. Without the slightest warn
ing it comes hurting out of thicket
and drives straight at the intruder.
And its bite, to white man, means
speedy and horrible death. The Indi-
ms, however, have some herbal rem
sdy which protects them against the
effect of this poison.
Last year man sent on message
rom one ranch in Bahia to another did
lot arrive. Search was made and his
,ody was discovered with a great
suracucu" wrapped round 1t.
The brute was killed, and then 1t
vas found that the unfortunate mes
senger's body was one mass Of bites.
rhere were literally scores of pune
ures from the poison-dealing fangs.
The ''surucucu" has another peculi-
lrity which, so far as is nown, Is
lhared by one other serpent only. This
that it is capable of making a sound.
quite apart from kissing. 1t Is de-
lcribed as low whistling--a sort Of
'phew! Phew!' If one Of these crea-
ures is hidden In hollow tree--a ia
,crable resort--its presence can be de-
ected by the sound 1t makes.
The smaller bushmaster Is known
" the Indians as the "apagafoco." The
lame means '1over Of fire."
Fire, instead Of soaring this snake.
attracts 1t, and by, campers In wet
crest the cooking fire Is always ex-
inguished before sleeping. Otherwise
he man who goes to relight 1t In the
morning will probably find one of these
ieadly creatures coiled in the warm
,mbers, and possibly pay for the ex-
)erience with his life.
In the swamps Of Brazil and In every
'orest pool anacondas abound. OF
.hese, too, there are three sorts.
The largest is the "dermidera," the
greatest and most terrible of pythons.
t is black in color, and Its native name
means "the snorer" This is the other
snake which makes an audible sound,
apart from kissing, a sound compar-
lble with the loud snoring Of sleep
ng man.
One of these snakes has been killed
exceeding 60 feet In length, but trails
seen In the swamps seem to indicate
he existence of still more monstrous
specimens.
Even the smaller anacondas will at
tack man. and it Is highly unsafe to
approach a forest pool to drink with
,ut first taking due precautions. The
anacondas lie In the water, with heads
lust above the surface, silently await
lng prey.
The Indians of inner Brazil all speak
IF another snake which, so far, has not
been identified by the naturalist. They
call it the Salamanca" and describe
It as a sort Of boa about 20 feet long,
but of enormous thickness.

Our Pear-sbaoed Globe.

While Dowie. insisted that the earth
was fiat, and his successor, voliva,
sticks to the same opinion, serious
scientists now begin to bark back to
the theory which Columbus formur
lated on his third voyage, that the
earth IS shaped somewhat like a
pear.
The eminent geologist Sollas affirms
that If the earth is tending to become
round, 1t has not yet become SO. 1t
even appears that what is today the
moon belonged originally to the stem
end of the terrestrial pear, which in
the course Of violent rotation threw
off the moon.
This, says the Petit Parisien, is a
theory. 1t Is perhaps as good as any
other, but anyway it Is well not to
get excited over 1t. Men were Just as
well off when they believed that the
earth was fat and did 1t suspect
the existence Of antipodes.
