Snake Does Not "Sting"

The stinging snake is a myth. Al
though thousands of people apparently
believe there is such a thing as q
singing snake, and many of them In
sist that they have seen such snakes,
no competent scientist or observer has
ever had the privilege of seeing one.
Rewards for stinging snakes are oc-
casionally offered. but no such snakes
are ever produced. The nearest ap-
proach to the supposed stfnging snake
is the "Farancia abacura," a small,
harmless snake with a needle-like
spine on its tail. In different parts
Of the South this snake, along with
kindred species, is known variously as
the hoop snake, the rainbow snake,
the mud snake and the stinglng snake.
But the notion that these snakes sting
with their tails is all poppycock.--

We inhabit a country which. has been
signalized In the great history of free
dom. We live under forms of govern
ment more favorable to its diffusion
than any other the world has known.
A succession of incidents of rare curl
osity and almost mysterious connec-
ton has marked out America as a
great theater of political reform. Many
circumstances stand recorded In our
annals connected with the assertion
OF human rights which, were we not
familiar with them, would fill even our
minds with mazement.-Edward Ev-

prestige"

Strange are the ways of words. OF
which there is no better example than
the fact that prestige" which names
the power or influence Of good repu-
tation, should have had Its beginning
in the tricks of jugglerI Yet that is
how II started.
Prestige" goes back to the Latin
''praestigiae." meaning juggling tricks
the same derivation as our pres
tidigitation" which is sleght-o
And the explanation Of this strange
transition Is In the fact that In the
myth and goblin-tenanted days Of the
far-distant past, juggling tricks were
supposed to manifest enchantment,
which was regarded with the very
highest admiration and respect hence
prestige"

u EPEAT this while looking at the
~ first star that catches your eye
in the evening skies, make your wish
and the wish will be fulfilled. This is
common superstition among chill
dren and had its genesis on the plains
Of Shinar, in the days when the Chal-
dean priests watched the courses of
the stars and read from them the des-
tiny of men and empires. 1t is an off,
shoot of astrology; and how firm a
hold astrology has taken on the SUI
perstitious inherent in mankind is evil
denced by the fact that in the Middle
Ages it was generally accepted as a
true science and by the large num-
Der of fakirs who today make living
by its alleged practice
Out of this idea of the relation Of
the stars to human destiny grew the
idea that each mans fate was at
tached at birth to a particular star.
HE was born under lucky star" we
still say. Napoleon was always talk
ing about his "star"-half metaphor
ically, half with belief in its ac-
tuality. To the modern child astrology
is but a name and he has never heard
of "his star" But lurking somewhere
in his nature is the inherited super
stition of the ages and that primitive
urge-for the child's mind Is the
primitive mind-which causes him to
establish connection between his
fate and one of the astral bodies. But
the child is an adventurer, an imita-
tor, psychologically as well as other
wise. He does not conceive of him
self as bound to any particular star
the first star he sees answers his pur-
poses, Is appropriated as readily as
the forbidden jam and its good offices

Sam was the new office boy In the
Business Girls Office. When he was
hired she asked him if his whole name
were not Samuel, but like Topsy he
claimed he was "just Sam" Several
weeks went by. Sam was very small
boy for his age and not at all strong
for his size. AS there were several
men in the office Sam had very little
heavy work to do, and 1t was under
stood in the Office that the heavy work
would have to be done by some one
huskier than Sam.
One day Sam confided to the Busi-
ness Girl that he had changed his
name to Sam-he said his name had
been much worse than that. When the
Business Girl asked what his name
had been originally he replied, modest
ly and rather sheepishly, Samson !"--

ago received the following letter from
Kamiah, which, like the many others
of the same tenor, is very much ap-
preciated by the Lewis County Fair
management and which we are pub
fishing at this time both because of
this appreciation and to call attention
to the fact that the time is nearing
for a meeting looking forward to or
ganization and plans for next year s
fair:
''In behalf of the Shamrock Club
of Kamiah, we wish to express our APP
probation of the splendid time shown
to us during the fair week by the Nez-

first year we did not have as much
to show for ourselves as we wish to
have in. the future. However, we
came away knowing great deal more

We gathered many profitable points
from the wonderful demonstrations
put on by the different teams. And

The Iberian peninsula was so named
from the ancient inhabitants, who
were known as the Iberes. According
to some authorities the word merely
means inhabitants" The name
seems to have been applied by the
earlier Greek navigators to the
peoples on the eastern coast of Spain,
probably originally those who dwelt
by the River Iberus, the modern Ebro.
Iberian thus means. sometimes the pop
ulation Of the peninsula in general
and sometimes the peoples of some
definite race who formed one element
In the population.

ACCUSED MEMBERS
WITH COUNSEL AT
HOUSE HEARING

Washington, Mar. 2S-Represen-
tatives Langley. of Kentucky, and
Zihlman, of Maryland, both Repub-
licans, were definitely identified to-
day as the two members of con-
gress" referred to in the report of
the Chicago grand jury, which inves-
tigated alleged veterans bureau
frauds.
AS an aftermath of the Chicago
disclosures, Langley was indicted
here yesterday on charges of con-
spiracy to illegally withdraw liquor,
the grand jury. however, made no
mention of Zihlman in its report.
For two hours today, both of
them, with their attorneys, were be-
fore the house committee which is
investigating the charges against
them. In their presence. John H.
Grim, special government counsel
who handled the presentation of evil
dence to the Chicago grand jury.
was examined under oath by fhe
committee.
After Crim's examination of Lang
ley and Zihlman. Representative
Burton, Republican, Ohio. chairman
of the committee, issued this state
ment:
For the purpose of ascertaining
formally, in compliance with the
resolution, who were the members
of the house against whom charges
were made in the Chicago grand
jury proceedings, special assistant to
the attorney general. Mr.. John w.
Grim, was examined by the commit
tee this afternoon and stated that
Representatives Langley ID Zihl-
man were the members &. the house
who were then mentioned. Messrs.
Langley and Xihman were present
at the hearing with their counsel.
The matter was then held over un-
til next Wednesday,"
After the committee meeting,
neither Grim. Langley nor Zihlman
would make any statement as to de-
velopments. Committee members
also we're reluctant to go beyond the
statement issued by the chairman.
