INLAD EMPIRE LEAGUE.
All Three Rnns "Homers," and
Walla Walla Wins.
BAKER CITY. July 25. (Special.) Tho
unexpected happened here today In the
Inland Empire League game between
Baker City and Walla Walla. Both teams
put up a championship game, neither side
was allowed to score, except on a. home
run hit. Walla Walla proved to be the
strongest at the bat, and as they were
not credited with a single error they won
a splendid victory. After the awful game
of Thursday which the visitors put up
their exceptionally fine work of today
was the greatest kind of a. surprise to
the friends of home team. Two home-run
hits were credited to Walla Walla and one
to Baker City. The Baker City people
were quite as enthusiastic over the game
played by Walla Walla as the rooters
from their sister town. The Baker City
boys played with their usual vim, but they
could not knock the ball over the fence
every time, and nothing else would count.

VENOM OF SERPENTS.
A Vaccine Lymph Made From the
Virus of Reptiles.
Paris Modern World.
India is the paradise of snakes. The
fact is that in India snakes aro more
dangerous to men than men are to snakes,
if we are to believe the statistics, which
show that 22,000 people die yearly In India
from snake bites. As a rule, the natives
are the victims, because they walk bare
foot The snakes of India may be di
vided into three categories the aspics, the
false vipers and the true vipers. The
most dangerous, arc the karalt and the co
bra. The venom of the cobra is Identical
with the venom of the rattlesnake used
by the Indians of North America to
poison their arrows. This venom, how
ever, is harmless when Ingested through
tho stomach, provided there is no lesion
of the mucous membrane.
Tho Hindoo physicians who use the
venom of the cobra in the composition of
their medicines enclose one of the reptiles
with a banana in an earthen pot, which
they place on the fire. Tho cobra be
comes enraged and bites the banana.
When he Is dead the banana Is removed
and carefully desslcated, to be used as a
tonic in the shape of a powder. Dr. Cal
mettc, of the Paris Institute, who has
made a special study of venomous shakes,
collects the venom of the cobra on cab
bage or lettuce leaves, which ho gives to
the reptile to bite. This venom, when
fresh, is colorless or yellowish; It can be
kept for a long time in hermetically
corked bottles, providing they are not
exposed to the sun. In which case It
would lose its toxic properties. Dessl
cated, the venom has the appearance of
yellowish gum, and It remains Indefinitely
virulent.
A queer thing Is that the composition of
the venom of tho cobra is identical with
the chemical composition of egg albumen.
We find In albumen from 21 to 23 parts of
oxygen. 7 parts of hydrogen, 15 to 17 parts
of nitrogen, 51 to 54 parts of carbon, and
2 to 3 parts, of sulphur. In the venom
of the cobra the proportions are: Car
bon, 52 parts; hydrogen, 7.05 parts; nitro
gen, 19.20 parts; oxygen and sulphur. 21.83
parts.
The largest snake of India Is the hama
dryas, which belongs to the karalt and
cobra family, and Is also venomons.
Three varieties of snakes -are no less ven
omous than the cobra; they are the dabo-
la, the itchls and the sea snake, which
sometimes ascends the Hoogly and
reaches Calcutta.
There Is no animal refractory to the
venom of snakes. Dr. Calmette has dis
covered, however, that the snake is proof
against its own venom and the venom of
other snakes. Basing his researches on
this fact, he has found in the virus of
reptiles a serum which Is not only a
remedy but a positive vaccine-lymph. He
experimented at first on vabayas and rab
bits, later on larger animals, with the
venom of snakes of various countries; the
cobra, the aspic of Egypt, the viper of
Europe, the viper of Gabon, the horned
viper of London, the rattlesnake of Amer
ica, the blacksnake and the tigersnake of
Australia.
Dr. Calmette inoculated the animals and
exposed them to the biting of snakes.
When not treated with his serum they
generally died Inside of two hours. In In
oculating rabbits the doctor prepares a
progressive quantity of pure venom,
reaching a weight of 26 milligrams, or 64
times more than Is necessary to caur-e the
death of the animal. In this way he se
cures a series of serums of graduated
strength, the weakest of which cures a
rabbit 20 minutes after being bltton, and
the strongest an hour and a half, or half
an hour before the time when death
should naturally occur.

British Picture of. Washington.
London Morning Post.
The career of Washington, full as it was
of picturesque incident, has provided few
subjects for British painters, and it Is not
easy to recall canvases that Illustrate epi
sodes In the life of the great founder of
the American Republic. Mr. Andrew Gow,
R. A., has ma"de the first President the
principal figure In the picture he has sent
to the Acidemy, and in "General Wash
ington's Farewell to the Army" the ar
tist shows us the ex-commander of the
forces saying good-bye to his compan
ions in arms at Whitehall Stairs, on the
Hudson River. It was a passage from
The Virginians" that Inspired Mr. Gow.
and In his picture we see the long line of
Infantry In blue and buff uniforms that
formed a guird of honor from the tavern
to the ferry, with a group of bareheaded
officers at the top of the stairs saluting
their leader for the last time before he
steps Into tho barge which Is to convey
him across the river. .Washington, an
Impressive and dignified figure, has al
ready abandoned his uniform, and It Is In
a suit of sober black that he stands on
the pierhead shaking hands with Gen
eral Knox, who succeeded him In com
mand of the Army.
Among the officers behind General Knox
arc many who took prominent parts In the
Revolution, Including Anthony Wayne,
Nathaniel Greene and General Steuben
among others. Below the pier of the
weather-beaten piles there Is the wait
ing barge, its crew saluting the Generxl
by poising their long blue painted oars,
and beyond are the gray masts and yards
of the shipping In the Hudson River. Mr.
Gow'b picture Is -sure to attract a great
deal of critical attention from the many
Americans who are coming to London
this season for the coronation. It Is cu
rious that while a British artist paints
Washington for the Academy, an Amer
ican, Mr. Millet, Illustrates for the same
exhibition the proclamation of King Ed
ward VH.

OUR LEADING OflES
-!
We haVe as our "leaders" the celebrated
Chlckerlng piano, of Beaton; the beauti
ful Weber, of New York, and the now
famous and superb Kimball, of Chicago.
There must oe a good reason why wo
selected these pianos.
If the selection had been limited to these
three Instruments, there wouid not have
been much virtue In our choice.
There would have been nothing else
to do.
But we chose these three out'of nearly
two hundred makes manufactured In the
Unlte.l States.
We chose these three planes because we
consider them tho highest-grade pianos
It Is possible to produce.
Our choice is reinforced and made of
value to you when vou know that back
f of It there was 15 years' experience in tho
manufacturing, wholesale and retail piano
l business, and an accurate knowledge of
eery piano on tne marnei loauy.
It lis made of. much greater value to you
when you know that we have had the
choice of practically all the high-grade
pianos manufactured.
The Chlckerlng piano Is made by tha
oldest established piano factory In the
highest pofc&ibie standard for seventy-five
. years, a fact that entitles It to the serious
i consideration of every person who thinks
ot purchasing a nlino. Whatever ago
tflnd experience develops, combined with
i intecritv an abundant canltal Is em-
integrity an. abundant capital. Is
bodied in the Chlckerlng ot today.
The Weber is an instrument that its
makers have endeavored to make superla
tive from the standpoint of tone. It is
the embodiment of a musician's ideal of
tone, and It Is rightly claimed for it that,
"from the standpoint of that pure. rich,
sympathetic quality of tone, combined
nlth the most unyielding durability, it
stand? alone."
The Kimball pianos, while not so old
I as cither of the above makes. Ins takn
I the highest rank. A slnglnficant fact In
I this connection Is the sales of the Klm
j hall. It is asserted by those who are In a
position to know, that the Kimball is go
' ing Into more homs than all other hlch-
grade maks combined. The output of
' the factory exceeds 25.CC0 Instruments
yearly.- The Kimball received highest
r-cnors at tne world 3 Columbian Expo
sition, and more recertly at the Omaha
Exposition. We feel that I Is not over
stating the matter to say that the Kim
ball Is as perfect an Instrument as human
agencies can construct.
These are some of the reasons, briefly,
why we selected these three great pianos
for our leaders.
We have In addition to these superb In
struments about twenty-five ether makes
of plnnos. including the reliable Decker,
the beautiful Vosc. the new Hobart M.
Cable, and new Victor, the new Schumann,
the Hlnze. the Crown (the piano with the
many tones), the Fease. the Whitney, etc.
We believe that It Is possible for us to
suit every taste, desire, whim or caprice
that enters Into thp selection of si niano.
