'NEW YORK, Aug. 18. (Special.)
Tn port today from the far east the
British freighter Bolton Castle
brought & cargo of animals and a
nake Btory that wound about the
'whole bloomln' orew. It was a tale
of a, boa eonstrictor, and Captain
Alexander Howe declared it to be as
true as a meridian.
The boa. which was 33 feet long,
was loaded with two pythons at Sing
apore. .Kight Chinese carried the boa
aboard. It Is customary in shipping
big: snakes to feed each one a piff
before placing: them aboard ship.
Then they sleep peacefully on the
voyage. Pigs were supplied for the
three snakes and it was figured that
they would sleep aJl the way across
the Pacifc to Panama, where other
pigs could be obtained. But the
Chinese apparently decided to eat the
pips themselves. At any rate the
snakes went hungry.

When the Bolton Castle was In the

Richard West, an apprentice, was
at the wheel, and something struck
his leg. It was dark, and rainy. Ha
thought king- Thong; fox, a. playful
monkey in the cargo, was about and
gave a gentle kick. Swish went the
boa'e tail and West went sprawling.
Second Officer William Stoddard
heard West hit the deck and discov
ered the cause. He gave an alarm
and all hands sought to snare the boa,
but it -was as slippery as the deck.
"Sparks" Allardyce, the wireless op
erator, had heard snakes could be
charmed by muEio and started the
eli id' s phonograph. The boa simply
Jazzed about.
Monkey Elnties Serpent.
Captain Howe decided the snake
would have to be fed. -A small mon
key was tied to the bridge, it being
figured that if the snake swallowed
the monkey the snake would be made
fast by the line. But the monkey
refused to be swallowed and eluded
the lunges of the snake.
Finally the snake danced over the
aide, hanging bylts tall. Hurried or
ders were given for it to be chopped
away. With the swing of an as
most of it dropped into the sea.
Three days later the two pythons
died of starvation in their crates.
Their passing was like the clearing
of a typhoon to tho cfew. Monkey

call he requested the cleric to record
him as voting "Aye."
Mr. Turner had said repeatedly he
would neither vote for nor against
ratification unless it was evident bis
vote was needed, but in that event
would vote for the amendment.
Suffragists launched an unroarious
demonstration.
A motion to adjourn until 10 A. M.
tomorrow was offered after the of
ficial vote was announced. The apeak-
put the Question, called for the
ayes" and "noes" and announced the
otion carried unanimously.
Leeal Battle Possible.
The intention, to attack the legality
of ratification if the house failed to
rescind Its action was discussed to-
icht. The clause of the Tennessee
constitution on which would be based
the test is article 2, section 32. It
follows:
"No convention or general assem
bly shall act on any amendment of
the constitution of the United States
proposed by congress to the several
tates unless such convention or
general assembly .shall have been
ected after such amendment is sub
mitted."
The present legislature was elected
In November, 1918, and the suffrage
amendment was not submitted until
months afterward.
The article was adopted in 1870, as
result of the ratification by the leg
islature of the 14th amendment after
the civil war.
Citizens of Tennessee were not
represented in that legislature, it is
said.
Clause Held Nullified.
The supreme court of the United
States, in deciding a case originating
in Ohio, held void a clause in the con-
titution of that state relating to ref-
erendums on amendments. Based on
pinions by W. L. Frierson, solicitor-
general of the United States, and
State Attorney-General Thompson,
Governor Roberts called the leglsla-
ure in extraordinary session to act

assured the supreme

Care and Responsibility.
HTHE responsibility attached to the preparing, of a remedy for infants and children
is undoubtedly greater than that imposed upon the manufacturer of remedies
for adults whose system is sufficiently strong to counteract, for a time at least, any
injurious drug. It is well to observe that Castoria is prepared today, as it has been
for the past 40 years, under the personal supervision of Mr. Chas.' H. Fletcher.
What have makers of imitations and substitutes at stake? What are their
responsibilities? To whom are they answerable? They spring up today, scatter
their nefarious wares broadcast, and disappear tomorrow.
Could each mother see the painstaking care with which the prescription for
Fletcher's Castoria is prepared: could they read the innumerable testimonials from,
grateful mothers, they would never listen to the subtle pleadings and false arguments
of those who would offer an imitation of, or substitute for, the tried and true
Fletcher's Castoria.

Mr. . Fulton was here yesterday and
