Pois onous reptiles sprinkled with sacred meal .were held in th mouths and wreathed the necli and bedies of the Indian dancei during tho ceremony. Prayers were bestowed on tliein and they were turned loose to carry the "benedictions" to the "snake mother," and the 'spider woman ot tho underworld," who is the 'weaver of the clouds."

The Al bany team has u strong aggrega tion this year and in order to fur nish the Albany fans Btroug enough competition they took the Vancouver franchise of the Inter state league over after the Van couver club failed to show enough clafcs. They bad to take the club'd siauuing at mat time which was .seven losses and no wins. They did not car especially about the standing only worrying about the better games that the league would atfurd. After losing tneir first two games upon entering the league they took life and defeated sev' eral of the strongest clubs. Sa lem was forced to bow to them and for that reason Frisco Edwards, manager of the Senators, has scheduled another game to get re venge.
