A rancher by the name of Hens on , a branch of Spencer creek has killed ! thin spring seventeen rattlesnakes Last spring, however, he did better, for he Blew twenty-four of the rep ; tiles. Most of this year's kill was made In a den, but that there Is still ; another In the same vicinity Is con clusive from the fact that two young men while hunting Jack rabbits killed eight or nine. Spencer creek has long been known as a rattlesnake country. In fact there are many snakes nil around Spencer Butte, for east and south of the main mountain a number' have been killed this year. In early days the country literally swarmed in places, according to old timers, hut row there are compara tively few. TJils year, however, there seems to have been an unuBtinl num ber of snukes, probably because Lane county Is dry a climate that the rat tlers like especially well. Last month one was killed a mile out of town In a dry ditch with n lit tle water. The snake had come down to drink. It is not know i how ninny rattles it had. Some that Hess killed had twelve, but most of them wure yonnj;. Judging from what Ms sa'.l the Bnakes around Spencer creek ore yf tho more sluggish nature, and while as poisonous as the black mountain rattlers found so often In the Cas cades, are not so eneivt n. ami ii.it so often looking for trnubl.t.

Tho situation at CaBa Ulanca contlnueauserlous. Suv oral vessels arrived here -today, one parrying 250 Jewish and a number of French refugees, and another steamer with 545 persons on board. Including many Europeans. They re port the situation most alarming, the town still being In tho power of the natives. , All Europeans have been taken on board a vessel In the har bor. In spite of tho presonce of a French cruiser In the harbor largo body of Moors attacked the refugees ns they were leaving, hut soon desisted, pro ceeding to the Christian cemetery, and dragging out a number of corpses from the vaults and began to burn them. A body of soldiers arrived on the scene anil fired on tho Moors, a number of whom were killed, and tho hand dispersed. The cruiser did not bombard, owing to the requests of consuls, who feared repkrlsals. Oran, Algeria, Aug. S.

THE child labor problem bus been brought t j the front In Anier . lea recently by the discussion In the senate ou tho sub ject, by the strong recommendations of Governor Charles E.

Heveridgo of Iudlnun has been much discussed In the pre.4s, and the question of tho wisdom of national legislation on the subject has been raised. Some claim that It Is n prob lem whose solution can best he left entirely to the. Individual states. Sen ator Buverldge challenged attention by his statement that there are now Hour ly 2.000,000 breadwinners under fifteen years of ago In the United States ami that of these almost 700,000 are en gaged In work other than agriculture. "Child labor on the farm is good," says the senator. "This hill does not strike at that. It strikes only at child slavery In factories, mines and swent shops." Senator Beverldge's plnn of getting at the child labor evil Is to prohibit by federal statute any Interstate com merce In articles which are the prod net of such labor. Some who recog nize the force of tho senator's nrgii meuts against child lnlior maintain that the states shiulil bo left to put reforms on tills subject In execution and that his bill would.

Child labor laws exist already In many states, aud lu several uew gov ernors lunugurtitcd In January made recouimendatious as to suctl legislation. I Tho factory Inspector of l'eunsyl vaula lu a recent 'address stated that lu the tobacco making establishments of Pittsburg' children as young as eight and nine years uuuld tie fouud at work. Missouri has an autl cbuu labor law, but tho labor unions are agitating for Its amendment and more rigid enforce ment of the statute.. Senator Berertdge Illustrated his speech In tho senate with photographs showing the conditions amid which children sometimes work. He points out thnt as tho result of labor undct such conditions ninny die, while others grow up dwarfed, crooked and weak, their minds d.illed ami clouded and their souls darkened and vicious. lie maintains thut many more children are employed In factories thau the census figures show. The aenntbr tells of a tin- girl seven years old who worked twelve hours a day In fl canning fac tory In Maryland, a stnto having over 200 establishments employing children. Jehu Spnrgo, author of "The Hitter Cry of the Children," tells of n little girl In Atlanta, tia., who said. "When I work nights I's too tired to undress when I gets home, nnd so I goes to bed with my clothes on." The noted writer, H. O. Wells, says: "In Massachusetts little naked boys are packing cloth Into blenching vats In a hath of chemicals that bleaches their little bodies like the bodies of lepers.
