. 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.

of French refugees, and another

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.

Tho bill Introduced In the senate by
Albert J. 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

entirely to the. Individual states. Sen
ator Buverldge challenged attention by
his statement that there are now Hour

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

that the states shiulil bo left to put

employed In factories thau the census

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

little bodies like the bodies of lepers.
