Sioux City Journal, Thursday on the incoming Norfolk train there was a row which for a time caused intense excitement among the passengers and trainmen, At Emerson a gang of river men engaged in surfacing the track got on the train to come to Hubbard. Three of the number were drunk, and got into a fight with two brakesmen on the rear platform of the coach. The train was running twenty miles an hour, The fight was a desperate one, and just as one of the brakesmen and his combatant were clinched in a scuffle down on the floor, and when 1t looked as though the next instant both men would pitch off the platform, Charley Ransom, the conductor, came up and reaching out of the door grabbed the section man and pulled him inside. At this all three of the men jumped on Ransom, and before he had time to defend himself, he was down on the floor of the car and the fallows on top of him, Just at this excit- ing juncture of affairs the brakesmen and AR passengers made a simultane- ous attack en the section men and they were soon begging for mercy. The three men who fomented the trouble wero pretty badly pounded ::Y. the brakesmen B . ot Ta acms goad Lioks, whils ey succeeded in escaping without marks. Ransom had his clothes torn, and that was the sum total of his hurts, It wasa lively scrimmage for a few minutes and caused great excitement while it lasted IO Q NOTICES.

Even the innocuous grass snake, entirely free from venom, is subject toattack. T presume it 18 the old scriptural idea of bruising the serpent’s head.” “All snakes aro net dangerous?”’ “By no means. To suspect overy snake of being poisonous is entirely ridiculous, If every child were taught at school which are harmless and which are venomous there would be a very different state of affairs. The distinction is entire- ly neglected in the schools, and it seems to me most remarkable that such should be the casa. Nothing can be more important than the knowledge of of such difference. It is the general im- pression, for instance, that the snake stings with his tongue If the slightest attention were paid to the construction of the animal this folly would be at once discarded. The tongue so popularly be- lieved to be the instrument of terror, serves simply as a guide, The tongue is composnd of two hair-like parts, ending in a great neavous composition, : ““T'he fact that not every snake is pois- onous is known toalmost everybody, but in a dangerous one the Y;:iwn is seated and originated in glands behind the eyes whence it is led through a channel to an- other smaller gland seated between the root of the fang, or hollow tooth, and a small moveable ‘{mnenthchml to the max- illiary bone. One or two fangs are in ac- tion, but as soon as one should break the next one of the same construction—there are no other teeth but poisonous-fangs found in the upper jaw—takes its place. The pressure of the fang against the bane causes the gland to secrete o drop of poi- won, which runs directly through “the tooth into the wound, paralyzing the bit- ten part after some time. “A good deal hus been said about the charming power with which snakes are said to bo endowed, and which is said have its seat in the eyes of the m[:lilu, “The eye of a snake, especially of a poisonous one, has certainly somothing fascinating if accurato attention is given only to that organ. But that it has the power of charming can not be true, be- cause it is much too small to be immedi- ately observed - to such an extent. The word ‘charm’ i this caso signifies noth- ing but the state of terror into which man or beast is thrown through the unex- pected sight of the reptile, as 1 once had a good opportunity to expofience in the forest of Central America, My dog found a0 armadillo (dasypus) and cl it into a hole, but in the same moment a large snake (Irigonocepalws alyoz) rushed out CHEA —1i They always have the NO STAIRS TO CLIMB of it and |»rv\u|rml to strike. 1 was al most paralyzed from terror and astonish- ment, and not able to move until my dog seized the snake, unfortunately fo its own destruction. The bushmaster, as the snake is trequently called, bit the poor dog twice, the effects of the pioson killing 1t in loss than half an hour, “The snake having done the mischief, tried to get away, but I had by this time recovered myself, and a woll-directed shot made him harmless forever. He measured six feotifour inches inlengthand seven inches in circumference. * The en- tire affair did not last longer than about two minutes, but the eyos of the snake I nover noticed. 1 only saw the tremen- dous reptile throwing back the broad and triangular head, and playing out the tongue with lightnin, tiko rapidity. An- other time I observed oneof the splendid grass green zoas ‘‘xiphosoma caoina” as he was hidden between tho leaves of a bread-nut tree *‘brosimum alicastrium”, trying to catch a bird, “The littlo fellow could apparently seo nothing but the tongue of the snake a8 it was moved worm-like about to at- tract tho attention of the bird, A few moments later, the latter came close onough an was seized immediately by the snake, which, carrying off its prey, l{’im\p- peared between the thick foliage of the tree. “The manner in which most of the p onous snakes capture their food is i TR passing animal or bird, and, if close enough, to strike it, The snake does not even try to hold the prey, bnt, knowing the terribie offects of the bite, leta it run and croops up to the doad or' dying creature to swaliow it The latter process consumes considerable time, as the teeth of the reptile are not constructd to masticate and the prey consequently must be swallowed entire. ““Non-poisonous snakes either await thior prey also or chase it into some crev- ice, whero it is caught and swallowed, cither alive or after being killed through the powerful encircling power of the snake,” Sl oL Although Pozzoni’s medicatod complexion powder is porfoctly harmloss and non-explo- ivo, il 1 goos off aud makes o good roport.

This establishment not only se- cures the cream from the vicinity of Brownville, but it also buys the cream from the farmers in the northern portion of Richardson county. They pay eight- teen cents a pound for cream when Kalls City froquently pays these same farmers but 124 conts a pound for butter. In this way nearly all the cream that has heretofore been made ' into butter and brought to Falls City now goes to Brown- ville. This is the one reason that butter is 80 scarce here. Humboldt also has a creamery, It is possible that Falls City, that we have been urging for a year in this matter, may wake up to its interest and establish a creamery. A The Blair Bridge, The engineer in charge of the 8. 'C, & P. bridge at Blair informs the Missouri Valley Defender that the bridge would be ready for running trains by the first of November, The steam shovel was being worked incessantly and tho filling in of the trestlework on the west side of the river was almost completed. On the cast side the trestles were almost ready for the laying of the track except where the washout occurred, which would be ready in a few days.
