J. Hasek of Korbels, in addition to being an excellent rifle shot, is a woman pos- sessed of more than the ordinary amount of courage.

The little one was playing on the porch in front of the Hasek home on Friday morning when a rattler crawled up from the yard and was making for the babe, when the mother appeared Mrs. Hasek instantly realized that the life of her child was in danger and that prompt action was necessary to save it. Hurrying back into the house, she possessed herself of a 22-caliber rifle and nolselessly re- turned to the door. The snake was almost within striking distance of the baby when Mrs. Hasek raised the rifle, took hurried aim and fired. The bullet broke the reptile's neck. The snake carried eight rattles. A TR SR VALLEJO WANTS TO CHANGE' ITS CHARTER PROVISIONS May Provide for Recall Act, Cut Out Mayor's Veto Power and Increase Police Force. VALLEJO, Aug. 1l1.—After eight years’ trial the citizens of Vallejo have come to the conclusion that they made a mistake in inserting in their city charter a provision giving the Mayor absolute veto power. This char- ter, the only one of its kind in the country, has attracted wide attention from the students of government. A commission, consisting of three members of the Board of City Trustees and three of the citizens who drew up the charter nine years ago, is now holding sesslons and will draw up amendments. It is proposed to submit to the people amendments increasing the police'force by three men and rais- ing salaries all around for the officers, giving the city the power to own a commercial electric Mghting plant, do its street work under the Vrooman act, to make the Superintendent of Streets an elective office and to insert the im- perative recall mandate for unpopular city officials.
