^?DEADLY HATRED EXISTS BETWEEN
THESE CREATURES,
rlatr Active Little Qa=<ir=?5>? Ii Al
;:.<;ji Ai'.T=;-i the Aggressor sad It
Geaeraiix the Virtui^-Esropcaai ia
i&dia Du Kot rear the Cobra.
Ott tue very lirst ruorulug. as the
tourist tiops down in bis loug armchair
ou, say. tbe elevated verandu of the
Espiauade hotel. Bombay., be will find
tbe inevitable juggler appealing to biai
with uplifted eyes, accoinpauied by bis
bag. bis basket and the other parapher
jaiia of his craft, und. though tbe man
jo growing trick may be more myste?
rious, tbe right between the cobra and
che mongoose wiii be more interesting.
Tbe inborn mutual hatred between
these creatures must be supposed to
serve some purpose iu tbe wise econo?
my of nature, and yet would look very
strange did we uot know that similar
aversions exist between other more
famili?r creatures, nud for some rea?
sons not always apparent. Irrespective i
of tbe danger of it. why does tbe mon?
goose attack the cobr?: a live mon?
goose is said never to touch u dead
Cobra in tbe way of food, and tbe bris?
tly carcass of a mongoose is probably
too tough for even tbe capacious diges
tiou of his natural udversury. We can
ouly accouut for it, iherefose, on tbe
same priucipie that tbe best bred game
dogs wiii uot touch the flesh of the
quarry that they are so foud of hunt?
ing.
The active iittle mougoose is almost
always the aggressor, for tbe compar?
atively awkward cobra, uuless be got
biro asleep, would probably never think
of attacking bis more uluibie opponent,
und it is generally the mougoose tbut
is victor iu these encounters. Though
tbe cobru rears bis bead, expands bis
hood umbrella-like to tbe utmost und
hisses viciously, bis dabs at the enemy
seem misdirected aud aimless, for the
wily mongoose suddenly becomes dou?
ble hi9 uatural size by the erection of
bis tough, bristly coat in a way that
seems quite to deceive even tbe wise
serpent as to what tuay be bristles aud
what uot. it is only just to say fcr
the cobra, though, that if bis fangs
were not estrsciod or tbe poison giauds
destroyed a successful ohr.uce peck
wouid soou finish the luoiigdose iu spire
of bis activity.
Tbe natural nnlmosity is no doubt
greatly toned down in the specimens
possessed by the Jugglers. Familiarity
breeds tolerauce. if uot contempt, ou
both sides, so that they must attuck
oue another with less ferocity tbau iu
their natural wild condition aud must
o/teu laug'li in their sleeves when the
farce Is over.
I had tbe good or bad luck to come
across lunuy cobras here and there, tbe
most of which I killed. Indeed, there
Is little to fear from a cobra iu tbe
opeu. If you do uot attack bim be is
uot likely to attack you uuless be tubes
it into his bead that you are goiug to
trend ou the tall of bis coat. It is a
popular delusion that a cobra, after
rearing buuselt, can Jump at tbe ene?
my. This be Is quite unable to do, for
the motion of tbe bead is uloug the arc
of a circle of which tbe radius extends
from tbe head to the part of tbe ser
peut toucbiug the ground.
On oue occasion during tbe war iu
upper Burma, wbeu restiug ou a small
tent bed or an eighty pound service
teut, I saw a cobra waikiug stealthily
into my parlor, as tbe spider would
sny to the fly, through the open door.
I sny "walking" advisedly, because
8erpeuts do actually walk on tbe end
of their ribs iustead of wriggliug along
after tbe fashion of worms. The pres?
ence of this snake naturally ereuted
quite a unsty feeilug, with such a nar?
row compass to move about iu, but tbe
snake did not get out ulive.
There are such lncfedible stories in?
vented about cobras in India aud so
extravagant, too, that one hesitates to
mention one's own more modest,
though truthful, c-pcriences, as not
quite thrilling enough to be placed ou
record.
My owu most creepy sousatiou was
at an up country station iu India. I
bad uewly arrived there from Burma
and was writing at nighttime on one
of the usual kinds of writing desks,
with drawers on each side and nu
empty interval below and between, tbe
desk being, us usual, placed uguinst
one of the walls of tbe room.
1 was dressed, moreover. In thin, hot
weather clothing, aud therefore partic?
ularly vulnerable to tbe bites of
suakes. My legs were lu tbe empty
space beneath tbe lid and in tbe inter?
val between the drawers ou either
side. But what was it that I suddenly
observed creeping rouud from the end
of tbe table to my right aud goiug into
the hollow almost lu touch with my
right foot? It wns a vile cobra. I
could not jump away on account of tbe
position lu which I was placed.
I at once realized that to move lu auy
way would probably rouse tbe serpent
Immediately to rear nnd strike. At
any rate, whether It was by calm cal?
culation or that I was too petrified with
horror to move, I never did move, n
muscle till, to my intense relief, die co?
bra got beyond my feet to the back of
the boilow against the wall'. Then I
moved away with less grace tbau agil?
ity and shouted to my bearer "Boy!
Boy!" nt the top of my voice, for It is
scarcely ueedful to tell that uot even
the common or garden beil rope has
yet penetrated Into the remote Mofos
sil stations of India, not to speak of
the electric press the button variety.
Hindoos, as n rule, are not fond of kill?
ing annkes, or anything else for that
matter. Indeed, they look upon the
cobra as sacred aud worship It In tbelr
purblind fashion, especially at the year?
ly festival of Xng Pancbaml, or the
feast of snakes, uaga being tbe Hin?
doos tauec word for a cobra.
At this time, however. One or two of
my servants were Mussulmans, wfcc
?ad ao great regard cither for cobras
or Hindoo*, aud vre soon hunted out
the cobra and dispatched him forth?
with.
Even tbe i venomous cobra can be
made a pet of. minus, if one is wise,
hi; fangs and poisou glands, and. as
for tbe mougoose. he is oue of the most
compnuiuuabie of wild beasts. There
is more xhau one variety of this auimal.
and they vary iu si;:e according to their
breed and geographical distribution.
One of tbe most interesting pets i had
of this kind was a mougoose that was
sent me from tbe sultaii of Lebei. uu
Arabian district some thirty ruiies from
our outpost ou Aden, when I was sta?
tioned iu that very sultry iocaiity. I
thought this Arabian variety was small?
er tbau those I bad seen in India.
Some peopie doubt if there cau be
any recovery from tbe full bite of a
grown cobra. The poisouous bored
fangs of this creature work ou a kiud
of binge aud are folded back ou Tbe
roof of tbe mouth when the animal is
in repose, but wbeu the cobra prepares
to strike the mere inecbaulsm of the
upper jaw iu opening the mouth raises
these folded tnugs. If tbe fangs then
hit the victim straight l fancy rec overy
must lie very rare. Uut there is not al?
ways a full complement of poison iu
the glands at the root of the fangs, and
every successive strike makes tbe
quantity less for the time being. Again,
tbe dress may catch up tbe greater por?
tion of tbe virus before the skin Is
reached, and lastly the fuugs may not
strike straight, and tbeu they are eas?
ily doubled up ou account of the jolat
spokeu of. so that iu such Instances tbe
front or outer portion of tbe faugs may
graze tbe skiu with perhaps no poison
at all.
I remember a strange thing bnppen
iug once regardiug tbe bite of a snake.
In a certain part of Baluchistan a rie
tnciimeut was iu search of a new site
for a temporary cuntonmeut in place
of the uudersirnbie one we then bad.
Tbull Chotiali. Ou our first camping
grouud we were seated ot dinner In?
side the mess tent, when a suddeu cry
was raised that oue of tbe camp follow?
ers had been bitten by a snake aimost
immediately outside tbe teut. Tbe
medical officer of the detachment, with
tbe kuife he was at tbe time boiding lu
his baud, rushed out nt once. Tbe
wound ~ai pinin enough on tbe man's
bare ieg.
He b?d been, native fashion, squat?
ting ou the ground, and had been bit?
ten on tile outside fleshy portion of the
leg n few inches above die ankle. The
major nt once made n shush ou each
side above nnd below tbe wound nud
cut a V shaped fid out of the poor
man'a leg within a few seconds of the
cry being raised. As we hud only gone
some dozen miles away from our pre?
vious beudqunrters aud as the detach?
ment was going ou still farther tbe
man was sent in next morning in a
dhooiie to tbe hosplta). where be lay
very 111 for some time, but eventually
recovered to a certain degree. As It
was nighttime and tbe other natives
got flurried tbe snake unfortunately es?
caped iu the durk. so I have always
wondered whether it was u cobra and
if the prompt excision saved the camp
follower's life.
Considering that over 20,000?think
of it?human lives are nunuully lost lu
India from wild beasts, a very great
portion of which is from veuoinous
suukes, it is at first surprising to see
tbe aimost complete immunity of Eu?
ropeans from snake bite9 iu that coun?
try, it must be borne iu mind, bow
ever, that there is only a mere haudful
(120,000 or so) of Europeans iu India
altogether, us against tbe vast number
of uatives, approaching tbe stupeudous
figures of 300,000,000. Tbe natives,
moreover, grope about lu the durk and
roam tbe jungles with.bare feet aud
?fteu bare everything else, a couditiou
of affairs that leaves them particularly
exposed to tbe bites of suakes. Be this
as it may, it is seldom one bears of
a death from snake bite among tbe Eu?
ropean portiou of tbe Indian popuia
tion.?Chambers' Journal.
The Heal As?tralla.
To catch tbe true spirit of Australia
one must pass beyond tbe metropolitan
cities, which are but tbe gates of the
eoutinent uud where life is uot strlk
iugiy dissimilar to that la innuj other
places inhabited by the same race, ex?
cept tbot democracy supreme has ren?
dered it more care free. The Austra?
lian, who is a grcut lover of sport und
outdoor life, sees to It (bat overwork
does not deprive him of either. That,
perhaps, Is tbe reason why be is robust
lu physique nud does not give oue the
impression of being subject to nervous
disorder. In n geueral way it may be
said that the agricultural part of tbe
country forms u belt arouud tbe coast,
broader by some buudreds of miles lu
tbe east tbau tbe west. From this re
glou lu good years many million bush?
els of wheat of tbe best quality are
shipped to England. Then you enter
tbe domain of forest nud plain whence
comes the wool, of which the clip In n
year has reached u value of $15,000,000
