SNAKES' VENOM Bronx Zoo Curator Extracts 120 Drops of Poison From 33 Rep. tiles to Make Eemedj. New York, Oct. 9. One hundred and twenty drops of poison were taken from 24 copperheads and nine water moccasins in the rep tile house of the Bronx Zoological Gardens as the first step in a pro cess to be completed in Brazil and which will consume nine months for the making of a serum to coun teract snake bites. Several score visitors to tbe Zoo witnessed the operation, which was j recorded by half a dozen motion' picture cameras. Working with! his bare hands, Dr. Raymond L. Ditmars, curator of reptiles at the j zoo, seized the snakes one by one between the thumb and index fin ger of his right hand and forced them to strike their fangs against a cloth spread over the mouth of a glass. Whenever a reptile struck with lightning-like rapidity, the poison could be seen running down into the funnel. As he worked tbe curator conversed with newspaper men. "This will probably be a great surprise and blow to most of you," he said, "but- as far as - science is concerned, the old theory that whisky acted as an antidote for snake poison , has been exploded. !

Philadelphia, Oct 9. The near-1 est approach to unearthing con temporary records of Christ yes terday was announced by Dr. George Byron Gordon, director of, the Museum of the University of Pennsylvania. The discovery was made by Dr. Clarence Stanley Fisher, director of excavation at Beth-Shan, in Palestine. The discovery was the burial place of Antiochus, the first cousin of Herod the Great Antiochus in all probability. Dr. Gordon assert ed, was one of the men charged by Herod with directing the slaughter of the children in Bethlehem as narrated by Matthew in a vain effort to kill the Christ child who had been described by the wise men as "The King of the Jews." "The interesting part," Dr. Fish er wrote, "is that the father, Phal lion. was killed in this district during a battle with Pampey, and his son Antiochus was supposed to have died here some time later. The discovery of his coffin in our cemetery proved this point beyond a doubt. So far as I know this is thfc first sarcophagus of the Herod-, ian family that has been found." Fined Philistine Sarcophagi. Dr. Gordon 'also announced that Dr. Fisher has found, in deeper levels of occupation, the first known sarcophagi of the Philis tines. Readers of the bible will re call that they defeated King Saul on Mount Gilboa, which overshad ows the ancient fortress city, and cutting off his head, hauled his body to the city walls. Levels of six cities so far have been found at Beth-Shan, Dr. Gor don declares while more are known to be below. The site is said to have been occupied for a longer continuous period than any other place of human habitation. It was also the most fought over spot in the world, since it serves as the gateway between Mesopotamia end Egypt and was necessary to the conquest of Palestine.

Having made a primary campaign to secure mv nomination, from. votes passed upon by regular elec tion officials. I do not believe au independent should be nominated, on an illegal petition. I am.therFf. fore, going to try to compel Thorn? as Hughes to come before some one beside himself to judge the suEU ciencv of his netition. - lLi I find many of his petitions apt even sworn to. I find enottgn names without addresses to throw out his petition entirely. I even found people signing who gave ad dresses at Muscatine, Iowa. The law requires that the signers of Uib- statement at the bottom of all Udei pendent petitions shall give their residences correctly. This has no been done. Jiot 100 Legal Signers! f "If the lawi is followed. Mr Hughes will not have 100 legal signers on his petition. The law requires that he have over 800 qual-a ified voters as signers, to make hit petition legal. I wish the matter decided legally, and for that reason- make my objections to his petition. "The law provides that a contest against certificates or nominations and nomination patrons shall b filed with the secretary of state and; then this contest will be referred' by him to the three county judges' in Rock Island, Mercer and Hen derson counties for their decision."j Attacks Citizenship. A copy of the objections among other things charges that Rev. Hughes Is not a citizen of the Unit ed States, the paragraph reading, as follows: ,,,, "And for the reason of the above objection the said Harry M. Mc-. McCaskrin hereby states that said Thomas Hughes has not in good faith, renounced all allegiance ti( the sovereign ruler of Great Brit ain and having been a native of England he, the said Thomas Hughes, still a citizen of Bog-. land, and is not a citizen or the United States of America, and not a citizen of Illinois." . .
