HOW ANTS KILL A SNAKE.
The Insect Battalions Torture it to heath
and'' hen Strip the Skin from the Rudy.
Thatants, can aotually kill snakes is
a hard tiring to believe. There is irresist-
ible evidence, however, that they do, and
scientists have discovered that the snake
has hardly a more dangerous enemy. The
large red.browu forest ant of the sort that
s the most fatal to the amphibians,.and 'a
curious thing about the .attack of these tiny
creatures on this comparatively enormous
reptile is that they kill it for food and not
on account of any natural antipathy.
When some of the ants catch sighb of a
'make they arouse the whole community at
once. In platoons and battalionsthe little
fellows set upon the reptile, striking their:
nippers intoits body and 4. a at thousands
of points at once. bio rapidly end'eoncert-
edly is-thisone that the snake has no chance'
at allofescaping. It is like a thousand
eleotrio needles in him atonue. The snake
soon becomes exhausted and dies ignomini-
ously, ..
Then the ants set harder at work, this
may seem a strange story, but it is true.
They begin to tear off the flesh in small
pieces, gradually stripping off the skin and
working inside of it. Not until they have.
carried away everything except the 'bones
and the skin itself dc they leave it.
The New Maxim Gun.
The new Maxim on is ono of the most
terrible weapons known to man. In appear-
ance it is a mere toy, It can fire 600 shots
per minute, so that if every man of, a regi-
ment were eupplied with it 36,000,000 shots
could be fired in an hour, each bullet being
capable of piereiug 40 inches of oak. 1f
even a small percentage of the bullets did
their deadly work, war on a large scale
would be impossible, and armies would
cease to meat. So long as the trigger le
held back the guu. will fire automatically
as long as amm,nieion is supplied. When
the trigger is released the firing ceases.
The gunmen be unlimbered and firing with.
in 58 seconds of the giving of the word of
command, It will prove ofspecial value
in a mountainous country, where afe w well.
placed guns would' wipe out an army,- It
is no exaggeration to say that 100 men
armed with the gun could :now down 10,000
cavalrymen with ease. The possibilities of
the machine seem unlimited, and its extra-
ordinary effectiveness is well conveyed by
a military expert, who was present at the
hast teat of the gun. He says : " It is the
most deadly instrument of war Ihave ever
seen. I have been cold it was ouly a toy,
whereas' its accuracy and reliability are
simply appalling." Each bullet wail pieroe

The skull,' with the nail driven through
the think bone, hi now among the hospibal'e
eolleetlon of curiosities, A party of lead.
ing physicians last week examined the
skull and pronounced the case one of the
most remarkable on record.
The nail is driven through what ie known
to anatomists as the anterior froutanella of
the skull, the apot on the crown of the
head which is soft in infancy, The nail is
aboub an inch and a half long. It is so
corroded that the rust cum be sealed off with
a knife. The nailhead is imbedded in the
outside ot the skull, the bone having appar-
ently grown thickly about' it, making ib
evident that the nail entered the head when
the man was a child. The membrane on
the, outside of the bone grew completely
over the nail, and the curly black hair of
the patient waved over the head with nob a
soar apparent anywhere. Neither hair nor
membrane gave any Mut of the secrebunder
them,
ON TILE' INTERNAL 5010TA00
of the skull the bone had heaped up about
the nail to little ridges as if In an attempt
to wall out the. foreign substance. The
attempt was ,evidently too much for the
tiny bone coils, for the ridges are so slight
as to be eeareely noticeable to the' unprao.
Beed eye.
The nail penetrated directly into that
part of the brain known as the seat of
thought, entering the graymilder for the
distance of three-quarters of. an inch. No
membrane had formed about the nail as a
protection for the brainsobstance. Instead,
for some distance about the nail the brain
tissue was rust stained. There were no
symptoms pointing to .this condition, - how-
ever, the macon his entrance to the hospital
being of sound mind and apparently a
person of fair intelligence.
Franoie Mellon, so the hospital records
show, was admitted as a sufferer from
pneumonia. Ho was a laborer and hid
lived all his 111000 New York. Friendless
and withoutmoney for medical attention,
he went to the Twenty•eixth street dispen-
sary for the outdoor: poor. The authorities
saw that the, -man was very .ill and
immediately assigned him to the Metro.
politan hospital. He walked into the.
hospital olfioe and was able to give an
excellent account of himself and the
symptoms of his disease. His case was
diagnosed -as: pneumonia and he was sent to
the ward under the care of Dr. Crossan.
Forty hours after entering the hospital he
died. For the latter part of his illness he
was delirious. Real regret was felt by all
who had come in coated with him.
In is the custom when death ensues soon
after entrance to the hospital to hold a
post•mortetn examination, which was done.
The examination of the brain resulted in
the discovery of the nail. It was a most
wonderful discovery and the entire staff of
hospital name in to view the skull and
brain with the nail deeply covered with
rust penetrating the half-inch thickness of
bone.
The nurses racked their memories for re-
eolleotiou of complaiote of headache on the
part of the man. Headache was one of the.
symptoms whiob he had not mentioued.
Some one .remembered asking if his head
ached and the recollection was that he had
said he was never troubled with headaches.
According to medical law the man should
have been, a maniac, yet he was of
PER0EOTLY SOUND DSIND.
Speculation was keen as to how the nail
found its way into the skull. The most.
plausible theory was that when an infant
the deceased had fallen, striking against
the upturned nail on the snfb part of the
head. Owing to ignorance orueglocton the
part of the parents bhe nail was not ex.
emoted. Medical' attention was not sought.
In the natural order ot events Franoie
Mellon should have died then but be lived
on,all,tneoneeoes of the intruder in his
brain. Probably no one ever knew of :the
nail in his head until the physiulao's saw,
lifting back the brain cep, revealed it to
wondering science. To the eye the nail
looks as though it had been hammered
direotlythrougn the bone. The physician
pointed out evidences that showed to the
experienced the tact that the nail had been
lu the hone for many yeare.
" Until the child is two years old," said
the medical man, "the skull is at that
place quite soft and the nail could easily
have penetrated the head. You see how
deeply the mil head is set in the bone and
bow the bone inside the skull has grown
about it. It would take many years to
result iu such a formation. The remarkable
thing about itis that the man was of sound
mind, never troubled with headache and
until his last i Ines amen of robust health.
