SNAKE IN CINEMA
If a black snake <6£t long were discovered among the seats- of an ordinary cinema there wtould p%bably be considerable commotion. But in the picture palace at Darwin such an occurrence failed to qause any excitement. A woman wfyo was sitting upstairs in the European section noticed the great reptile crajwling over a row of seats. Quite calroly she pointed it out to Captain Gregory, a pearler, who was sitting next tb her. Captain Gregory at once seized it by the tail and broke its back across a seat. Then he flung it out of thie window. The audience settled down again to enjoy the picture.
