yo' wooW lise to see it done ?" and,
rroerring a ood iu the attiirmative,
tlwr distiller led the way in front of
liiscxbi:;.
S andiag np against the door was
a kmc I*l- with a noose at the end.
The distiller took it down, shook it
for a moment in his hands aud look
ed around. "I've caught lots of
snakes with this thing," he said.
"If you look around right sharp
you'll uud one somewhere."
About foi iy feet away the sharp
eyes of the distiller caught sight of
a shining skin. The snake was a
big one and was sunning himself by
tlc side of a log. Motioning silence
the distill r crept up to within pole's
length and dangled the noose under
t:e snake's nose. His snakeship
slirred uneasily, raised his head and,
seeing thee ml. began striking at it. i
Pii'lt/ sjjii Lu head went through 1
the noose. The fisherman had a
bite and he pulled. In a moment
the huge, snake was dangling in the
air and a blow or t\v) against a tree
finished him.
A PHETTY mo YARN.
The distiller smiled as he replaced
the pob against the cabin. ''Thai's
no use in gettin* scared," ho said.
"I don't mind 'em, I caught a big
fellow last summer in just that way,
A medical student from Ponnsvl-
Xanv was op yero and wauled one to
take home with him. 1 caught one,
stuffed him and coiled him up in a
cheese box, and lie was the most
beautiful snake yo' ever saw. They
don't bother mo much. Sometimes
one or two of 'em go to bed with
me and roll themselves up in the
blankets, but that's not bin'. There's
only one snake in these yere moun
tains that I've got a spite against,"
ami tho distiller looked solemn.
"TVat snake has got to die or I
have. I've sworn it," and the man
rubbed a tear from his eye with the
sleeve of his course flannel shirt and
shook his head thoughtfully. "That
snake killed my dog."
There was a pause of a moment
or two, and then the old distiller,
brighteuiog up, wont on with his
story. "This yere snake is a mon
ster. He's twenty feet if he is an
' 'nch. I sighted him about a month
' ago, or rather he sighted me. I was
climbin' up youder among the rocks,
| when I heard a rattle and looked
; around. Tliesnako was just spring
in'. I jumped back just iu tune,
i and he went by like a fl:*sh. Scared?
I reckon I was, slightly. I never
saw such a monster. lie looked as
thick as that log over yonder. He
| was like a big black cloud and cov
! ered up the sun almost as complete
ly. I didn't see that snake again
, until two weeks ago. Do yo' believe
jit ? I heard an uucommon noise
■up the mountain. I looked up there
and saw a whole army of them.
Thar must have beeu a hundred
snakes and they were com in' down
with the monster at the head. I
reckon he's the king of the snake
tribe on these yire mountains. I
' got Inside and crawled up to that
little window over the do'r, Down
they came, I fired into 'eiu aDd kill
ed nine of 'em at one shot and the
others glided off in a big hurry.
That same night I heard my little
dog yelpin' outside. I opened the
do'r, and there he was shiverin'and
i shakin and that big snake all in a
heap right alongside of him and
lo kin'down at him with his big
mouth wide opened. I rushed foi
my gun, but befo' I got back snake
and dog were both gone."
Ti.c distiller stopped again and
shook his head sadly. "He was a
good dog and I miss him. What
| became of him V Why, 1 don't reck
on thar's much doubt about that.
He went down that snake's throat
and that's the reason that snake's
got to die."
A WOMAN KILLS 480 SNAKES.
This story may sound big, but it
is nothing by the sklo of some of
the stories which are told about
here as the truth. People who have
c!iratcd about the mountains to any
extent will tcK you that the snakes
will stare out at you from under
every rock. Sometimes the heads
are are as thick as the fingers on a
man's hand and as the wicked-look
ing little eyes are enough to strike
terror into anyone who sees them
for the first time. A story is told
in Leesburgof a womau's adventure
up the mountain. She went out
one day to pick huckleberries, and
before she was aware of it, was sur
rounded by rattlesnakes. She had
wandered near a den of thera an I
there was no backing out of it. Ii
was kill or be killed, and she prefer
red the former. Grasping a thick
stick in her hand she awaited aetiuu.
Ilad the snakes attacked her several
at a time nothing could have saved
her, but, fortunately for her, thev
began the onslaught singly. A
snake would hardly coil himself up
for a spring when she would knock
him over. One after another they
fell dead, until they laid in swaths
all around her. As fast as possible
she backed out from her unpleasant
situation, but not tt itil the last
snake of the den was killed was she
safe. She counted the dead and
they numbered four hundred and
eighty. That lady doesn't pick
huckleberries on the mountains any
more. When the snake 3 are in a
half torpid condition it does not re
quire much courage to clean out a
den, but an immense amount of
nerve is necessary to beard real livo,
hungry rattlesuakes in their dens.
FIGHTING THE STORM.
"A fearful day, neighbor Sheffer!"
"You say truly, neighbor Bait;
there lias leen nothing like it since
the great storm of '24. Heaven have
pity on us !"
So muttered to eacli other the vil
lagers of Seckendorf, JIS they crouch •
ed behiud the rocks along the liver
bank in the gray of that wild Match
morning, with a hurricane, such as
no living man could remember, rush
ing and roaring down the valley.
Young and old, even babies and bed
ridden grandmothers, were all gath
ered there ; for it wa3 no time to
linger witniu walla which cracked
and groaned witn every blast, and
might at any moment come crash
ing down 1n one mass of ruin.
Even in that sheltered spot tho
jackets of the men and the long hair
of the women flapped in tho wind
lileo torn canvass ; but out in the
open ground the fury of the storm
| was feai fnl to look at. Tall trees
were bending like whifS, huge
j stones rolling down the surrounding
ridges, twigs, and even large branch*
ea flying through tho air like straws;
j while on the unsheltered uplands,
more than one shepherd's hut had
neon literally blown to pieces, and
lay strewn far nnd wide over the
j hillside, a helpless wreck of sliutter-
I til timbers.
But even more fearful was the
sight of the flooded river below,
which, swollen by weeks of rain,
and lashed into fury by the tremen
dous gale, went foaming down the
narrow valley with a roar that seem
ed to shake the very rocks that wall
ed it in ; and as the peasants stood
gazing at it, one of them a stalwart
herdsman of tho upland pastures,
pointed with a sudden paleness on
his sunburned features, to the little
cottage that stood on an island in
tho centre of the stream, at tho win
dow of which a human face had just
shown itself.
"It's the ferryman and his family,'
whispered one. "They haven't had
time to escape."
"God help them, then!" muttered
another; "it's all over with them
now !"
At that moment the clatter of
hoofs was heard along the stony
road, and a single horseman came
tearing down toward the bank, his
white hair and tlie horse's mane
streaming on tho wind like a pen
non. A murmur ran through the
crowd as he approached : "It's our
master—it's the Count of Hildes
hiem !"
Even before lie reached the spot,
the Count had evidently seen the
danger of the family ; for his
tlrst words were :
"Two hundred thnlera to the man
who saves them. Who will go ?"
The men looked at each other in
silence. There were no faint hearts
among them ; but the bravest mail
might well have shrunken from that
whirl of foam, in whose grasp the
strongest boats would have been
nothing. More than one eye kindled,
more than one hand clenched itself ;
but nobody stepped forward. At
that moment a huge wave went
roaring up over tho island, and
striking tho c ttago wall, toro it
away like paper, while the shrieks
of tlie children and their mother,
who were now plainly visible, were
heard even above tho howling of the
storm.
"Will you let them perish before
your eyes ?" ronved the Count. "If
I were ten years younger I'd go my
self."
Just thrn a solitary figure, which
scuntd to have risen through the
eaith so suddenly did it appear,
was seen on the very brink of the
river, launching a small boat. In
another instant boat and man van
ished together into the whirlwind of
spray that tilled the air. The Count
clutched his horse's mane, and his
lips moved as if in prayer, while
more than one stilled cry broke fiom
the peasants as the little bark reai>-
pearcd close to the islet, dancing
like a feather amid the roaring
waves that surged up around. But
the ferryman had seen the coming
help and prepared for it. In an in
stant his wife was lowered down,
with her baby in her arms. The
other two children followed ; but
alas ! there was no place for the
father in the tiny skiff already over
loaded.
The two brave men exchanged a
look, and understood each other.
Off went the boat, shooting down
the foaming current like an arrow.
More than once all seemed over; but
the oarraan's hand was true, and at
last far down the stream, he brought
his charge safe to land. Then, with
out halting a moment, he seized a
tow rope, and dragging his boat to
the point whence ho had started,
shot out into the raging Hood once
more.
u God be with liira I" cried the
Count, fervently ; 110 other man in
Saxony would have dared such a
deed 1"
Stoutly aid the gallant man strain
at his task ; but bo came only just
in time. The ferryman bad barely
leaped into the boat when the whole
building came crashing down. In
an instant the whole crowd was in
a motion, and, headed by the Count
himself, they rushed down the bank
to meet the rescued man and his de
liverer as they reached the shore.
"There, my brave fellow 1" cried
the old noble, holding out his purse
to the oarsman ; "never was money
better earned !"
"Not so, sir Count," answered
the other. "Cod lias enabled me to
keep myself by the work of ray own
hands, and I need nothing more.
Give your gold to this poor man and
his family, who have lost their all."
And without awaiting a reply, he
turned 011 his heels and disappeared.
