respondent from Mackeyville writes to

follows:
There is great excitement at Mackey

took a stroll up toward the lop of the
mountain al>ont one mile north from
here in S'Sireh for wild bees, and while
closely watching the tiunks of high
tries SHOD came on a tlock of rattle
snakes. ready for battle. He succeeded
in killing twenty-five, but the noise of
hundreds of rattles in operation induc
ed him to retreat, bringing with him to
the village five of the larger ones, one
having seventeen rattles. The appar
ently never ending conveisation con
cerning the Culvey murder and robber
ies at same place was indefinitely jxisl-

DEATH OF A NATIVE OK MILLHEIM.
—On Thursday of last week Frank
Knarr,of this place, teceived a dispatch
from Chicago, announcing that his old
est son, 11. S. Knarr, is lying on his
sickbed and in a very critical condition.
This alarming statement was followed

given in either of the messages as to
the cause of his sickness and death.
"Slice," as he was tamiliary called at
home, resided in Chicago for the last
seyen years and was a conductor on a
freight train. The first impression
here was that he was the victim of
some railroad accident. Hut a letter
from W. S. Ilarter, who also makes his
home at Chicogo, and who used to be a
Millheiui boy, states that Knarr died of
typhoid fever, lie was only 27 years
old and leaves a young wife aud one
child to grieve over the early death of
husband and father. The notice was
too short for either of his folks here to
attend Ins funeral.
