THUBSDAY EVENING, AUG. 12, 1880.
MR. WEED'S SNAO STORY.
NOT ONE Ot'l'HE MODERN TRUTH tUL
KIND, HUT A SHOCKING INVEN
TION. About a Reptile of Wondrous Sagacity that
was Seen t4 illilk a Cew A True
Des Story auil Other In
teresting Reminis
cences. Thurlow "Weed told a Sun Reporter the
ether day that a bogus snake story, about
a black snake milking a cow regularly,
which he published in the Rochester Tele
graph mere than half a century age, has
reappeared and gene the rounds of the
press every ten or fifteen years since. He
said "there was a curious deg story in
the paper about that time 1824 or '23.
It was this : There was a farmer living in
the township of Henrietta, Menree county,
who had moved there from Vermont, tak
ing with him a favorite deg. Fer four or
five years the fanner and his wife, after
his work was done in the fall, made an an
nual visit te Vermont in his light wagon
(this was before the days of railroads).
and took the deg with him. The sixth
year the farmer died. The deg waited
till it was time for the farmer te make his
visit, fctaited oil" alone, and made his ap
pearance in Veinient, where he remained
and refused te return.
"The story was extensively copied in the
newspapers and my friend and I, talking it
ever in the office, resolved te invent a
snake story, and try Lew big a story peo
ple would swallow. The outcome of enr
deliberations was thL :
"A farmer in the town of Parma, Menree
c mnty, had several cows id his weed let
and he discovered that o:ie of them was
failing in her milk. He was surprised, for
she had every outward indication of giving
plenty of milk ; but when she was brought
home in the evening te be milked she had
no milk of any consequence. -It finally ex
cited se much attention that they had a
boy set te watch the cows, naif an hour
or se before the usual time for the cows te
be driven in for milking, this particular
cow" left the ethers ana went off in the
bushes. The boy follewcd:hcr. She seem
ed te be in search of something. At last,
te the lad's astonishment, a snake crawled
up te the cow and caught held of her teat.
She steed patiently until the snake had
satisfied itself and glided away, when she
rejoined the ether cows. The boy ran
home and told the story. They changed
her pasture after that and she gave as geed
milk as anybody's cows."
"There was another curious story start
ed, but it only lasted a few years, I didn't
originate that myself ; it was done by a
wag who used te come into my office about
that time. He brought in a paragraph
stating that some fishermen at the mouth
of a creek emptying into Lake Ontario had
found a black bottle en the beach. It was
sealcd up, but en opening it there was
found a written account.ef a naval engage
ment en Lake Ontario in 1750 between the
French and British vessels. It purported
te have been thrown overboard when one
of the vessels was sinking. The story was
generally copied by the press, and I had
se many letters about it that it finally bc bc
came embarrassing. I remember that
among them were letters from the histori
cal society of Philadelphia and the histori
cal society of Quebec. At length a letter
came from the historical society of Paris
asking for fuller information ; aud I 'had
the mortification of having te state that it
was a hoax, which wasn't very pleasant."
Mr. Weed talked pleasantly about the
periodical reappearance of old stories, and
pf fugitive poetry in the newspapers until
another reminiscence occurred te him.
" I remember feeling very bad," he
said, "ever one illusion el'my own that was
destroyed somewhat rudely I had pub
lished with great satisfaction an article
which I had copied, giving a description
of our Saviour, alleged te have been writ
ten by a Reman governor te a Reman em
peror. It was just such a description as
you would imagine of the Saviour's phys
ique and appearance, even te his voice,
and was altogether a most charming pic
ture. I published it a number of times
during fifty years, generally about Christ
mas as the most appropriate occasion.
Five or six years age, net having seen it
for several years, I wrote a little account
of it in the Tribune, aiid directly there
came evidence that it was a fraud. I didn't
believe it at first, se strong had been my
belief m the genuineness, but finally I was
overwhelmed by the proofs, and had te
give it up. It was written by a monk in
the seventh or eighth century.
Mere conversation ensued about Mr.
Weed's newspaper experience since 1817,
when he first published a paper, until he
brought up another reminiscence.
" I was traveling in the stage," he said,
" through a place known as the Indian
Castle, about eighteen miles from Utica. In
these days there were always idle Indians
lying around the taverns. While we get
out for a few minutes, I had a conversation
with a squaw which I printed afterwards,
and which was widely copied.
" The squaw had her pappoeso strapped
en her back, as usual with them. I said
te her, looking at the child, " Is that your
pappoese? She said "Yes," "Why,"
said I. "that's a white child." "Ne,"
she replied, gravely : " it half Indian, half
missionary.'
Modern First-class Snake Stories.
Uroeklyn Eagle.
"De you want some items about
snakes?'' asked an agricultulyrural-loek-ing
gentleman of the Eagle's city editor
the ether day.
"If they are fresh and true," responded
the city editor.
"Exactly," replied the farmer. "These
items arc both. Nobody knows 'cm but
me. I get a farm down en the island a
piece, and there's a let of snakes en it.
Near the house is a pond six feet deep. A
week age my little girl jumped into the
pond, aud would have drowned if it hadn't
been for a snake. Tlic snake seen her and
went for her and brought her ashore. The
particular point about this item is the way
he did it."
"It was a black snake, about thirty feet
long, and he just coiled the middle of
himself around her neck se she couldn't
swallow any water, and swum ashore with
his head and tail. Is that a geed item ?"
"First class."
"Yeu can spread it out, you knew.
After they get ashore the girl patted the
snake en the head, and it went off pleased
as Punch. Ever since then he comes te
the house regular at meal times, and she
feeds him en pie. He likes pie. Think
you can make anything out of that item."
"Certainly. Knew any mere ?'
"Yes. I get a baby six months old.
He's a boy. We generally sit him en the
grass of a morning, and he hollers like a
bull all day ; at least he used te, but he
don't any mere. One morning we no
ticed he wasn't hollering, and wondered
what was np. When we looked, there
was a rattlesnake coiled up in front of
him scanning his features. The boy was
ginning and the snake was grinning,
imeby the snake turned bis tail te the
baby and backed his rattle right into the
baby's fist."
"What did the baby de?"
"Why, he just rattled that tail se you
could hear it three-quarters of a mile,
and the snake lay there aud grinned.
Every morning we found the snake there,
until one day a bigger snake came, and
the baby played with his rattle just the
same till the first snake came back, no
looked thin, and I reckon he had been sick
and sent the ether te take his place. Will
that de for an item ?"
"Immensely." replied the city editor.
"Yeu can fill in about the confidence of
childhood, aud all that, and you might
say something about the blue-eyed cherub.
His name is Isaac. Put that in te please
my wife."
" I'll de it. Any mere snake items?"
"Lcmmc see. You've heard of hoop
snakes?"
"Yes, often."
"Just se. Net along age we heard a
fearful row in our cellar one night. It
sounded like a rock-blast, and then there
was a hiss aud things was quiet. When I
looked in the morning the cider barrel had
busted. But we didn't lese much cider."
" Hew did you save it ?"
"It seems that the staves had busted
out, but before they could get aw', four
hoop-snakes coiled around the batrel and
tightened it up aud held it together until
we drew the cider off in bottle. That's
the way we found 'em, and we've kept 'era
around the house ever since. We're train
ing 'cm for shawl-straps new. Docs that
strike you favorably for an item ?"
" Euornieusly,' responded the city edi
tor. " Yeu can fix it up S3 as te show hew
quick they was te get there before the
staves were blown oil'. Yeu can work
in the details."
'Of course. I'll attend te all that. De
yen think of any mere?"
"Ain't you get enough ? Lcmmc think.
Oh, yes ! One Saturday me and iny wife
was going te church and she dropped her
garter somewhere. She told me about it,
anil I noticed a little striped snake running
alongside and listening te her. Bimeby he
made a spring and just wound himself
around her stocking or tried te, but he
didn't fetch it."
"Why net?"
"He wasn't quite long enough. He
jumped down aud shook his head and
started off. We hadn't get iner'n a quar
ter of a mile when we see him coming out
of the weeds just ahead of us. He was
awful het and tired and he had another
snake with him twice as big as he was.
They looked at iny wife a minute and said
something te each ether, and then the big
snake went right te the place where the
garter belonged. He wrapped right around
it, put his tail in his mouth and went te
sleep. We get him yet. We use him te
held the stovepipe together when we put
the stove up, Is that any news as an
item?"
"Certainly," said the city editor.
" Yeu can say something about the first
snake's eye for distances, and his intellec
tuality, when he found he wouldn't go
round. Yeu knew hew te de that better
than me."
" I'll give him all the credithe deserves.
Can you tell us any mete V"
"I deu't call any te mind just at present.
My wife knows a let of snake items, but I
forget 'cm. By the way, though, I've get
a regular living curiosity down en my
placc. One day my eldest boy was sitting
en the back steep doing his sum, and he
couldn't get 'cm right. He felt something
against his face and there was a little
snake coiled upon his sheuldcrand looking
at the slate. In four minutes he had done
all them sums. We've tamed him se he
keeps all our accounts and he is the light
niugest cuss at figures you ever seen. He'll
run up a column eight feet long in three
seconds. I wouldn't take a reaper for
him."
"What kind of a snake is he?" in
quired the city editor, curiously.
"The neighbors call him an adder."
"Oh, yes ! yes !" said the city editor, a
little disconcerted. "I've heard of the
species. When did all these things hap
pen ?"
"Along in the fore part of the spring,
but I didn't say anything about 'cm,
'cause it wasn't the season for snake items.
This is about time for that sort of thing,
isn't it ?"
" Yes," chipped in the exchange editor,
"you couldn't have picked out a better
time for snake stories."
A Man Who Was Hanged.
Terrible r.xpericiice of n Confederate of the
Renders.
A reporter of the Kansas City 77tclias
had an interview with Ihulelph iireckraan,
who resides in the neighborhood of Cherry
vale, near the farm that was formerly oc
cupied by the Benders. Breckman was
once suspected of being in collusion with
them and was hanged by a mob until he
was nearly dead, because he could net tell
of their whereabouts. The reporter in
duced Breckman te talkabeut the outrage
upon himself committed by a drunken
mob, and he said :
They came te my house en their way te
Independence. I and my family had re
tired. They wanted me te get up and
come out. I could tell by their talk that
they were drunk and excited, se I told
them te go away and net molest mc. They
then commenced te stone my house. Se,
as a protection te my family, I dressed and
went out. They began by beating me
ever the head with their revolvers, and
thrcatyned te sheet mc te death if I did
net tell them where the Benders were. I
told them I knew no mere about it than
they themselves did, and they then hustled
me iute a wagon and took me about four
miles te Drum Creek timber, where they
again beat 'me with their revolvers and
again ordered me te tell him where the
Benders were. Of course I could net tell
and they then brought a rope out of one of
the wagons, and, alter adjusting it around
my neck, threw the cud ever a limb. There
were eight in the party, six of them steed
eif and two of them steed ready te pull
mc up. One of the men who steed off
among the six (I think his name was Bean)
ordered the men te pull away and up I
went. I made up my mind that my time
had come and I could net help
myself. I did net pray, but if I
remember correctly I did some very
energetic cussing te myself about that
time. It must have been about three or
four minutes before I lest my conscious
ness ; it seemed te mc a lifetime. The
sensation of being choked by a rope is very
peculiar. All'the bleed in my body seem
ed te rush te my head. I could feel my
eyes starting from their sockets ; they felt
large as billiard balls and as het as fire.
My head seemed te be as large as a
mountain nnd bursting open at all
points. But the most striking
and remarkable peculiarity was that
of my tensue. I could net get my
tongue out far enough. It seemed a relief
te run my tongue out, and I felt as though
I wanted te run it out a thousand feet.
Finally everything began te buzz, and I
lest all consciousness. When I regained
it, they were ever me rubbing me, and the
first I heard was, " ! I believe he is as
dead as ." They then steed me en
my feet, and tried te start a circulation of
my bleed. I felt benumbed all ever, and
was terribly bewildered. They worked
with me about an hour before I could stand
alone. They then threatened te hang me
again if I did net tell them where the Ben
ders were. I could net, and begged them te
hang me until dead the next time and net
try and bring me te. I had already suf-
lered death, and did net want te suffer it
again and then be brought te. One of them
came te me and whispered for me te run
into the bushes and get away. I told him
I would net. He told me then te walk off,
and after I get started they fired several
shots after me, te scare me I suppose, but
I was far past being scared at that time. I
thou wandered round in the weeds, and
finally found Baker's blacksmith shop,
where I found some of my friends, who
were looking for mc.
A. Natural Ice Heuse.
In the Blue mountains, en the farm of
Samuel Thompson, near Swartswood pond,
in Sussex county, New Jersey, is a crevice
or canon several huudred yards in length,
aud from ten te thirty feet deep. The bot
tom is covered with ice, aud the caves and
crevices are filled with it. In fact, it is a
natural ice house, where many tens of ice
can be taken out without apparently de
creasing the supply. The greater part of
it has been there for many years, the mass
slowly melting in summer and increasing
in winter until it has beceme several feet
thick. During the past warm weather,
when the thermometer registered in the
nineties only a mile from the gorge, at the
bottom of it, it marked only thirty-eight
degrees. A few tcet from one end of the
gorge a spring of sparkling water bubbles
up. This water stands at thirty-four de
crees durinz winter and summer. Mr.
Thompson says that thj farmers for miles
around take ice from fais place.
