SAVED BY HER PUPIL. A PRETTY SCHOOL TKACHEB BITTEN BY A RATTLESNAKE. The Reptile Coiled In Her Lunch Basket A Scholar Tears the Snake From Her Arm, Sucks the Wound and Doses Her With Whisky. Hartford, Sept 20. Special' Ruth McDougal, the prettiest school ma'am in Dartford county, lies on a little cot at her Humside home. She passed through a very unpleasant experience this morning. She was bitteu by a rattlesnake; then made very drunk on whisky, and carried to her home on a springless wood wagon. This morning while walking to the school house, she stopped to pick some late fall wild flowers. She placed her lunch backet be side an old tree. The pretty school teacher gathered the flowers, placed them in her belt, picked up her lunch basket and con tinued her journey to school. The morning session being over, she seated herself at her desk and prepared to eat her luncheon. There were several small boys in the room. Miss McDougall put one hand into the receptacle. Then the small bovs were startled by a loud scream. Looking up they saw their prettv teacher standing in her chair, while coiled about her right arm they sav a vellow-brown thine that souirmed and hissed and shot out a long red tongue. Willie l'hclps rau forward, grasped the snake by the tail and tore it from the teacher's" arm. Then with a quick toss about his head he dashed it to the floor and stamped on its head until it was dead. Then Willie looked at Miss McDougal. She was lyiug prostrate on the floor. He dashed water in her face, and, seeing a drop of blood just above the wrist of her right arm, he nut his mouth to it and sucked at it vigorously. Then he called upon one of his schoolmates to run to a drugstore, half a mile away, get a pint of whisky, and on his way back inform Dr. Childs'ot what had happened. Iu less than" half an hour the schoolmate returned with the whisky, which "Willie forced down his still unconscious teacher's throat. Not long afterward Dr. Childs reached the schoolnouse and ordered her removed to to her home. The physician thinks that, owing to AVillie's prompt measures, she will live. The snake measured 4 feet 2 inches and had eight rattles. HEB BOTTJNDITY SAVED HEE. A Woman Attempts to .Drown Herself, hnt She Was Too Fat to Sink. Sax Francisco, Sept. 20. Special. Kitty Havard attempted suicide last even ing. She did not go about it in the right way, however, and she is now in the land of the living and in the city prison at the same time. Miss Havard, who is about 25 years old, wanted to be a waitress in a dive, but her brother objected to her earning a living in such a manner. They quarreled, and the result was that the woman said if she could not have her own way she would kill herself. She went to the bay at North beach and walked deliberately into the water. Those who witnessed her actions held their breath, expecting that she would surely be drowned. Although she was far beyond her depth she simply floated like a cork. The reason was that Miss Havard is fat; in fact, she is so fat that she conld not sink. Three sturdy longshoremen went around her and hauled her ashore verv wet, cold and half full of salt water. The police wagon was sent for, and as the oiheers detected the odor of liquor as well as salt water upon the woman they locked her up and charged her with being drunk. SUICIDE IH A DEPOT.

Baily & Co.'s wholesale house, was sound lying upon the floor, bleeding but conscious, and with a smoking pistol by his side. There were four ghastlv bullet wounds in his head, and from his throat spurted blood made by the fifth shot, which the suicide's unsteady hand had misdirected. Only a few minutes before the deadly fusiladc Peacock had chatted pleasantly with the bootblack in the station, who had polished his shoes, and seemed in his ordinarily good spirits. He was taken to the hospital, but died without speaking a word. In speaking of the occurrence this afternoon, Mr. Baily said that Mr. Peacock was one of the most highly esteemed men in the firm's employ, and bore an excellent character. AN0THEE FLOOD VICTIM.

A peculiar and thus far unidentified disease has affected the cattle in this and adjoining counties, and in nearly every instance it has proved fatal. The disease manifested itself two weeks ago, and already hundreds of head of cattle have perished from this cause.

We want every gentleman within a hundred miles of thi3 city to see our grand exhibit of Fine Fall Suits. You'll not find its equal in the State. This is tall talk, but unlike much talk of this kind indulged in by showing a daisy line, by which we mean several thousand suits, at prices between $8 and $14. In the better grades at $16, $18, $20 and $22 we have no competition outside of custom work, and then it has to be custom work infinitely better than much of the trash made-to-measure garments for which big prices are demanded. We would like you to take a look at some of the suits of which we are speak ing and tell us how you think they could be improved in either fit or finish. We think we've got it down very fine, but we're open to conviction. Are you ? GUSKY'S 300 TO 400 MARKET STREET.
