REAL ESTATE AGENT'S CURE THE BEPTILE THAT STABTLED HIM WAS GENUINE. Whit's Latest Snake Story Susque hanna Will Celebrate the Fourth. A Few Wayside Thoughts The Heart Lake Summer Normal Sad . Story of a Cat. Special to tlic Scranton Tribune. Susquehanna, June 15. On Friday, a Susquehanna real estate agent was on one of the back streets, showing a house to a lady, a prospective purchas er with all the fire and enthusiasm of the twentieth century real estate agent, the man had called attention to tho modern Improvements, conveniences and fine, points of the building as they journeyed from room to room. They had just-completed an inspection of the kitchen and stepped out onto the porch. "Cheap? Why it's just like finding a home! It's a shame to sacrifice a home like this. Tho lot alone is worth the price I am offering it to you for. There isn't a better-built, finer-looking, more conveniently arranged and " Tho agent stopped short. An ugly pallor overspread' his face. His eyes bulged, muscles twitched and he ap peared as a man suddenly stricken with pome terrible malady. With a wild look In his eyes he stared at the ground. Staggering forward he clutched the porch railing for support. His compan ion was thoroughly frightened by this time and would have cried out for as sistance but could not find her voice. She was about to run for her life when the agent turned suddenly, and clutch ing her arm with his right hand, point ed toward a spot in tho yard with his left, and in a voice trembling with fear and scarcely audible, asked: "Madam, do you see anything moving about down there?" "No-o, I d-don't see anything," she stammered, as she attempted to free herself from his grasp, believing he had becn suddenly bereft of his reason. "Look! Look again, madam. Don't you see something crowling In the grass?" tho agent demanded, his eyes never nnco turning from the spot at which he pointed. "No-o-oh yes, I do! It's a snake!" he exclaimed. -'Thank God!" ho yelled, an lie leaped 'from tho porch and snatched up a 2x4 Ecantllng. Rushing to tho spot he had indicated he swung tho timber and brought it down with frightful force. His aim was true and deadly. Now there Is one less blacksnake crawling about on the face of the earth, and the agent is exhibiting to his friends the carcass of a reptile measuring eight feet In length. A few minutes after ho 'kiiled it the agent declared it was twenty-six feet long and as big around as a barrel. NEWS NOTES.
