making more than 1,700 ho lins killed In
five yeais. Nearly 150 of Inst fnll's
catch wetc killed In seven days In n
den near Hilllstead.
Hall says he lost considerable money
the Hi st year of his snake 'hunting by
not knowing thnt there was n maikot
for the skins and i attics, as well as for
the oil. The skins he rolls for twenty
live cents to $1. These nio dtesscd into

the rattles aie mounted as jewels for
pins, earilngs, and the like, and bring
from twenty-live cents to jl a btrlng.
Tho oil sells nt fifty cents nn ounce,

yield an ounce.
Tho best hunting season Is usually In
the spring, when tho snakes are leav

Rather for winter. When they come out
they assemble In Intertwined groups ot
from three or four to fifteen, lying in
the sun until they collect cneiRy for

return, appaiontly in families, the old
ones with fiom ten to twenty young
ones, a toot or moie in length.
Hall admits tho hazard of his occu

Mrs. Israel Hopkins, of Tine Plains,
the wife of a farmer, a few days since
took a candlestick, in which was a
lighted candle, in one hand, and a bas
ket in tho other, to go into the collar
after some kindling wood. As she
opened the cellar door the family cat
lan past her down stalls. An Instant
later the cat began to giowl and spit.
The sounds of a stiuggle came up the
stairway. Mis. Hopkins thought the
cat was fighting with a lat and con
tinued descending the stalls As she
leached tho bottom and the light from
the candle fell on the floor, she saw the
coils of a largo snake.
She sci earned, diopped tho basket and
candlestick, and tinned to inn up stairs,
1 but fainted and fell backwaid upon tho
cellar staiis. Tho scieam staitled Mr.
Hopkins, who ran downstalis. Tho light
had been extinguished, and ho stepped
Into the basket, which was on one of
the steps, and fell headlong over Mis.
Hopkins,. His left hand stuick the
snake, which was squeezing the life out
of tho cat.
Before Mr. Hopkins rould withdiaw
his hand tho loptile colled nbout his
nrm and bit him in the forearm. He
caught the snake by the tin oat with
his light hand and killed it. It was a
blacksnake, six feet long.

A SPLENDID NOMINATION.
The Republican senatorial conference

the 'district pull off their coats, go to

Idueated gentleman, without a (law In
jis character or his history, and ho
vll honor the district. Such men are
oo seldom sent to legislative, hall3, and
Wa opportunity ought not to be ne

of such n candidate, and tho trlumphnnt
election of tho gcnlnl and popular
colonel Is one of the certain things of
the near futuie.
