walk in the open air, accompanied by
two pet dogs. He frequently visits

Largest Snake in America.


In the geological gallery Of DR..
Cunningham, Carthage, Mo-, may be
seen the greatest native Anne rican
wonder extant "a snake twenty
seven feet eight inches in length and
seventeen inches in circumference, re-
sembling in many particulars the Ii
ger Python of Africa, coiled in tre-
mendous folds, with head erect,
mouth open, and mammoth forked
tongue protruding as if about to gulp
down at one spring everything in
reach. This snake, which DIR. Gun
ningham has named the Lead Py-
thon of the Southwest is without
doubt, the largest American reptile
ever captured. The history of its
capture is about as follows: Two
miners in Hickory county were re
turning home from prospect in the
woods in the latter part of July. ac-
companied by large dog. While
passing q thicket on the banks of a
stream, they were attracted by hiss
ing or rushing noise, followed imme-
diately by loud yell from the dog
and crash among the bushes. On
approaching the spot, they beheld
the terrible monster in the act of
swallowing the dog. They fed, but
soon returned and succeeded in cap
turing the reptile while gorged. The
weight of the snake when first taken
was about 300 pounds.

rival in that city he had q very severe at
tack Of catarrh, which, his attending physi-
clan said, would certainly have turned into
