The horse with a snake in his eye
was in town last week on exhibition
at the stables Of the Knapp House.
The reptile Is comfortably located in
the watery humor OF the left eye, iS
about three feet in length, perfectly
formed, Of white color, and about the
size Of an ordinary darning needle. 1t
Is plainly visible, aud is constantly on
the move, wriggling and twisting in
every direction. Its presence does moi
seem 10 annoy the horse In the least
and has evidently created no iniamma'
ton in or about the eye. 1t has, how
ever, changed the color OF the eye ball
It being OF q lighter shade than thai
Of the right eye, and has affected the
sight somewhat. The snake was first
discovered about two months since
when It was somewhat smaller than Il
is now. How It came In the horse
eye is q question which puzzles sclent

man residing In Clyde, and probabl!

Chalmers, our indefatigablc Repro.

passage Of the Cemetery Road bill. The

be remembered, cut down the esti-
mate Of the U. s, Engineer to- 900

patch that the original amount asked
for, $1,000, has been restored. Gen.
Chalmers is a sleepless worker, aud al
