The object of Knuty Nelson's trip to
this<ecality was explained by the Mime
apolis Tribune yesterday morning That
paper is exclusively devoted to the
Washburn Nelson ring, and ever since
the break in the Fifth district has been
urging the Democrats to put candidate
in the field against both Kindred and
Nelson. Yesterday morning, under the
inspiration of Knuty's presence, it bris-
tied all over with advice and suggestions
for the Democrats of the Fifth district
In one paragraph it brought out r. L.
Frazee, and in another patted
E. p. Barnum on the back.
AS Knuty appreciates the gauziness of
this stuff, he had the Tribune get up an
other article to deliberately argue that
Democratic nomination would damage
him (Knuty), while if there was no nomi-
nation the Democrats would flock to the
Nelson standard. If the Democrats of
the Fifth district need any evidence of
the great hope the Nelson gang have of
the benefits to result to them (the Nelson
ites) from a Democratic nomination, they
only need to read Knuty's articles in yes
terday's Washburn Tribune. The game
is as plain as pike staff.

A SNAKE MAN,
The Nashville Banner Awarded
the Confectionery by q Unau.
imOus Vote.

One Of the most remarkable freaks
OF nature that ever came under the
observation of the Banner is found
in the person of the offspring of re
spectacle farmer and his wife, residing
near the county line Of Benton and
Decatur counties, this State. The
child, or rather man, in years, par
takes Of all the characteristics Of a
serpent in every respect except as to
form aud scales His head is long
and rather fiat, like that OF the marsh
mOccasin, somewhat, and the eyes are
but little larger than buck shot, and
glisten continually with the peculiar
light noticeable in the eyes of ser
pent. He neither walks nor crawls, but
squirms along with a wormy motion,
and occasionally darts out bis tongue
in wicked manner, as does an angry
snake. Though unable to speak, he
seems possessed of some little reason,
and manifests affection for his mother,
but squirms and writhes like a snake
in agony W en- approached by bis
paternal ancestor. Once every year,
true to his serpentine instiucts, MS
skin peels Of 10 fakes, and not entire
as in the snake family and new one
grows out. A such times he is very
vicious and strikes savagely with
his tongue at all who approach. The
striking resemblance to the snake
family is more apparent in his head
than elsewhere, his body and his
limbs being fashioned after the form
of mortals, with the exception that
they are apparently boneless and
bend and curve at every move.
ment. In the winter he, or it, remains
dormant, sleeping in some corner OF
the room set apart for il nearly all the
time, and frequently not eating a
morsel for months at a time. The
monster's appetite is enormous in the
spring and summer, and sometimes
stutis itself more than seems oredita-
BILE. While il will eat such food as
the other members Of the family do,
it has decided penchant for small
frogs, minnows and raw eggs, and has
more than once been discovered lurk-
ing around the reeds and water lilies
that line the margin of the slough near
its fathers house, and pounciDg upon
each luckless betrachion or venturous
minnow that shows itself. On other
occasions it has been migs5d for hours,
and when discovered would be
found in the hay loft sucking
the hen eggs, or under the
barn reyeling in the luscious fruit of
the old gray goose, It is also very
fond Of bird eggs and young birds, Of
ten climbing lofty trees and deyouring
the contents Of the nests, swallowing
at one gulp the young bird, feathers
and all. 1t is possible to enumerate
numerous other eccentricities of this
wonderful snake man, but enough has
already been told to show that he is
perhaps the most remarkable freak of
nature in the world. His parents are
much mortified at tho saeaking ways
Of their offspring, and do all in their
power to keep his existence secret,
but the facts gwen above are known to
all their neighbors. 1t is said BY the
mother that before the child was born
