ANOTHER SNAKE SToRY.-The Carson
New appeal is responsible for the follow.
ing On last Thursday night as the stage
was coming from Vaudeville the road
seemed to get very heavy near Wocdford's
canyon. The nearest horses could hardly
drag the load aud they seemed to have
harder work at every step. Finally they
stopped to rest at the top of the little
knoll just this side of Woodford's Station,
and when the driver attempted TO start the
horses, they could not pull an inch. He
dismounted and took a lantern to examine
the running gear, when, to his astonish-
ment, he found, as he supposed, that a
rope had been tied between the two wheels.
Laying his hand on the rope, he started
back with yell of horror on discovering
thst q live snake had twisted itself be.
tween the hind aad fore wheels, and was
holding the stage as securely as if the
wheels had been tied with an inch rope.
The reptile had evidently been trying to
block the stage for several miles, and when
the horses stopped for a rest had improved
the opportunity to tighten the coils so as
to effsetually prevent the stage from start.
ing again. The passengers got out and
tackled the snake with clubs ard stones,
and as the reptile thrashed about under the
wheels, the horses were wild with terror.
He was finally killed by blow on the
head, and it was after midnight before they
got him disentangled from the wheels. He
was the style of snake known as the
mountain runner and measured II feet 4
inches When stretched tightly between
the wheels he was much longer.
