snake and a backsnake. The rattlesnake was

sought to avoid difficulty, but when the
blacksnake pressed the matter he halt
ed and folded his length into a coil.
The blacksnake glided around in swift Cir
cles; the rattlesnake never changed its posi-
tion. But the circle still diminished lis
size, and as the blacksnake drew close the rat
tlesnake appeared to grow confused. His rat
ties ceased To give out the sharp sound, and
his head dropped as if vertigo was selling him.
The blaeksnake, seized by lightning move
ment, the RATHER by the throat, and, winding
him up in folds, the two rolled over and over
together, and in a few moments the rattle
snake ceased to breathe. An examination Of
the dead body of the rattfesnake revealed
fracture in the spine as complete as if done by
blow with a club. The rattlesnake meas
