A Stark County Snake Story.

The Canton boys of fifty years ago.
still living, who were in the habit of fire.
quentiDg Meyers lake, will remember
the stories told of big snake often
seen in that locality, most frequently
about the saw-mill. Various were the
statements about the size of the snake.
Some represented it as big round as a
stoYepipe, IL TO 10 feet long; others lik
ened IL to "a log. 1t was said to have
stump tail. and this was the story told
of how that came about. Henry Friday,
a Hessian, who had squatted on govern
ment land near the lake, was cutting
grass in the wild meadow when he came
across the snake. and as his snakeship
was moving off, Friday made lunge at
him with his scythe, striking him about
loot from the end of the tail, making
deep cut, from the effects of which it
,luugned off. Friday was so terror
smitten at the appearance and action of
the serpent,tha tie had dread of it ever
afteTward; and when, for any cause he
and his wife both left the cabin, they
would invariably start fire around the
building for the purpose of protecting
the children against entertainments of
the snake.
Years after Peter Frederick was gather
ing gwhOrtlebeTries in the swamp. Motto
ingsOme large berries upon branches too
high TO reach from the ground, he step
ped upon what he supposed to be log.
Just as he was about to pull down the
bush he felt the log move. Thinking
he was turning it by his own weight he
looked down to secure better footing,
when he saw the log move straight for
ward. 1t flashed instantly through his
mind what it was, and as he afterwRrd
related the circumstances, ne felt his
hat raise on his head, and he made the
lOftiest strides ever made in his life.
Ii was said a resort of his snakeship
was beaver dam, and that in crossing
| the MassillOn road, the impression his
| body would make in the dust was like
that of dragging bag of wheat.
As the story goes, or rather as the
story went during the "TippecanOe and
Tyler too campaign, which was an un-
usually dry summer, some fishermen
had started fire near the outlet of the
lake, which spread through the dry
grass and leaves, over a wide extent of
ground, and as the snake was never af
terward seen, IL was supposed to be de-
strOyed by the fire.
Frank Gasser, in digging for yellow
puccOOn a short time since in Dave
Smiths woods, came across the skeleton
of serpent. 1t was about 8 inches in
diameter. He traced it along 9 or 8 feet,
when, in an effort to remove the bones,
they crumbled to dust, and their identi-
ty thereby lost. This undoubtedly was
the remains of the snake that excited
80 much nOt0riety in the neighbOThOOd
years ago.

Uth Shoota Hlmself.

On Monday Emanuel Uth, residing at
No. 202 South Cherry street, committed
suicide by shooting himself in the head.
He leaves his wife and three children,
the oldest six years of age and the
youngest some four months. Uth had
lived in Canton twelve years, being a
workman in the Safe shop. Losing his
health he had to quit work, and this
preyed upon his mind. He was a good
citizen and an industrious man and his
death is a terrible calamity to his wife
and children, for he was kind husband
AID father. 1t seems while Mrs. 9TH was
talking to neighbOr she heard a shot
in the cellar AMI on going down found
her husband lying on his back with a
revolver in his hand and hole in the
head above the right ear. Her screams
brought help and he was carried up
stairs. This occurred about II o'clock
and he died at 2 p. IN. Coroner Lein-
niger Investigated the case.

McMilIen's Funeral.

Sheriff Altekruse shipped McMillen's s
body on Saturday to his parents at
Salineyille as he promised, sending
Deputy Sheriff Card along. The re-
mains were laid in Glade Run Cemetery
last Sunday forenoon, no services being
had, though large crowd was present.
None Of McMillen's relatives were at the
station when the body arrived and
Deputy Card went to the home of the
parents about a mile away and informed
them that the corpse had came. The
father returned with Mr.. Card to take
charge Of the body. To his sons i'm
Dlicating him he gave his usual answer,
Il can't see why George said So" Pub
lie sympathy at Salineville was freely
expressed for the old lady, but it ended
there, as many believe the father is not
wholly innocent.
