why, certainly" he replied "Taylor
Then they laughed little ungrammatical

But Charley" she continued, 'iI m serIons.
don't you think 'twould be too awfulIy bad
for them to have two brothers going around

Charley had not sifted the results of such
an evil, but replied: "Yes, / confess 'twould
look little tough, but then, you see. they
wouldn't go into personalities, hut discuss
the issues before the people"
what are the issues Charley ?''
The line was too long, but with death
rattle in his throat he stammered

From the Burton, Ga, SpTiue-
The most wonderful snake story We have
heard this season is related by Mr.. Pierce
Dozier, Recently Mr.. lay lost a couple OF
goats and was unable tD hear from them ia
any direction. A few days since when Pierce
was perambulating around the woods he says
he came across ono of tho largest snakes he
ever saw, and was in a iew feet OF il before he
saw 1t. lie began shooting at II, ana says he
nows he hit it twice without even break ing
its skin. But the fonrth shol seemed to have
struck a tender spot and went through
the monster, killing IL instantly Imagine
Pierces surprise when he turned the sna o
over with his foot and saw the head and
horns of billy goat prOtrudIng from the
hole the pistol ball (a'is calibTeJ had made.
With little assistance the goat managed 10
extricate himself from this strange pTedica-
ment and went sclmpering oil through the
woods, and at night came up with the other
goats, looking none the worse for his won
dertul experience. The other missing goat
has not been found and Pierce thinks he was
also in tho bowels Of the same huge reptile,
but had probably been there SO long that he
had been 'dissolved.'
