The Poet Scout Bitten by a RATHER.

Captain Jack Crawford formerly
chief of scouts in the Sioux and
Apache campaigns, was bitten on the
back of the right hand by a rattle.
snake on Sunday evening while en-
route from his mines in South Os
era Mountains, to his home in Fort
Craig. He had just killed one mon.
ster snake with his whipstock, and
while returning to his wagon a few
yards distant struck another with his
foot, when it sprang up and fastened
his fangs in his hand. He siezed
the reptile in his left hand and tore
it loose and stamped it to death and
at once sucked the wound, extracting
the poison, which act undoubtedly
saved his life. He then drove to the
post, distance of thirty miles, suff-
ering the most intense pain. His
hand and arm are frightfully swollen
and he is very sick man yet. The
physician thinks he may recover.

Irish Home Rule Riots.

The men who carried the elections
in Ireland against home rule have
been carrying on with a high hand,
and causing great riots. The great
est riots took place at Belfast, Ire
land, Saturday, July 81, Sunday and
Monday, August 1st aud 2nd. An
American writing from Belfast says ::
1t is generally conceded that of all
the rioting that ever occurred at Bel
fast that of Saturday and Sunday
was the most relentless and frightful,
On Sunday morning, when the Prot
estant and Catholic mobs faced each
other in pitched battle from daybreak
both parties having been surging
through the streets of the city all
night until nine o'clock-the powder
ran short for the few guns that were
used on either side, stone throwing
being the chief method of fighting.
Then it was that the women of both
sides broke up coarse grains of blast
ing powder so that it could be used
for the revolyers and rifles. Then it
was that boys and girls melted lead
and cast it into bullets or rolled it
up into plugs for shotguns While
this desperate work was going on the
police kept away and allowed the
wretched contestants to slaughter
each other at their own sweet pleas
ure. If there had been a firm, decis-
i've police at first the riots would new
er have grown to such alarming pro-
portions and Belfast would have been
saved a bloody disgrace.
The descriptions of the fighting on
Monday surpassed all belief in its
bitter intensity. 1t is true that the
rioting was not so serious as on the
two previous davs, but there was a
regular pitched battle between the
Catholic and Protestant mobs on
Springfield road, in which an eye wit
ness declares that sixty persons were
shot down. The two parties fought
with vicious calmness. The Catho-
lies are described as having had pos
session of field on which a number
of trees afforded them protection,
while the Protestants took up a reg
ular position behind stone wall. In
this position the two parties fought
with all the nerve of regular guerillas,
the marksmen picking each other off
with great skill. The police did not
interfere in this skirmish in fact. had
they done SO, they would probably
have been slaughtered by the oppos-
ing forces, who would have combined

A Ghastly Struggle.

A despatch from Louisville, Ken
tucky, says Samuel Reedy won con
siderable money on the recent elec
ton and large amount Of it was
paid to him the other night. On his
way home and when near the old
Western Cemetery at Sixteenth and
Jefferson streets, he was met by two
men who told him ghouls had open
ed one of the large vaults and desc
Grated it, Reedy was induced to 20
and inspect the vault. When they
reached the west end of the cemetery
Reedy saw that vault was standing
open and from it came a damp, mol
dy odor. He entered with his guides
and felt for some matches with which
to make light, when he was siezed
from behind and the muzzle of pis-
tol pressed to his ear. A cool, low
voice informed him that be must give
up his money or have his brains blown
out. Reedy was for moment par
alyzed with fear and a cold sweat
broke out on his brow. a hand was
placed in his pocket to relieve him of
any money he might have, and this
action aroused him. Feeling that
the pistol had moved away from his
head, he began struggle with the
would be robbers. Over and over
the floor the struggling men rolled,
and everything in the interior of the
vault was upset. Cofins crashed to
the floor, boxes were upset in the
scuffle, and al unearthly racket was
raised. The noise attracted passers-
by, and on their approach the would
be felons suddenly decamped, leav
ing Reedy on the floor of the vault
exhausted, but still in possession of
his money.

for the purpose.

for the purpose.
After the pitched battle of Monday
morning desultory firing was kept
up to greater or less degree during
the entire day. During the afternoon
comparative quiet was restored,
though the town was in a desperate
state of alarm. During the night
many of the rioters we're arrested and
hurried off to prison. The authori-
ties appeared to have taken so firm a
grip that it seemed hardly probable
there would be q renewal Of trouble.
Military reinforcements continue to
reach the city, and the soldiers were
received at least passively. The Or
ange population, however, clamored
to have the police removed. Reports
were received at an early hour that a
desperate riot had taken place at
Springfield, but later dispatches
stated that the affair was of compar-
lively small importance, though a few
persons were wounded.
