 IN A RATTLESNAKE COUNTRY Some Experience with the Reptile in a
 Western Journey.

 Ia travesing the distance between the two lodges, accompanied by MT. Man Who Strikes His Enemy, etc., a most remarkable adven- ture befell me. As we wsre wading through the tall grass of the canon, penetrating deeper and deeper into it's rocky recesses, all at once my companion gave me violent push which sent me spinning some eight or ten yards to one side. quickly regained by balance and cast an anxious eye at the red skin, at the same time cooking my Winches- ter. Not being used to such familiarity from the sons of the forest, I suspected the gentleman of treachery; but as he was armed with simply bow and several long feather ed arrows, while had powder and lead, I was not in much fear as to the result. Now my dark-skinned friend meant the gentle push simply as an act of kindness; for al- most immediately I heard the omiRous rat tie, and then 1 learned that had come pret- ty near an eight-foot rattlesnake buried in the grass. The Indian drew 0 deer thong riding whip from his girdle, and with couple of cuts lay the reptile hors du combat. While we were watching the ugly thing wriggling and squirming about in the grass 8 second rattle was heard close by, and in moment the mate of the dying serpent came gliding into view. The Absaraka brave despatched this one also, which measured six feet six inches in the clear.
 After this little diversion we proceeded on our journey toward the tepee of Two Bears. When within 100 yards of this great chiefs wigwam or lodge, and in sort of clearing, where the grass was short and crop py, for third time we heard the unmistak- able sound of rattlesnake, and looked around just in time to see monster one disappear in it's hole. The Indian made sign for me to sit on the ground and keep perfectly quiet. He threw himself fiat on his face, fitted an arrow to his bow, and waited for the snake to appear. He had not long to wait, for the rattler poked his nose about two inches out of the ground and followed it up the next moment with his whole head. The Indian looked at me and I looked at him. Twang! went the bow and the arrow pierced the snake through the neck and embedded itself in a rotten stump just on the other side. It was neatly and cleverly done. The rattlesnake was a pris- oner, the arrow impaling him just above the ground, so that he could move neither way. He finally managed to tear himself loose, upon which he thrsshed about and rattled furiousIy. My aboriginal friend killed him also and made present of the tail, which consisted of no less than sixteen rat ties and a button. We then proceeded to the tepee of Two Bears, which we reatched without meeting any more rattlesnakes.
