FISHERS HILL NOTES.

Harrison and protection is the ticket for
true Americans and patriots. Cleveland
and free trade for England and foreigners
Wheat In this section, has been con-
siderably damaged by the continued wet
weather.
We notice the Democratic party has
started the campaign with Mr.. and Mrs.
Cleveland, Thurman, the bandana and
free trade. They might consistently put
Hector in the race also. 1t will take con-
siderable force 10 pull such load through.
The people of this county will, perhaps,
have an opportunity to test their fidelity
on the temperance question. Senator
Blair reported favorably the proposition
to submit to the people Of the United
States a constitutional amendment to
prohibit the liquor traffic business In this
country. Many persons say "when it is
proposed to make temperance national
affair, we are for temperance"
Harrison Is the man for temperance
people to support. 1t is said that he has
never been In saloon. lie is a Christian
gentleman, TOBIAS family worship daily.

ZEPP, SHENANDOAH COUNTY Va,
July %, 1893. !
Mr.. EDITOR AS rattlesnakes have been
unusually plenty and savage in this sec
ton, l thought would give you An ac-
count of desperate fight between one OF
them and a well.known and popular gem
tleman living here. Some days since the
handsome superintendent of our extensive
tannery was called on business to the
Cove, and while returning, at point near
the Sulphur Spring, he came npon the
largest rattlesnake ever seen in these
parts. IL was not less than 10 feet long,
and as thick as pretty large sapling, and
carried on the end of its tail twenty-One
rattles and a button. As soon as it saw
Mr.. y it made at him, but the gentle
man did not scare worth a cent. He had
on his snake fighting clothes and with
big club in his hand, he was ready. The
snake struck at him many times. but MI
y is rs supple as a cat, and succeeded
in lodging his iangs until he at last got
in a blow on the snakes head that killed
it. Then taking of the 81 rattles he re-
turned to the tannery in triumph, where he
shows the rattles with much pride to his
admiring friends. CEDAR CREEK.

threatening to shoot her. She then went
into another room aud returned with a
pistol, seeing which the fellow started to

A celebrated chemist has discovered a
substance that Is at least seventy times
sweeter than sugar. This is nothing to
what some Of our Woodstock boys have
discovered in the sweetness line. One Of
our young men says he has found young

hundred times sweeter than sugar, and is
willing to bet the very coat off his back
that any Woodstock boy who gets fair
glimpse of her will lose his mind inside OF

Mr.. Ed. Hisey, foreman Of this office,
brought us from his home in Edinburg, an
egg that was evidently laid by a crazy
hen. 1t was drawn out at one end and
curled like a crooked neck squash and
made a most ridiculous appearance for
an egg. Strange to say it dld not have
either Harrison or Cleveland's name on 1t,
