red cross, which, on April Il, 1906,

came that he was compelled to Jump
another mans claim, and was shot in
the leg and died a few DAYS afterward.

What a Wire-Haired Terrier Knew About

Among the valuable dogs owned by j +.
Coope of Ben I,omoud vineyard is a family
Of thoroughbred wire haired terriers. These
little creatures are very bright, and, among
other achievements, are quite expert at
snake-killing. That they have an intuitive
knowledge. not only of how to kill snakes,
but how to heal themselves if the snake
gets the better Of an encounter, was proven
not long since by an incident noticed by
some Of the employees. The mother terrier
having discovered a rattlesnake ready
cOiled for spring, placed herself at safe
distance. and began barking loudly for an
ers responded to the call, when the two
dogs placed themselves, one on each
side of the RATHER, barking at 1t and
slowly approaching 1t from opposite d.
rections until within about striking distance
for the serpent. The eXasperated RATHER at
last sprang at the younger dog, when the
mother, in great fury, pounced upon the
snake. These terriers seize the serpent
about midway of the body and shake them
without mercy until life is extinct. In this
case the mother terrier atte m pied the usual
mode of procedure and was fairly success
full. but the fangs OF the snake in some way
struck her. inficting wound. 1t was evil
dent to those watching her that her suffer-
ings began at once. But she did not lose
her head with fear She made for bunch
of snake-weed not far off anu ate freely of
it. Her next meve was to pool of water
that made small muddy spot. Into this
she plunged, rolling herself about in every
direction and covering herself with mud.
The on-lookers gave her up for lost but the
canine physician had healed herself and the
next morning was entirely all right as II
she had never met his rattlesnakeShip in
deadly combat.-Santa Cruz Surf, July 18th.
