the man jumped and he gave testimony that
a. the down-coming car was passing there
was general shouting on that ear. His
speed was about five miles an hour. When
he finally stopped on the crossing he looked
back and found his conductor gone and a
crowd gathering. and so concluded there had

Judge wheeock has reserved his decision,
though he expresses himself as quite sure
from the evidence that the accident was not

graded chools to which pupils from with

TOO MUCH FOR THEM.
Snakes Lose Their Lives Through Sip
ming whisky.

Snakes Lose Their Lives Through Sip
ping Whisky.
The best snake story of the season comes
from Polk County, Tenn, and is vouched
for by Deputy Marshal Watson.
There are a number of illicit stills
throughout this county, and the Marshals
for number of years past have tried in
vain to break them up. One of the largest
was known to be located about fifteen miles
from Benton, the county seat, and posse
started to demolish it.
To their establishment, they reached the
still without meeting soul, and there was
no one at the still when they reached it.
Instead of men there were snakes. At first
it looked as if an immense army of serpents
had taken possession. One was lying across
the floor diagonally, while two more lay the
other way Of the room, and all being
stretched out straight gave the place the
appearance Of being covered with snakes.
Hung on the side of the copper still was a
snake, and in the liquor was another, all
either dead or dead drunk. They were
pounded on their heads until there was no
chance of their s3bering up, and the officers
left
Upon their way to Benton they learned
the story of how the snakes got possession
The frame hut in which the whisky was
made was not on any foundation, and that
morning the moonshiners had moved 1t
short distance up the creek from where it
had stood. They put it up over snakes
den. and as the reptiles appeared the men
thought there was more Of them than there
actually was, and they escaped. Then it is
supposed that the reptiles drank the liquor
and became stupehed.-St. Louis Globe

No Offer Can Tempt Them Now to Cross
the Ocean.
The band of Lake County Indians, who
were engaged by the Wirth Brothers Wild
West Show, at present in Australia. are
still in the City Prison waiting anxiously
to return to their native heath. They stub
bornly refuse to entertain any proposition
from Harry Wirth, who brought them
hither from Lakeport as an attraction for
his show in the Antipodes
g Four Injuns drown from small boat on
Lower Lake, and Injun no more 60 on
water. Heap big steamer bust up and Kill
'1njun, and three weeks On water too
much, is their answer to all efforts to take
them from California. Wirth claims that
he is out of pocket on the venture, having
purchased fifteen tickets to Australia and
return for the Indians and fitted them out
with new clothes. He states further that
he is ready to give bond for their safe re-
turn to California.
The Indians stopped for five days at the
owe 500 for board, which must be furnished
by their friends in Lake County. Their
new blankets or shawls, head-dresses OF
feathers, beads and ornaments, war-paint
and moccasns, are in boxes at the lodging
house, and the fear of losing their dancing
costumes has depressing effect upon
them.
Two of the tribe speak English and Span
ish tuently, as well as their own Dialect
One of these, the eldest of the band,
worked more than quarter OF century
for General Vallejo, and the other for a
Ukiah saloon for fifteen years.

A sswing-Machine Agent Meets With
Terrible Accident.
The body of Scott Coulter, as it was
brought into Lexington. No.. on the even
ing OF the 9th inst, presented horrible
sight. His legs and arms were all drawn
up and his head looked as if 1t were
solid mass of blood. He had met his death
at the Little Sni Greek, several miles west
of Lexington, during the severe hail-storm.
He was sewing-machine agent and had
left Wellington in spring wagon at about
dark to come to his home, near this city.
As he neared the Sni Bridge, a covered one,
1t is supposed he was overtaken by the
heavy hail-storm and sought refuge in the
bridge His horses became scared at the
noise made by the hail falling OH the bridge
and ran away. The darkness was intense.
Neither he nor the horses could see where
they were going. They left the road, turn
ing southwark and going up the banks Of
the creek. They soon came to a place where
the bluffs along the creek were fifty feet
high. Over this the horses, driver and all
went headlong into the creek. Coulter was
evidently instantly killed. One of the
horses remained in the creek all night and
