Rattlers In a Berry Patch.

Middleton Special in New York Sun.
Connecticut snake-hunters have had
luck lately. Dell Reeves, of this town,
the champion rattlesn killer of the
state, begged a big fellow q day or
two ago that wore seven rattles and
was burdened with fifteen eggs, each
an inch long. He got 1t at an old
coslpit near his house.
Reeves has killed bushels of rat,
tiers, but never before captured one
that had more than twelve eggs. He
hunts the reptiles professionally and
never misses his game after once get
ting his eye on it. The snake skins he
sells to wealthy Hartford men for
curious and he gets 81 an ounce for
rattlesnake oil from city druggists.
He has killed eight rattlers In his
own town this season.
At Bristol the other day Luther
Newton killed q rattlesnake with a
scyt the in his meadow, and the SER
psnt, after death, gave birth to AZ
snakes, each 8 inches long. At Ches-
ter village not long ago F. G. Holmes
of Turkey Hill, visiting his chicken
coop after dark, was startled by a
strange noise at the door. He leaped
back just quickly enough to escape a
big rattlesnake that sprang at his leg.
After q lively fight he killed the
snake, which was 5 feet long, inches
in girth and had ten rattles. samuel
Arnold, of the same place, picked
black berries at Watrous Pond, and
having filled a 10-quart pail and set
it under q tree, began to fill another
pail. After awhile he returned for
the big pail and found an Immense
RATHER coiled around it. Arnold let
the big fellow have the pail and the
berries and went right home.
"Ten dollars would not hire me to 60
after that pail of berries," he said to
a neigh Dor.

ABUSED HIS WIFE, .
Who Is in she Last Stage of Con-
sumption.

Who Is in she Last Stage of Con-
sumption.
One of the most inhuman acts that
has been committed in this city for
many years was that which took
place at the home Of Alfred Davis, on
South Pecos street, last night.
Davis is . worthless negro, VINO
earns few cents now and then by
cleaning out saloons and doing any
kind of soft snaps. With the money,
he makes frequent visits to houses Of
disreputaole nature, and while it
lasts, has gay time with the inmates
OF these dens. Yesterday evening he
returned to his home about O'Clock,
after having been out quite q while,
and his vile, who is q poor, weak
creature, almost at the point Of death,
inquired what he had done with so
cents which he had picked up from
OFF the sewing machine. This aroused
his wrath and he began using very
abusive language and making des-
perate threats. Words and an
ger multiplied and Davis picked
up bic wife's banjo aud smashed it
into several pieces, then threw it out
into the yard. He then procured an
ak and chopped it into splinters.
When he returned to the house his
wife began to reason with him an told
him he ought not to act so rude. He
then caught hold OF her neck and was
shamefully abusing her, when Miss
Lucy, the wife's sister, appeared and
interfered. He then left the, house
and the sister at once telephoned for
the police officers lust before their
arrival Davis had returned with a
dray and was loading his household
goods. He was arrested and taken to
prison to cool off. This morning he
received q 81 fine.

What the People are Saying.


A. J. Houston, republican candi-
date for governor, according to Post
master Johnson, won't receive $500
votes. Perhaps our P. M. has been
out counting up the republican
voters, which may account for sundry
mail Irregularities.
The people are not much Interested
in the kind of tobacco the P. M.
smokes In his meerschaum, although
the Express may think so. The wor.
thy son of the illustrious Sam Hous-
tou will poll thousands of votes when
the polls open in Novem Der.
Capt. Johnson informs the public
that the program of the so called re.
publicsns, is not to put ticket In the
field If Clark runs but to support
Clark. The Capt. better wait until he
hears from toss Quincy again.
The enterprising' reporter of the
'Caliaghan- OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES tariff
democratic Express ought to have
asked our sarcastic P. NJ. il the county
com bination was still on.
Our local candidates are all afraid
of party couventions-most of them
are democrats and they don't know
which of the three democratic factions
to cling to,-there is the third party
and the repu blicans who can make up
ticket and good one for every
Office in sight.
The federal building will cut a
very small figure In the election, but
1t is evident from the p. MS inter-
view that they are puzzled as to
which of the democratic local factions
they shall tie TO.
