THE BIRD WINS.
Lively Encounter Between Buzz
Yard and a Snake.


A gentleman from Trimble county,
Kentucky, across the river from this
place, was an eyewitness one evening
to most singular encounter between a
buzzard and huge rattlesnake, the
particulars Of which, as related
by him, are as follows, says the st.
Louis GlObeDemocrat. The afore-
said individual was III the act OF driving
his team up to a watering trough, formed
from natural spring at the foot Of a
huge rOock on his place, when he was
attracted by the peculiar shrek Of a
buZzard when engaged in a contest with
one of It's kind or any other animal
over carbon which it has discovered,
and on which this species of bird feeds
wholly.
On alighting from his wagon and
drawing nearer to the spot he discov-
cred one of these well known birds of
prey, which abound here~n countless
numbers, engaged in fierce fight with
rattlesnake nearly five feet in length
and measuring. as far as he was able to
judge, fully six and half inches
in circumference at the thickeSt
part. The gentleman describes the
scene as a terribly fascinating one.
and he was so close to it, though par
TALLY Hluuen from view DenlllQ large
gum tree, that he plainly saw every mo-
ton of the combatantS. The carcass of
dead lamb lay near the scene of bait
tie, and the buZzard had evidently been
feeding upon it, when, discovering his
snakeship, which had, 10 doubt, been
baSklng in the sun on the rock from
which the aforementioned spring.
flowed.
The buzZard, with its large, piercing
and blood-red eyes almost dilating from
their sockets. and wings half-eXtended,
as they always are when upon the
ground, would wait for the snake to
spring, and eluding its stroke with Won
derful deXterlty, would dart at its an
tagonlSt and batter it with both wings
and talOnS before 1t could recoil again.
and, retreating, would would wait for
another opportunity to attack, keeping
far enough away from its foe to be safe
ly out of harms way. The fight waged
Ill this manner for fully five minutes,
while the RATHER, torn and lacerated by
the beak and talons of the savage bird.
gave up the ghost, and catching it up
with its claws, the buzZard, with a shrek
of victory, flew away with its serpent
victim in the direction Of the Indiana
shore.

a SUICIDE CLUB.
Three Kill Themselves, But the
Fourth Marries.

Three Kill Themselves, But the
Fourth Marries.
Less than year ago three girls and
one or more young men residing in
Ionia, Mich, agreed to commit suicide.
Three of them have already persisted by
their own hands. The fourth is mar
ried and may have changed her mind,
and others are unknown, says the Sc
attic Telegraph. So far as has been
aScertained, persons who entered into
the terrible compact were Grace Cook,
May Shell, Fred Butler and a girl
named Rogers.
The agreement was made at a con-
vival gathering, probably in fun, but is
being kept up as though it were sacred
obligation.
Grace Cook. the first to die, was found
in her room adjoining a restaurant
writing under the effects of poison,
and she soon expired.
Several months ago Fred Butler at
tackled lady clerk with a club, and, on
being identified and tracked to his room
by the officers, fired a bullet through his
brain.
The third life sacrificed in pursuance
of the agreement was that of Mary
Shell, who died at Battle Creek Sun
day with every symptom of poisoning
by morphine. She was pretty girl,

One Of Those Stories 1t Does to
Tell in Winter.
Into North bay, at the junction of the
Grand Trunk, we rolled on time the
sixth day, and here l left the pleasant
acquaintance had formed ell route
and rode down to Trout creek, where
two years ago 1 had some very nice
sport with the trout. and of which | in

ent of Forest and Stream. Two DAYS I
stopped here, having fair success, though
1t was little early for vigorous biting.
Still L made fair catches. Iarrived there
Friday evening. Saturday [ fished.
When got back at evening the German
landlord, on seeing my string, re-
marked:
Il got some, too"
"HOW did you catch them?"
'Mit my hands,"

81 don't use any bait. l catch 'em
nit my hands,"
l looked at him with an expression of
''too thin" and after little chat he
said:
"Vell, l show you tomorrow"
Good" said L.
Next morning at breakfast he laid be-
side my plate seven beautiful fish, eight
or nine inches long, and as much alike
as two peas. | sampled them SatiSfac-
tOrily, and after that breakfast he, my
friends Carr and Bartlett. both sports
men. and L went up the creek into the
the woods little way, where he said he
tipped the trout with his hands from
beneath the rocks and roots near the
bank, and, amid a little gOOd-natured
chatting he took off his coat. rolled up his
sleeves to the shoulder, and stepped
down the brink. A triangular wink
went round between the waiting Specta-
tors. He stepped down, ran his hand
unner one stone and another, fingered
around behind a root under the bank,
pulled his arm out of the almost ice
cold water, rubbed it, slapped it: moved
little further up, tried itagaln: crossed
over, looked wise, shook his head, tried
it again, and finally tipped big frog
out from under stone, at which there
was a combined shout from the audi
ence.
well, why don't you catch 'em?"
He shook his head and replied: 81

line?"
had something that would answer,
so he cut limb, took piece of frog
skin for bait, and soon had a trout
dangling, and said: 'Oh, no, no trout
hereE and then caught another one.
Don't give it up So" shouted to
the hand fisher, so, after he had once
more stimulated the circulation in his
arm, he continued the farce, trying here
and there where he could get under the
stones without wetting his feet But
he didn't keep it up long; said it was
too cold. Sphe pulled down his sleeves,
put on his coat, and we rambled back
to the hotel, gradually dropping the
subject, for we didn't wish to rupture
the entente c0rdiale. But he still MAIN
tanned that he caught the fish as we
saw him trying to do. and that that was
the method by which he and others
were accustomed to poach trout in pre-
served streams in the old country. Who
can tell?

There is quite a little hustling noticeable
for the postmastership of this place under
the incoming administration. AS the
spoils belong to the %victors, there is no
fault to find about this, but the public de
sires the office centrally located and a
competent p. IN.
Good authority says that while two hunt
ers of this place were on the chase, they
ran a fawn into a treetop, and there it
broke its back they came upon it, tied its
legs, cut its throat, and then shot it.
The law relating to hunting and Staying
deer is very much discussed by hunters.
They seem to think that there is a mistake
in the wording of the law. 1t does seem
a little complex to the ordinary mind, as
it is given in Smulls Hand Book.

The p. Il w. R'y trains blockade the
public road at this place, which is very
annoying and i~nconvenient to travellers
and the business men of the town and
