DRIVEN OUT 8Y THE FIRE.

Thousands of suaaes Forced to Move by
Mountain Fires in Pennsylvania.
One of the interesting features of re-
cent forest fires caused by long-contin-
ned drought in the mountains of east
ern Pennsylvania has been the reveal
ing and dislodging OF undreamed-of
numbers of snakes which infest the
mountain Businesses. Thousands of
rattlers, copperheads, vipers, black
snakes and other sorts, ranging from
one foot to seven feet long, have been
driven from their haunts and forced to
flee for life before the advancing flames.
One day recently surveying party,
while at work on Second mountain,
near Lorberry, were compelled to drop
their instruments and run precipitately
down the mountain side because of an
oncoming host of snakes. The woods on
the mountains opposite were blazing
furiously and, correspondent of the
New York Times says, the reptiles in a
fright came swarming over on Second
mountain for refuge. On they moved in
countless numbers, like q vast army, all
kinds intermingled, and swept down
upon the surveyors without warning.
The men stood their ground in aston
ishment for time, but soon seeing the
host steadily multiply as it drew near,
they incontinently abandoned camp and
ran away in terror, closely followed in
their fight by the snalEy multitude.
At the foot of the mountain is road,
and there the corps halted to await de-
velopments. Standing there they saw
thousands of snakes glide down
through the grass and across the road,
disappearing in the tangled brush on
the lower side. As the corps were about
leaving they Witnessed a quick and de-
cisive combat between a giant black
snake and a RATHER en- route to the
brush.
The rateler was five and one-half feet
long and the blacksnalze fully seven
feet. The rattler was cutting across
the road diagonally just as the black
snake went across atraight from the
same side. In moment they coilided
and then clinched. The blaclEsnalIe
with a sudden twist of his body caught
the RATHER tightly IN his coils Then
he gave another twist and the game
was up for the RATHER. The blacl5anake
quickly uneoiled himself and darted
into the bushes. On examination OF
the dead RATHER it was found that his
body was crushed into 4 palp. In if-
teen INMATES more the procession OF
squirning, wriggling, gliding reptiles
had passed and the surveyors We're able
to return to the mountain and secure
their instruments.

Ignorance of the provisions of Mr..

ever, now that attention has been
called to the matter in the press, the
dirty and dangerous osculatory method
OF administering the oath appears like
ly to be superseded by the more seemly
and Scotch practice. A juryman was
sworn in the latter way at Liverpool
assizes recently, and at Fulton police
court a doctor objected, ION sanitary
grounds, to kiss the Testament which
vas handed to him. If court officials
were instructed to ask each witness or
juryman in which way he would be
sworn the nasty custom of kissing the.

swim. and did not know Of their error
until he got beyond his depth and sank
They made desT crate efforts 70 save
him. but all 10 no purpose, and the
youths body sank for the last time. IL

The scene at the rivers bank was
very sad one, the youths companions

watched several Of the older boys dive
for the body.
Mrs Gin was very severely shocked
by the news Of the accident.
Mr.. GatewOod was a young man OF con-
siderable merit. and by his exemplary
habits won and enjoyed the esteem OF
all who knew him.

JOLIET, Ills, Aug. 10.-One Of the most
fendish and outrageous acts recorded In
the history of Will county was that COM
mitted on little Nellie Byron, the 13-year-
old daughter Of a Wesley township farmer.
Nellie was visiting her aunt, Mrs. Ulm-
sted, half mile from her home, last Sun
day. She did not return that evening, but
1t was supposed that she had remained
with her aunt. Upon going to her aunts
Monday, however, IL was found that the
child had left for home Sunday evening.
Search was Immediately begun, and on
Tuesday noon the little girl was found,
concealed in a growth of hazel brush,
dead, her body showing criminal assault.
Sheriff Kennedy and State Attorney
Aiken went to the place yesterday and ar
rested Ernest Lacore, a farmer, aged 81
years. To the states attorney he con-
fessed everything saying he murdered
her Sunday evening about $50 o'clock by
breaking her neck between his hands
The sheriff had TO smuRgle the man TO
Wilmington to keep him from being
lynched. He was brought 10 Joliet, and
now it is reported that fully 1000 men are
coming there to kill him.
