SNAKE STORY FROM ILLINOIS
All of Which Is Probable Except That
Shot With n Pistol.

OAKLAND, Ills, Aug. 2l.-NIrs. James
Williamson had n terrifying experience
with Il rattlesnake. The Williamsons live
near here in n small cabin on the Ambra,v
river. Mrs. William son had left her baby
asleep in a cradle near the open door and
happened to approach the little bed to look
at her child when she saw a line of mot
tied green and black nestled closely to the
form of the little one. The mother realized
that the snake must he dislodged Mt any
cost
Aiming herself with a pistol she sudden
ly bent over the cradle. laid hold of the
snake by the end of its tail and as sudden
ly gave it jerk which landed it over the
side of the bed and on the floor Then
aiming steadily she put bullet through
its body and succeeded in killing it, AS it
died it tluns itself upon her foot and
struck the shoe with its fangs, but it wns
only the death agony and the blow did not
penetrate the leather

BANNER WEEK OF The Fab.
Over a Quarter of Million Paid Admis
sious-Exppsition Notes.


CHICAGO, Aug 2I-When there is an in
creased attendance at the Worlds fair on
Sunday it would seem thai the boom was
really "on." Yesterday there were 81 ,2l4
paid admissions, although the gates were
open for those who cared to 60 to see
what there was to be seen simply because
the Sunday closing case in court has not
been decided Satu day the paid attend
ance was 1G5,9sl. LAST week breaks the
record. There Were. including Aug. 10
Sunday, 79O,47G paid admissions.
This week there will be dress parades by
a number of military cor panies nearly
every day, and boat races, swimming
races, horse shows and fireworks to fill in
the time. Tuesday evening there will be
an Illumination of all the state homes and
a general reception and dances every
where, with pretty women from all the
states present. Thu rsday is Illinois dav
and is expected to KNOCK the persm-
mon" as to that kind of special day. Ex-
cursion trains will be run to all points
and the programme will be elaborate
At the British celebration Saturday
Mayor Harrison said in his speech that
Gladstone was the ''uncrowned king of
England" and got Kisses and cheers for
it, He soothed the tumult by
leaving this thin ice and left his audience
in a good humor. Commissioner Cock
burn. of Car ida, in concluding his speech
said Canada did not want annexation and
added You Amer can citizens she'd your
hood and lavished your treasure to prove
your loyalty to your flag and constitute ion.
Let us respect each others national con
victions"
The national con omission has received
notice that hereafter no vouchers for per

FOUND HE ORIGINATOR.
The Man Who Started the ION to Wash
ingtOn" Labor Cry.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 21.-The man who
originated the sch eme of inviting to the
national capital an army of the unem-
ployed to make such demonstration as
would compel con yress to heed their de-
mands for relief is A f. Redstone, editor
of weekly paper called The Tocsin, pub
lished in Washington. 1t is devoted to a
dissemination of the principles of social
ism, and he claims FOR it a circulation of
several thousand. Redstone says the idea
first found place in one of his editorials
two CT three week ago, and Immediately
attracted attention.
Mr.. Redstone says: The work of organ
ization of these bodies of the destitute is
going on in all the large cities No, will
not name the men who are doing the active
work, but they arr good men, md they
are not having much trouble | do not
believe th.t we will have any trouble with
them when they come to Washington.
They are not coming for the purpose of
making trouble, but TO tell their wants To
the national Legislature and let the law
makers see that something must be done,
and you may depend upon it the law
makers will do it."

Course of the Debate and Other Notes
About Congress.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2l.-The final stage
of the fourteen days debate on the silver
question which is likely to terminate with
the first affirmative action of congress
upon the subject which brought the body
together in extra session, was entered
upon by the house of representatives to-
day The general debate will continue I'M
til Wednesday night and throughout tie
last three days of the week debate will be
conducted uE Ter the five minute rule 1t
will not close by limitation of argument,
unless the house sooner adjourns, until II
O'Clock midnight Saturday Monday, Aug.
2s, the voting will begin, and as roll calls
will he frequent it will probably take all
day to reach the final vote.
During the past week the heaviest guns
of the free silver men have about exhausted
then ammunition. Bland has had his say;
so has Bryan. w.ose speech was probably
the most bi Liant on that side Satur
day McCreary Of Kentucky and CatchicCs
of Mississippi both of whom are free silver
men, announced that they would vote for
Wilson's bill McCreary said he was as
much in favor of silver as Bland. He
would vote for repeating the Sherman law
as the proper road to free silver. Catch
ings believed in repeal and would not favor
free coinage at this slime at any ratio that
could be suggested. He was as good a
Democrat, too. As anybody and wouldn't
allow any one to question that.
Livingstone Of Georgia made free sill
yer speech aud Curtis of Kansas (Rep.)
spoke for the Wilson bill. He was very
anxious to have the bullion coined. 1t is
a curious fact that there is no one in con-
gress-free silver or an:i.free silver-that
does not believe that coming" does it
all, or at any rate great part of it, in
the putting of value into the silver.
Broderick (Rep.) from the same state was
a "bmetallist," he said, whatever that
may mean in his case. Clark (Dem.) of
Missouri was free silver 16-to-l man
without any frills, and whacked away at
the British lion with vigor that perhaps
made that poor beast feels badly.

CHICAGO Aug 2l.-The wreck on the
Fort Wayne track at Whiting, although
not resulting in serious injury to any one.
had a very exciting feature. On the train
was $3.50. tO1 en- route Chicago banks, and
this, in S20-gold pieces, was scattered
around 2romiscuously. The wreck
brought TO the scene motley throng and
a number of tramps who eyed the yellow
metal with wide open eagerness. They
made a plunge toward it, but Conductor
Finuale drew Il revolver and kept them at
bay until assistance arrived and not dol
lar was lost.
