A Rattlesnake Orchestra-One Willy
Rather Secured Live Glass for His
Dinner.
From the New York Press.
The private dining room of the Merritt
house was crowded the other night with
members of the Rattlesnake Club. Presi-
dent Alexander Ixford who told the most
remarkable snake story at the contest for
officers, olficated. The Count Van Reven-
low vice president, was there and so
were the clubs secretary, Mr.. Frank
Lloyd of Godey's Magazine, and Treasu-
rer Baneker Of the Southern Society.
Among those who applied for member
ship were Mr.. Leo Dunhinson of No. "a
Irving place and Mr. F. p. Wright, OF At
lanta, Ga. After dinner applicants were
called upon to qualify. MIR. Leo Dunkin-
son, the youngest of the new mem bers,
arose.
Gentlemen" he said, 'last summer
while on visit 10 the rice fields of Caro-
lima made it my business every dag 10
roam through the woods and fields in
search Of game. There | met my first
rattlesnake. He was beautiful diamond
back specimen and carried nine rattles.
When first saw him he lay coiled up
near the edge Of field of stubble /

when something peculiar in the express
sion Of the reptiles eyes prevented me.
He seemed to be looking down the road

he knew the habits Of his little friend,
for raising his hideous head, he gently
tapped the soft, glossy back Of the little
fellow, who was 80 industriou3ly playing
'possum. AT the first touch OF his foe the
little fellow dis ointed himself into four
separate pieces Of equal length, and the
RATHER calmly proceeded 10 swallow the
tail end Of the Joint snake, and then the
next portion, and so on until the four
joints were slowed away inside No

"This time he quickly seized one of the
center portions of the glass snake and
swallowed that nrst the head followed,
then the tail, and last of all the other por-
tion. This accomplished his snakeship

went to sleep. There was no further dis
turbance within"
"Can you verify that story2" asked Mr..
Gilbert Hay, chairman Of credentials
committee
Certainly, SIR" declared Mr.. Dunkin
son, glibly, as he produced from his pocket
drawings of the joints of the glass snake,
showing how it disjoints itself Excep-
tions were taken, but the president in
sisted that it was the object Of the society
10 keep its members from lying about rat
tlesnakes only. The matter was taken on
advisement.
The next gentleman to qualify was F.
=. Wright, of Atlanta, Ga.
HE SOUNDED HIS FLUTE.
Gentlemen Of the Rattlesnake Club"
Mr.. Wright began, lat an early age / was
addicted to laziness. When still young
man used to wander in the fields near
Atlanta, lie on the bank OF a babbling
brook and sound my flute. Day after day
1 breathed into my beloved instrument.
A RATHER wandered down by the
brook one day, and every time l
struck B fiat his confounded
rattle would sound the same note. After
a while he became so tame that he would
coil up by me and Join in whenever I
struck his note. noticed that he had
five rattles and button. One day he
brought his mate. She was q trife smaller
and had but four rattles, and gentle
men, you can imagine my establishment
when she, too, joined the accompaniment,
but instead of sounding B fat, ratified out
a resonant A natural.
Summer advanced and snakes grew
more plentiful, and had quite an au-
dience. BY degrees / selected eight rat
tlesnakes, each with different number
Of rattles and capable of sounding diff
ferent note, and they soon learned
to sound their notes as / played on
the flute, so that we had a nice
little choir. But my reptile friends were
all sopranos During the summer / Sc
cured and tanned several very large
snakes, some Of them with more than
twenty rattles, and before fail l got to-
gether band Of rattles capable Of sound
ing in all twenty-four separate and dis
tinct notes. The effect was wonderful

flute, trusting the orchestra ton TO nv

music that they never hatted note or

members of the Rattlesnake Club,
began Mr.. Parker, II have seen but one
rattlesnake in my life l was walking in
the main street of Admission and in the
roadway discovered a writhing mass of
snake. 1t was spring and snakes were
just beginning to shed their old skins.
Fascinated by the sight Of so strange a
coiling, l stopped. The black snake was
endeavoring TO get the spiral hold on tho
RATHER, and stretch him to death, this the
RATHER was trying to prevent. They sepa-
rated, and for several minutes the two
lay cycling each other. A cold wind came
up and made spring feel like winter,
Slowly the two snakes began to stiffen.
then with last effort the black snake
crawled forward and seized the tip Of the
rattler's tail in his mouth. the rattler re-
turned the compliment, and soon the two
snakes were swallowing each othern
Even Sambo became interested at this
1uncture.
For several minutes" went on the
story teller, "the snakes continued TO
swallow each other, until at last little
more than the head and neck Of each
could be seen, and 1 verify believe had
not the horny rattles Of the crotalus
caught somewhere in a narrow part of his
own or the black snakes throat they
would have completely devoured each
other"
"Well, what did they dol" yelled the
excited darkey.
'Oh, found out afterward. f" continued
Mr.. Parker, that it was merely a habit
snakes have Of swallowing each other on
cold days TO keep themselves warm"
The club breathed easier, and on the
motion Of the president it was decided to
dJourn, as many members were in such
dazed condition that preluded them from
determining between real and fancied
snakes.

A delicious story of "damuable itera-
ton" comes by way Of the English parish
curate, route which good stories often
take. He was visiting poor old couple
who were sitting together over the fire.
The old man was very grumbling and dis
contented. The curate said that "he
ought to be more grateful to God for hav-
ing preserved them through such length
of years to be a comfort TO each other. 4"

Charitable women, says the New York
Tribune, in their eagerness to provide
for their special hobbies, sometimes dis
pose of other peoples goods and chattels
in way that is, to say the least, slightly
irritating to the owners, who, however
generously they may feel disposed, like
naturally to be approached with tact and
consideration. 1t having been decided
not long ago by the manager of a philan-
thropic institution that it was necessary
TO raise at once quite a large sum of
money, a concert was proposed, and the
next question was at whose house the en-
tertainment should be held. "The cool
way in which various houses were sug-
gested and criticized" said one Of the
lady managers afterward, "sbruck me a g

gested another, and so on. Half a dozen
houses were proposed and rejected, and
their merits discussed without their own
ers even being aware of the honor pro
posed for them"
