days it is nothing unusual to see
several hundred of 'em summing them
selves on the hillside, ever and amor
rolling from the top to the bottom Of
the hill, running races, playing leap-frog,
and performing other serpentine antics.
An authenticated report is that sixty-nine
dead ones were counted along the road,
within a short distance, where they had
been run over by passing wagons, and
killed by the drivers of the teams. The
snakes are of the garter variety, and
harmless, although the great number of
them to be seen Is not re-assuring to the
timid person, who fears snakes in general.

are long snakes and short ones and fat
