How a Snake Committed Suicide.

The following snake story is vouched
for by several persons whose veracity is
beyond question, one of them being a
leading lawyer and another preacher:
On yesterday Arthur Elben and James
Woodell, while in the mountains near
Addison, W. Va, caught large black
snake. The reptile was big one, but
not remarkably large. A string was
tied round it's neck, and it was brought
to Woodell's house, where it was hitch
ed to stake. Woodell's children were
much interested in it and prodded it
with sticks till the snake became wild
with rage. 1t being harmless variety,
it was decided later to let it go and see
what it would do.
The snake crawled off slowly till it
came to a small apple tree, which it
climbed till the first limb was reached.
Out on this it crawled till it found
branch about twice as large as it's own
body. 1t stretched itself along the limb,
and doubling itself about the middle be-
gan to wind the rear half of it's body
round the front half till it was about
the shape of two wires which lineman
has spliced. The winding process was
kept up, the coils moving forward and
Tightening till the middle and strongest
part of it's body covered it's head Then
the snake deliberately put on the pres
sure and squeezed it's head till it burst
open and death relieved it. Whether the
snake was angered by the abuse it re-
ceived or piqued at being captured, and
whether it had been reading Ingersoll's
theories on suicide, are questions which
the literary society will debate at the
next weekly meeting Louisville Cou-

STORIES OF THE DAY.

How Schuckers' Joke Cost the Railroad
Syndicates Nearly a Million Dollars.
Samuel p. Shuckers died recently at
Wooster, 0. He was brother of ]. W.
Schuckers, private secretary of Salmon
P. Chase and brother-in law of John Fl.
Oberly, ex-civil service commissioner.
An interesting incident is recalled by
Schuckers' death which has never found
its way into the newspapers. The Incl
dent occurred number of years ago,
and during the time Of the sale Of the
Lake Shore railroad at Cleveland it hap
pened that Schuckers and John McSwee-
ney, the great criminal lawyer, met at
the sale. insolvency had but a short
time before made great hit by his po-
itical speeches at Cleveland and Phila-
delphia and was attracting attention all
over the country. At this particular
time he was trying case at Cleveland
Young Schuckers was in those days q
veritable dude and very sprucy.
He went to Cleveland to have time,
as he always left Wooster to celebrate,
and was having a good, glorious time
on this particular occasion. He was
small and wiry in stature and always
carried silk umbrella. It happened
that he met insolvency in the rotunda
just as he had finished an argument
and while the sale Of the Lake Shore
railroad was going on. They stopped for
a moment at the edge Of the excited
crowd bidding in the road. There were
a number of syndicates represented
foreign, Vanderbilt, Gould and others
The bidding had reached So, 100000
In a spirit Of devilishness young Schuck-
ers bid So, 500,0 In a moment rush
was made toward the new bidder and a
demand was made to know what syndi-
cate he represented His only reply was,
with a wave Of his silk umbrella, eco
away from me-. The excited represent
atives of the other syndicates asked for
q recess, which was granted, and in 20
minutes they came back, when the bid
was raised to 81, 900, 900 and sold.
Mr.. Schuckers sprucy appearance and
oeing in company with the great Grim
inal lawyer had led them to believe he
represented some secret syndicate which
was trying to gain possession of the val
liable railroad property. -Cincinnat

1t Is the enthusiasm of the hockey
clubs that has caused this recent boom
in the skating rink enterprise; and IL
is likely. also. that the encouragement
afforded by a sheet of Ice ready for
players at all times and in all weather
will have a strong reaction upon lovers
of the sport. In New York hockey
clubs are being formed in the Seventh
Regiment Athletic club the New
York Athletic club. and the Crescent
club of Columbia college, Harvard,
Yale. Cornell Brown and Princeton
universities are also organizing teams.
The interest in the game among the
colleges may be traced back to last
winter, when a team made up of men,
bers of Brown. Yale, Columbia and
Harvard went to Canada and played
Toronto. The men came back thor
oughly impressed with the idea of play
ing a scientific game like that put up
by the Canadians. AS a result the st.
Nicholas Skating club has appointed
a committee to revise, and IL possible
to improve the rules OF the game as 1t
Is played in Canada. These rules will
probably govern the games to be
played this winter. The Canadian game
with its necessary apurtenances is as
follows:
The ball is a rubber disc. called a
puck" three inches in diameter and

ball or block in ordinary shinney.
There are no fixed rules regarding the
size of the ice field upon which the
game is played, the usual dimensions
being about so by 160 feet. The new
rink being so by $50 feet will. therefore.
AFFORD ample room for the largest
number of players admissible in any
game Seven on a side Is the correct
number. but the game can be palyed
with anywhere from five to fifteen on
a side.
The teams line up somewhat as in

tom into a fiat blade much like a golf
stick: indeed. IL would seem that golf
players might find some OF their ia

favorite material. but any light, tough
wood, such as hickory, spruce or hard
pine will serve. The regulation blade
nor more than three inches In width,
but no limit is set to the length of the
handle, which is usually about 40
inches.
When the teams have taken their po-
sitions the referee places the puck b.
tween the blades of the foremost play
ers OF each side. Then the signal to
play Is given, the "rushers'' from each
side bear down upon the puck, and the
struggle to drive IL through the enemy's
goal begins. The game lasts for one
hour in 30 minute halves. From the
first moment IL is full OF life and dash.
and the excitement Is sustained to the
end. There are almost the same OPP
portunities as In football for scientific
passing, lodging. etc. and a system OF
signals for the captain will in all prob
ability be devised. Good skating Is at
a premium. and the man who Is to take
the puck down the field for any great
distance must know everything worth
knowing about the art Of manipulating
the feet on runners.
Besides a good skater, a successful
player must be quick as lightning both
in his wits and his movements. The
puck must never be carried, but Is
pushed or slid along the ice with the
hockey stick until near the opposite

will give his handy a twist and send
the puck flying toward the goal posts
about two feet from the ground.
Here is where the goal-keeper's sci
ence comes in. He may stop the ball
in any way he pleases, but he must
not strike or return 1t with anything
but his handy. A good goal-keeper
will often lift the puck on his blade
and send IL flying over the heads Of
the players to the other end of the
field. This reverses the situation in
stantly, and a grand race ensues be-
tween the "rushers' of both sides
toward the imperiled goal The same
rules which govern the Rugby football
game applies TO the position of
players in hockey when the puck is
I'm play"-no man must touch the
puck except when behind il. Any play
er who does 50 is ruled off-side. and a
penalty imposed by the referee upon
the side TO which he belongs. The field
in a rink is enclesd on all sides, and
the rebounding of the puck from the
wooden sides gives an opportunity for
carom plays which greatly add to the
complications of the game. Hockey Is
not so rough a sport as football,
though hard knocks and falls are plen-
tiful enough. No player must lay
hands on another. but collisions and
body checking are allowed. Failure to
observe the rules Is punished by ruling
the offender off the ice and compelling
his side to play without him or put
a substitute in his place.
The costume worn is similar to that
worn by football players. but is usu-
ally lighter weight. Clothes are not so
roughly handled as in football. so that
thin jerseys and trunks. and the light
