Kern was attempting to grapple the
neck Of the reptile, but without sue
cess. and Ellsworth was unable to
offer any assistance to his friend.
The coils were slowly Tightening and
crushing the life out OF the helpless
young man, for his right arm was pin

snake shot its head in midair with its
forked tongue darting backward and
forward and its eyes centered on the
face of Kern ready for the fatal strike.
With one mighty effort Kern seized
the reptile by the neck. Ellsworth
came TO the rescue and with both
hands pressed the head to the rock.
He held the head down with one hand
and with the other drew out his pen
knife. with which he severed the head
of the monster. Kern then fam ted.
The snake was II feet s inches long.
