A CROW HUNTED SNAKES.
He Also Liked to Bother a Minister who
Was a Frequent Visitor.

Z
| From the New York Press
Crows have been known to lift chickens
from a farmyard Nothing of valor can
be attributed to a crow for carrying off
fluffy little chicken. but what do you
think OF a crow that kills snakes?
This was a Jersey crow and he was full
OF the Old Nick. AS he was remarkably
tame, and was in captivity. he was allow
ed TO enjoy liberty. which sounds like a
paradox, but is not.
Every morning at daybreak he went
out into the woods to gather snakes
Scarcely morning passed without ad-
ding to his record as a snake-catcher
He killed copperheads, adders, small
black snakes and garter snakes. and If he
had had chance at rattlesnakes he
would have killed them too. But he was
not in a rattler's country.
The housemaid at the home of this
snake-killing crow would go out in the
morning and find never fewer than two
snakes on the doorstep. In spite of the
regularity of the find she took Mysteries
and took them so often and so much that
she had to go away.
This same crow had a great grudge
against a well-known clergyman-Good-
ness the crow and the clergyman only
know why.
The clergyman was in the habit Of |
spending the summer or an occasional |
week or two i'm the summer at the homo |
OF the crows owner. The clergyman |
weighed 200 pounds. After his early din
ner he would Chamber into a hammock
and his weight would bear II down AL
most TO the ground. When he was sound
asleep Mr.. Crow was accustomed to take
advantage of the opportunity TO 20 di-
rectly below the hammock and TO pecl,
hard. The clergyman stood this as long
as ne could, and then filled the hammock
WIN newspapers before he lay down in it
md slept happy ever after.

just what Caused It.

The inquest on the body of Thomas

shatt, was held yesterday morning.
Nothing was elected additional to the
iacts published in the Standard yester-
day, and the jury was unable to ascer-
'alh the exact manner in which the ac-
cldent happened. In it's verdict the Jury
says: When just above the 600 foot
station his feet slipped from the cage
and his legs were caught between the
cage and wall plate in the shaft and
nearly torn from the body. The cage
was stopped almost instantly by Ben
oIcutt' the engineer. divers body
was released and taken to the surface.
IL appears that he lived about one hour
AFTER the accident; that he was con-
scious during the time but could not

AN OHIO TRAGEDY.
a Drunken Beast Kills Young Girl and
Then Himself.

Cleveland, Oct. IA special from Hol-
gate, Ohio, says a terrible double tragedy
occurred last night two miles south of
that place in the home Of Mrs. j. p.
Kicker, a widow.
The family consisted Of the widow and
her two children, her daughter Anna, II
years old, and son. Anotherrin of
the home for some time past has been a
boarder, Nathan E. Spellman. The latter
came home in a beastly state of intoxica-
ton and was reprimanded by Mrs.
Kicker. Spellman, while the son was at
school and Mrs. Kicker was out attend
ing to the stock, went into the house. He
found the daughter ironing. What fol-
lowed can only be surmised. Anna Kicker
was attacked and her skull crushed.
Spellman then attempted to destroy his
own life by hanging This attempt being
failure he resorted to n method more
successful. WLying ON his back across q
bed, his head hanging so it almost touch
ed the floor, he drew razor across his
throat, severing the jugular vein. Anna
Kicker, ut last accounts, was alive, but
unconscious, and there is no possible hcpe
for her recovery. Spellman is dead
