The Florida guide for hunters does
not regard northerners in % very favor

among the Crackers has to put up with
some things which hunter in Maine
might regard as sufficient justification
for shooting the guide. The Cracker
initiates a hunter by leading him to
places not comfortable to get at. War
rem Dean tells about these:
II went after turkeys on the roost at
night, and literally had my clothes and
shoes torn off by bamboo briars, not
to mention shreds of hide. Next night
I walked half the night through a
miserable country with lamp in my
hand looking for deer, but finding only
cattle and skunks. begged my horse
clear to the saddle in muck, and slept
in mud banks where alligators had been
skinned several days before, waiting
to be ready for q deer to come in the
morning. For four hours l sat silent,
watching for deer where deer never
came, but the guide, Alec, wasn't hav-
ing a much better time than i was.
But 1 had sport enough to make up
for it later on, when was accepted into
Crackerdom.
"The Crackers object to perfumery,

county character, told me so after his
own fashion. Alec and l met Turkey

HAS NO FEAR OF SNAKES
Maryland Man Who Allows tho Mess
Poisonous Reptilca To Rite Him

Maryland Man Who Allows tho Mess
Poisonous Reptiles to Bite Him.
The only man in the world who does
not fear snake bite, and upon whom
the venom of serpents apparently has
no effect, is William f. Wilmer, whose
home is in Wolfsville, Md. His perform
ances with copperheads, rattlers and
vipers are constant source of wonder
and abatement to all who know him,
and even to his lifelong friends there is
large element of mystery about the
man and his strange power over snakes.
He takes great pride in this respect,
and when among strangers it is a favor
lite form of amusement with him to
hunt up some ugly looking specimen of
the snake family-the more deadly the
better it fits his purpose-and let the
reptile sink it's venomous fangs in his
bare arm or hand.
Recently while on visit in the
mountains of western Pennsylvania, a
half dozen spotted vipers were found in
a spot under stone. Rolling up the
sleeve of his coat until his arm was
bare to the elbow, Wilmer proceeded
with his other hand to take the largest
and ugliest looking viper by the tail,
and, shaking him apart from the rest
of the snakes, swung him about until
he was thoroughly enraged. He then
allowed the viper to sink it's teeth in
his arm.
Then, oneby one, the other vipers
were picked up and allowed to seize the
arm, until there were full half dozen
If the spotted, writhing things hanging
from Winners flesh and writing them
selves about the arm in a very frenzy
of rage. When the spectators were suf-
ficiently mortified the man took the
snakes one by one by the tail, and, shak-
ing them loose from his arm, killed
them by swapping them like the lash of
a whip.
For the rest of the day no man would
have been surprised to see the man
drop dead at any moment, but, on the
contrary, he seemed among the liveliest
IF the party. There was no swelling of
the arm nor any numbness of the flesh,
the only trace of the exhibition being q
number of tiny red spots on the arm,
which looked like as if needle had
punctured the flesh. Those were the
marks Of the snakes fangs.
Wilmer himself says of the strange
popularity which he possesses that it
is something inherited from his ances-
tors, one in each generation back as far
as he knows having had this immunity
from the poison of venomous reptiles.
Il do not try to explain it," said he;
"all I know is that have no fear of
snake bites, and although have been
bitten hundreds of times never felt the
slightest i'll effects of any of them.
ut is only a pastime for me to hunt
and catch the most deadly serpents, and
peculiar feature of it is that once O
snake has bitten me I have no difficulty
in tanning it. In fact, at home I have a
number of pet rattlers and copperheads,
which know me and will come when I
call them, just like dog. I seem to
have the same power over animals, and
have yet to meet the first wild animal
l cannot tame."-Detroit Free Press.
