RATTLESNAKE-EATER.
Sells the Reptiles Sometimes
Makes a Meal OF Them.

Moses Henderson is a sable son of
Africa and lives two miles from Ameri-
Gus in a rocky field where rattlesnakes
are most plentiful, says the Savannah
News. Moses makes a living by cap
turing snakes and selling them. This
is the truth, strange as it may seem.
One day lately he killed large one
with II rattles on it. This was fat
snake and Moses ate it. The other day
he brought very large snake to the
city, trying to sell its hide. There were
% rattles on it. The snake was very
poor, and Moses said it would not do to
eat, and he stuffed it's hide and sold it
for a good price. Every year Moses
makes good deal of money selling
snake oil. He says right down the
vertebrae of a rattlesnake is fatty
streak of flesh that makes an oil, when
fried, that will cure any case or rheu-
matism. It is strange to how many
people he sells this rheumatic snake oil.
He has a long list Of certificates from
people he has cured. Some of them are
from intelligent whites, who declare
that the oil has cured them when all
other remedies have failed. He sells a
vial of the oil for one dollar and guar
antees lasting cure.
Moses says his father was an African
voodoo doctor and taught him how to
cure all aches and pains with snake
oil. The negroes Of Sumter county ve'
crate and fear him as mysterious doc
tor who can cure when all else fails,
and look upon his snake oil as some
thing enchanted.

Why Women Fight seasickne...

TROUBLE OVER LAND.

OF NEW CASTLE COM
MONS APPLY FOR A WRIT OF AID
QUOD DAMNUM
John II. Rodney, attorney for the
trustees of the New Castle Commons,
has filed in the Office Of the prothono-
tary an application for a writ of ad
quod damnum against the Delaware
Railroad Company.
This is an action of rare sort. There
was one such writ issued in 1916; in
1870 there were five, and last year two.
In this case the railroad company
condemned about two acres Of land be-
longing to the Commons. An award OF
$500 was made by the commissioners
of condemnation. AS John M. Solo,
mon received that much for one acre
of sand pit, the trustees feel that the
award made in their case was grossly
Inadequate. Therefore they refuse tc
accept the award of five men and de-
mand the constitutional right to hav,
the matter determined by jury OF
twelve Of their peers.

A decree was issued in court here

salary of $4,000 per annum. Two
months after signing the contract he
rendered his resignation as he wanted

$500.
His Coatesville employers not only
refused to accept his resignation, but
asked the court for a preliminary in
junction 20 restrain him from leaving
them, which was granted on June 13
1893. They declared that his expert
services were immensely valuable tc
them, but Martin, in his testimony be-
fore the court yesterday, said that he

many other men.

A P1TIFUL ACCIDENT.

LITTLE coLoRED BOY WITH NO
LEGS HAS HIS ARM BADLY
BROKEN.

ELDER TINDLEY
TELLS HOW HIS RACE IS TREAT
ED IN THE SOUTH.
An interesting lecture was given last
night by Presiding Elder Tindley on
"The Lawless Outrages in the South
and the Remedy before an enthusias-
tic audience in Ezion Methodist
Church.
Among other things he said: 1T does
seem that people in authority are not
sufficiently vigilant in enforcing Tie
laws. People of our race are lynchcd
without being tried in legal manner
and oftentimes on suspicion of having
committed some crime. l am not here
to say that this is not all being done
but 1 wish to say that we take the
view that there are some things We
must foster, which will make us bet
ter citizens. We should let the lawles'
boys and street yelling yahoos Of oul
race know that we do not uphold them
and let people of other races know
that we are not all alike. not al
chicken thieves, beer drinkers or grow
Ter chasers."

TWO COwARDLY FELLOWS.

THEY RECkLESSLY RUN INTO A
TEAM AND THEN THREATEN
BODILY HARM TO A REMON-
STRANT
Last evening at $50 o'clock as Mrs.
Eaton, wife of Isaiah n. Eaton, Of
Ninth and Monroe streets, was driving
up the Kennett turnpike with her three
children and Mrs. Mccullough, cou-
pie Of men, who appeared TO be drunk,
coming in the opposite direction at a
very rapid rate of sped, ran into them,
making a complete wreck of the car
riage and throwing two OF the children
out in the road. Had not Mrs. Eaton,
just before they struck her, turned her
horses head. almost undoubtedly
there would have been serious injury,
If not loss of life.
Mrs. Eaton was on the Summer road
the right, and the action of the two
men in driving into her was gross
carelessness. The men were in a buggy,
and both the left wheels were torn of
of It, the rim of one Of the wheels be-
ing twisted in with the rim Of one OF
the wheels on Mrs. Eaton's wagon.
When the men were demonstrated
with by a resident for their action
they threatened to do him personal
injury, and claimed that it was Mrs.
Eaton's fault. One OF the men admit
ted that his name was Tully. His
companion prevented him from saying
anything more. The detectives are look
ing for them.
Mr., Eaton had to go out to bring his
folks in town.
