Hatfield Arrested.

Governor Atkinson, Wednesday solved
problem which for several days has puz-
zled scores of Sheriffs' deputies and police
officers. This problem was how to capture

H. T. Ellis in a duel with Winchesters at
Gray, w. Va.
The Governor left Charleston Monday
night and reached Warncliffe. a small
station in this county near Hatfield s
home. about FIVE miles from the scene of
the killing. There young Hatfield came
to him, gave over TO him his gun and ex-
pressed 10 him his readiness to accom-
pany the Governor to Charleston and re-
main in the prison at that place until he
can be tried, provided the Governor
would see to it that no violence was done
him by Ellis relations.

Battle With a Snake.

Mr. Gray Silver. Of Inwood, had a
thrilling experience with big black snake
this week. He says he is not afraid Of
snakes when ON the ground. but in the
positios in which he was when he came in
contact with this snake, he felt rather
shaky
During the day he had been engaged
in hauling hay into his barn by the patent
hay hooks. There is a projection from the
roof Of the barn. about forty feet from the
ground, where the pulley, on which the
rope runs, is fastened. While hauling IN
the hay the rope broke right under this
projection
Before they proceeded with the work
this rope had TO be fixed and this Mr..
Silver decided to do himself He climbed
up the ladder to the top floor Of the barn
and then BY climbing hand over hand out
over the rafters he reached the projection.
Here he lay down upon the fiat of his back
on aboard al the end Of the projection and
proceeded to tie the rope.
Just as he had finished iieing the rope,
he looked up and saw a huge black snake
making its way across the rafters toward
him. The snake kept on approaching and
Mr. Silver says that he felt pretty shaky'
there with snake overhead and the
ground forty feet below him. On il came
and as it reached him il dropped its tail
upon his body and was getting ready 10
drop. Then Mr.. Silver showed fight. He
grabbed hold of piece Of rope and began
beating it back with all his might.
The snake weakened under the heavy
fire and retreated back on the tracks OF
the hay-fork wheels. Mr.. Silver was then
released from his Imprisonment and he
climbed back into the barn and. securing
big pole, followed in the tracks of his
snakeship. He struck it heavy blow and
it fellto the floor. When it landed it made
for Wright Morgan, who was watching the
battle, and he grabbed it by the tail and
smashed its head up against the barn.
The snake was a big one, measuring SIX
feet in length. Mr.. Silver thinks the rea-
son OF its visit to the projection Of the
barn, was a pigeon's nest,which was there
with two young pigeons in it. He can
give no other reason for the snakes pres
ence in such a location.

Attempt at Robbery.

A burglar was discovered in the resi-
dence of Mr.. George ID. Poisal, zoo North
Maple avenue, Tuesday night about ten
O'Clock.
The inmates Of the house had all gone
out for the evening, locking up the front
part of the building and leaving the rear
open, through which the intruder gained
entrance. He was discovered by Miss Lot
tie Poisal, who was the first to arrive at
home, who heard him walking upon the
roof Of the porch, presumably in passing
from their side of the house into the adj
joining residence of Mr.. Geo. w. Fcidt,
the house being a double one. She also
saw him on the end of the porch and gave
the alarm. A
Officer McBee was summoned who
made search of the house but the in
tTuder had made good his escape, having
secured nothing. The wardrobe and
drawers in the bed chamber of Miss Lottie
were all ransacked, clothing and other
articles being scattered around. 1t is
thought whoever the nniscreant was that
he was familiar with the place and knew
the lay Of the house.
