A SNAKE WITH TWO HEADS.
It's Heads and Tails Belong to DIFF
ferent Varieties.
(From the Indianapolis News.

(From the Indianapolis News.)
George Sloan, farmer living on the
knobs in Monroe Township, brought to the
city last evening snake, four feet in
length, that is a curious freak of nature.
1t is hard to tell whether Mr. Sloans
catch should be called snakes or snake.
1t has two heads and two tails and is Of
two different species of snakedom. One
head and one tail are those of an ordin-
airy harmless blacksnake. while the other
head and tail are of the variety known
as a cowsnake. Back from the head Of
each reptile there is a growth of body
about a foot long and an inch and quar-
ter in diameter. Then comes single body,
somewhat larger than the forward part,
and about two feet long. This part belongs
to the cowsnake and out of this growth
the two tails. each about foot long, one
belonging TO the cowsnake and the other to
the blacksnake. The reptile is harmless.
II was captured by Mr.. Sloan in a novel
way. He had been missing newly hatched
chickens and supposed rats were at fault.
Wednesday morning he heard a noise
among his fowls and he ran TO the chicken
house, where he found the strange creature
writhing on the floor and the chickens hud-
died In a state Of terror The two heads
had gone after the same chicken. and each
mouth was ciamped on either end Of the
chick, and neither would let go. A battle
royal was on for possession, and Mr.. Sloan
called his family to witness the affray. Up
to this time he had given no thought OF
capture, but on sons suggestion be pro-
cured two tined hayfork and pinning
the writhing blacksnake- -cowsnake COM
bination to the earth.
This caused both heads to let go. and the
chicken, dead, Of course, dropped on the
floor. box was procured. and in this the
double header was placed until cage could
be made.

Uncle Sam Don't Wear
A SHREWD FARMER.
Outwits a Capitalist on Horse
Deal.

(From the Detroit Free Press)
In one of the towns of Upper Michigan
is the president of railroad that is sew
eral removes from trunk line. AS a
horse trader he is Of the same type as
David Harum and thinks 1t perfectly
Christian" TO get the better of the other
fellow. Not long ago he sold a roadster
to a farmer near the place, receiving $175.
One day last week the farmer dropped into
the presidents Office, and casually enquir-
ed whether that official really thought the
horse worth the money paid for it.
"Not trying to rue bargain, are you,
Si?" replied the president. That horse
is worth $500 to a man who drives as much
as you do If / needed one at all, you
couldn't have bought him at any figure" &"
Wouldn't $500 be a little steep fur
him."
''Not a bit of It, He's got better pedi-
gree than many 2:20 horse; he can keep
up fine gait all day and he's as gentle
as a kitten There isn't better horse In
the State for road work. and don't you
touch less than $500 for him.
We'll, l won't"
Then the farmer winked at couple of
men who had been listening and laid a
paper before the president
How did this happen, SIP stammered
the president.
Them men O. yours that were haulin'
ties across my place left the fence down,
the hoss got on the track, and freight
train done the rest" S
but your claim for $3.50 is ridiculous.
Well contest it,
But when 81 grinned from ear to ear
and when the two men laughed uproar-
ously, the president blushingly announc-
ed that he would have the matter adjust
ed in accordance with the claim.

LOCAL ATHLETES cHAGRINED.
Deprived of the Relay Trophy on an
Alleged EOul.

AS stated in The Times yesterday. the
Y. Nj. C. A. athletic team, of this city,
won nearly all the honors at the A. A. u.
championships held at Baltimore Satur-
Gay afternoon. The sprinters and runners
won nearly every event in handy fashion.
and their work was the feature OF the day.
The relay team won its race in easy
manner, and notwithstanding that the last
man increased the lead over the Maryland
Athletic Club 10 twenty yards, the race
was given to the NJ. A c. on what seemed
an unfair and unsportsmanlike decision,
because of a slight but purely technical
foul on the part of Morgan, one of the
fairest runners who ever competed in a
race. AS that so-called foul in no way af
fected the result of the race, the Washing
tonians feel chagrined at being deprived OF
honors well won.
The unfairness of the decision, and tie
manner in which the race was won, is
best described by c, A. Holton, assis ant
physical instructor OF the Y. M. c. A., who
witnessed the event. and who when seen
by Times man said:Fsg
Morgan, who had come all the way
from Yale, for this special race, had al
ready run two races, and the man he
was running against in the relay was
fresh, not having done any other work
during the afternoon. His man got away
first, and led for about seventy-five yards,
when Morgan overlook him, and passed
him on the outside, and in his anxiety to
get the pole, cut in before he had gained
the prescribed six feet. He in no way in
terfered with his man, but realizing that
he had committed foul, allowed him 10
pass him, and regain the pole. He then
passed his man again, and beat him by
ten yards, showing conclusively that he
was the faster runner, and that il was not
necessary 10 foul him to beat him. Nor
gan is one of the fairest men on the
track today, and would not intentionally
foul an opponent
Il consider il very small piece of busi-
ness on the part of the Maryland Athletic
Club and a sorry lack OF sportsmanship to
claim the race under the conditions, as the
foul, as i said before, In no way interfered
with the result. We beat them out and
every man on our team proved himself
faster than the Nj. A. c., as at no time were
they closer than five yards TO our men,
Beatty finally increasing the lead TO twen-
ty yards at the finish. They are welcome
10 the trophies if they can find any glory in
them won in such a way.
Morgan, of course, feels very badly
about the occurrence, as he had set his
heart upon winning this event"
Mr.. ]. w. Beatty, the fast quarter mile
runner, and member of the Y. NJ c. A. re-
lay team, left yesterday for California TO
engage in business there. Mr.. Beatty will
no doubt prove his ability amongst the
surinters on the Pacific Coast
