ALADY'S NARROW ESCAPE.
Mrs. Aycock Came Near Picking
Up a Rattlesnake.

Mrs. J. w. Aycock, who lives in the
western part of the county, had an ex-
perience late Friday afternoon that
would have been a shock to anyone of
the sterner sex.
While in the crib getting shue1s
and raking up shattered corn for the
family mich cow her hand struck a
rattlesnake which had gone there pre-
sumably in quest of rats. In an instant
his snakeship was in q coil an d made a
vicious lunge at Mrs. Aycock, who for
tunately sprung aside just in time to
avoid the deadly fangs Of the reptile.
She called for help, and the snake
was soon killed. 1t was about four
feet in length.

ANOTHER HOUSE BURGLARlZED.
Negro in Jail for Breaking Into the Resi-
dence of Mr.. ]. W. Goss.

Wednesday morning some one broke
into the residence of Mr.. ]. w. Goss,
there being no one at home at the
time the burglary was committed. This
is the second time in the past two
weeks that Mr.. Goss' house has been
burglarized, and both times the deed
was committed in broad daylight.
The first time a small amount of
money was stolen but nothing what
ever was missed Wednesday, and it is
supposed that the housebreaker was
after cash only.
Mr.. Goss has sworn out a warrant
charging Eugene Stevens, a negro,
with the crime, and he is now in Jail
awaiting trial for burglary.
A number of houses in that section
of the city have been entered recently
and small sums of money stolen.

CONTAINED POISON.
Strychnine Found in Egg By Hrs.
Kenney.

Monday morning, while in the act
of breaking an egg to cook, Mrs. n.
Kenney discovered small hole in it
and upon investigation, found that the
specimen of hen fruit was rather a
queer one, as it contained what she
thought to be poison of some kind.
The egg was sent to drug store for
examination and the powder which it
contained was pronounced strychnine.
1t is thought that this poison was put
into the egg for the purpose of killing
some animal who was in the habit of
egg-sucking, and that it was marketed
through mistake.
1t is indeed fortunate that the dis
covery was made, as there was
enough strychnine in the egg to
have killed Mr.. Kenney's entire fam
ilV.
