ed, as she remained nearly a week in the
hole without food. Somehow this, the true
version of the story, was never circulated
and peop.e there still believe that Nc
Cam saw a snake.
''One time an American who was visit
ing Ireland before l came to this country
told me he knew of field in which there
were snakes. / told him he was talking
nonsene e, but he insisted that hi was
hight. He undertook to take me to the
Held and when we reached 1t he pointed
triumphantly to sign at the gate with
the words Snakes set here In another
field about a rod or two away, there was
a similar sign but with a different spell
ing. 1t said, Sneaks set here.
II explained to him that these snakes
were bars of iron set on pivot just be-
low the surface of the ground to keep
people from trespassing. If you stepped
on the end the affair turned round and
the other end hit you in the face. They
were sometimes planted where seed was
freshly sown, but as often as not the sign
was bluff to scare people away. You
nsver saw more Disguised man in your
life than my friends when he found the
kind of snakes there were in the field.
81 don't believe there is a snake in all
Ireland, but as there are plenty of snakes
in both Scotland and England, especially
in Scotland, am forced to the belief in
the legend that st. Patrick banished all
the snakes and toads. If he had not BAN
ished them why were there never any
snakes or toads seen there? This idea
may seem ridiculous, but if thsre is a
better explanation of the problem l would
like to hear it."

SNAKES IN IRELAND.
Recent Visitor Investigates a Story
That One Had Been Seen There
RecentIy-U ntrue.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun
Since the days when ST. Patrick is al
legged TO have banished the snakes and
toads from Ireland" said a naturalized
citizen from the north of Ireland who
has just returned from visit to the land
Of his birth neither snake nor toad as
far as history and legends show, has ever
been seen in the land of saints outside of
a menagerie. investigated several plaus-
IDLE stories of snakes being seen in Ire
land, while l was there, but every time
the snake turned out to be either wholly
imaginary or to be something else which
the excited beholder had taken for a
snake. l never found any one who, on
being pinned down to facts, could say he
ever saw a snake or toad in Ireland, and
have travelled through every part of the
island
During my last visit to Ireland 1 was
in County Antrim for about a week and
at that time there was a story going the
rounds to the effect that a farmer named
Mccain had discovered snake right in
the center of st. Patrck's bishopric. The
story as it was told to me first seemed
truthful. The description of the aneged
snake was that 1t was about four feet
long, that ii had flaming eyes and a
forked tongue and Kissed just the same
as any regular ordinary snake would do.
Mccain was supposed to have discovered
the snake when walking along the road
from Ballymena to Galgorm, the latter
being a village town two miles from, Bally-
mena, the market town of County Antrim,
The place where Mccain was said 10
have seen it was within sight of Slemsh
Mountain al the foot of which the good
saint herded pigs for an Ulster chieftain
who sold him and made him a slave.
That was when he took the famous step
from Slemish to Skerry, another mountain
two miles from Slen1ish, which he was
recorded to have taken when he escaped
from slavery and began to preach to the
heather Irish.
The place is full of legends about st.
Patrick and I thought 1t too bad that a
snake should appear in such a spot. About
a dozen people told me the story and
they all told il the same way. so l con-
cluded it must be true. Mccain was a
respectable man of sober habits and there
fore not likely to be deceived by the
snake associated with the d. t's.' The
farmer was corroborated by a boy who
was with him at the time. Both said
the snake had vanished in a hole in
ditch as the mounds of earth and stones
in which hedgerows along the road are
planted. are called. Iney nad seen snakes
in menag eries end knew what they were.
81 started an investigation of the story.
all The same, and after a good deal of pa
tient work ] discovered that the alleged
snake was a stray cat which had been
hunted by boys and worried by dogs until
il was mad with fear. II dar ed into the
hole it's eyes flaming. when Mccain and
the boy passed and spat at hem as angry
cats do. when they came near. The spit
ting they took for the Kissing OF the snake
and the cat ran into the hole so quickly
that they rad no time 10 see what 1t was
