on the center of the ice at night and
smeared a circle of coal tar around
the blaze, so when the snakes wrig-
gled along to learn what the fire was
they smeared themselves with the
viscid tar, rolled in knots, got mixed
up with others that were similarly
afflicted, and ended the job by becom-
ing glued together in great gummy
lump of tar and snakes. In this man
ner more than coo snakes were caught
in one night
The snakes were taken ashore and
soaked in warm water until the tar
came off, when they were skinned and
the skins were stretched over long
tapering poles to dry. The man who
has use for these skins is Felix Thir-
rault. of Eagle Lake, French doctor,
who has gained money and reputation
for his cures in cases of rheumatism.
His treatment consists of giving his
patients a strong dose of squaw bush
tea. which produces nausea, which re-
lax the muscles and produce perspira-
ton.
As soon as the sufferer is in sweat
he is put to bed, covered with warm
blankets and snake skin is stretched
in hot water and firmly knotted about
his waist. As long as the skin stays in
place no rheumatism can affect him.
The catch in the treatment is that as
soon as the water dries out the skin it
contracts, pressing the patient so hard
that few can stand the pain. Those
who have strength to bear up under
the agony until the skin expands from
the strain have no more trouble with
rheumatism, while the ones who are
compelled to cut the skin to relieve
their agony have to take new treat
ment.
Thirrault has become rich at the
business, the people believing that
some of his cures are nothing short
of miracles.

AFTER THE BATTLE.
Romantic Meeting of Two Cousins
on San Juan Hill.
Their Relationship Discovered I'm an
Extraordinary May-Now They
Are Partners I'm business
and Fast Friends.

According 10 the Omaha correspond
ent of the New York World Arthur L..
Drake and William Francis Drake,
cousins, partners in the cattle bust
ness near 0gallala. owe their acquaint-
ance and partnership 10 an accidental
meeting on the battlefield after the
charge of san Juan Hill, Cuba, before
which they never knew of each others
existence.
After the close of the Spanish-Amer-
lean war each of these men received
his discharge, the one from the rough
riders and the other from the Third
United States cavalry one year later.
In August, 1899. they located in west
ern Nebraska, and have since been init
mately associated.
No story of fiction has ever been
imagined or told which surpasses the
remarkable history of their family,
and more especially that of the ia
theirs OF these two young men, them
selves, their two sons and these sons
little daughters.
Arthur j. Drake and Francis NJ.
Drake, twins, were born in Birmng-
ham, Ala, April 81, 1886, where they
lived until Arthur decided TO go north
when he was 16. After travelling
through many of the northern states
ae located on a farm near Milwaukee.
He never wrote home. He married
Miss Mary Sherwood and was the IA
Their of two sons, one of whom is Ar
thur l.. Drake.
Francis NJ. Drake remained with his
father and worked for him in store.
He was married in 1859 and is the IA
sher of one child-William Francis
Drake.
At the beginning of the civil war Ar
thur J. Drake volunteered for the
union and joined the Eleventh Wiscon-

man, loud as to dress and actions, APP
peared from beneath another awning
and proffered his services. They were
declined abruptly and with some
alarm. The overdressed young man
persisted.
Nourolah lounged forward and took
a hand in the conversation. "You
want him TO go away?" he inquired Of
the young woman in broken English.
"Oh, yes, please" she replied. With.
out a word Nourolah calmly lifted the
masher by the nape of his neck, car
ried him leisurely to the edge of the
curb, as a boy would carry a small
dog, and flung him into the water.
Then, without giving the unhappy vic
tim another look, or deigning TO no.
tice his torrent of curses, the Turk
strolled leisurely back under his avn
ing and contemplatively lit a fresh
cigarette. An object, muddy.
drenched, and scarcely human, stag

impotent rage.

bama infantry.
During the siege of Vicksburg by
Grants forces the soldiers on either
side became friendly at certain places
where they were stationed in trenches
close together and would often call
each other "Yanks" and "Rebs" in a
social way, trade tobacco for coffee
and exchange other articles. Here
the twin brothers met for the first
time after Arthur left home.
After the war was over Arthur -
returned to his home iP Wisconsin,
where he died in 1880. The other broth
er moved from Alabama to Texas,
where he engaged in the cattle bust
ness. He still lives in that state.
After the battle of San Juan hill
a wounded rough rider was sending a
diving message to his wife and only
daughter by a kind-hearted private OF
the Third United States cavalry, who
was doing all in his power to stop the
hemorrhages from his wounds and save
his life.
The dying man took from his watch
chain a locket which contained the
photos of his wife and child.
This" he said, sis for Edith Drake,
my only child"
''My God" whispered the other,
"that's the name of my only child
Then he hesitated. He knew the man
had not the strength to answer ques,
tions, so he waited until the rough
rider was strong enough to talk. There
in that southern hospital these two
men discovered that their fathers were
brothers and that they had each a
daughter named Edith Drake and that
their little girls were nearly of the
same age.
