Thrilling Snake Experience.

One of the most thrilling affairs in
the way Of snake experience hap
pened to a young son of c. B Royal.
an emplOye of the Seaboard Air Line
railway at Yulee, Fla. The young
fellow, who is only about - or 13
years old. was riding from Amelia
Beach into Fernandina on his bicycle,
when, near the residence Of Jimmie
DrummOnd, he ran over an immense
rattlesnake which was crossing the
road. When the wheel came in con-
tact with the snake he was thrown
to the ground and the snake imme-
diately put himself in coil and struck
at the boy, missing him with his
fangs and striking the body Of the
bicycle, on which can now be seen
their imprint. The body of the snake
came in contact with the shoulder OF
the boy. who was almost paralyZed
with fear. At about that time Drum
mond appeared on the scene and cap
tured the snake. which was a tremen-
dous one. being eight feet long and
fully - inches. in circumference.
