Boss Snake StOrv
Gan You Match It?

SHEPHERDSTOWN, w. Va, June
"A snake measuring fifteen feet and
two inches was killed in the country
near here yesterday by three teamsters
after an exciting chase in which the
monster easily distanced the husky
natives until he became entangled in
a hedge fence, when he turned and
showed fight. The snake was dis
covered in a plowed field by Farmer
John Brooks his horses taking fright
and running off. Brooks had the lines
over one shoulder and under the op-
posite arm, and the frightened steeds
dragged him under the plow and came
near killing him before they were
stopped.
The teamsters, who were passing,
Immediately pursued the reptile, which
jumped staked and ridered fences like
a greyhound BY the use of pitch
forks and clubs they at last dispatched
him. Scores of people who have seen
the snakes tracks in the dust and who
Eave been terrorized for years past,
measured him for their own satisfac-
tion.
The hide will be sent to the Smith

Ezra Bdrtlett's Request
To the Citu Council

The following communication from
Ezra Bartlett, proprietor OF the Legal
Tender. was read at the meeting of the
city council Monday night:
San Francisco, Cal, May "a. 1909
To the Honorable Mayor and Common
Council Of the City of Tucson, Arizona:
Gentlemen have just been informed
that you were considering the sub
1ect OF increasing the license on the
different games and bars now being
conducted in the city, in reference to
which | ask the favor of your atten-
tion and further investigation of the
matter. before you do anything fur
ther The license Is too high as 1t Is
now to make the business profitable, as
you have seen by the different concerns
that have failed In Tucson recently
In fact. no one who has conducted a
club room dependent upon the play or
patronage of small betters has ever
made any money In Arizona, and there
has not beer more than five men In the
Territory in this Inc Of business who
have made any money at all. and they
did not make as much as they would
have made by giving the same atten-
tion to any other business. In other
words. If six men that have played at
the games Of the different houses re-
ferred to, In the Territory, had not
played and lost. the houses would now
be loser
In reference TO the Legal Tender. we
made some money with our bar and
games combined mot as much as any
other merchant with the same amount
of money investedl until the last eight
cen months, since which time the en-
tire business has lost money, and es-
pecially In the last four months
Now. gentlemen, do not want to sell
policy tickets to or allow minors in
the house at alls,and havelalways tried
to conduct the houses that | have
been connected with properly and In q
business-like manner l. have invest
ed money in property In Tucson and
other cities in the Territory-money
which brought into the country-and
| think am entitled to some eonsid-
Grafton in this matter. and SO l ask
you not to increase the gambling and
saloon license from the present rate.
A higher license would mean prohibi-
| tion.
thank you for past favors. and In
advance for this one Yours respect
fully. EZRA c. BARTLETT.
