A Champion Snake Hunter.

It is not well known that certain
parts Of France are infested with pois.
onous serpents, against which warfare
is waged by state-paid serpent hunters.
They are killed in thousands, and the
price per head is 2 I'D. There was
some time ago famous serpent killer
in the forests of Southampton, John
Milly, who in forty-two years of hunt
ing killed more than $4,000 vipers. A
Frenchman named Courtol, who hunted
in the Loire district, can be compared
to Milly, as he was credited with hav-
ing killed 10000 venemous reptiles. His
only weapons were one or two massive
sticks. AS soon as he saw the serpent
he advanced and hit it violently, either
killing or stunning 1t; with the second
stick he pinned 1t to earth and cut
off the head with a huge pair Of scis
sors. But along with these simple
weapons Courtol possessed thorough
knowledge of the habits Of serpents. He
knew when and where to find them. In
two days near Puy-a-Clermont he
killed 230 of them, and not only did
he kill the poisonous creatures but he
would capture them living when de-
sired.-London Taller.

Generosity Rewarded.

During the distress among the Cop
enhagen worlimen on account OF a
lockout In 1887 the public was ap-
pealed to for contributions. An old
couple in Jutland, having no money,
sent in their wedding rings as their
humble contribution for the relief Of
the starving people. The organiza-
tion kept the rings as a memento of
this kind act. Recently the old couple
celebrated their golden wedding under
very distressing circumstances. They
were actually starving, This came to
the knowledge OF the Copenhagen
workmen. A collection was organized,
and in a few days the old couple re-
ceived $400 In cash and two new we'd
ding rings, with grateful acknowl'
edgement of their kindness during
the time of trouble.

Of blood from the mangled arm and

Warm, sticky blood smeared his

at his own weakness, and with tender

been eviscerated.
As Durey turned from assisting the

A Naive RepIY.

An American girl who recently re-

MRS. A. PENNELL
DIES OF INJURIES
Never Receivers Consciousness From
Automobile Acct
dent.

Buffalo, N. Y, March 12.-Mrs. Ar
thur Pennell died at the Sisters of
Charity hospital last night at s O'Clock,
never having recovered consciousness
for an instant since the accident. To
ward last evening a rising temperature
and a quickening pulse warned the
surgeons that the end was near, and
she passed away at p. M.
The theory that the death of Pennell
and his wife was a case of deliberate
suicide has been completely smashed.
Experts have examined the auto and
found that Pennell had done every
thing possible to stop the machine
when it started on its frightful short
cut to death. Every bone in PennelIs
head was broken and besides he had
nine fractures of bones from simple
to comminated and a deep cut in his
back.
