The Newtown bee., 1905-07-07

A boy who had been fishing at Taun- ton lake had an exciting experience while walking on the east shore, Satur- day morning. As he was going along through the beach grass a snake about two feet long suddenly sprang at him, and came near enough to him to grab his trousers leg. The boy kicked it off and tried to back away but his snakeship still continued Jumping, the boy keeping up vigorous kicking, finally managing to get far enough away to bring his fish pole into action, when the snake retreated into the lake. A man who was in boat nearby has tened up and hit the snake once or twice with paddle when the snake took to the bottom of the lake where he received parting iab or two, but had gotten in too deep water to be killed. The snake was probably puff head adder as after he took to the water his head swelled up as big as a mans fist. It was probably the most exciting half minute that boy will see in many 2 day, and he was very for tunate to escape unharmed. The probabilities are that the snake had a brood of young ones near, which made it so venOmOuS.

GREAT PLAIN.

IS KEL1sHED BY THE BEST OF MEN. Of all the women in this town, There's one we like the best, For she can bake, and she can brew Ahead of all the rest. And she can drive the "fastest horse'
 Oyer the hills away; For she loves that horse, great deal
 more,
 Than she does the "dapple gray" But it is g fact, that ip this town,
 The women take the lead. At working, in or out of doors
 Or driving "tiery steed." From morn till night, they cheer our sight, For they're always on the run; And the days are never long enough For their "work is never done." Yes, some can "dig" and some can hoe, And some can "waSh and mend," They're always in some grand, good work, For of talent there is no end. Some can sing and some can pray, And some can "fsh" also; But life with us is all too brief, | To tell all that we can do. Some nurse the sick with patience rare, l And share our joys So sweets
 Without them, oh, we dread the l thought, | Life would be incomplete.
 We doff our hat; we "bow our head, 1 For we know with all the rest, That ''man's the noblest work O. | God,"
 But woman is the best.

At St Johns church, North Haven, at 80 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, there took place the wedding of Miss Mabel Grace Smith, daughter of Her bert Parker Smith and Harry CrosWell
 Beers. The bride, who was given in
 marriage by her father, wore gown of beautiful simplicity, it being o1
 white crepe de Paris, trimmed with duchess lace; her hat was Of white tulle with single ortrich feather used as trimming. The maid of honor, Miss Martha J. Smith, sister of the bride, wore a gown of white pineapple cloth She carried beautiful bouquet of pink sweet peas. Miss Florence Peck and Miss Lucy Bishop were the brides
 maids. They wore gowns of pink pine apple cloth and each carried a large
 bouquet of white sweet peas, the effect
 being charming. Dr Ellsworth J. Smith
 was best man, and the ushers were
 Herbert W. Smith, Clarence L.
 Beardsley, Edward L. Heaton and J.
 Richard North. The decoration o1
 the church was most artistic and the arrangement of the flowers (roses, daisies palms and ferns) in the chan eel was very effective. Especially beautiful was the large bower of lau- rel and pink roses at the entrance to the chancel. A full vested choir sing ing the bridal chorus from Lohengrin, preceded the wedding party to the chancel, where they formed a double row on both sides, the stalls having been removed for the occasion. At the .chancel steps the bridal couple were met by Rev Louis A. Parsons of Philadelphia, who read the betrothal service, after which was sung by the choir the hymn, 70 Perfect Love. :"
 The couple were joined in wedlock by the Rev Frederick R. Sanford, rec- tor of the church; Rev William Lusk, who was for long time rector of the parish, pronounced the benediction, then burst forth the joyous strains of Mendelssohn's "Wedding March," At the reception which followed at the home of the brides parents, were pres ent many friends and relatives, both from in and out of town, among those from out of town being MT and Mrs Daniel Beers and daughters, Newtown; Dr E. E. Smith and family, New York; c. w. Lyon, New York; Mrs Trowbridge, New York; the Rev Frederick Johnson, Springfiel d; MT and Mrs Nathaniel Niles, Meriden; Judge Clark and family, Derby, Miss Stout, Germantown; Miss Reehler, c. Walter Bounty, Stam- ford; Miss Pelton, Middletown; Miss Harmon, Miss Wodley, Meriden; Miss Ora Wilcox, West Haven; MT Everts, Jamaica Plain, and Miss Barrows, Ja- maica Plain, and many others. There were also present great many from both New Haven and North Haven. The catering was done by Stuart.
 In their attempt to get away from the house unnoticed, after the recep- tion, the happy couple were foiled, as members of the choir had formed cordon around the house. They were therefore easily detected while mak- ing their escape and received the at- tending good will of all present in plentiful showers of rice.-[New Ha- ven Register.
