Oklahoma City, Oct. 4--GeorEe

night, died at Bethany hospital Al
an early hour this morning. The
body was taken to the morgue of
Reed 4 Muller, who notified his rcla-

brother, John Williams, lives AZ
Greenbriar, Tenn, and two unclcs,

Padueah, Ky. AT an early hour yes
terday morning the attendants at the
Bethany hospital reported that Geo.
Williams, who was shot by John +

Of the attending physicians that hi
death was matter of only a few
hours. j. W. Thompson, who was
shot at the same time Williams re

some hope for his recovery. Williams
was very restless night before last
and suffered great deal of pain.

SNAKE STORIES POINT MORAL
n Nothing Else, They Show Folly Of
ExaegeratIng Horrors

One OF the significant features Of
this snake season, and OF any snake
season that occurs, which is every
year, is the very long length of the
blacksnakes that are seen. This ls
not at all remarkable for about the
only thing a blacksnake has to show
for itself is its length. 1t has no musl'
cal tail like the rattlesnakc. nor the
puifed.out head Of the kissing viper.
nor the llyid, languid manners OF the
housesnake--lt has only length, and
when with amazing speed It whips
through the deep grass or dead leaves,
Il seems to be 30 or 40 feet long.
SO truly does this little Illusion ox-
ist that when a person tells OF a
blacksnakc seven or eight feet long,
he prides himself on great modesty Of
statement. And, by the way, we have
noted many blacksnake stories this
summer, and we have not encountered
snake under seven feet.
There was that story OF girl out
in York state, who heard her little dog
barking violently out in the stable.
She went there to discover the cause,
and, 10! that little dog was in fight
with blacksnake seven feet long. II
was great fight and the dog was do
ing heroic work, keeping the python
at bay. until the little girl hunted up
pitch fork and with that dispatched
the serpent, which the account says
was seven feet long or course. 1t had
to be seven feet, for there are no 9th
er kind.
Is there a moral TO this? There Is
81 course, to every snake story. 1t Ia
this, be exceedingly careful not tc
make bigger than Il is the horrible In
oldent In your life which you encoun
ter. See that your hlacksnske Is un
