Kills Turtle to Save Hoq.

w. F. James. an Arkansas sawmill
man and planter, relates a turtle story
which he says occurred near his home
recently. Jim Gullick heard a pig
squealing and upon investigation found
that a large turtle had come up out Of
the water. had seized a pig and was
dragging its victim back to the water
when the hog became fastened be-
tween two cypress trees and the turtle
could not move it farther. All that
Mr.. Gullick could do would not make
the turtle release its hold on the ami
NAL, and he returned to his home and
secured an AK and chopped the turtles
head off. This turtle weighed more
than a hundred pounds and was doubt
less very old.

POWDER PEELED HER ARM.
Explosion Took Skin Off In Shape of
|ous2ue.aire Glove.

%o452as:aire Giov7.
Caught in the fare of an explosion
which resulted from her oNn rash act
In pouring powder into the stove in
mistake for oil. Mrs. John Lis OF Wash
ington county. Pa. had the skin of her
left arm stripped off from the elbow
to the finger tips. Neighbors who rush
ed into the house to her relief discov-
cred ON the door what looked like Il
long glove. They picked it up and
discovered it was Il glove of human
skin, with the finger nails at the ends
Of the fingers. There was not a break
in it anywhere. Even the finger nails
were attached to the skin as naturally
as though they still formed part of the
victims hand. Surgeons who rushed
to the house We're amazed when they
saw the effect of the explosion. They
also discovered the entire left side Of
her body and the outer side of the left
leg also had been stripped of skin.
'Singularly enough" II of the sur
geons said, "there was not an abrasion
on the arm or leg, and the nail cells
were not injured. Will she recover!
Certainly. There is nothing to prevent
It. There never was perhaps such a
freak effect from an explosion Of pow.
der"
Mrs. Lis was in a hurry to build q
fire. She decided to accelerate the worI
by using kerosene. Picking up what
she supposed was the oil can, she turn
ed it up and poured its contents into
the stove. Unfortunately there was
lingering spark from the last fire. The
powder which she had poured in by
mistake ignited, and instantly there
was an explosion which startled til,
neighbors and sent clouds of smoke
pouring out through the windows
When those neighbors saw the Ion.

SWUNG HIS o sAvAGELY DOWNWARD.
years old and built like a man of iron,
became suddenly crazed as a result Of
too much rum. Darling out of his
lodging house, 60 Summit place, he ran
almost to the waters edge, shouting at
the top of his voice.
Near the foot of Hamilton street he
seized a bale hook and stood his
ground, mumbling and shrieking in his
Swedish dialect and brandishing his
weapon.
Robert Stevens, thirty-five years old,
living at 435 Columbia street, was the
first to get near him.
Anderson knew Of Stevens prowess
and evidently did not relish a combat
with his powerful frame. He had
enough sense left to know that he'd
have a better chance in the water with
Stevens, who is six feet tall and mus
cular, so Anderson jumped in the river
carrying his hook with him. Stevens
followed. He dived directly where An
derson's form was last seen.
No one knows just what happened
under the water. Several persons who
gathered on the pier say that every
few seconds an arm or a leg would ap-
pear above, and one Stevens face
arose, showing a great cash down the
right side. Once Anderson reached
the surface and swung his hook saw
agely downward. A stiffness followed,
and only bubbles showed that life re-
NAMED below the water. In a few
seconds Stevens came up and feebly
cried for help.
Charles Walsh, who had arrived dur
ing the struggle and was vainly try
ing to learn the cause Of the excite
ment, jumped in. He found one Of
Stevens hands clutching the Swede by
the neck. Anderson was unconscious,
and Stevens was fast losing the little
strength that remained. Walsh tied
a rope about Anderson's body, and he
was pulled ashore. Several men jump
ed into the river and dragged Stevens
to safety.
Stevens face and head were q mass
of cuts and bruises. Blood poured pro.
fusely from a deep cut in his face,
and his arms and shoulders were
barred of their clothing. Anderson
showed effects, too, Of the fearful con
test under water. His face was bat
tered and bruised. and both his eyes
were closed.
An ambulance Of the Long Island
hospital was called, and both mer
were given medical attention. DR.
Doyle said that Anderson may die as
a result Of his injuries.
Stevens told the police that the mar
bit and gouged him with the hool
and that several times he was abou'
to give up. He says he overcame An
derson only by w%renching the hool
from his hands. Anderson without thu
weapon was no match for him.
