One of the largest -rattlesnakes on
record in Beaufort county was killed
near Blount's Creek a few days ago
by Mr.. Jesse r. Lewis. 1t seems that
Mr.. Lewis was cutting brush prepara-
tory to building a fence and aroused
the RATHER in his den, who Immediate
ly issued forth to give battle, striking
at Mr.. Lewis several times before he
was finally killed with a club. The
snake when stretched out was a little
over six feet long and nearly twelve
inches in circumference and had nine
teen rattles and a button, making him
t~wenty-one years of age.

Wadesboro Observation-Disclosures.
While in Wadesboro a few days ago
Mr.. J. Frank Randall, of Ansonville
township, gave a graphic description
of a fight he saw the day before be-
tween a king snake and a big RATHER.
The rattlesnake was considerably
larger than the king snake and to
look at them one would not think it
possible for the smaller reptile to
swallow the larger one, but this, Mr..
Randall states, is just what occurred.
The fight, which took place in the road
neal Mr.. Randa1Ps home, was W.T.
messed by all the members of his fam
lily as well as himself. After the bat
tie had been i n progress sometime the
king snake managed to tie himself
around the body of the RATHER about
ten inches from the latter's head. The
RATHER, after this feat had been accom-
plished, made several attempts tC
strike its antagonist, but without suc
cess. The king snake squeezed its
could be heard to crack some dis.
lance. The king snake then united
itself from the RATHER and commenced
slowly swallowing the rattler, the lat.
ter all the time making frantic strug.
giles to escape. After several inches o.
the rattler's anatomy had disappeared
into the king snake the former man
aged to tie it's tail around a small busf
and then there was a mighty pull OF
the part of both reptiles which contin
ued until Mr.. Randall united the tai
of the RATHER. From this time on th'
process of swallowing continued unit
at last every vestige of the big rattlel
disappeared into the stomach of tn
: king snake.

THE cHlLDRENs NATIONAL Hu:
 MAINE SOCIETY.

The Sitka children have a society which is called. the Children's national Humane Society. The headquarters are IA E. 2S St. New York City. In order to join the children all had to promise that they will be kind to all animals; this is the pledge. It is a good thing for children to have be- cause they will be kind to all things more helpless than they. The child ren who belong to the society wear a badge to show people that they be- long.
 Our society started last year when the teacher saw how cruel the child ren were to the animals. This year the society has improved and we el- ected president. He and his help CTS look after the society and see that the children keep their promises and are not cruel to animals. All the children in sitka should belong to the National Humane Society, and other towns in Alaska should have societies also. H5aa@ -'

say how and where money in the

legitima.ely spent, even though TO
part of this particular sum is to be
expended in a certain neightcrhcoi?
ANY disinterested person will say no.
It is in bad taste. as we'll as grossly
unfair. for the couacilmen and alder
men from the First ward to 80 about
saying that they have been robbed"
by their colleagues. Perhaps che
term robbed" has been applied in a
jesting way, but the intimation. CT
rather direct declarations. that the
members representing the Second.
