A SNAKE STORY.
The Yarn That Was Spun by Trav-
eIer In Australia.

The Yarn That Was Spun by Trav-
eIer In Australia.
An Australian traveller says that he
was one day walking in the thick
scrub, collecting specimens, when he
came upon large light brown snake,
a species of python, coiled upon the
ground.
He was by far the finest one he had
ever seen at large. He was probably
ten or twelve feet long and as thick
as a mans leg at the knee.
He looked savage enough to devour a
man. and at first the collector felt half
inclined to run away.
He recovered himself, however, and
was on the point of shooting the SER
pent with a charge Of dust shot In
order to carry home his skin when 1t
occurred to him that he would be
worth five times as much II he were
taken alive.
Il had" he says, "a leather strap
with buckle In my game bag, and
with this determined to moose the
snake.
came near he partly uncoiled, opened
his mouth very wide, thereby discos
ing his sharp teeth. and, Kissing spite
fully. struck at me. lodged behind
a small tree and. leaning out as far
as dared, tried several times to
moose him.
after l had leased him for some
time he suddenly started of at full
speed I caught my gun and by dint
of hard running through the thick
scrub managed to head him of. He
coiled. and again tried the moose. but
he put his head under his coils In
very sulky manner. reached out from
my shelter behind a tree and caught
him by the tail. but he pulled away
with great force and glided Off again.
''This time he took refuge under
fallen tree and before could head
him OF was gliding down the hole of
some wild animal.
II reached the spot just as the last
two or three feet of his body were
disappearing. and, selling his tail with
both hands, hung on desperately.
With my feet braced against limb
Of the tree pulled till the tall cracked
and snapped as II 1t would break asun-
der. Sometimes he pulled me to with
In few inches Of the hole. and then
I would brace myself against the limb
and drag him halfway out.
"At last l grew so tired that l had
to let go my hold, and with many re-
grets l saw the last few inches of the
tail disappear beneath the earth"
