Draooed 10 Death by Kite.

A hoy named William Fletcher met
a fearful death in most singular
fashion at San Francisco the other
day, being dragged off his feet by a
kite he was flying and pulled over
the precipitous heights above a
quarry, dropping a distance OF $50 feet
and meeting instant death.
The kite was ii monster affair and
soon threatened to break away. The
youngster, loath to lose his plaything,
held on firmly, using all his strength
to haul it down. In his efforts to do
so he became entangled in the string.
The huge kite. helped by n strong
wind, began to drag him over the
ground. The boy dug his heels into
the earth in a desperate endeavor to
save himself from the impending
death, but the toy was too strong for
him. He was dragged inch by inch
over the ground to the edge of the
precipice. There he hung for brief
moment, and an instant later was
dragged into space. Then the twine
snapped and the boy went crashing
down the side Of the cliff to an awful
death below.

HOME OF vENoMoUS SNAKES
Deadly Reptiles Have Pre-empted
island In the Center OF New
England Lake.

One of those strange freaks OF ami.
NAL and reptile distribution that puz'
zle the naturalist is found on Rattle
snake island, In Lake Winnepesaukee.
N II. The lake contains 81 islands
OF ali sizes, from few square feet TO
hundreds of acres, but only on Rattle
snake is there TO be found anything
more alarming than the harmless and
pretty garter snake. The country sur
rounding the lake is mountainous and
well wooded. but il is free from
snakes. Rattlesnake island has mo-
nopoly of rattlers
The island Is one of the largest in
the lake as well as the most pictur'
esque. It's name forbids trespass and
1t remains today as virgin as when
the Indians gave the lake its musical
name.
Just why the snakes should have
chosen this particular island for their
abode is a mystery. although an event
of few years ago made it clear how
they might have reached it, Rattle
snake island is several miles out from
the mainland and several hundred
yards from any other island Some
years ago a fisherman. holder than his
fellows, landed on the island and
there cooked his lunch.
Perhaps he was bit nervous, for
he forgot to put out his fire and the
wind famed t. into n blaze. A large
part of the island was burned over
and during the next few days many
rattlesnakes were found on the main
land and the neighboring islands.
Within n week. however. the snakes
were gone from the mainland and not
one snake of a venomous kind has
been found outside OF RattlesLake
island since then.
