SNAKE IN HAIR RAT
Richmond Girl Is Bitten On Head by
YAn0mua RAnfila

Richmond, Aug. Bitten several
times by small moccasin snake
which nested in her "rat" when she
had laid that creation beside her as
she rested in hammock in her front
yard in the evening, Miss Mary Wood
Of the West End, is reported to be in
a serious condition, though she will
recover from the venemous bites.
The girl is department store clerk
and on the day of the strange occur
ence she went to work as usual be-
hind the counter. Her head began
to itch and pain her in a short time.
and taking another girl into her con-
fldence, Miss Wood went to the dress
ing room, where the hair was taken
down.
Several small and swollen splotches
were discovered on her scalp, but lit
tie thought was given to them. En-
during the pain all day. the girl went
home at closing up time and told her
mother Of her discomfort.
The hair was again taken down and
the scalp examined, and drops of
blood With more incisions were dis
covered. The mother then asked for
the "rat'' upon which the young wo-
man was accustomed to do up her
tresses, and, taking It. began squeez-
ing 1t in an absent-minded way. What
was her horror to feel something
wmgsle inside the fussy thing. Hastily
tearing 1t to pieces. the mother was
surprised when Q six-inch moccasin
dropped to the floor and wiggied away,
after striking at her without effect
several times.
The girl tainted at sight Of the rep
tile, and was carried to bed, where
she 10 now under the care Of a ply
sicdan. She stated that the ''rat" had
not been examined after laying in the
hammock In the evening and It IL the
supposition that the reptile got into 1t
then. The bites made the young lady
deathly sick during the agondxing
day she wore the rat"

rounding the pursuit of criminal 80
pregnant with dramatic features as
that enacted off this little settlement
Sunday morning. Inspector Dew
spent sleepless night at the Marconi
operators side, communicating
through the fog with the liner that
bore the man and the women he
sought. The man had deceived him
in London by fleeing the city with the
mystery Of Belle Elmore's disappear
ance unsolved, and strong personal
feeling entered into the case, accentu-
ating the detectives desire to carry
out the task assigned to him by Scot
land Yard.
Shortly after 1880 o'clock Sunday
morning the Montrose pushed her
nose through the fog and at s:15 the
pilot boat Eureka set out from shore.
She carried host of newspaper men
and photographers and more FORUM
ate town people who were able to
crowd aboard her.
But Inspector Dew was not among
them. AS a precaution he had en-
barked on the Eurekas small tender,
accompanied by Chief Mccarthy of
the Quebec police and ex-Chief Denis
of the same city.
To Prevent Suicide.
All wore the garb Of pilots and over
his florid face Inspector Dew had
pulled a pilots visored cap to hide his
features from the man he sought. He
did not wish Crippen to recognize him
before he could approach and take ad-
vantage Of the only avenue of escape
suicide. Four sailors quickly row.
ed the tender alongside the Mont
rose and Dew and his companions
stepped on board.
Crippen was standing near the rail
talking with DIR. Stuart, the ships
surgeon. and attempting to appear
calm But that he was nervous was
indicated by his furtive glances and
his remark to DR.. Stuart: There are
three pilots coming aboard" he said
nervously. Isn't that unusual?" The
surgeon did not reply, but kept his
eyes on the strangers who walked
rapidly toward them.
"Crippen. l want you," said 1nspec-
tor Dew quietly, as he approached.
The dentist recoiled involuntarily as
he recognized the man who addressed
him, then the blood left his face, his
breath came short and fast and he
gurgled incoherently. AS he was be-
ing led away to the captains cabin
whence he was transferred later to
his own state room, he said grateful
ly: THANK God the suspense is over,
and am clad"
Girl Sobs Pitifully.
Crippens arrest accomplished. Dew
hurried to Miss Leneve's stateroom,
where he found her, still dressed as
John Robinson, Jr.," on the verge of
nervous breakdown. Her appearance
when confronted by the detective and
told that she was under arrest was
pitiable. All control that she had
fought so hard to retain throughout
the voyage left her, she cried hys-
terically, and became so faint that
restoratives were administered. Shut
In her room and restored to women's s
dress, she was closely guarded as the
vessel continued its journey for fear
she would take her life or collapse
utterly.
Photographers Arrive.
Crippen was attired in travelling
suit Of blue serge and tweed over
coat. Gold trimmed eye glasses rest
ed on his nose, and from behind them

AS they appeared on the gangplank
and caught sight of the enormous
crowd that surged about the pier des-
perately determined to get a glimpse
of the pair, Crippen and the woman
would have dropped in their tracks
but for the strong arms which sup
ported them. Crippen's manacled
hands swung loosely in front of him.
Miss Leneve swayed from side to side.
Her closely cut hair still gave her the
boyish appearance which she had
tried to adopt: The little procession
had scarcely reached the foot of the
gangplank when the pushing crowd
closed in around them and 1t was
only after the police had charged that
they were able to make the passage
to the waiting cab
Will Not Resist.
DR.. Hawley H. Crippen announced
in the provincial court today he would
not resist his return to England to
stand trial. Crippens companion In
fight, Miss Ethel I.eneve, was to have
been arraigned today but her custodi-
ans reported to the court that she was
too i'll to appear.

the woman will give no more trouble
than Crippen promises to. and that as
soon as the fifteen days of grace pro-
vided by the extradition laws of Ca
NADIA have expired both prisoners can
be returned to London without any
hitch.
Miss Lereve was transferred this
afternoon from provincial Jail to the
hospital. The girl scarcely has been
able to stand since her collapse Of
yesterday when she was taken into
custody. Her condition has excited
much sympathy and the Jail keepers
today suggested to the court that she
be sent to the hospital where she
could receive medical attention, of
which she is plainly in need. During
the day she received three cablegrams
from her. relatives One Of these mes
sages. urged her to tell everything
and another hesofssht her to remem-

sounded hoarsely, a signal to the
