Large Rather Killed.

j. Southerlon, of the Lake Butler
section, writes the Telegraph of a mar.
row escape he had the other day from
being bitten by large rattler. He was
pulling corn among heavy peavines,
when his dog came up and crawled in
among the vines 20 lie down a few feet
ahead Of Mr.. Southerlon. The dog sud.
denly gave a yelp and sprang ont. Next
the sharp sound from a rattlesnake was
heard and . large rattler was found
coiled up and ready for business. A
rail was procured and the snake wAi
soon despatched.
The snake had seven rattles and wa
the largest seen in that neighborhood
in years. 1t was very large In circum,
ference And had evidently Just swallow
ed q rabbit. The Circumstance that she
dog first discovered the dangerous rep
tile probably saved Mr.. Southerlon'r
life.

CONFEDERATE WGKGEs MEMORIAL.
Contributions Solicited by Veterans for
Verify Cause.

To Confederate Veterans, Sons of Vet
Grams and Friends Of the Cause:
At q meeting Of the Florida Division
Of Confederate Veterans at Live Oak
October 22nd, q report was read by Gen.
eral Jewell, chairman of the committee,
whose duty it is to raise funds TO erect q
monument In the state Of Florida in
memory Of the noble women Of our
state, those women who served and sac
rifced while the Confederate soldiers
fought and suffered and died for q noble
cause.
This righteous labor Of loving mem
ory to our war women has Jagged and
dragged its way through our reunions
for years. 1t comes up once a year at
our conventions aud then it is laid to
rest as we sing God Be With You Till
We Meet Again"
In the Live Oak reunion the delegates
from J. ]. Dickson Camp, of Stsrke,
consisting of W. T. Weeks, Captain,
and Lieut.. ]. W. Nichols, pledged the
amount of fifty dollars for the benefit of
the above named fund, and TO redeem
our pledge We are appealing to the Con-
federste veterans of Bradford county
and to the sons of veterans and friends
of the cause they represent to contribute
to this fund
In appealing to you we are not asking
aims, nor do we want a contribution
chat does not come as free will offer
ing Of loving memory from men who
cherish the deeds of the noblest women
that ever lived IN this or any other land.
Poets have sung the story Of their
loyalty, historians have written Of their
courageous spirit of service and sacri-
fee, the artists have given them place
upon the heroics of canvas, but the men
of the South have yet to give expression
of their loving gratitude.
Contributions to this fund may be
left with the following persons: E. s.
Matthews or W. T. Weeks, Srsrke; ],
W. Nichols, Raiford; John Croft, Lake
Butler; T. j. burden, Hampton; D. J,
Byrd, Brooker.
II 10 desired to raise the $50 pledged
by J.,J. Dickson Camp in time for the
next regular meeting Of the Camp, which
will be held in Starke on Tuesday, Sep
tember 9th, at 10 O'Clock Q. m. AL
members Of the Camp are urgently re
questsd to attend this meeting and il
the meantime to help in raising our con
tribution 10 the Woman's Memorial
Fund.

As 10 Street Working.

W. B. Kuhl has run the road machine
over several of tha streets this week =,
cleaning the cutters and smoothing the
roadway. He was followed by men
who finished the work where she grader
could not touch and who cleaned out
the entrances to the culverts. II the
grader was run oftener it could do bet
ter work, as it would encounter only
comparatively loose dirt. When the
grass is allowed to grow the sod be-
comes too tough for two-horse grader
TO do much more than simply dag over,
Hitching posts should not be allowed on
the street side of the cutters. as they in
terfere with the grader. The mass Of
boards, brush and tin cans rsked out Of
the cutters tells Why they are 30 often
damned up and made Ineffective. Some
of the cutters, instead Of being made
deeper at each working, should be partly
flIed mp. and when . culvert pipe is laid
it should be placed . little below the
bottom Of the ditch, not above it,, Is ID
generally the case.

TO the Trenton that he was going TO at
tempt to get out. that he was going TO
lose all or none. The other wished him
godspeed and decided that as it was i'm
possible for him to get out and he was
drifting upon the British vessel fast the
only thing for him TO do was TO rescue
the remainder OF the vandalia's crew
that were still hanging to her. So he
hung a tarpaulin in his fore rigging to
act as a sail. slipped his cables, got the
ships head around before the gale and
steered up alongside OF the vandalia.
There, being q much larger ship, she
acted as q brcakwater to the other, and
though she sank those that were left
OF the Vandalia's crew were able to get
aboard and hang on to the ri gging and
the tops OF bridges all night, though the
seas washed over them continually.
THE hurricane lasted only twelve hours,
but il caused terrible havoc both on sea
and land. In the meantime natives
and whites. friends and foes. had come
together on shore to do what they could
to save life. Mataafa's natives rescued
every one they could and we whites
formed a volunteer life saving corps and
attempted to get line to the ship Adler,
which was lying on one side with the water
washing over her. TO rescue the few men
that we could see were still clinging TO her
spars.
