Sunday took Denny and hiked out
to the city league park where Rusie
played. Glasscock watched the
youngster work, and both he and
Denny were so impressed that Rusio
was taken downtown after the
game.
The next day Rusie appeared at

became Tiger in the fall of 1905.
In 1906 he didn't show any too much

offered to Cleveland for Elmer

FRIED RATTLESNAKE
AS GOOD AS TROUT

GREELEY, Col, July 1.-THE
difference between fried rattle
snake and mountain trout Is not so
much as one might think, according
to Prof. A. L. Adams of the state
normal school here, who says he
has tried both.
Professor Adams is engaged in
raising a brood Of king snakes,
which he intends turning loose here
abouts to rid the section of rattlers.
Incidentally he has captured num-
Der of the latter. and In trying to
secure a pair, he injured the male
so that it died. Thereupon, he says
he tried cooking and eating a piece
OF 1t and found it good and some
what like trout. The female is stu
much alive.
She is kept in glass case, Sc
curely separated from her enemies,
the king snakes, which Professor
Adams says are becoming quite
tame and probably could be domes-
ticated. .
