TAGGING 4 FoUR-FooT RATHER


 | Boyden R. Sparkes in Leslies Dr. Ditmars, curator of reptiles at the New York Geological park, re- centN went on a rattlesnake hunt with three others on mountain in sight of New York city. While tramp ing about shrill, stridulous noise caused him to freeze in his tracks
 There's big fellow" he shouted to Gillian. He's under this rock" and stepped upon stone slab as | large as the top of a taxicab The rattling ceased for minute. but re- sumed with greater intensity as Dit mars shifted his weight and caused the stone to tremble.
 We've got to get him out" he said, and he was as gleeful as a boy. Gillian came running up with d long. green stick and poked it into crevasse between the rock slab and the stone flooring upon which 1t rested
 The whirring continued short distance away similar noises re- sponded
 Gillian cut a young sapling for lever. Using small rock for full crum he soon lifted one end of the slab and exposed a segment of the rattler. Again the long stick was in- serted by Dr. Ditmars and this time a flat lance head shot out into the open, dragging after it the rest of yellowish and black body that tfreshed itself into coils in flash of time.
 The tail was vibrating furiously. Evll shone from the yellow eyes. The snake was over four feet long. Almost quicker than that of the rep tlle itself was Dr. Ditmar's abrupt action. He showed the forked end of ms stick at the alert head held a few inches above the stone and suc- ceeded in pinning the serpent there. The snakes head was held fast but the rest of that Timber creature writhed and twisted until it seemed 1 that the head would be separated from the body. Dr. Ditmars then laid another stick across the reptiles head at the widest portion and rest ed his foot on it. The forked stick he tossed to one side Quickly he knelt and with his thumb and second finger grasped the neck just back of the swollen jaws. He brought his index finger down on top of the evil head. With his other hand he secured grasp of the con- l torting body at point where it be- Sdh tO tdptt iitOT tHS tdll. Then ne rose and held the rattler a helpless prisoner
 The snake opened it's mouth wide, it's fangs protruded from web Of membrane. and from them dripped an oily liquid in such extreme pro- fusion 1t fairly seemed to squirt.
 Venom explained Gillam stand ing nearby, his eyes shining with ecstasy.
 Mean disposition, what?" com mented the captor. Will you hold the sack, Cora?'
 Mrs. Ditmars unrolled a muslin flour sacks and held the top open Inserting the reptiles still buzzing tail into this aperture, Dr. Ditmars released its body but kept his clutch on the head. He lowered the en- gagged hand until the snakes still open jaws were on a level with the top of the sack. Then, deftly. he re- leased his hold and the surprised and angry crotalus dropped to the bottom of the sack, where he promptly coiled and continued to threaten ven- geance with his noisy tail. Mrs Dit mars adroitly twisted the top of the sack and then carried it as carelessly as though 1t contained the luncheon. UrruV<n suyu TN m
