A THRILLING ADVENTURE.
"I always liked hunting, bat I never
will forget a queer hunt I. had when I
was after big game." The speaker vi as
Major Archibald Wendell, at one of the
best known clubs in New Orleans which
was entertaining him. He was well
known as a man of adventure7, and his
story was eagerly listened to by every?
body. "It was in Eio Janeiro," he con?
tinued, "the first month after my ar?
rival. I met an old acquaintance of
rx ine, Jack Dorne, a harum-scarum sort
of Chap, who had Been nearly everything
and had been nearly everywhere from
Boston to Singapore. We had not met
in three years, and there waB never any?
thing more unlikely than our meeting
in that out of-the-way place; and yet I
will give you my word that as I
sauntered up the shady Bide of the street
and met him sauntering down the same
side, we looked up, recognized each oth?
er, and Jack cried, as coolly as .though
we had parted n of an hour before, 'Hel?
lo, Arch! Want to go up into the
mines ? Lots of fun and good hunting.'
That Jack was a funny fellow. He bad
got a 'pull' with some man who was
making loads of. money in the mines,
and he was at that time busily engaged
in laying up for a rainy day. He show?
ed me his bank book with some very
handsome figures to his credit.
"Well, nothing suited me better than
to see the interior .of the country a little,
and the end of it was that in ten min?
utes I had promised to go, and in less
than three hours we were on the way and
were rapidly leaving the city behind us.
We hr.d fine horses. Jack knew every
foot of the'way and was*friends with a
good many people along the road, and.
we could afford to take our time and.
travel as slowly or as rapidly as we felt
inclined. Jack bad stopping places
staked out, as he said, and know quite
well.every day where we were, going to
; spend the night. Jack kept'telling sto?
ries of the fun at the mines, and the
chances for good hunting of all kinds
^here, and we got along very cleverly.
Baton the fourth day, as we jogged
along, an accident happened which up?
set Jack's calculations for that day. j My
horse put his, foot into a bole and . fell
laming himself eobadly that I had xo
walsfarid lead h?m. ?'
"For several hours we made but little
headway, and dark came down and found
us good ten miles short of the place we
intended to stop. 'This don't look very
promising,'said Jack dubiously, trying
to peer ahead into the gathering shad?
ows. 'There's & nasty creek bottom ahead,
and I bat?*Me*smoke 'to* gov through
there after night. I caught a glimpse of
a snake as long as the Atlantic cable in
that bottom and I havn't got through
running yet.'. But the next moment he
cried,.' Why, what was I thinking off
Theresa little hut just in the . edge of
this bottom on this aide; an old herb
ga$heBprlivee; there. Why; of course !
We'll spend the night right there.' And
harrying on we found the hut, a misera?
ble place enoug'j, ? thatched with leaves
and with a great hole broke in one cor
ner of the roof, but a shelter at any rate.
The old herb gatherer was away from
home, but we took possession, lighted a
candlo, helped ourselves to some food we
found in the great corner cupboard and
stretched ourselves on his bed to sleep.
We left the candle burning for the fear
of ghosts, Jack said, and I remember
looking the room over sleepily by its dim
light and seeing the tall; gaunt cupboard
whoBe door we had left, open, and the
dark hole in the corner of the roof. .The
last thing that occurred to me was that I
could see two fiery eyes gleaming out of
the darkness through that hole, and then
I went to sleep. I had a dream that
would have done credit to a candidate for
a Keely institute, it was so full of snakes
and crawling things; aud after had wor
ried over it until I could stand it no !o og
er, I woke up. I lay there for; several min?
utes looking at the candle, which was
burning Tow.: Alter a while I raised my
eyes and started off in a yawn, which
was frozen on my face, as it were, leav?
ing my mouth wide open. For there;
hanging from the hole in the roof and
gracefully swinging to and fro, was about
eight feet of a snake. And such a snake!
Boye, I don't believe Iam exaggerating
one particle when I tell yon that it was
as large around as my body. While 1
lay there and looked at him r.nd saw
those smooth, swaying motions, that
enormous head and the darting tongue
that was kept in constant play, I felt per?
fectly conscious that this snake could
have swallowed me without a particle of
trouble. And however anxious I was
for sport, you know I had no anxiety to
explore the interior of a boa constrictor.
: . "With some faint idea of Belling my
life as dearly as possible, I slipped my
hand softly under the pillow and got my
revolver.. The motion, easy as it wasj
roused Jack, and he half turned. In?
stantly two or three feet of the huge shin?
ing body slipped through the roof and
the horrible head came nearer. Jack
saw it then?that citizen of the world
always go fertile in expedients?and with
one wild shout of 'Great Scott! Jump
.'for the cupboard, Arch!' he flung him?
self in that direction. With a glimpse
of returning reason I scrambled after him,
and in an instant we were crouched on
the floor, under the lowest shelf with the
door closed behind us. We were safe,
because the suake could not open the
cupboard; and we sat there and laughed
and cried in the most nonsensical fash?
ion with our self-control entirely gone.
'Well, if that snake ain'tsold,' was Jack's ,
version of it ;-but I think he felt pretty
serious when he said it, After awhile
we began to find that it was two close in
our cramped quarters and I opened the
door a tiny little bit bo that we could get
a breath of air. We found then that the
candle had gone oat and the room was
as dark as Egypt. But we could hear
something moving in that dark room
soft, gliding motions that made us thank?
ful there were good strong planks be?
tween ub and the something on the other
side.
Time began to pass somewhat heavi?
ly in the cupboard. I pressed my face
close to the crack in the door to get more
freBh air, and something suddenly light?
ly brushed over my face again and again.
1 didn't know what it was at first, but
all at once it flashed upon me that it
was the tongue of that snake. This was
more than I could endure. With a
murmured warning, 'Look out, Jack, I'm
going to fire,' I put my revolver to the
crack and fired at the horrible creature
that was, car easing me with its slimy
tongue. Of course, shut up in that lit?
tle closet, it sounded iik- ,l?e prsr'-- ??f
d,oom,iand wg were d^aicMfld w Uwt it
was fiome time before we could hear any?
thing. When we recovered a little such
sonnda as did greet our ears! Half a
dozen wild horses couldn't have made any
more noise than that snake was making.
We could hear it leap away up against the
walki and fall and twist and writhe, lash?
ing about with its tail and knocking down
everything in the room. At the same
time the air became bo heavy with the
rank, poisonous odor the reptile emitted
that both of as turned deathly sick and
Jack began vomiting.
"At last while the snake was beating
against the walls on the other Bide of
the room, I opened the door a little way,
reached out in the dark and found the
candle. I bad one last match in my
pocket. If it should go out I thought it
was all up with us, for I was quite sure
we couldn't live till morning in that clos?
et. But fortunately the match was a
good one and I made a light, thrust it
out into the room and viewed the wreck.
Coiling, twisting and throwing himself
about in his mad agony, the huge unake
had possession of the place. Walls,
floor and everything else were covered
with his blood and the odor was simply
horrible. Just as I looked out he had
got himself coiled around a stout oaken
chair, and with a tightening of the coils
the chair was splintered, I incautious?
ly opened the door a little too far, and
he hurled himself at" me. I had barely
time to pull the door abut when be
struck it. And then I got Jack to bold
the light while I watched the snake's
motions, took careful aim and fired. That
si.oi, finished him. He struggled
and wriggled blindly all over the room
for a minute or two, but finally straight?
ened himself and lay still. And then
Jack and I crawled out of that closet
more dead than alive, and Jack lit a
candle and asked me if his hair wasn't
gray. And then there was the sequel,
for the old herb gatherer was neyer seen
again! When we found that he^bad real?
ly disappeared, Jack and I looked at one
another and cold chills ran over us, for
we felt as confident then as I do now
that the huge snake on some previous
visit had killed and devoured the help?
less old man, and was merely looking for
another meal when he dropped himself
down from that hole in the roof. No, we
did not look for any more game on that
trip. That one hunt in the night and in
i he dark was enough for one time."
Montana Cattle Thieves.
( The recent outbreak in Johnson Coun?
ty, Wyoming, between the cattlemen
Hnd. the rustlers, has been watched with
no 'little interest by the stock men
throughout the East and West and the
public generally, although it is doubtful
?if c!ae latter fully understands the cause
of the trouble, owing to, the misleading
wording of the dispatches. The manner
in which the wires have applied the
term "rustler" has occasioned no little
merriment among Western men in Wash?
ington.
?A cattle rustJer is a cattle thief, and
the: same term is used among horse,
mule, and sheep men. The rustler has
many plans under which he operates.
One would think it no easy matter to go
.among a carefully guarded herd of stock
land drive awey anywhere from 50 to 300
heed..' Yet it is done. 1
The word metier is derived from the
?way in which thieves usually drive the
cattle ont of the herd. When the herd
is on the range feeding, the herders sleep
i in a little improvised ahanty or tent hear
them. Cattle invariably get up about 2
or 3 o'clock in the morning, graze for an
hour or bo and lie down again, and it is
at ;his time that the rustlers Bteal quietly
up and with branches cut from neighbor?
ing; trees make a rustling noise, which
serves the purpose of starting the cattle
to moving without stampeding them or
arousing the tired and sleeping herders.
A part of the herd are slowly driven
to a distance where the sound of their
hoofs cannot be heard by the herders,
and then the speed is increased to a run,
taking care to keep them in tbe regular
trail, bo they cannot be followed. Some?
times, however, the thieves are heard,
but; usually they get away, as they have
their horses near at hand in chtrge of a
confederate, which they mount, and by
keeping the herd between them and the
owners they beat a safe retreat. The
men do not dare fire in the dark, for fear
of .killing cattle.
Another plan is to make a noise loud
enough to wake the herders, who ruBh
out in blind pursuit of the marauders,
who slip around to the tents, overpower
the men left on guard, and drive off the
herd. When captured, however, as
sometimes happens, justice is swift and
sure. A rope is thrown over a limb, and
the rustler's career quickly ended.
In' the Johnston County trouble it
eeems that the rustlers were very active
and numerous, but could not be traced.
Finally, however, Nate Champion and
his partner, Nick Roy, two small cattle?
men whose reputation was none too good,
were suspected first of illegal-branding,
and from that grew rumors of tbem being
in "cahoots" with tbe rustlers. The
regulators, under Maj. Wolcott and Fred.
Hesse, went to the home of the suspects
and demanded their surrender. Tbey
refused and were killed. Their friends
in the neighborhood, some of them prom?
inent and wealthy cattlemen, believing
them innocent, determined to avenge
their death. A fight ensued and the
regulators were besieged first at tbe "T.
A." and later at the "T. A. R." ranch.
It is simply a fight between two factions,"
The dispatches, however, have designa?
ted all of Champion's and Roy's friends
as "Rustlers." It is alleged by the reg?
ulators that tbe other side has been rein*
forced hy Borne well known rustlers from
Dakota.
The greatest rendezvous for rustlers in
the West is in the Blue Mountains of
Utah, where over 500 outlaws are said to
reside. Tbe county is wildly desolate,
plenty with game, and can only be en?
tered by three narrow passes. One
thing is certain, no posse of regulators
or United States marshals ever tried to
enter it. When they trail rustlers and
find them making for that refuge, they
let them go. The removal of the Utes
to that section shortly will result in the
rustlers being driven from their retreat.
? Two !white smitbB, working in a
blacksmith shop in Atlanta, drank a flask
of carbolic acid last week. One of them
died in a few hours. The other may re?

flask near tbe anvil of one of the men
and stepped out of the shop The smith
thought it was whiskey and drank half of
it. The other emiib, wishing to get his
share, snatched the buttle up and drank
the balance.

A Plncky Parson's Nerve:
Black Fork, N. 0., July 9.--The
Black Forkers have been having an in?
teresting time of it lately. Jim Fell's
boy Jack had made things so lively for
the varmints and other peBts along the
creek that for a while nothing else was
talked about. But a day or two ago an
old Hardshell Baptist preacher, Mica
jah Peters, had an experience which has
dimmed the lustre, for the time at least,
of Jack's local notoriety, and the old
fellow now stands at the head of the
Black Forkers as a wildcat fighter.
About a week ago tho Rev. Micajah
started horseback from Bald Mountain
settlement for Black Fork, but, being
j somewhat absentminded, when he reach?
ed the forks of the road, instead of tak?
ing the regular route, he unintentionally
turned his horse into the longer and
more dangerous path over Wildcat
Eidge. ThiB section has been noted for
the number and the ferocity of the wild?
cats thac make it their headquarters, and
there are few men who would undertake
to go through it unarmed in daylight.
But Micajah wasn't thinking of wildcats;
he was pondering over a sermon which
he intended to deliver the next day for
the spiritual benefit of the Black Fork?
ers.
While the horse was wading the creek
about Bix miles from the Fork, the. old
man, happening to look up, saw two
pretty, fluffy, bob-tailed and innocent
looking kittens, looking like bunches o 1
gray fur, rolling and tumbling in play a
short distance away on the bank. He
made up his mind to capture the pair
alive and take them over to Black Fork
as a present to Jim Fell's boy Jack.
Dhimounting he approached as closely as
possible and made a grab for the little
fellows, but missed them both. One oi
them ran into a hollow log near by and
the other took to the woods. The lat?
ter was easily overtaken, but before he
could be secured he had severely scratch?
ed the preacher's hands. The one in
the log was harder to capture, and it was
not until after half an hour or more that,
with the aid of a forked stick he had
him out. Both of the kittens were put
into the inseparable saddle pockets
along with half a dozen hymn books, a
lot of tracts and other orthodox litera?
ture, i
The Rev. Micajah wiped his face, tied
up his wounded hand, mounted his horse
and started in a hurry for the Fork, foi
it was getting late, and it had just dawn?
ed upon his mind that he was in a bad
part of the country. He had ridden about
two miles when, in a dense forest, he
slackenend rein to give the horse a
breathing Bpell. Just then be heard a
shrill scream above him on the moun?
tain Bide. Directly another yell awoke
the echoes behind him, and he put his
horse into a trot, as he could go no fas?
ter over the rough path. Another scream
closer than before admonished the now
alarmed preacher that there was trouble
coming, and that all the spurring and
whipping he could give his horse couldn't
save him from it.
Old Micajah is no coward, and every?
body in that region knows it since he
lammed Tug Teeters, the bully, for dis?
turbing a "meeting;" but he didn't han?
ker after the kind of tussle .which he
knew was coming. Dismounting he
quickly cut him a heavy hickory club,
which he had hardly. trimmed when he
heard the catamounts coming. They
both appeared at the same time and both
struck the road ahead of where the
preacher stood. They had scented
the kittens and had run ahead to cut him
off. One of the wildcats was a tremen?
dous fellow, and as he sprang at the
preacher's throat his lips were turned
back, displaying a wicked front of serra?
ted ivory.
Micsjah was on the alert for the big
cat's spring, and jumping to one side,
gave the creature a terrible whack on
the head, which sent it on its back. Be?
fore the parson could recover his guard
the female came up and she made a
spring, catching his shoulder with her
claws, raking his coat and shirt sleeves
into ribbons, and tearing the skin and
flesh in five long cuts, Bix inches down
the left arm. The wounds were painful
and the dominie, it is believed, came
very near expressing himself in an unor?
thodox manner. He shook her off, but
by this time the big cat had regained its
feet, and both beasts began to creep to?
ward the preacher evidently intending
to leap upon him at the same time.
The dominie backed up against a big
tree and waited, but he didn't have to
wait long, for the big cat, with a snarl of
rage leaped at his throat, while the fe?
male crept a little to one side with the
intention of making a flank movement.
It was to this manoevure that the preach?
er probably owed his life,because the male
cat leaped before the female got ready to
attack. The dominie made one step to
the right, and as the creature struck
the tree he hit it on the back of the neck
with his club, knocking it senseless.
By another rapid movement Micajah
evaded the female cat, which struck the
base of the tree with a yell of rage. The,
dominie gave it a heavy blow, but unfor?
tunately in striking his foot slipped, and
the hickory, instead of landing on the
creature's neck, struck it on the side. As
the cat fell it caught the dominie's loft
leg in its claws and teeth, and over they
both went rolling and tumbling, the cat
scratching and tearing with claws and
teeth, while the dominie fairly made the
hickory sing as it played upon the cat's
body. One lucky blow broke the cat's
back, ending the fight so far as the fe?
male was concerned. Just in the nick of
time, for when Micajah got upon hid feet
the big male was preparing to make
another attack. The dominie didn't wait
for the cat to spring, but went right at it,
and with two or three blows, in which
were concentrated all his remaining
strength, he laid out the brute for good.
Now that the fight was over the do?
minie found himself fearfully scratched
and torn, and weak from exhaustion, but
he knew it would not do to atop to rest
lest he stiffen too much to move at all.
By the greatest effort he managed to
mount his horBe, and then he rode as rap?
idly as possible to the nearest house,
which happened to be Jim Fell's, where
he intended to stop. When he arrived
he was too sore and stiff to dismount, and
old Jim and Jack carried him into the
cabin, where his wounds were dressed,
and he w?b put to bed. The dominie
can sit under the lean-to now and watch
the little bobtailed kittens as they play
with Jack's old gray cat and her young
ones, but it will be several weeks before
he will be able to preach. The old man
says he whipped a bear once with an
axe-handle, but he wouldn't "tackle an?
other pair of wildcats with a Gatlln
gup."?A'-lanta Cnmli'utin?.

? The search for oil amid the moun?
tains of North Alabama ha? at last been
rewarded at Hartselle, in Morgan Coun?
ty. The well is 1,706 feet deep, and the
drill has penetrated only a foot into the
oil-bearing sand. The oil rises 300 feet
in the well, and is clear and beautiful.
Gas flows from the top of the well, and,
when lighted, the flame burned ateadily
for twenty feet in the air. The prospect?
ing has been done by experts from Penn?

? What about a free ride in a one
horse wagon for a County Commissioner.
A voter in this County once Bent a Coun?
ty Commissioner word that he wanted to
Bee him on important business. The
County Commissioner went. He was in?
vited to take a seat in a wagon on a har?
row with the teeth turned up. He did so
and was driven at a rapid rate over five
miles of rough road. "Now," said the
voter, "don't you think the roads need
work?" Our County. Commissioners
had better beware of any man who
wants to give them a free ride.--Picfons

A correspondent of the New York
Tivies says:
Several years ago I read in a scientific
paper a statement that in bodies of per?
sons that had died of cholera, yellow or
typhoid fevers, there was found a lack of
chlorides in the blood. This suggested
the following: Should not the lack of
chlorides in the system make it easier
for those scourges to take hold ? Com?
mon salt?chloride of sodium?"keeps"
meat and other things by meansof pre?
venting the growth of the germs of pu?
trefactive fermentation.
During the heated term people perspire
much, and every drop of perspiration
takes salt out of the system. In the hot
seasons these ocourges are most virulent.
I have acted on this theory ever since I
read the statement, in summer com?
plaints and cholera morbus, with decided
and immediate success in every case.
I take a tumblerful of water, add a tea
spoonful of raw corn starch and a tea
spoonful or two of common table salt,
stir well, and drink it as much and as of?
ten as I can without causing nausea. The
taste of salt is not ugly when the system
needs salt. I have tried this more than
a hundred times in cases of summer
diarrhoea and cholera morbus with in?
variable, prompt success.

A LONG FELT WANT!
AFTER FIVE YEARS of patient and persevering endeavor I have at last succeeded
in getting control of the best hand-made copper distilled Whiskey in the world.
This Whiskey has been tested by the United States Chemist at Washington, D. C, and
declared to be perfectly free from all poisonous chemicals generally present in the dis?
tillation of all Whiskeys commonly used in the United States. It is entirely free from
the maddening effect, the nauseating of the stomach, and the immediate intoxication
that is always the result of the use of an inferior article. It is pleasant to the palate,
has not that burning effect so common in other goods. It is strengthening, invigora?
ting and mild, giving the bouyancy of youth to old age. It is stimulating to the over?
worked and feeble; in cases of concumption, heavy colds, weak lungs, debility and loss
of appetite it is quickly recommended by the leading doctors and hospital physicians
in the United States, and no sick room should be without it. All enfeebled, weak, old
and infirm should take it daily as directed, and thereby regain that bouancy and strength
that countless thousands stand so much in need of. This Celebrated Whiskey ia sold
as cheap as a very common article, and can be found for sale at
JOHN O'DONNELL'S PALACE SALOON,
SOUTH MAIN STREET, ANDERSON, S. C
In addition to the above I have the different vintages of Europe, inclrdingthe cele?
brated bands of Wines from Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Porcugal. Also,
Scotch and Irish Whiskeys, Dublin and London Porter, Bass Ale, and all other Liquors
that go to complete a First Clas8 Saloon. 'JOHN O'DONNELL.
