The Blacfcsnake's Ways.
^ "You wouldn't believe me/' said old
Jacob Bloom of Laurel Ban to a gang of
woodsmen the other day, "you wouldn't
believe me if I'd tell you the blacksnake
is boas among snakes in this country, but
it's a fact. A blacksnake will whip any
other kind of a snake you can trot out,
and not half try."
Some of the boys laughed, says the
Pnnxutawney Spirit, and said they didn't
think a blackenake would be in it with a
rattlesnake at all. There was a large
rattlesnake in the camp which the woods?
men kept in a box with a glass cover on
to amuse themselves with after working
hours.
Jim Brewer, of this place, who hap?
pened to be there at the time and heard
Mr. Bloom's observations, chipped in
and said:
"I'll bet a blackanake would not last
long if you'd put him in the box with
that rattler."
"Wouldn't I" exclaimed Bloom, "Why,
he'd choke the rattler to death before he
knowed what was the matter with him,
an' in order to convince you o' the fac'
I'll go out an' capture a blackanake an'
show yon."
The subject was then dropped and the
boys forgot it, but about 1- o'clock in the
afternoon the old man came in with a
blacksnake a little over three feet long.
The rattler was nearly two feet longer.
"Now," he says, "I'll show you how
it's done."
And he put the blacksnake into the
box with the rattler.
Both Bnakes seemed to be considerably
agitated. The rattler shook his tail with
an angry whizz and stuck out his tongue
in a menacing way, and the blacksnake
squirmed around and made several feints
with his tail. The rattler was angry and
coiled himself to strike, but before he
was quite ready the blacksnake had
taken a hitch around the rattler's neck
with his tail and begun to haul taut.
The rattler writhed and squirmed and
thumped himself around, but all to no
purpose. The blacksnake kept his hold
and drew tighter. Finally the contor?
tions of the rattler ceased. He was
dead. The blacksnake held on five
minutes longer, then calmly unfolded his
tail and hurled himself up in a corner of
the box.
"There 1" said the old man, triumph?
antly. "Hereafter when I tell you any?
thing about snakes you can put it down
as facts."
A Tree Deeded to Itself.
In one respect at least the Olarke
County (Ga.) court house is the reposi?
tory of the most remarkable legal docu?
ment ever drawn up by man. It is on
file in the o.Sce of the recorder of deeds,
where it has been for nearly a century.
The unique legal document is in shape
of a deed, the grantee being an oak tree.
The tree as it now stands is in front of
the residence of Major Stanley at Athens,
on what was formerly a farm owned by
Colonel W. H. Jackson. It was an odd
transaction all round, one eminently
characteristic of the grantor, who was
known as a man of strong loves and
hates, having many of the former and but
few of the latter. He and the old tree
grew up together, and the leanings of his
peculiar nature caused him to reverence
the gigantic oak as though it were a
thing of animate life.
When in ripe old age the colonel re*
fleeted that he would soon be called,
hence it grieved him to think of leaving
the tree to the mercy of any destroyer
capable of wielding an ax. With the
thought in mind he went to the court?
house and recorded this remarkable in?
strument : "I, W. H. Jackson, of the
County of Clarke, State of Georgia, of
the first part, and the oak tree (giving
location) of the other part, witnesseth:
That the said W. H. Jackson, for and in
consideration of the great affection he
bears for said tree and his desire to see It
protected, has conveyed and by these
presents does convey and confirm unto
said tree entire possession of itself and of
the land within eight feet of it on all
sides." From the tenor of the deed tho
tree is not only possessor of itself, but is
a Georgia real estate holder.
A Timely legend.
.The fear of cholera kills more peo ple
than the cholera itself was-illustrated by
a story told by an old German citizen
yesterday. Many years ago, while the
cholera was raging in parts of Germany
and extending daily its baneful influence,
au old doctor, taking an evening stroll
outside the gates of his town, saw coming
towards him a horrible object. Its form
and shape was human, but-its aspect was
a mass of corruption.
"Who are you ?" asked the doctor.
"I am the cholera."
"Where are you going ?"
"I am going to that town."
The doctor, terrified, pleaded and beg?
ged for the monster to change its route,
but to no purpose. Its road led through
the town and into the town it must go.
But to compromise with the good old
doctor the cholera promised not to kill
more than five people in tho town. Next
morning the physician was called to a
patient, whom he found to have the
cholera. The cases multiplied hourly
and consternation spread among the peo?
ple of the city, and all those who could
get away did bo. There were not five,
but there were 5,000 deaths in the town.
After the cholera had subsided the doc?
tor, in his walks, again met the cholera
apeotre, and upbraided it for not
having kept its word with him. Said
the cholera:
"1 swear I have kept my promise?not
killed more than five of your fellow-citi?
zens. The others died of fear."?Cin?

Eagle Pass, Tex., Sept. 9.?The
little town of Leons, Mexico, twenty
five miles South of here was the scene of
a sensational doable tragedy iast night.
The Mayor of the town is Julian Cre
dentz, a young man of fine personal ap?
pearance and much ability. He was
supposed to be the favorite suitor of Miss
Anita Lopez, daughter of a wealthy land
and mine owner. Cerdentz had a rival
in Lieut Rafael Soles, of the Mexican
Army, who was sent here at the time of
the Garza excitement with his company,
and has been stationed here since.
Lieut, Sole3 became insanely jealous of
Mayor Cerdentz and threatened to kill
him and Miss Lopez if he ever saw them
together. He carried this threat into
execution last night at a fandango given
by the society people of Leona which
was attended by the couple.
Lieut. Soles met them at the door as
they were leaving the ball room and shot
them both. They fell in each other's
arms. Their slayer made his escape.
He is believed to have made for the
mountains. A detachment of his own
company of soldiers is in pursuit.
There iB great excitement at Leona
over.the affair. Lieut, Soles stands high
as an officer in the Mexican Army.
A Farmer's Assurance Company.
On Saturday last at a meeting in the
court house the farmers of Fairfield
County organized a branch of the Far?
mer's Mutual ABBurance Company. This
company was organized in Chester Conn*
ty sometime ago and under the charter
granted the privilege of organizing in
other Counties was given.
The officers of the local branch are
President T. P. Mitchell, Secretary and
Treasurer T. K. Elliott.
The object of the association is to pro?
cure for farmers cheap insurance, as the
rates of insurance on country houses are
very much higher than on property situ?
ated within reach of fire service.
Each member of the association is re?
quired to pay an initiation fee of one
half per cent, of the face of the policy, no
further payment being made until the
occurrence of a fire, in which event as?
sessed in proportion to the value of their
policies.
A number of members were enrolled
Saturday and the association will doubt?

Fall from a Train.
Mukcie, Ind., Sept. 17.?Louise No
sek and her 18 months-old baby, of St.
Louis, has been visiting Mrs. Nosek's
parents in Cleveland, Ohio, a nd yester?
day they were returning bom ) in a Big
Four passenger train. While the train
was blowing along at the rate of forty
miles an hour, near Rushelvania, Ohio,
Baby Nosek became fretful and its moth?
er was holding its arms close to an open
window. Suddenly the child gave a leap
and shot out of the window. The moth?
er and other ladies in the car screamed
with fright.
The train was stopped and backed to
the place where the baby lay. Instead
of finding the lifeless corpse, the little
one was found Bitting on a pile of gravel,
near the track. He was uninjured ex?
cept a Blight bruise on the forehead. The
mother was almost frantic with joy on
finding her darling unhurt.
The Latest In Insurance.
London, Sept. 21.?The Provident
Bounty association has published a pros?
pectus, recommending itself to the pat?
ronage of all families, and especially to
that of young ma'ried couples. Its ob?
ject is to insure married people against
twins and triplets. A married man,
expecting to become a father, the pros?
pectus states, must deposit five
pounds to become a policy holder. In
case the policy holder's wife has twins,
he will receive fifty pounds; in case she
has triplets seventy-five pounds. The
conditions of issuing policies are simple,
and are intended to appeal especially to
the lower middle class, including the
young bookkeepers, shop clerks and
small tradesmen. The capital of the
concern is ?10,000. All the directors
are reputable men of considerable prop?
erty.
? Two Americans in London were
speaking of a mutual friend. One said,
"You tell me he left no money." "No,"
replied the other; "you see, he lost his
health getting wealthy and then lost his
wealth trying to get healthy."
? New York is to have another great
hotel. It is to be seventeen stories high
and to cost $600,000. Those who occupy
the top story will have a long way to
travel in a hurry in order to reach a place
of safety in the event fire breaks out in
the building.
? There is a cat in Portland, Ind.,
which associates entirely with the henB,
eating everything they eat, even shelled
corn; and every night it perches itself
on the roost alongside of old rooster. The
hens have learned to accept the situation
and now look upon the cat as one of
themselves.
? Glass, as far as research has been
able to determine, was in use 2,000 years

bought a box of cayenne pepper, took a
nice lock of hay, piaced it outside, 'bap?

animal came along and pitched into the
hay, when suddenly she took the hint,

? There is an ancient superstition that
the milk of red cows is better than that
given by cows of any other color. A
Frenchman travelling through Great

noted that cows wero oftener black than

the milk of red cows was preferred to
those of black cows. He added that the
contrary was true of Europe. Referen?

? A small village in proximity to too
neighborhood of Portici, Southern Italy,
is remarkablo for its venerable inhabi?
tants. Ono of its most industrious farm?
ers ia 105 years old, while twenty of his
neighbors have passed the age of 90. All
are natives of the place, and some of
long-lived ancestors. They live very
lainly, rarely touching moat, and

enjoy the best of health, and, if ig?

numbered 150 men, and were in command
of tho notorious and merciless Josso
James and Colo Younger. Having halt?

demanded of Liout. Graves that he imme?
diately surrender to them tho Federal
soldiers. This, hofelt, would bo to hand
thom over to bo massacred, and, with an
honor and valor that were chivalric, he
defiantly declined to do so. Riding in
front of bis men, addressing thoguorilla
leaders, Lieut. Graves said that tho men
they asked to be surrendered wore in his
chargo, and that ho and his men would
die in defence of their trust and tho Fed?
eral soldiers. This courageous declara?

except such as cover enough clothing to
stand upright iu and mechanics' tools
actually in use. In the course of a twelve
months' business tour through England,
a house in which I was boarding was
emptied from garret to collar by process
of law, and it was with the utmost dif?
ficulty that I rescued my trunk and per?
sonal bolongings. Everything was sold
under the hammer to satisfy a court
judgment and a claim for rent, and as the
proceeds were loss than the claim, the
family hud to secure furnished rooms for
fear of a second distraint. None of tho
neighbors shared my feoling of indigna?
tion at seeing beds and oven children's
cots thrown out into the streets, tho event
being evidently too common to causo
surprise. Right in line with this is the
faotthat, although imprisonment for debt
is no longor legal, the judgo of a county
court can commit any man for six weeks
who has failed to satisfy a judgment if it
can be proved that ho either has or could
have earned enough since it Was issued
to pay. A man who owes a good deal
can escape by bankruptcy, but emigra?
tion is about the only hope for a poor
man who owes tho amonnt of a few
weeks' earnings."

Now for the testimony. Dr. Martin, of
Atlanta, testifies that he has used?
Stuart's Gin and Buchu
In his practice wilh fine results, and that
he has even cured Bright's disease of the
kidneys with it after all other remedies
failed
Dr. Fontaine, of Rex, Ga , testifies that
he has been prescribing Stuart's Gin and
Buchu for some time, and that it is the best
remedy he knows for kidney, urinary and
all bladder troubles.
Mr. E. D. L. Mobley, of Atlanta, testi?
fies that he suffered tor years with some
obscure kidney trouble, which at times
gave him great pain and suffering. Al?
though he tried ail manner of remedied,
both regular and irregular, he found no
relief until he took STUART'S GIN and
BUCHU. It made a perfect cure. Wecould
add much of same kind of testimony, but
apace and time forbid. If you suffer, try
a bottle?it will not disappoint you.

TRUNK
A LONG FELT WANT!
AFTER FIVE YEARS of patient and persevering endeavor I have nt 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 tire 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 yonth to old age. It is stimulating to the over?
worked and feeble : m cases of consumption, heavy colds, weak lungs, debility and loss
of appetite it is quickly recommended |jy the leading doctors and hospital physicians
in the United States, and no sick room enould be without it. All enfoeblpd, 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 is sold
as cheap as a very common article, and can he found for sale at
JOHN O'DOMELL'S PALACE SALOON.
SOUTH MAIN STREET, ANDERSON, S. C.
In addition to the above I have the different vintages of Europe, including the cele?
brated bands of Wines from Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Portugal. Also,
Scotch and Irish Whiskeys, Dublin and London Porter, Bass Ale, and all other Liquors
that go to complete a First Class Saloon. JOHN O'DONNEIX.
