PIC NIC AT MT. PLEASANT.
Ascenaion Day picnic was attended
by about a thousand happy people. The
exercises were most interesting. It be
ing, still unsettled whether the'ad
dresses of the speakers or the
good things on the tables were most
tertainlng. There was muon more
of the latter than the former. Rev.
J. U. Wilson, always graceful and
gifted, was an admirable master of
ceremonies. The address of President
G. B. Cromer, of Newberry College,
was a gem in its way, but had the
great fault of being entirely too
brief. Capt. W. E. Sease gave a good

TILLMAN THROWING ROCKS.
Little Rock, Ark., May, ^13.—Senator
Tillman of South Carolina addressed an
audience pf 5,(KK) persons here to-night
under the auspices of the Little Rock
Democratic Bimetallic League. Ihe
speech was similar iu every respect to
the one he delivered at Denver and
other places. He denounced the pres*
of the country for slandering and vHi-
fying him for what he termed his hon-
estyjn ntlling a spade a spade and a
thief a thief in the United States Sen
ate. He said if a gold hug was nomi
nated at Chicago, fSouth Carolina and
Arkansas would walk out of the con
vention and seek relief elsewhere. He
asked all his audience who agreed with
him on that proposition to hold up their
hands,- and instantly at least nine-
tenths of bis hearer* complied with the
request.

Mr. James Bender, oue of the oldest

Mr. Daniel Bodiford died of pneumo
nia on Sunday night at the home of ids
parents, Mr. and Mrs. D. W. Bqdiford,

years, lie was a consistent member of
the Baptist church. The bereaved pa

Mr. William Hutto, near Double
Ponds church, lost his barn, supply of
corn and fodder and buggy by tire on
Sunday, just after, dark. His stock
was saved with difficulty. Had the
lire broken out later his loss would
have been much heavier. He believes
it was the work of an incendiary, but
there is no known cause for so cruel an
act towards a good man.
The Sunday 1 School pid nlc at Ha-
.good s mill on last Friday was a great
success. Over two hundred children
and grown person* attended. All prep

Serpent* are often charmed by he-
man bclnga. but a anako that tarns the
table* and hypnotizes people Is a freak.
A rattlesnake, near tilmoua, a town In
Florida, recently performed this re
markable feat. This snake hypnotised
Mies Pauline Brown, and bad It uol
been for the timely arrival of her broth
er she would doubt leas bare lost her
life.
Miss Brown went for a short walk la
the Arid* to gather wild Aoners. She
did not return when expected and her
famtlv became anxious. Her brother
Arthur, armed with n shotgun, set out
In search of her.
After a time he saw the girl In tho
distance *tt:ing on the grass. Ha at
once noticed the curious manner In
which ahe seemed to be snaylng te and
| fro, ns If In time to music. He ap
proached'cautiously, and peering over
her shoulder, was Ailed with horror
-who* ho *ew tho head of a huge rCtflh-
anake waving from side to side direct
ly in front of her.
Arthur Brown moved cautiously te
one side, raised hi* gun and taking
careful aim shot off too hood of the rat-
Ueanaket At the aound of the explo
sion the girl shrieked and fell to the
ground unconscious.
Later ahe said site wandered through
the Helds picking flowers until, grow
ing tired, *be bad seated herself In
front of the clump of white flowera
which ahe Intended te gather.' She ad
mired their beauty and kept her eyea
fixed upon them until gradually she
began te feel an uncontrol able drowsi
ness creeping over her, aucb aa oue ex
perience* alter gazing fixedly at the
embera of a dying lire.
Presently, although conscloua that
the flower* were pure white, they be
gan to take on the color* of the rain
bow and loac their outline. From tbia
iridescent mas* at regular Interval* a
tongue of vivid flame darted forth that
almost blinded her w ith it* brilliancy.
She wa* |»osses*cd with a feeling of
horror and had a presenilmeht of evil,
yet was powerle** to use her voice or
move her limbs. How long she was
under this extraordinary influence ahe
had no idea. Nor was she conscious of
U* nature till, coming to herself after
the shock of the gunshot had thrown
her into a faint, she saw the dead snake.
The rat’fesnake proved tb lie a mon
ster of its kind. Putting the dismem
bered head onto the body, it measured
an even seven feet in length. The body
in its largest part was 18 Inches in cir
cumference. It had 16 rattles and a
button. Indicating that the serjient was
at least 17 years old.—New York Jour
