THE DUDE HAD GRIT.

BUT IT WAS A CLOSE CALL FOR THE SCIENTIFIC GENTLEMAN,

He Picked Up a Frozen Rattler, Which Thawed Out as He Carried It In the . Hot August Sun—Florida Snake Sharps ‘Astounded at the Deed..

‘I was once on agunning trip during tho month of August in the hammocks along the lower St. Johnsriver. Icams to a hotel on the river bank that was keeping open for the little business brought to it by tho river traffic. Back of the hotel was a fringe of pines, and beyond the pines was a reach of barren eountry covered with a growth of blue palmetto and gallberry. "“Among the persons staying as the hotel were two young men whose interest in the region centered in those things which pertained tc natural history.. Both were well dressed. Their ‘hands were white and smcoth. In town they might have been taken for bank ‘tellers. One morning, before the sun ‘had taken the chill out of the air, one of these guests, in a pair of rather genteel top boots, wandered for a considerable distance through the low palmetto ‘scrub. In his path he found a rattlesnake twice as long as the orange wood stick with which he wallked,

“‘The chill of the night air was still in the marrow of the reptile, and it was an easy matter for the young naturalist to clutch the snake just back of his jaws and hold him in a firm grasp with the thimb and circling forefinger of the right hand. Carefully lifting the body of the snake with the left hand the naturalist started for the hotel with his greatly valued prize, carrying his orange wood cane under his left arm.

*‘There is nothing else that so warms the cockles of a rattlesnake’s .heart as the vertical rays of the sun, and before the young naturalist had made half the journeyto the hotel, the captive snake had managed, unobserved, to twist his tail about his captor’s thigh. Thus anchored, he gave an ablebodied pull, which was the naturalist’s first intimation that the snake was putting off his sluggishness. With bis left hand the man was about to unwind the coil from his thigh, but he found that if he let go the spake at its middle the muscle of the reptile would be too mmuch for the right hand grasp at its throat, which was the only safeguard against a stroke from its deadly fangs. So he tightened his grasp upon the neck and quickened his pace toward the hotel. :

“‘The sun mounted toward the zenith and his rays became warmer. ' They gave strength and quickness to the captive reptile. Instead of a steady draw from the tightening coil around the man’s thigh came a series of angry writhings which severely tested the strength in the bands and arms unused to endurance. With each convulsion a change in the tint reflected from the monster’s scales ran like a thrill from its head to its tail, and then came the warning rattle that nobody has to hear a second time in order that he may know its meaning. The flag on the cupola of the hotel hung limp in the hazy distance. The orange wood stick had fallen from beneath the arm of the young mnaturalist. A nunibness was taking possession of the muscles in his arms and syrists. He knew what that meant. Meanwhile thediamond marked reptile was warming up for the struggle. His eyes from pits of molten lead had become deep set diamonds. His angry writhings were fearful to see. He was venom incarnate.

‘Tt was looking exceedingly serious, nos to say desperate, for the youurg naturalist. Cheerfully would he have put aside his enthusiasm in the cause of gcience and cast the reptile from him, but that he could not do. The rattler’s tail was coiled tightly about his leg, and if the man had loosed his hold upon the neck and middle of the reptile its fangs would have” made their deadly mark upon him while yet the coil was unbroken. His life depended upon his reaching the hotel before the Strength in hisrarms gave out, and how much strength he had left he knew not, for the numbness in them' had driven ouf the sense of feeling. Again he quickened his pace. . : *'lt must have seemed an endless journey to the young naturalist as he hurried along, his eyes fixed upon the writhing monster, except when they were raised for an instant to glance at the flag hanging above the hotel: but at last he was within the grounds. His friend rushed forward from the little. group on the veranda, but turned and ran back when he saw the look on-the young naturalist’s face. In a moment he appeared with a strong cord and a caue, which he had caught up in the hallway. While he was tying a slip noose in the cord neither of the men spoke, but. it was éasy to see that both. knew there was no time to waste.

‘‘As the noose was slipped over the reptile’s head and tightened by means of the cane a convulsion stronger than any that had preceded it drew together the benumbed hands which held the writhing creature, and they yielded to the force that drew them toward the coil, which now twice encircled the man’s thigh. ' ‘ ‘l've got him,’ said the man who held the noose. , ‘* ‘Well, kindly untwist his tail. My hands are a trifle tired,’ said the other. ‘‘This service was done guickly, aud the two young naturalists went to their rooms with their captive, » ‘“Among those who had stood speechless while these things were going on was Rattlesnake Bob, a local snake expert from’ up the creek’ As the young men disappeared he said, without shutting his mouth: . : - *“ ‘Waal, I'll be —— if them dudes hain’t got grit!’ : ‘“ ‘Yes,” said one of the guests. ‘They’re catching snakes for the Smithsonian institution to experiment with.’ ”’ —New York Sun. :

HE LOST THE GIRL.

But Got a Satisfactory - Dig at His Rival Before ife Died. - : : . He and wer father wore great friends. As only fcur persons figure in this story it is unnecessary to mention names. He had a rival for her affections, and her father could never understand why she preferred the rival to him. One dayi when he sat on the porch-chatting with her father she called him into the parlor and told him frankly that she had promised to marry his rival. He did not plead or beg He kissed her hand with a sort of reverence, and then returned to his seat on the porch and re- | newed the conversation with her father. In those few moments everything seemed to have changed for him., The sun did not shine as brightly; the birds did not sing as they did before. Even the grass and trees seemed sear and dead. He had expected what he had just heard, but that did not seem to abate the shock. He was distrait and moody. Her father saw this and asked him the cause. He blurted out the whole miserable truth.. Her father continued to polish his glasses carefully and then said: *Wimmen folks is mighty onsartin critters.’’ Her father said nothing more, but nothiug would change her mind. ? Gradually it came to be generally known that he had been rejected, and that his rival was the fortunate wooer. ' They, he and his rival, were alumni of the same college. He was down for a speech at the alumni dinner. A month before he had attended her wedding. No one ever heard him complain,though all knew how he suffered. He was looked upon as the orator of his class, and a great speech was expected. When he arcse, a sinister glitter could be seen in his eye. He began to speak slowly. He took as his text ‘‘Acquired Tastes.’’ ‘He spoko as length. Finally he said: I called upen a dear friend’ some time ago who had just had a daunghter married. He felt his logs very keenly, I tried to console him, telling him that while ‘he had lost a daughter he had gained a son. He said slowly to me: “ ‘Maybo I will come to like him after awhile—like I do my cigar, but the first few puffs are making me mighty sick.’ ”’ It was in Kentucky. Not a word was said then, but just as the sun peeped over the hills the next day two dark forms were seen silhouetted against the sky. There were two flashes, a combined, subdued report-—and one fell, never to rise again. It was he.—New York Tribune. : : : ;

FATALITY OF A NAME

A STRANGE INCIDENT WHICH SUGGESTS MENTAL TELEPATHY.

It Is Vouched For by a Member of Chica- . go’s Heaith Department—A “Pipe Story” Which Has Broken Down the Rules and Made Its Way Into Print.

Writers of fiction have no monopoly of the strange or supernatural. - There are things taking place every day in Chicago which are as devoid of rational explanation as the mysterious coinings of the novelist’s brain. Newspaper men hear of them, but in the rush for cold, hard facts, demanded both by city editors and newspaper readers, the ‘‘pipe stories,”’ as queer and unexplainable happenings are called in journalistic circles, are at a discount. Were it not for this the following incident, which can be verified by the word of several reputable men, would long ago have received the space and attention it merits instead of being consigned to the wastebasket as the ‘‘pipe dream’’ of an opium devotee:

One cold wintry -night not so long ago Dr. L. T. Potter, now connected with the Chicago health department, and a number of his companions were sitting in the office of the Oakland hotel, at Drexel and Oakwood boulevards,s when a stranger of diffident manner entered. His clothes and jewelry marked him a person of means, but' he seemed downhearted and worried, and when he asked permission of the clerk to sit in the office awhile, Dr. Potter and his companions at once sized him up as a | man who had been out on a spree, was without ready cash to ‘pay for a bed, and took this means of getting refuge from the winter’s blasts. The stranger, who was young and intelligent, grew uncomfortable under the ill disguised scrutiny of the crowd and finally said: - ““Gentlemen, I would like to explain my presence here and why I sit up in the office in preference to taking a bed. In the first place, let me assure you it is not a matter of money,’’ drawing out a goodly sized roll of bills.” ‘“For some years my father, who is a resident of New York, has had trouble with his family and has been a wanderer. He was at one time worth eonsiderable money, but this has been lost, and a number of letters which I have of late received from him show me he is despondent. This afternoon I got a letter from him, dated in Detroit, saying he would arrive in Chicago tonight, take a room-at this hotel and end his life by turning on the gas. He added that in the event of the gas failing he had a pistol with him, with which he would send a bullet through his brain. Father had no idea I yould get this letter to‘day, as I have been out of town, and it was only an unexpected case of sickness } in my family which brought me back. T am sitting up here to intercept him when he comes in and prevent the suicide which he contemplates. Fortunate1y I have means enough for hoth and can relieve his anxiety in this respect.’’

Dr. Potter and his friends were at once interested. They congratulated the stranger on his good luck in having received his father’s letter in time and tendered their services in any way in which they might be desired. Two or .three times an effort was made: to find out the man’s name, but he parried the | questions on‘the ground that, as his father’s plans would be frustrated, he did not care to have his identity disclosed. “You may, however, call me Melchior, as it is awkward to address a man without a name, .and Melchior is as good as anything, barring the right one..’ The evening sped along, and about midnight the stranger, being assured no more trains would arrive before morning, took his departure, saying he thought his father must have been detained or perhaps have happily changed his mind. ~ The occurrence was so much out of the ordinary that Dr. Potter and his friends ‘ sat up for an hour or more talking it over. At 1 o’clock they went to bed, and a few minutes later the night clerk retired, leaving an assistant who had not heard the story in charge of the office. About 1.80 in came an old gentleman with a traveling bag in hand, who registered as ‘‘George C. Melchior,’”’ and was assigned to a room. In the morning the chambermaid reported a strong smell of gas on that floor. The door of the newcomer’s room was broken in, and he was found dead, with a pistol in his right hand and a bullet wound in his head. He had turned on the gas and then shot himself. By this time everybody in the house had heard the story and of the young man’s visit the night before, and all were positive that the old gentleman who had killed himself was his father. The afternoon papers had a report of the suicide and before night the young man was back at the house asking to see the body. : ““I don’t understand how father could have registered as ‘Melchior,” for it is not his name, and I only used it last night to eonceal our own,’’ the stranger said. ‘‘lt must have been a case of mental telepathy.*’ ] On reaching the room where the body lay a much more peculiar episode occurred. The moment the young man saw the face of the corpse he said: ““That’s not father. I never saw this man before. He is not known to me.’’ | Nor was he. A search of the dead - man’s effects brought out papers proving his identity as George C. Melchior ‘and giving reasons for suicide somewhat similar to those advanced by the youug stranger when he was telling his story the night before. Within a week Dr. Potter heard from the young man, who " said his father was alive and well, having recovered from his despondency and abandoned his intention of taking his -life, but the mystery of how a man giving the same name should appear at the hotel selected by the stranger’s father, on the same night, and comimit suicide in the same manner outlined by him has never been explained. —Chicago Tribune. ; ' . s A Profitable Inyestment, 1f you are suffering with a cough, cold or any throat or lung difficulty the only sure wg,vy to cure 1t is to take Otto’s Cure. e know that 1t will stop a cough quicker than any known remedy.
