Wisconsin Farmer Obliged to De 0lIsSD Oweltng Tmat Harsored Too Many Rattlers. Terrified and discouraged by the presence of numerous rattlesnakes, Muns Helgerson, a farmer, who lived with his family in an out of the way place in the town of Seneca, Wis., has | torn down his new residence, erected, two years ago, and moved back into his oid home, half a mile away. The new house had hardly been com- pleted in the spring of the year when the presence of rattlers was noticed, and as fast as found they were dis- | patched.

One evéning recently, as the family were retiring for the n¢ght, the mother found a large snake lying on the bed. On another occasion in mi idday, while she was rocking tke baby to sleep, the house cat gave an alarm, and a snake with 16 rattles, coiled up ready to strike, lay under the woman's chair. They were in the cellar daily, and could be heard climbing between the walls and on the ceiling overhead. Last summer the family could stand it no longer, and as soon as spring opened moved to the old home on the other side of the farm, but returned in the fall. A rattlesnake den this spring was found in a sort of cave under the house, and although hundreds of rep- Occasionally a taining jat $40,115 the when rewarded the He was unable to reply or to learn her but \ shock and placed the dime in a gilded frame. tiles have been killed around the door yard they seemed to be as numerous as ever, and Mr. Helgerson decided to demolish the dwelling and rebuild near the site of | th e old house. GIRLS” FIGET A DUEL. They Met in the Boils and Fought with Stilettos Until One Was Mor- tally Wounded, According to the Paris correspond- ent of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat ballet girl abrielle Fisson, known on ge as Nana, fought a regular duel with her rival, Victorine Giot, who calls herself La Marquise. Both girls were in love with th me man, but this time it wasn’t a case of revenue, for Leon Bournon, though a society man, has only an income of 500 francs per month. All the girls worship him for his shape and his mustache. The two women met on one of the boule- vards and addressed each other in about the same words: “Thou lovest Leopold’s “THOU LOVEST LEON.” Leon. I love himalso. He can belong only to one of us. Hence, we must fight.” After the theater Nana sent a male friend to La Marquise go arrange As La Marquise had her seconds ready, they quickly came to an understanding. Meeting place—a corner in the Bois, where Count Boni and other hot-heads usually exploit their “affairs.” Time—six pext morn- ing. Weapons—stilettos. Dress—naked to the waist, save silk corset cover or linen shift. No corsets. The duel came off as provided and lasted 90 sec- onds by the watch. It ended when La | Marquise stumbled to the ground, with a jagged wound in her left breast. At the same moment mounted poli agents appeared on the scene. The manager of the Folies, where the girls are engaged, had given the informa- tion. Nana allowed herself to be hustled off into a carriage, but the weapon was forced from her hand only after a str le. Even then she begged that the blood of her enemy might be wiped off on her handkerchief as a souvenir. La Marquise will die. As the duel was arranged with all due formalities, seconds, physicians, etc. Nana will probably get off with a few months. “Never mind,” she says; “when I come out I will have Leon.” HONESTY IS REWARDED.

She left the bag a seat in a South Side elevated The woman who lost the GAVE HIM A DIME. tained $118 in cash, poe ae mort- gages amounting to $40,000 The man who found it was Charles A. Stuck- rath, a guard on the Union loop at Madison street and Fifth avenue. At five o’clock in the afternoon Stuckrath, passing through the car, espied the portemonnaie and picked it up.. When he saw what was in it he notified the officials of the road. About six o'clock the owner of the lost property entered the general of- fices of the Union loop in the Fisher building and excitedly told of her She was referred to Stuckrath and hurried to his station. “I think it may be yours, madam,” said the guard when she had de- scribed her loss, “but you must first identify it.” “It is mine! Oh, I’m so glad!” she said when she had proved ownership. Then she took a tight grip of the bag, calmly opened it and carefully selecting a dime from within its folds gave the coin to the guard. TRIED TO STARVE SNAKE. loss. Bat It Crawled from Its Prison, Hale and Hearty, After a Lapse of 1S Months, “The man whotries to starve a snake to death is in a bad w who has had some experience in dea ing with reptiles, “and I happen to know what I am talking about, because of a little thing that happened to mea number of years ago, There is really no telling how long a snake can go without food. It is estimated that a horse can live 25 days without solid food. A horse will live on water for that length of time. Bears can live six months without food. They generally live through the winter months by sucking their paw. Of course, they \ —S a A LIVELY SNAKE CORPSE. have some food on hand, and they slip out to get what they can, but the main sustenance of the bear is the accum- ulated flesh of the summer. But lam inclined to believe that the snake can hold the record when it comes to doing without food. I had an experience a few years ago which convinced me of this fact. I caught a rattlesnake in my henhouse in the southeasterm part of Arkansas, and happened to catch him so that he could not get out. There was a good-sized rat hole in the place, and he darted into this as a last resort. I stopped the hole so the snake could not get out, and for the pur- pose of starving the reptile to death. I never thought anything more about the snake until more than 18 months after that, when I had cceasion to make some repairs about the place. ry to do some excavat- I was simply startled to find a short distance below the surface the snake I had sought to starve to death. He was a little lank, and was not very active. But he wa till alive. I felt sorry for the reptilian, and would not kill him, allowing him to craw! away. nce that time I have been convinced that a snake could do without food for a considerable length of time, and the claim that they can go 21 months does not startle me at all.” It was nece ing.
