One of the first to gala currency is to the effect that the boys who attend the Howard public pub-lic school at Johnsbury, N. J., found a den of serpents tho other afternoon. It was a big hole in the ground, partly covered with h stono. They poked sticks into it and in ten minutes a large number of snakes came out. With sticks and stones they killed forty-sevou bluck snakes, five pilots and fourteen garters. Two of the black snakes were five feet long. |
