Lawrence Kelly , the Upper Broadway marble dealer , is retailing a chotctj snake story that should by all means bo contributed to the midsummer snake literature of the world. Kelly returned ycstcrd.iy from sev eral days' absence in the country , and part of the time ho was the guest of Mr. A. I ! . Gale. 11 fanner living three miles cast of Council Blurts. It was on the farm of the latter that the extraordinary occurrence which he re lates look place. Among the possessions of the Gale establishment are a twolve-ye.ir-oltl boy und a guiuo.i hen. The linn obeyed her maternal Instincts and constructed her ni'st in a very scquestured place on the farm , and the boy yielded to his natural instincts and found it without diniculty. When dis covered the nest contained twenty-four eggs. The boy visited the hen fre quently and encouraged her in her maternal ambition to transform the e''gs into twenty-four little , speckled , cunning guinea fowls. Ho kept her company more or less until the greater part of the period re quired for the marvelous transformation hau passed. One day last wrelc his mother had set him at work to effect another somewhat remarkable transformation by requiring him to operate the old-fashioned churn dasher. It was a tedious nnd hot job and when the gulnoa hen suddenly arose from hpr obscure quarters In tho' dense thicket und went sail ing away over the bar.i with tremendous clatter an 1 excitement , the boy obeyed the strongest instinct In nature , and abandoning the churn rushed out lo see what the matter was. At the nest he found a uullanake .six feet long and as big around as a stovepipe. The snake was appeasing his disappointment In falling to dlno olt the old hen by rapidly swallowing her eggs. Fourteen oC theoo had disappeared when the bov rushed up with a baseball bat that had been assisting him in his labors at the churn. He smote the serpent on the head sorely and slew him , and then dolefully counted the eggs that remained. When this was com pleted curiosity proicptnd him to Investigate the snake , and bringing Into requisition that portion of his anatomy known as a Jack knife ho cut the snake open and found the fouitcen eggs intact and uninjured. He care fully replaced them in the nest and dia.'ged nvvuy the dead body of the mouster. The hen "returned to her duties a-.ul during the dav the boy completed thu churning. Friday morning the boy was startled by seeing the hen salUng over the barn again and scruamlug In the Mime excited manner. Ho rushed to thoroscuo again with his faith ful ball club and found another serpent larger and hungrier than the other with a handful of tail feathers in his month. The bov doubted whether It was a new snake or the ghost of the ouo ho had slain , ami before ho ventured to tackle the possibility of a spook snake he rushed away to view the remains of the monster he hud dispatched a few davs uoforo. It was there and the boy conclude 1 It was the mate that tiad billeted itself on the guinea hen. When ho rushed back to the nest to dibpatch It the snake was in the act of swallowing its fifteenth egg. TUobiseball bat descended while the egg was still In the snake's mouth , and Its head and the egg wore both smashed. The boy started to hold an autopjy on the body ol the snake for the purpose ot recover ing the eggs , but discovered that ho had lost the inoit important part of his bointr , his Jack-knife. Before ho succeeded in recover ing it seine more kids came along with an in vitation to a ball game , and thu .snako and the guinea hen were forgotten. Yesterday morning tno lien completed her labors and brought around for the inspection of the boy seven darling little chicks , one from each of the eggs that wore left In the nest. Then It occurred to the boy what had become of thu other tlfteen eggs. About this tlmo Kelley came uround ana the boy Invited him to accompany him to the spot ho had transformed into a snake morgue. The body of the last snake was lying In the sun , very much thicker about the middle than It was the day before. Thu head was crushed , but the body of thu i > orpent seemed to be alive , and the boy , after explaining that "thu tall wouldn't die until sundown , " went to woric on the ruptllo with his Jack knifo. Kelley htood by and watched llui opera tion , and when the ucn i ut open the serpent ho was astonished to see fourteen little guinea fowls , In vaiious ata os of de velopment but all kicking and chirruping , roll out. "It Is a strange story to tell , " soys Kelley , "but It is the absolute truth. The heat ot thu sun and the snake's body had llnlshed hatchIng - Ing the eggs , and we took thu old guinea lien the entire product uf her industry , all but thu one that viib smashed In the snake's mouth.

Hon. .Tosopti Modlli , proprietor of' the Chicago cage Tribune says , editorially : The editor lui-l occasionally heard that a Dr. ICucloy , residing in Dwight , professed to euro urunltcnness by the use of some tluturo of gold ; but not having any faith in the v.iguo reports ho gave no hoed to them. Lii't winter , about Christmas , a Chicago friend casually told him of two or throe Chicago men hard drinkers who had been restored to sobriety nt O.vlght by Koo ley's "liold" treatment , an 1 on expressing doubu lie was advised to m.iko an Investigation and satisfy himself of the womlorful eftlcacy of the medicine. This the editor proceeded to do. And ho pub lished in the Tribune from tlmo to time the evidences concerning the i-pinody. In order to bo fully satisfied ho soluctrd several inveterate drunUnrds , the most boneless nnd dosueratc dipjoiimniaus lie was able to lind , iniJ sent them to Dwight for tri'iitinvnt ut his own otponso as experi mental test cases. When these poor slaves of alcoholic appetite were speedily restored to sobriety , the terrible thirst for rum crndi- ciilod , and came u.iclt cured men , ho cc.isud to bn a doubting Thomas and opened the col umns of the Tribune trccly toothers who also had been cured to relate their personal ox- porionro over their own signatures. IIo had long regarded alcoholism In the nature of a dUunsc and was confirmed in that oolnion by conversations with eminent physicians who bad studied tne subject closely. IIo looked upon drunkenness us a more terri ble unlit-lion of the human race than con sumption , because the latter limits its fatal .stroke to the victim alone , whereas the former mor scatters ruin , misery , disgrace , crime and death all around It. Whoever bv his it-iunce can deliver the , dipsomaniac of the evil spirit which possesses him is entitled to the credit of pin'forinliig > nnvnr-t akin to n mir acle. The editor of the Tribune is glad ho has contributed to the diffusion of a knowl edge of the bichloride of cold remedy since the beginning of this ynar , for In that brief time several thousand incbriatos who visited Dwlghl almost hopclcssi have been restored to tlielr families nnd friends emancipated fiom their thralUlom and cured of their tcr- rlblo disease. i 1'eoplo lese the art ot lilushlir. ; as they ' -row nldui. or olsit lliu'r fuei-a would bu const ml y dyed led ut the lecolleutlon of their youthful follies.
