On Ilm return to the wheat field, and on lifting another shock uf wheat near where he had the tight with the snake, what was his horror at again finding him self fuuing the identical stmkeshlp, which, smarting, no doubt, under his wounds, ap peared more vicious than Imfore. Ludlow watched his opportunity, and again suc ceeded In getting a fork line clear through the adder’s head. An asaislant was culled, and While Ludlow’s fork tine Imd the snake fastened to the ground, the assistant pulled the reptile away from Die fork, lliiir splitting the head into equal pmia. The adder was then ground into llje dirt w ith it "boot-heel," strictly in accordance with a script mill injunction, and left for dead. On a third return to tin- vicinity of the scene last enacted, the same tenacious udder again uncovered from another shock of wheat, exhibiting ut the satin- time as much life as la-fore. With the continued efforts of all the hands the adder was then pound ed until I line was scarcely enough of it h ' to quiver. A few hours later Air.
