DYING FOR HIS MAS

A SHEPHERD DCo’s ENCOUNTER WITH A
RATTLESNAKE.
“My nf.me is Thomas WHman,
and 1 live in Philadelphia, where
,ny son Harry is i ptomiueu/ bus
-1 mess man. Thirty-one years ago
I mai-iieu, In Great Barrington
Mass-, as jiretty a girl as that vtl
liage (.famous for its pretty girls)
ever sheltered. She had been
well brought up, but had no for
tune. I had #1,500 which I had
made by running a sawmill. \Ye
were young and had «.ne world be
fore us, aud «e concluded to go
West. Going West in those day
didn't mean, as it setms to now
going beyond the Mississippi. Go
ing into ‘York (State was going
Rest tber. I had a cousin in Cat
taiaugus, a little village on the
Erie Railway, 30 miles east o
Dunkirk, aud we concluded to go
there.
It was late in August when we
reached Cattaraugus. My cousin
gave us a hearty welcome, and 1
set about looking for a spot to
build. Ce/taraugus is A curious
sort of a place. The viliiage i s
surrounned by hills, and the won
der to me is that it dosen’t slide
down iuio the washbowl-like vat
ley on the side of which it is built.
A little creek ruus through the
viliiage, and a mile to the wist
finds itself in a deep, narrow val
ley, with almost perpendicular
sides, 100 feet high. This valley
is called Skinner Hollow, aud is
one of lie moai picturesque spats
j oil the Eiie Road. I went down
in:o the Lolloxv prospecting. The
! sides, where they wete not too
sleep, were covered with a heavy
growth of firbt-cliss pine, and for
miles around the hills were thick
with the same timber. I *w
here was money in a sawmill right
down in diat hollow, and I bunt
one on the stream, which I could
see was a good-sized creek mobt
of the year. It is <ne of the bran
ches of Cattaraugus Creek, which
etnplies into Lake Erie 30 miles
west of Buffalo.
‘ I built my mill there, and
close to it a lit le hou.i», so close)
i.. fact, that the two joined, 1
took Katie, that is my wife, down
tlmre, and we began housekeeping
That was well into the winter, and
I began logging at once. I hired
a gang of men to help me, raised
money by contracting my lumber
ahead, ami started in. We cut
logs on the Dill J close to the mill
rigged up slides, and ran them
down to the logway.
1 tell you it was music to me
when the saw ripped into the first

log and a clean cu* slab dropped
away from the teeth. We Lad
a little jollification. Thai was the
first log ever cu* in Skinner Hol
low, and people drove miles to see
it.
“Business was good. There
wis lots of snow which made it
easy work getting logs to the mill
and drawing the lumber to the
viliiage, besides giving me ail
the water T xxanied. In fact wa
ter was running over the tail of
my flume every hour from the
lime 1 turned i' into the race till
the middle of July. Then a dry
spell came on. and I had to shut
down for two or three hours every
day to lei my race till up.
“But I didn't mind that. I had
had a tip top season and had made
money. I had logs enough at my
door to keep me busy for a year
and I knew where there were plen
ty more when those ran o-it. And,
besides, I had two *o look afier in
stead of one. You wouldn’t think
if you’d see Harry, with all his re
fined vvays and education, '.hat the
first music he ever heard was a
“aw tea»'iug through a pine knot.
Butit’B 80. He was a pioneer's
son and knocked around a sawmill
till he was into his teens. Well,
when busiuness was slow I work
ed around the house, fixing up
things here and there for Katie,
so as to make her more comfort
able. Sb. coaldn’t have been
mere contented. (She used to
tliiuk that sawmill was just, about
the pleasantest place in the coun
try- Hour after hour she’d stay
out there with me, and we’d keep
up the eonversatien wnile'lie log
was running back and stop when
it went up to Ihe saw. Dear me!
Dear me! Why, I can see her as
she used to look in those days in
that little sawmill just as plaimy
as if I stood there with her to day
She used to jump on the log and
ride up pretty close to the 3aw
and thu-n. just as I would get
seated and jump io drag her away
off sued go.
“Nobodv was ever happier than
ne wete, and we have never been
as happy since, though wave
been pretty happy and are yet.”
The yellow sunlight tl uttered
into the room where the two sa/
and the wine looked like blood
as the dancing rays shone through
it. The old man was lost in hun
py reverie.and the young man ven
1 tilled to remind him that there
was a snake story piomised.
True," said the old man, sfart
: iug, “I’m just coining to that. I
i los my self thinking of those old
; days. There was snakes, and we
| had killed them. I aitlers used
: to come out on die ledges of locks
I and lav in the hot sun. One or
two hud come around tne mill,and
' I had shot one in cur door yard.
But we thought nothing of thut.
i People living in the woods or in
1 wild places gei use.-l to things that
| would fi 1 them with hoiror in a
j settled country. We expected to
' find snakes, and as long as they
kept their distance or gave us a
J chance too shoot them when they
| got too near we didn’t mind
j them.
As I told you, I fixed up these
i things around the house during
1 slack time. One of the hi’B of
I furniture 1 knocked together was
a bedstead. It was more like a
broad lounge than a beds'ead. it
had neither head nor foo hoard
One end was raised a little line a
t ouch, and that was the head. We
had some bearskins and blankets
to sleep on, and more blankets to
cover us. It was a big improve
ment on the floor where we had
been seeping, and after a hard
day’s work handling logs I used

a big rain, and for a fortnight 1

Then it got dry again. One after

Hour after hour the rain ccme

was la*e in October ami we
kept a fire burning on “n the
hearth nights, more lor tlie baby’s

and stood out near the middle of
the room. We had an English

The baby was lying between ns.
\s I oppeneil my eyes a dark ob
ject glided from off tbe baby, and
jusi /hen the knot burst into
flames and flooded the room wi/h
light. A rattlesnake, fully five

between my wife and myself where
it had been stretched out piesum

doubt by some movement 1 liad
made in waking,had thrown itself
into ac3l on the bed at the b: -

seemed to drift entirelj out of all

this lasted. Then my senses
came back to me. and 1 felt that
from the reaction I would proba

How I ever managed to keep my
body rigid I don’t know, but by
an awful effort I did. I knew
that to stir was death, perhaps for
myself, perhaps for my boy, per

agony—for my wife. Outside I
could hear the lain dripping from
the eaves, and I could de ed the
sound of wa'er running to waste

“Are yon really deaf and dumb?
This whs tbe question address
ed by a Times reporter yesterday
to a dwarfish looking negro boy,
who was leutiiug against a brick
wall on Market sireet. He is
small thick set and coal black. He
lias large, wide, open eyes, but his
features have * lie dull stolid look
so commonly seen in muies. As
the reporter spoke, noticed tha*
the colored boy was eyeing him
very carefully, and when lie finish
ed the boy opened his note book
ami wrote in u scrawling baud :
“ Fes.”
“Can you teb, by the move
uitnts of tny lips what I am say.
mg !”
He nodded affirmatively.
••Who will testify that yon are
deaf and dumb ?”
He turned to a gentleman from
Boyce (Station, who explained to
the repoiter that tbe colored boy
was named Henry Bell; his age
23: he was born at Cave Spring,
Ga., and could never bear nor
speak. For several years he has
been employed by Capt Taylor, at
Boyce Station, aud he kuows
positively that he is a genuine
mute.
Wow for the si range part of the
story .
The rt porter placed lbs finger
tips very lightly on /lie boy’s
shoulder. Ho wore a heavy coat,
and the touch was so light that
the heavy folds were next depress
ed. The bov turned /ds head so
lie could not bee die teporter, and
the latter said almost n a whisper
“Do yon know what I am my
irg now ?
Henry wiote in his book, -Yes ’
“H«w old are you and where
wtre you born ? ’ tbe reporter
again whispered, Fetry’s head
still being turned.
He wb te, “My nan *■ s Henry
I) .I wa binat C. x Springs,
Ga, mui am tw nty dine years
old. I know anything you say by
the feeling in tny shoulder.” 1
long conversation was thus car
ried on, aud the boy unders'ood
every word.
Dr Holsclaw, who witnessed the
test, also conversed with the boy
in ihe same manner, and explains
his strange sense as follows: “As
all miles, his remaining senses, es
peciully that of touch, are very
hcu'c. When you speak, the v
bration of your vocal cords are
transmitted to jour mucular tistn
es aud when you place your lin
gers on his shoulder the vibration ß
are transmitted to him through
the 'ipe. His sense of fee'ing is
so scute this vibratiau acts on his
shoulder just as sound waves act
on the drum of the ear and he vir
t.tally hears through his shoulder
