The President’s proclamation was
not given out until late Friday even

Executive Mansion, Washington,
D. C. June 30, 1898.—Whereas, the dis
trust and apprehension concerning
the financial situation which pervades
all business circles have already caused
great loss and damage to our mer

wheels of manufacture, bring distress
and privation to our farmers and with
hold from our working men the wage
of labor; and
Whereas, The present perilous con

of the government finds embodied in
unwise laws which must be executed
until repealed by Congress;

ports a very strange occurrence in
Floyd oounty.
George Smith, says the special, said
to be a very bad boy, living at Floyd
Springs, while in bathing Sunday felt
something cpii around hip leg which
he thought to be an eel,' but when he
attempted to remove it he found it to
be a large water moccasin whioh bit
him, oauslng blood to'run freely. The
snake died at once, but t|>e boy was
not in tho least affeoted. ■
It, is said this same boy was severely,
bitten by a largo rattlesnake iast sum'
mer, which had about' the same effect
on him that the bi to of a setting hen
would have on an ordinary person. It
is not known whether the’rattler died
or not, but it is the opinion among the
cltipen's of Floyd Springs now that it
did.
The truthfulness of the above is
vouched for by one of the best citizens
nf Floyd county, who has a curiosity
to know if there is anything peculiar
about the blood of the Smith family,
and suggests that Bill Arp make an
explanation.
