LIVE TOPICS ABOUT TOWN.
"That's a queer story that comes
from the Dismal Swamp, about the
Ilzarda and snakes leaving," said an
observant man yesterday "and I can't
quite understand it. It is all folderol
about the muck boiling up and there
being danger of an upheaval of mud
and slime water, but the animal out
break must be true.
"I am very much concerned about
the emakes and lizzards. But I have
a theory of my own about that trek
of the varments. The State has gone
U' and there Is little, U any, hope
of It going wet soon, and the snakes
and the lizzards no longer have reason
to fear to creep and crawl lest some
unfortunate, over-loaded man see
them and have a cane of the jimmies.
Why should a snake or a Hazard be
afraid to creep and skulk around Char
lotte or Greensboro? This is the age
of soberness, when governors do hold
revivals and pray loud and long at the
tall end of meetings. All creeping,
crawling cattle can come to the light
without the fear of molestation. A
snake-seeing gentleman Is as rare here
now as a four-leaf clover and as un
popular and considered as dangerous
as a mad dog.
"Everybody Is on the water wagon.
No one need fear this move of Dismal
Swamp snakes; It means much to
them, and little to us. For cerKuries
those poor creatures have dwelt In that
slimy region but will now come out
and live like other animals."
"I lost out on the California deal,"
said qrl. Burk Asbury yesterday.
"The alclermenTncreased the sum from
lioo to $500 ah they will not trust
me with that much. I had already
secured passage on a gravel train. But
It Is all right. I will get to go to the
Dismal Swamp, and that being near
Norfolk suits me better."

Chill Tonic drives out malaria and
