ALBINO RATTLESNAKE

CAUGHT NEAR WINK

---------------------------

   A most unusual type of rattle-

snake was found by A. C. Harding

Saturday morning on the Culberson

Lease, near Wink. The rattler, an

albino snake, possessing eight rat-

tlers, is of light yellow coloring with

a red tint. The rattles and eyes are

of yellow and red hues also.

   Mr. Harding came upon the snake

on the lease as he was at work. A

common rattler was coiled around

the albino, the two snakes having

their heads together. Mr. Harding

caught the albino by pinning its

head to the ground with a stick and

gripping the snake with his hands.
