A MAD DOG SCARE
Centre Hall Keeps In the Swim With
Bensation,
Last Bunday morning the town was
treated to a scare with the report that
a mad dog was loose and was running
wild through the streets, frothing at
the mouth and had bitten several dogs
in the town,
The dog, a hound, came down
Church street, and got into a fight
with Jerry Miller's dog. Those who
saw the scrap say the dog was froth-
ing heavily ands making one or two
snaps at Jerry's dog started on down
street. He was traced out to Mike
Condo's, and there was lost,
At Michael’s and Arney's above
town, he was sald to have bitten their
dogs, but whether he had gotinto a le-
gitimate scrap or had the rabies is not
known. The sensation had died out
during the day. Jerry Miller took the
precaution to muzzle his dog and
everything was moving along nicely
until about six o'clock when his dog-
ship was seen coming through town
again on his way back, evidently
