Mad Dog Bit Five Boys.
Brookvlllo was thrown Into a fever of
excitement last Suturduy when the re
port circulated like wild-fire that there
was a mad dog in the town and had
bitten fivo boys. Burgess W. T. Darr
immediately Issued a proclamation to
tho effect that all dogs running at large
not muzzled and wearing a collar with
owners nnmo on, should bo shot.
Saturday forenoon a dog bit Leo Shaf
fer and Leon Jordon, two lads of Rich
ardsvillo, about seven miles from
Brookvlllo. The same dog ran on into
Urookvllle and bit three boys in that'
town boforo It was shot. Lee Shaffer,
aged four years, was bltton on tho nose,
and Loon Jordon was bitten on the
right hand. Monduy ovonlng R. W.
Shaffor, futher of Leo, nnd Mrs. Hurry
Jordon, mother of Loon, of Rieharda
vlllo, and W. J. Shaffor, of Brookvlllo,
brother of Lee Shaffor, took Leo And
Leon to tho Pasteur Institute at Balti
more, Md. Thoy also took tho dog's
brain with them and if the doctors of
tho Institute find that tho dog was mad,
the boys will bo put under trcatmont
Immediately, and the other three boys
at Brookville, who were bitten, will bo
taken to Baltimore for trcatmont.
Considering tho fact that we have
had mad dogs in our town reoontly, it
would bo wiso for Burgess Mitchell to
issuo a proclamation to muzzle all dogs
that are allowed to run at large In the
borough. Unless this Is done soma por
Bon may bo bitten with a mad dog. It
is too serious a matter to be dolayod.
