A FEW THINGS IT WILL BE WELL
TO REMEMBER NOW.
Information from High Authority on tlio
••Mud Dog" tjuebtion-Popular Notions
on the Subject Are All Wrong-No"
Danger from Hydrophobia.
The most eminent physicians claim
that there lias never been an authentic
case of hydrophobia. Great pains have
been taken by many prominent in medi
cine to secure proofs of a case of genuine
hydrophobia, but each one has failed.
Pasteur's treatment, oven iiis close
friends reveal, has killed more subjects
than have died of this supposed disease
during liis operations. It is tho. convic
tion, based on long and careful investi
gation, of our foremost physicians that
hydrophobia is never caused by tho bite
of a dog, and that it is simply a hysteri
cal nervous disease caused by an un
founded dread, and stimulated by a mor
bid imagination. However, there is;
such a disease as rallies, and it is well to
take proper caution and remember these ;
facts:
First, there are no "dog days," popu- j
larly known, because there is no time of
the year when dogs are specially liable!
to rabies. There are no more cases of
rabies in July and August than in De
cember and January; second, there are !
more than a million chances to one that i
any dog which is snpposed to lie mad is j
not mad at all: third, even if a person is
bitten by adogthat really is mad, tbedan
gcr of hydrophobia is very slight; fourth,
if bitten, keep cool, take a half-dozen va
por baths as frequently as you can; this
is tho Buisson cure, and it is in high fa
vor. All you need is to keep your nerve
and not allow your imagination to run
away with your sense. Just remember
that if you should happen to get hydro
phobia it will be the first authentic case
in tho medical history of this country.
And now to dispel a few popular no
tions about mad dogs. We glean these
from nn admirable communication in
Our Animal Friends by Mr. John P.
Haines, president of the American So
ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to
An Duals:
1. It is supposed that a mad dog
dreads water. It is not so. Tho mad
dog is very likely to plunge liis head to
the eyes in water, though he cannot
swallow it and laps it with difficulty.
2. 11 is supposed that a mud dog runs
about with evidences of intense excite
ments. It is not so. Thu mad dog
never runs about in agitation; ho never
gallops; lie Is always atone, usually in a
strange place, where lie jogs along slow
ly. If he is approached by dog or man
lie shows no sign of excitement, but
when the dog or man is near enough, lie
snaps and resumes his solitary trot.
3. If a dog barks, yelps, whines or
growls, that dog is not mad. Tho only
sound a uiad dog is ever known to emit
is a hoarse howl, and that but seldom.
Even blows will not extort an outcry
from a mad dog. Therefore, if any dog
under any circumstances, utters any
other sound than tiiat of a hoarse howl,
tiiat dog is not mad.
4. It is supposed that the mad dog
froths at tho mouth. It is not so. If a
dog's jaws are covered or decked with
white froth, tiiat dog is not mad. The
surest of all signs that a dog is mad is a
thick and ropy brown mucus cliuglhig to
his lips, which lie often tries vainly to
tear away with his paws or to wash
away with water.
5. If your own dog is bitten by any
other dog, watch him carefully. If ho is
infected by rabies, you will discover
signs of it possibly in from six to ton
days. Then he will ho restless, often
getting up only to lie down again,
changing liis position impatiently, turn
ing from side to side, and constantly
licking or scratching some particular
part of his head, limbs or body, lie
will be irritable and inclined to dash at
other animals, and ho will sometimes
snap at objects which ho imagines to he
near him. He will be excessively thirsty,
lapping water eagerly and often. Then
there will be glandular swellings about
his jaws and throat, and ho will vainly
endeavor to rid himself of a thick, ropy,
mucus discharge from Lis mouth and
throat. If he can, he will ' probably
stray away from home and trot slowly
and mournfully along tho highway or
across the country, meddling with
neither man nor beast, unless they ap
proach him, and then giving a single
snap. Tho only exception to this be
havior occurs in ferocious dogs which,
during the earlier stage of excitement,
may attack any living object in sight.
The I'oll ticul .Situation.
From the Wilkesburre Nowsdoaler.
Tho situation in politics up to this
time stands about as follows: For pro
thonotary, Paul Dasch, of Upper Le
high, is the only name mentioned. For
district attorney thero are two names
canvassed, S. S. Herring and Martin
Mulhall, botli of this city. For clerk of
the courts, several names are being con
sidered, namely, M. F. Corcoran, a
sturdy Bryan Democrat, of Duryea;
Patrick Finn, of Miner's Mills, one of
tho unfortunates of last year, and John
Shigo, an influential Slavonian, of Free
land. There may be others, but at this
writing their names have not come
FREE LAND, PA., MONDAY, JULY 19, 1897.
under our notices, but it is likely they
wiM develop as the canvass progresses.
At any rate the field is open for all
comers, and a stirring contest for the
various offices will stimulate a zeal and
enthusiasm in the party ranks through
out the county, and be the means of
bringing out a large vote.

The I!HC of Scliooln Dolinod.
In an opinion handed down by Judge
Fell on Friday the supreme court de
cided that public school directors have
not the right to permit the use of school
property for other than strictly school
purposes. The case was that of Bend
er vs. Streabieh etal, appealed from the
common pleas court of Lancaster county.
In his opinion Justice Fell says:
"The use of school buildings by the
community at large for public meetings
for the discussion of subjects of general
interest may lie said to be in the line of
their use for educational purposes, but
it is not the use intended by law. If the
school buildings may be used for meet
ings for the convenience, pleasure or in
struction of the general public, all other
school property may with equal propriety
be so used, and it would be but a step
further to apply a part of tho school
funds to the same use."
The question at issue was the right to
permit the school to be used for sec
tarian religious meetings. As many of
tho schools in township villages are
used for this purpose, the decision may
cause some inconvenience.
A Conflagration Averted.
Shortly after 9 o'clock Thursday even
ing a slight lire was discovered in the
Hrislin building, on Centre street, be
tween South and Main, which is occu
pied by Mike. Pasternak as a saloon.
Tho fire originated in one of the sleep
ing rooms upstairs, and was caused by
the explosion of a lamp which stood on
a small table. The llames consumed
the table and caught a lot of clothing
which hung on the wall.
For a while there was danger of a se
rious conflagration, but vigorous work
by the bucket brigade and the removal
of tho burning clothes saved the walls
from taking fire. One of Pasternak's
young children was sleeping in a crib in
tin! room, but was rescued immediately
on the discovery of tho blaze.
Tho firemen responded quickly to the
alarm which was rung, but their ser
vices were not needed.

"Terrible Pete" Wassil, who is to be
hanged next Thursday, made a confes
sion Saturday afternoon, stating that
Prank Sockalofski killed Kupersavag, of
whose murder Wassil was convicted.
Wassil's attorneys will leave today for
Uarrisburg to ask (Governor Hastings
for a respite until the confession can be
investigated. Wassil, says that his
brother-in-law, Sockalofski, fired the
fatal jishot through the window. He
says that the men had been quarreling
in a saloon. During the trouble Sock
alofski was beaten, and in rage he ran
homeand procured a revolver. He return
ed as the disturbance ceased and fired
tiie fatal shot.
Wassil denied all knowledge of the
crime at the time of the trial and pro
tested that he was in bed at his home.
He now says he told the other story to
save his brother-in-law, but does not
proposo to sacrifice his life for a crime
committed by another. Peter says that
the gang promised to liberate him if ho
would not toll on the culprit ami the un
successful attempt to effect his escape
lends color to his story.
Frank Sockalofski was arrested with
"Terrible Pete" at the time the crime
was committed and spent several months
In jail on a charge of being Peter's ac
complice in tho murder. When Wassil
was tried witnesses swore he was the
guilty party and tho commonwealth
made such a strong case against him
that the case against Sockalofski was
nolle prossed and he was liberated.
Sockalofski is in jail on a charge of
theft. 11c denies that ho shot Kuper
savage.

out by the New York Tribune Fresh Air

large crowd of people had assembled at

difficult for the local committee and tin?
ladies who accompanied tho children
from New York. They were taken in
charge by the parties whose names were
recently published in the TKIUUNK, very
few changes in tho list being made.
