MAD DOGS NUMEROUS Hydrophobia Affected Ani- mals Being Dispatched Daily By Police. LIVES OF SCHOOL CHILDREN ARE ENDANGERED. Great Precautions Against Spread of Disease Should Be Taken By Citizens. Bemidji is threatened with a genuine hydrophobia epidemic. The local police during the past week have been kept unusually busy guarding against the. at- tacks of mad dogs upon people on the street and there has been at least a dozen dogs afflicted with the disease dispatched in the past seven days. Even at the present time it is hardly safe to walk the streets,especially where the canines are numerous. The lives of school children are endangered, and every precau- tion to guard against the spread of the disease should be taken. A number of attacks upon per- sons walking on the streets have been made during the past week, and some very narrow escapes are reported by the police, In spite of the fact that the police force has made every effort to prevent the spread of the dis- ease, it seems that hydrophbia has been communicated from one canine to another until the dis- ease has been generally spread throughout the city. The seriousness of the situa tion is not appreciated by a large number of the citizens of the city and as yet but few dogs-have been muzzled. It is to hoped that dog owners will provide muzzles for their canines in order to prevent the furtLer spread of the disease. The Colonel's Waterloo. Colonel John M. Fuller, of Honey Grove, Texas, nearly met his Waterloo, from liver and kid- ney trouble. Ina recent letter he says: “I was nearly dead of these complaints, and, although I tried my family doctor, he did me no good; so I got a 50c bottle of your great Electric Bitters, which' cured me. I consider them the best medicine on earth, and thank God who gave you the knowledge to make them.” Sold and guaranteed to cure dyspep- sia, biliousness and kidney dis- ease, by all druggists at 50c a bottle. New School House for Nymore. One of the propositions which will come up to be voted upon by the citizens of Nymore in the near futureis the issuance of bonds of the Nymore school dis- trict in the sum of $2,500 for the purpose of erecting a new educa- tional edifice for the Bemidji suburb. The number of pupils in attendance at the school has made it necessary to provide ad- ditional rooms for the accommo- dation of scholars and a special election for the purpose of voting bonds for the erection of a new building will be held in about two weeks.

H, Finch, an official of a Brooklyn coal company, has submitted to an operation for the removal of his tongue. About two- thirds was cut away, yet with the re- maining portion of the organ and the muscles of his throat he will be able, after a little practice, to speak intel- ligibly. The operation is the second of that nature performed here within & few months. Finch had been a heavy smoker for years and complained six months ago of an 1rritation near the base of his tongue. A cancerous growth appeared and spread so rapidly that when the operation was found necessary the tongue had become affected from tip to hase. The glands of the mouth were also congested and it became neces- sary to remove them. The tongue was first pressed to one side in order that the surgeons could get at the lingual arteries, severing and tying them and thus checking the flow of blood. The loss of blood was about six ounces and the operation lasted fifty-two minutes. ENEMY OF OIL TRUST DIES. George Rice, Standard’s Deadly Foe, Is Stricken. Asbury Park, N. J, March 2.— George Rice, persistent, implacable and life enduring enemy of the Standard Oil company, whose business, he al- leged, was ruined and whose health was undermined by the efforts of the trust to force him te the wall, died here during the day from pneumonia following an attack of the grip. Last December the final effort of Mr. Rice to secure reparation from the oil trust was thrown out of the- United States circuit court at Trenton. He never recovered from this blasting of his hopes. Mr. Rice was sixty-five years old. He was the author of the famous book, “Black Death,” clrcu- lated in the oil country freely years ago. which took the methods of the oil trust as a theme. He inspired the fight against the trust in Ohio and made public the story that a bribe of $500,000 had been offered by the Standard Oil company to stop the prosecution in that state.

I, John Mayberry, for fourteen years secretary of the company in Chicago, has been arrested under unusual conditions. Mr. Mayberry’s arrest followed a trip to Providence and an unsuccess- ful attempt to explain the condition of his books, which Mayberry admitted are jumbled. Mayberry was not arrested until his Teturn to Chicago and at his request he was allowed by Samuel G. Howe, home secretary of the company, to re- turn by way of Baltimore, while Mr. Howe came by another route. Mr. Mayberry and Howe reached Chicago simultaneously and Mayber- ry’s arrest immediately followed. MANY VARIETIES OF SKIN. Grafting Saves Workman From Appa- rently Fatal Accident. Morristown, N. J., March Z—With 700 pieces of skin grafted on his body and limbs William Hoppler of Bartley is likely to make a complete recov- ery from an accident which at that time, a year ago, was considered fatal. Hoppler, who was working in the machine shops, got caught in the ma- chinery. He was frightfully mangled, the skin and flesh being literally torn and ground off of his back and legs. Specialists in skin grafting were sum- moned. His back and legs were bare of skin and it required a very large amount of cuticle for the operation. This was furnished by his four brothers. For the first time in a year Hoppler is able to sit vp and it is thought to be only a question of a few months when he will be as well as ever. TWO TRAINMEN KILLED.

A short time after a por- tion of the Louisville fire department was put on board a special train and hurried to the scene of the wreck. There were two carloads of mules in one train. One carload was cre- mated, but several of the animals in the other car escaped. FERN UNDERGOING REPAIRS. Duluth Naval Militia Will Have Ship in About Sixty Days.

London, March 2—Answering a question in the house of commons Earl Percy, under secretary for foreign af- fairs, said he regretted that the Brit- ish representations at Washington re- garding the injurious effect on British trade of the reciprocity treaty be- tween the United States and Cuba had been fruitless, owing to the fact that the United States held the view that the most favored nation clause did not SWAMP LANDS; Gets Possession From Gov- ernment 0f 184,000 Acres Valued at $1,000,000.
