Two dogs were killed yesterday and two more yes- terday. Owners of dogs should wateh them very closely these hot days and keep them off of the strects as much as vossible. While Dr. Irahont was passing down Twenty-fourth street this morning a large dog suffering from hydrobhobia rushed out and, grabbing hold “of the doctor’s little house dog, tore it 1o pieces before the huge whelp could be driven off. The big dog was mad and run the strects for some time before being killed. D. Gray had a pet dog and_cat that had played together for years. Yesterday morning he noticed them snapping at each other, and throwing water upon them, the both went into spasms, which_was o sure sign that they had gond mad. He had them both shot at once. There are so many children playing about the streets in South Omaha all the time that too much care cannot be taken to prevent these wad animals from doiug serious harm.

NEW YORK, June 27.—A special cable from Tripoli, Syria, gives the first full account of the sinking of the flagship Victoria. Tt is as follows: About 3 o'clock last Thursday after- noon the English fleet came in sight of Elmina. It was coming from the north- east and making dirvectly * the harbor, The five big ir perdown, Edinburg, Niloand were drawn up in full fron toria was in the center, the Camperdown on her left. When they were within five miles of shore Admiral Sir George Tryon rnaled to turn and form in double line. This meant that the Victoria and Camperdown were to go ahead a 1i tle and deseribo a turn—the Victoria turning to the left and the Camperdown to the right —~then they would advance side by side in the direction from which they lind come. The others would swing into double column. When the order was given the distance between the ships was less than two cable lengths. The execution of the order was ecasy but extremely difficult for the in and Camperdown. In turning their brows were to pass within a few fathoms of each other, even if the mov: ment was executed with the greatest precision. This movement is rarely made and is chiefly for the purpose of training the ship commanders to move expeditiously away from shoaling waters, ‘Whether because Admiral Markham of the Camperdown did not beliove that this movement was to be tried when the ships were so close together, or because he thought Admiral Teyon had mis- caleulated, he did not set about, but signaled that he did not understand. It Was a Victoria had not bogan to turn at she still held to the signal. Camperdown no longer hesitated also began to turn. The however, had been fatal. The had pearly turned and the Comperdown, swinging in around, bore down upon her, The discipline was perfect, Admiral Tryonand the officers setting the men an example. Asall the other vessels were moving to get in double line behind the two leaders they were bear- ing down upon the entangled ship and the catastrophe was unavoidable As s00n as she was struck the V began to forge straight for the shore under full steam. bout ten minutes after the blow the Victoria, having got something like two miles nearer shore from the scene of the collision, all at once leaned away over to the starboard and with a great roll and plunge, buried her bow beneath the calm surface of the sea, It was almost instantancous. There was no chance of escape. Those on deck were plunged immediately iuto the water, tal Delay. and the hesitated. The vessels Victoria other The once, as The ctoria Cut and Sealde A moment more and a new peril, more horrible, descended upon them. The great engines, deep in the heart of the hull and_inclosed in water tight com- partments, were still throbbing at full speed and the great stecl flanges of the twin screws were whirling up in the air. As the vessel sank.the screws came nearer and nearer to the surface and drifted into the midst of struggling human beings. The vessel sank slow and when the screws were low enough to begin to whirl in the water again, the suction had increased until there was a deepening vortex like a maclstrom. At the bot- tom of this maelstrom the screws wer revolving like circular knive: poor creatures battled in vain the suction. In & moment or the knives disappearcd and the vortex began to close up. The ship was be- neath the surface just as the whirl was shallowed alnost to the surfac Then there was a mull\ul thunder, the waters were steam burst from them. Again the shricks and screams burst swimme The boilers had exploded, the se had rushed into the furnace and the swimmers were beating waves of alding watel Thus, in less than ten minutes, death in its most awful form attacked the officers and crew of the Victoria—death by drowning, death by the knife-like screws and death by scalding water. With the first under plunge of the Victoria, all the boats were hauled aw from the other ships and came strainin over the calm sea to save the struggler These boats were soon picking up these fortunate ones who had got out of reach of the terrible vortex. Admiral stuck on the bridge and refused to leave 1t. Just before the Victoria made her under lunge he saw what was to happen and issued an order for every man to save himself, but the order never got beyond the bridge. A Friend Wishes to speak through the beneiicial results he has rec mud from a regular use of Ayer’s Pills He says: “I was feeling sick and tived and my stemach seemed all out of order, I tricd a number of remedies, but none seewed to give mo relief until T was in. duced to try the old reliable Ayer's Pills. I have taken only one box, but I feel like a new man, I think they are the most pleasant and easy to take of anything I ever used, being so fincly sugar-coated that even a child will taks them. I urge upon all who are in Need of a laxative to try Ayer's Pill Boothbay (Me.), Register. “Betweon the ages of five and fifteen, I was troubled with a kind of salts rheum, or eruption, chiefly confined to the legs, and especially to the bend of the knee above the calf. Here, running sores formed which would scab ov but would break immediately on mo ing the leg. My mother tried ever, thing she could-think of, but all was withont avail. Although a child, I read in the papers about the beneficial effects of Ayer's Pills, and persuaded wy moths er to let me try them. With no great faith in the result, she procured Ayer'sPills and I began to use them, and soon noticed an improvement. Encouraged by this, I kept on till I took two boxes, wlhen the sores disappeared and have never troubled we since.”—H.

Burlington Buildings a Model of Convenience Thero is not a village in the United States where the Wells & Richardson Company is not known. And the demand for their lactated food has been so widespread that it has led them to establish branches in for- eign countries, A large and prosper- ous business 1a done by their branch houso in Montreal. From their London branch lactated food is sent to all parts of the world, a lurgo trade being done in Southern Af- rica and 1n India, and s ustralian branch is locatec vdnoy, I W. From the ontral offfces in Burling- ton, Vt., thoy send their pure food al- most everywhe:o that the sun shines, to gladden the hearts of thoss blessed with children. 1t was Longfellow who said: Ye nre bettor than all ths ballads Thit ever wore su; For ye are liv And all the rest s And a visit to the big establishment in Burlington,where ns tho hot weathor appronches and infant troubles multinly very effort is made to supply the in- creased demand for lactated food, gives ono the impression that the employ and employed are in full sympathy with the parents, who are their customers. The working force of the company num - bers 200 men and girls saying nothin, of nearly 100 othe.s in outside employ ments whose servi ‘o constantly ve- auived. And theve is a singular air of contentedness about them. The friend- liest relations exist between the compy ny and the employes.

[t was nolonger ugo than 1885 that the company first became interested in the manufucturo of sugar of milk,which is the basis of the infant’s natural food. The company showed 1ts enterprise in locating its co-operating Jlishment for the making of this sugar in Illinois, where a sullicient supply of pure milk could best be found. Preceding the year 1885 sugar of milk had been made exclusively in Europe, and although many attempts had been made in this country to manufacture it from the whey of our cheeso fuctories, every at- tempt had met with disastrous failure, and much money had been lost. Unde- terred by other failures, however, i was determined, with the Prof. Sabin of the University of Ver- mont, Lo enter upon the trial of a new process. This proved very successful, and for several years large auantitios of this article have been manufactured. Urder the advice of oome of the best medical authorities in the country, the firm embarked in the manufacture of a food forinfunts and invalids, of which this pure American milk sugar should bo the basis; and again a professor in Vermont’s famous university became in- terested, and has from first to last had direct supervision of the food. This is called lactated food and has become invaluabie for the nutrition of 1ufunts and invalids. DR. MCCREW is the only SPECIALIST WHO TREATS ALL and DEBILITIES of MEN ONLY.
