Horrible Plight of a Man Who Arrived Today to Apply Capt. Fowler's Mad Stone—Re- sides at Eddyville. @ Mad Dog and Terrible Wounded—The Dog Finally Killed—It Bit Others, Also, Was Attacked b An old gentleman arrived inthe city this morning on the 11 o’elock accomodation in s most horrible plight. He was a mass of scabs and sores and clotted blood. He was R. T. Rowland, of Lyon 2county. He went straight to Robertson's drug store, accompanied by ® young man he sa‘d was his son-in-law, and there asked for a mad stone. He said he had been bitten by # mad dog. To a reporter he told his story Yesterday afternoon he was at home, ata farm place near Eddy- ville, Lyon county, when a yellow dog came along and sttacked’ him. He fought the savage canine off with all his might, but could do nothing with him, The old fellow is 78 years old, and before the animal could be driven off and killed, the aged victim had been literally chewed up all over the face, hands and arms, in addition to having several other wounds in vari- ous other places. His fingers were bitten almost off, and his face was lacerated in an al- most incredulous manner, as was bis arms. The beast was evidently mad, and was soon killed, but not until it had bitten almost innumerable other ani- qals, and had chewed one colored woman’s toe nearly off. It was then killed. The aged and infirm — brought here fortreatm Vi at once discerned that it would re- juire a long time to apply the mad stone to all the wounds, He sat around the drug store for several hours, with the flies swarm- ing allover him witb his bloody, bandaged hands and face, and curi- ous crowds around him constantly. It was the general opinion of all that he is in a dangerous condition, espe cially on account of his age. Mr. Rowland was apprised of the fatilitv of attempting to apply the mad stones, and at press time he and his son-in-law intended to return op the 4 o’clock train this afternoon. {im was 8 Races at Fair Grounds, Thursday, July 21, Friday, July 22.

GLEAVES & SONS AAARARARARARBAARABLUNN RELIABILITY is a quality some newspapers have lost sight of in these days of “yellow” journalism. They care little for truth and a great deal for temporary sensation. It is not so with THE CHICAGO RECORD, The success of THE RECORD rests upon its reliability, Wt prints the news—all the news—and tells the truth about it. It is the only American newspaper outside New York city that has its own exclusive dispatch boat service and its own staff correspondents and artists at the front in both hemispheres. It is the best illustrated daily newspaper in the world, Its war news service is unapproachably the best, Says the Urbana (Ill.)

Gigantic and Lively Creature That In- fests the State. Some parts of Florida are infested with an animal of extraordinary ch acter, which has about the same rela- tion to @ cockroach that a whale bears to a hornpout, remarks the Bos- ton Transcript. It is a gigantic but extremely lively creature, which sud- denly appears from almost anywhere and gues racing like a shot over any- thing that comes in its way. The strongest man will jump like a girl at the appearance of it. It seems to be rticularly abundant up at Lake-! land. Shortly after the arrival of troops at that place a New York jour- nalist of delicate sensibilities went up to Lakeland and found that he hac to stay all night. ly dint of much persuasion he obtained permission to put up at a local tavern, whose pro- prietress seemed io have a deeply grounded objection to entertaining any guests at all. She gave him « candle and he went upstairs. Present- ly he came rushing down, in his shirt < and trousers, bearing the candle, which had been extinguished by the rapidity of his flight. On his face was ‘ 4 an expression of terrible alarm. “See here!” he said, “there are cockroaches as big as rats running all | ., over my bed!” The landlady sighed deeply. “Why,” she said, presently, “you ain't afraid of them, are you? Why, they get into our table drawers and eat up our postage stamps on us as fast as we get “em!” That was all the newspaper man could get out of the landlady on the subject, Ife-had to go_back to hig Decrease in Patients. five years n Berlin h red time his nam to 1,600 in « ior hyger WHY BURN When you can get dry hickory stove wood ready for stove at same prices by telephoning No. 198?
