SAYS “I AIN’T HURTED.” Animal Shot by Policeman When Frightened Crowds Persist It Is Mad. When Mrs. Mat!ida Funke started for market from her home, No, &1 Eighth avenue, shortly after 1 o'clock to-day, she took her pretty little four- year-old daughter Florence with her. ‘The child toddled on ahead and was out fn the sireet while Mrs. Funke was still in the hallway. Suddenly the mother heard the little one scream and cry out “Mad dog!" Mrs. Funke rushed out on the side- walk and there saw Florence on her back being worried by the dog, while @ small crowd of excited early morning marketers and children on thelr way to school were yelling at a distance, plain- ly afraid to go to the little girl's as- sistance. But the mother didn't pause. She heid a parasol and with it she beat the animal over the head until tt relaxed {ts grip on Florence's Funke, frantic with fear and solding the screaming child in her arms, got no aid from by-standers and ehe ran to the nearest drug store on the corner. Crowds In Panic. The cry of “Mad dog!" had thrown the work-bound crowds on Eighth ay- enue into a smail panic by that time, and Mrs. Funke met Policeman John O'Neil on the run to the scene. ‘A mad dog bit my chiki!” him. “Take her right into the drug store,” he said. “I'll find the dog and then 1'll come back.” The dog, a sinall black and white mongre!, had disappeared from view, but several school children told the po- liceman {t was under the fruit stand, haying completely routed the proprietor ff that small establishment.

He had run several blocks and when he saw the little girl he grabbed her right away, and knocked her down.” The crowd was so persistent In de- claring that the dog was mad that O'Brien ‘ook it into Fifty-third street and shot it. Its body lay in the street for about helf an hour and was then taken to the Health Department to have the head examined for symptoms ef hydrophobia. Little Florence, a very pretty, little blue-eyed girl, stopped crying in the drug store and was braver than her mother, who was frightened out of her wits. The dog had bitten the child several times and the wounds were cauterized at once. Braver Than Mother. “I ain't afraid,’ the little girl. “Don't cry, mamma. I'll go to thehos: pital if you want ime to. But L ain't hurted much.” But she was taken to Roosevelt Hos- pital and the wounds given a complete treatment. Mrs, she will not stop with that, nowever, and expects to give the little one the Pasteur treatment. Policeman O'Neill learned that the dog had been hanging around H.
