his favorite horse making strange noises, kicking

a veterinary surgeon in Bushwick avenue, who at
once pronounced 1t a case OF rabies. A dog had
been kept in the stable, but he showed no signs OF
Illness no wound was found on the horse, and the
only way In which hts maiady could be explained

been bitten by some strange rabid dog. An eforc
to drink water brought on an excess OF the symp-

uttered sounds somewhat resembling the yelp OF a
dog. He would kick, bite, plunge and exhibit all
the appearances OF an animal in q delirous frenzy
