4 POLICEMAN'S LIFE STRUGGLE
Frightful HydrOphObia Cases in Louis
VilIes

Louisville Fost and News, Monday.
1t is some time since a case OF hydropho-
bia has occurred in this city, but to-day
we have to chronicle two peculiarly horrible
cases of this most dreadful disease. The
persons afflicted are Preston Forman, ne
gro plastcrer, living on Sixteenth and Har-
ney streets in California, and his little son,
a boy OF seven or eight years. Several
weeks ago the child was bitten by dog,
but its parents paid no attention to the mat
ter and the wound speedily healed. Three
days ago the little fellow began to exhibit
strange symptoms Of sickness, which guve
his parents much alarm. Since that time
he has constantly grown much worse, until
now he is suffering from what is thought to
be genuine case of kydrophobia. The
child froths at the mouth, snaps and snarls
like dog. at times is seized with agonizing
spasms and exhibits other symptoms OF ra-
bies.
The child's father, Preston Forman, has a
family consisting of wife and four chill
dren. He is a plasterer by trade, and is a
large, powerful negro, weighing about 200
pounds. He has been attending to his child
during its sickness and it is supposed that
the boy must have bitten him, or else it is
impossible to account for his singular and
sudden affliction.
Up to to-day, Foreman has shown no
symptoms Of madness. This morning, he
complained of feeling badly, and soon be-
gan to act strangely. 1t was not long be-
fore he began TO rave like a maniac, and to
show signs of rabies. He began to froth at
the mouth, howl and snap like dog, and
tried to bite whoever came near him.
About o'clock this morning he went out
upon the street, where his appearance ere
ated perfect panic. He was terribly vio-
lent, and threatened every one whom he
saw. Fortunately he did not succeed in Sc
riously iniuring anybody. One negro man
he struck on the head and knocked down,
but the man was not badly hurt. People
living in the neighbOrhood were terribly
scared at the violent behavior of the madam.
\ policeman was sought for, and Officer
J. p. McWhorter soon arrived on the
scene.
He gave chase to the maniac, who ran
away from him, but caught him at the cor
ner of Sixteenth and Prentice. Now began
a terrific struggle, for the negro resisted with
almost superhuman strength The police
man called others to his assistance, and with
the help of four negroes Foreman was final
" secured and bound about the hands and
feet. A wagon was procured and mailman
placed within. Officer McWhOrter, accom-
panied by one negro man, started off with
him to Jail.
Even tied as he was the negro continued
TO resist lie would bite at those holding
him and strive to burst his bonds, until
sometimes it would seem as if he would get
the hes: of his eaptors
Policeman McWhOrter is one Of the larg-
est and strongest men on the force, but For
man was even larger than he, an,l besides,
had all the added strength whieh man has
in the violence OF madness. The policeman
had to seize the negro by the heck: to:pro.
vent being bitten. Every TIME she lateFi

would make an effort to snap, McWhorter
would have to choke him with both hands
before he would desist
All this time Forman was foanling at the
mouth and presenting a most horrible ap-
pearancc lie would scream and yell, then
bark and snarl like a dog. He kept calling
out, Il didn't do it didn't dc it," and
would beseech his captors to "stop smother
ing him."
In this terrible plight the poor fellow was
brought to the Jail about IL o'clock this
morning. Here another hard struggle en-
sued in getting him into the cell. McWhor-
ter called Officer McAuIiffe to his assistance,
as well as the turnkey and several bystand-
ers. Forman was forced to walk into Jail
with FIVE or six men holding him. In going
through a narrow passage in the hall where
there was not room for the whole party to
walk, the mailman with a desperate effort,
although his hands were still fastened, broke
away from all those who held him except
policeman McWhorter, who still retained
his grip. Upon the latter the maniac turn
ed and attacked him violently. at was, .
said McWhorter in relating the occurrenc ,
"the closest place l ever was in" Before
he could be prevented Forman made viO-
lent attempt to bite the officer, and his teeth
just grazed the latters wrist, but fortunately
without breaking the skin Forman was
secured again and finally locked up in a
strong cell. The policeman who had this
long and terrible tussle with him, constantly
in dread of the terrible consequences if he
should be bitten, was almost exhausted
when the struggle was over.

Mr.. EDITOR :-Everthing in this COM

think that the most fastidious could find
anything to say about Us now. Crops are
looking fine, and if the people do not spend
too much time fishing there will be much
made this year. But Mr.. Editor there are
two men in this neighborhood that will go
fishing and to ICONS if the pillow stands. Now
say nothing about this for anu not given
to making remarks about people, and when
| do say anything, do not want every body
to know it. Business is lively at ToOns'
do not know how much candy the head

Letter From a Little School Girl.

POcAHoSTAs, Tenn. May Is, 1880.
Mr.. EDTTOR:-I will make my first at.
tempt to write a short missive for your pa.
per.
Prof. Leath is building up College al
Pocahontas. 1t is such nice place for a
college, the surroundings are so beautiful
and we have such nice places to while away
our moments of recreation on Saturday. Il
is but short distance to the sui phur spring
where many people resort in summer tc
drink its refreshing water. 1t is not far tc
the river, where we can amuse ourselve,
with the hook and line.
The Memphis & Charleston railroad run.
through our village, besides think the
day is not far off when the boats will heavC
in sight.
am glad that we are having a college
built up so close home. It is the very thing
we need. There is so many intelligent look
ing youths here who would fill high Office,
in society if they had an education. 1 dom
see why We can't have college close home
as to go off to school where it costs so much
more.
am going to school at the Lcath college
and think that L am making some progress
in my studIes,I study Latin, Algebra, Mus
ic, Physical Geography, History, English
Grammar, Arithmetic, and Composition,
Rhetoric. You know if do justice to these
studies will have little time to play. Miss
Mamie Smith of Bolivar Is my music teach
er. She is succeeding well with her class
and it is constantly increasing in number
Miss Mamie is encouraged, and she deserves
encouragement. She has such a sweet and
amiable disposition that We all love her
DIR. Rucker has moved here from Missis-
sippi, for the purpose of educating his chill,
dren. He has three children in school.
Mr.. Leath sent to Memphis and bought a
piano and We had a musical entertainment
the first night after it arrived. Our music
teacher made sweet music for us and accom-
panied some pieces with splendid singing
The farmers are beginning to take more
interest in education, besides they are i'm
proving in agriculture. The school is in
creasing fast think Our Prof is the right
man to build up college. He keeps such
good order, and is SO kind and instructive
that he has won the affections of his studens
md the moral lessons that he teaches nc
doubt will be of great value to his students
Very respectfully,
MISS SToT.
