FIGHT WITH 4 DOG.
The Results of Throwing Hot Water on Bloodhound to Punish Him.
 New Ha en Register

;. T.. Merwiu & Co. have for some tune past kept a large and powerful bloodhound m the office of theIr pack iug-house on Crescent street. The anI- maj has several timcs late y shown symp- toms of treacherous ferocity, w'ich the watChmin has taken upon himself to cure by throwing hot water from the of fee kettle upon hlm. Until two weeks ago this treatment had effectuslly CO., creed the brute into submission.
 But one night, when the watchman had attempted to punish him, the dog showed fight and drove the man behind the desk railing and kept him impris- oned for two hours. The watchman had a revolver in his pocket, but he was loath to shoot the animal because of the value set upon hum by the firm.
 Charles II. Nichols, the boOk-keeper, had always treated the dog kindly, and the brute had apparently none but the friendliest disposition toward him. les terday afternoon Mir. Nichols fooled with the dog little after o'clock and then went to work at his desk, and the dog fell asleep beside the stove. After hali an hour or SO Mr. Nichols had oc- casion to fill the kettle on the stove with water. Accidently be touched the dog with his foot. The dog looked up at him with hIs eyes half shut, but on see ing him with the kettle Ill his hands, he grovled viciOusly and sprung at the book k-keeper's throat NIT. Nichols dropped the kettle and grabbed the dog by the throat. The now excited beast bit at him right and left, intiIcting se- were wounds on his arms and shoulders. Mir. Nichols fought and defended him self as best be could, but the dog penned him up behind the stove, which was red hot. Although the men upstairs heard the noise they supposed the bloodhound was fighting with some other dog that had come into the office, and not until fully five minutes, when James Farrell, a customer of Merwin, came ID, did the true state of affairs appear to any body but Nr. Nichols. Mir. Farrell immedi- ately called upstairs for help, and when an employe brought in a cleaver, he snatched the weapon and struck the dog over the nose, cutting it open. The dog turned on him. Mir. Farrell struck at him again and again, cutting of one of the brute's legs. The dog still jumped at ms throat, and not until his skull was split open did the struggle cease. As soon as the dog had left NIT. Nichols that gentleman tainted with fright and exhaustion. Dr. Dibble was sent for. He brough; the young man to conscious ness and cauterized the wounds One of the arteries of the left arm had been severed, and it was only after much time that the flow of blood stopped A bite in the left wrist was an inch deep. and there were other bad bites. The doctor started to bring the young man to his home but before they had gone far Mir
 Nichols lost consciousness again and had 10 be carried back to the picking house and restoratives applIed again He was finally brought home between eight and nine last evening.
