Donald, the fOurtecn-ycar-Old daughter OF
Mr.. Mcdonald. living at No. 1911 Lambert
street. is afflicted with strange disease,
which makes her bark like a dog. She is
well developed for her age, weighing 40
pounds, and quite attractye-loOking.
Without any warning a spasm SEXES her,
her features draw up Into horrible grim.
ace, and short, hoarse sound. not unlike
the distant baying Of dog, comes from the
throat. The spasm and barking last only
a few seconds, but the effect Is horrible
and unearthly. The father says that when
TWO years old she was taken with
corebro.spinal meningitis, then she had
y. Nilus's dance, typhoid-feyer, rheu-
maiism. and brain trouble. The doctors
h3d declared that the malades were the re.
suit OF IN epidemic. that she has spotted
brain disease, and thai q portion OF the
brain has decayed. Her father adds th.t
the spasns and barking do not cause her
any pain. She laughs at them and does not
seem 10 care. Her spirits are good. she en-
iovs life, end eats more THIN her father
does. II Is deemed remarkable that she
should have grown 10 such a size in spite
Of her nervous disorders. She Is at pres

n slight hope OF curing her. She l. the
wonder Of the PEOPLE who live In the neigh

say in a note TO the Dispatch:
Sin the days Of INV youth. In Norfolk. l
was Familiarity associated with DIR. Turk,
who was naval surgeon on the United
States ship OF which Rev. Walter Cotton
(of literary fame) was chaplain, by whom
he was introduced to my acquaintance.
They both visited at our dwelling. and as
DR.. Turk was an entertaining talker, In
giving me an outline OF this strange
and wonderful story, nv friend, Mr.. Col
ten, said ! must by all means ask the
Doctor TO relate TO me his interesting mar
ratiyc.
"This he (Dr. Turk promised to do ut
some suitable opportunity, but the presence
Of company during his visits, l regret to
say. always prevented the wished-for re-
ctal. Indeed. the solemnity Of the sub
jeet, in his opinion. demanded a grave and
serious audience, without which the old
genten an seemed unwilling to enter upon
q theme so startling.
"since then many years have passed
away, and with them DR.. Turk and nearly
all his contemporaries, az well as the re-
membrance Of his marvellous narrative.
You will therefore Judge OF my surprise
short time ago TO receive from my bro
Their clipping from the Washington Post
containing the untold tale, now brought
to light by the editor Of the London Bel

AVENGING her KITTENS.
An Old Cat Kills snake. in n Scientific
Manner.


Manner.
A Hawley PENN telegram SAYS: An.
dew Bellas, car-runner on the Pennsv-
vania Coal Company gravity railroad.
lives at Plane No. 1, on the line OF that
road. One day last week a couple OF small
kittens were missing from his house. and
he started out 10 look for them. rs they
were great pets with his family. As he was
gong through his back yard he saw the
mother OF the kittens stealing along through
the grass. Dellas stopped, aud, looking
ahead Of the cat, saw large pilot snake
lying in the grass about six feet distant.
There was no doubling the fact that the
cat was stealing on the snake. and il was
equally plain that the snake knew It, and
was ready for the attack. At first Bclas
thought he would xiii the snake nj once,
hut he changed his mind and watched 10
see what the result u the impending light
would be.
The cat crept within 4 foot Of the snake.
which was ready to strike at the proper
time. The cat stopped, and raising her
left fore paw cautiously held II on. toward
the pilot. Like fash the hitter struck at
the paw. but the cat was quicker sill. and
bringing her right Jaw into play dealt the
snake blow on the side Of the head tha
Knocked il back foot or more. The rep
tile. evidently greatly surprised ald mad
GrnCd by the eats attick, returned TO the
fight. Again the cat presented her left
fore paw, and again the pilot struck Vi
cously at IL, only 10 again miss and to re-
cciye the violent righthander alongside
the head. This was repeated four times,
when the snake. weakened and thoroughly
di>piritcd. turned and tried 10 drag Itself
away. Instantly the cat Sprlug upon the
rctFcating reptile, and with two or three
strokes OF her sharp claws tore it to pieces.
She carried the remains OF the dead snake
10 q distant part OF the yard. where she
dug q hole and buried it.
RcllaS went on TO rocky hill not far
aWav. thinking the kittens mi ht be there.
He saw a creyicc in the rocks which looked
like q snug hiding place for them, and he
thrust his hand into il. Instantly he felt
sharp. singing pain IN his iingr. and il
quickly shot up MS arm to the shoulder. \
rattlesnako had sunk is iangs into his fore
finger, and retained its hold with such e.
tCnaciiy that BellaS could scarcely shake it
OF. He killed the snake and hurried home.
An old woman named Barley sucked the
wound, while Belas drank plentlfuIly OF
whiskcy. After sucking the bite thorough
iy Mrs. Bailey applied table salt to it, This
and the whisHey was kept mp, and after
twenty-lour hours BellaS, who had passed
into dclirium, was restored to conscious
ness. At he end OF three days he was pro-
nounccd ont Of danger.
The old cat has killed several snakes
since the disappearance OF her kittens. She
never hunted snakes before. From that
circumstance it is believed that her kittens
were eaten by snakes. and that she knows
it and is avcnging their death by killing
snakes.

discretion given them ty the deed they
made the following compromises
l. r. \. Ioung-Mr. Young's account
proved by the books OF the bank TO be
overdrawn SS.O7L07. lie disputed the
correctness Of the account, and claimed
that at the most his indebtedness vas les
than $4,000. Mr.. Young has no property
OF any Kind out OF which this amount
could have been made. even il we had sued
him and should have obtained iudg nent
for the whole OF his supposed indebtedness.
We succeeded in getting IRON him a
proposition TO give the joint notes OF
himself and wife for $1,000, at one. two.
three. and four years. interest added. Sc

Burwell, for the Jul amount OF the balance

which sum he assigned for value. The
said G.. Il. Eanes was endorser Oh Sundry
notes Of another person. amounting in the
aggregate 10 Sj,lll, which notes fell due
and were protested after said assignment.
We purchased the claim for Il 800 cash,

Mir. Eanes had conveyed all his property OF
every description after having made q set
tement upon his wife in consideration OF
her REIMBURSEMENT OF her contingent right

cure the amount Of his indebtedness to the
State Of Virginia as a surety for the bank.
The State had also obtained against him a
judgment as surety upon bond OF the
bank TO the amount OF. more than Sl3j, 600.
which was largely more than he was worth.
This settlement Is deemed advantageous to
the bank.
