An ice man jumped from | his cart and made several attempts to kill the | dog, but failing was glad to beat nasty re- 1 treat Affairs began to look serious until James Mnahan, brave and stalwart black | smith in the employ of Beach G Laden, started in pursuit of the animal and striking ! the dog in the head with stone killed it in stantlv.
 Before the excitement that had been stirred up by this incident had subsided the report was started that Henry Spittler, son of the brewer, had been seriously bitten by the l large and fefocious bloodhound that has for ! several years been tied up outside the brew | cry on South Front street, bowling from | morning till night and tugging fercely at his ! chain in effort to get loose. It seems that young MT. Spittler was bitten while attempt ! ing to release the dog which had entangled | itself in it's rope during some of it's frantic gyrations. As the dog was not mad it is not | thought that young Spittlers injuries will result fatally Many citizens have repeatedly ! expressed fears that the dog would some day work itself loose, and, running amuck \ through the streets, create fearful havoc. | The dog is much fercer than the average circus tiger and would only allow it's keeper ! to approach within reach of it's chain.
 | About 4:45 o'clock yesterday afternoon much excitement was again aroused by the fact that medium sized shepherd dog, be- longing to Horace Baldwin of WolcOtt street, had severely bitten Mamie Dematty, the twelve-year old daughter of A. Dematty, the shoe dealer. The little girl was going down East Grand street, when the dog bounded from his owners wagon, which was passing at the time, and bit her in the limb, bring ing his teeth together and inficting wound several inches long, which bled profusely. MT. Dematty obtained some cauterizlng mix ture from Hillhouse, the druggist, and ap- piled it at once. He was very indignant that the dog should have been allowed out with out a muzzle, and will probably prosecute the owner.

 Frankie Granniss, the ten-year-old son of Smith Granniss, the grocer, had most won derful escape from serious accident yester- day afternoon. His father had just driven lp to the front of the store with business wagon, intending to go to Savln Rock. Frankie attempted to get into the wagon, bat his foot slipped and he fell beneath the wheel. At the same moment the horse be- gan to back up and the wheel rolled nearly over the lad, but in such manner that the bulk of the weight fell upon his thigh in stead of his stomach and he was extricated with no worse result than 8 considerable soreness.
