lecturer held that there was no epidemic
Of hydrophObia proven In New York or

as Lysophobia, and that these,
were attributable to tue agitation Of the

Ing sensation. All officers entrusted
with the preservation OF the public peace
and health should be strictly taught that
the only way to discover rabies Is by the

persons who supposed that they had the
disease had recovered on learning that
the dogs which bit them were alive and

statement by the production OF four dogs
that had been operated on. Into two Of
these dogs The lecturer had introduced
the portion Of o calls brsin, in another an

a portion OF the brains OF the man who
had died Of hydrophobia, while under

The brains ola Iull pup that had been

The other physicians present were ss.

for instance, had not the same symptoms
as had the dogs here exhibited. The
doctors agreed that some oil the symptoms

these extras were mostly the same as the
price that prevailed last year, but were
merely introduced into the scale, and that
while there was q slight advance asked it

LONDON, KY, June 1.-THE devil ID
again to pay in the mountains, this time
In Perry county. The cause iB business
rivalry between the two merchant princes
Of HRzzard, the county aeat Of Perry, b.
+. French and J. o. Everson. Some weeks
ago 1t was stated In the Louisville 7Imst
that French had been killed by Bob May
al Mt. Sterling, but investigation proved
the report false. May was clerk In
FrenCh's store, and the proprietor was ao.
Cused OF intimacy with the employe's
wife. May was after French, hence the
report, though be did not bag his game.
This was last winter or in the early spring.
In the meantime French was getting the
lions share Of the mountain trade, and
Everson employed May In order 10 pick a
quarrel with French. The ruse succeeded,
and each merchant rallied hia followers
and opened war, which has been imni
nent for some time.
Three weeks ago the armed followers Of
Everson met FrenCh's wagons aB they were
returning from this point, and broke open
all bis boxes in search OF arms. French
has been afraid to leave his house, as
Everson was said to have armed men
patroling the town with orders 10 shoot
French on sight. French kept close, but
ordered supply Of Winchester rifles
shipped to this point. Last Saturday night
seven OF the Eyerson faction left llaEEatd,
and a few hours later Sllas Gerhatdt, q
friend OF French, was Rssasslnated six
miles from town. This was the tlBt blood
shed, but to-day French and one Of his
clan arrived here and Get out Tor the scene
Of hOstilities this evening carrying the
WinChesters. II is supposed they will
meet and arm their followers between
here and Hazard, after which they will
march on The enemy, filling the air with
music and the mountains with gore. Both
leaders are wealthy, influential and game,
and II iB predicted that this vendetta will
be one Of the most desperate In the record
Of mountain feuds. Hazard Is between
S5 and 100 miles from this point, the near.

results can not be communicated To Tor
