The citizens in the vicinity of Col.

startled by the appearance OF a dog
with hydrophebia last week. He
ran rampant through the neighbor-.
hood biting every dog he came in

sners Eleven other dogs bitten by
hiH were Immediately killed =
There also appeared another IN the
community Of Col. Thos. Hart, IN
istric: u. He bit quite a nan Der
of dogs, cows, and hogs We warn
the people in the county to keep a
strict Lockout lest these dogs hav e
bitten some which have not bee II
yet discovered. There are mere
dsgs in Harleman county than we
need, ana it wsuld be blessing to
eur people if a score more could be
killed than has been bitten.

The State Wheel has recently
published letters frsm this county,
in which our follow tswnsmaH and
di stinguished citizen, Col. r. n
BIitchell, is put forward as a gen-
tleman IN every respect worthy to
represent this county in the next
legislature. The Star endorses
very word SAID about his fitness.
A purey democrat eau nowhere be
found. He is a gentleman Of ex
ceptisnably fine judgment, stead
fast in his convictions, incorrupti-
bic in all his ways, and true to the
people. The lobby could no pur-
chase hIm; neither coald the pol Iii
clans boss him or bride him, neither
glittsring gold nor promises of sffice
could, in the least, induce him to
fsrsake the people and fall into line
With bsodIe politicians. He Is d
good man.

Speaker CarIisle's Right to his Seat
Confirmed.

AS was to have been expected the house
committee on elections decided not to re-
open the contested case OF Thoebe against
Carlisle. The Thoebe fattened out almost
entirely, and seems to have been almost
entirely engineered by disreputable law
yer named Sypher. In secret session OF the
committee, after hearing all the testimony,
the first motion put was to postpone
the further consideration of the case
which WIS rejected by a strict party vote
g to 6. Then motionwas made to re.
open the case. Mr.. Rowell (Rep.) asked to
be excused from voting, and Mr.. Cooper
(Rep.) voted with the Democrats SO
the motion was lost. Another motion
was made to declare Thoebe entitled
to his seat. and on this vote four Repub-
Hcan members were excused from voting,
the remainder voting with the Democrats
against the proposition. Then ca me the
final vote on the motion affirming Mr.
Carlisle's right to his seat. All OF the
Democrats voted in favor Of this PROPOSE
ton, and with them stood Cooper, Rowel
and Johnson Of Indiana. making the
affirmative vote -. Lyman, Houk
and Lodge, Republicans, were excused
so there was no negative. The
position taken by the Republicans who alb
stained from voting is that while they are
not convinced that Mr. Carlisle is not enti
tied to his seat it is proper for the COM
mittee to reopen the case and afford an
opportunity for the production OF any
new evidence that might throw light upon
the contest. Under the intructions of the
committee, Chairman Crisp will report to
the house IL resolution declaring Mr.. Car
Isle entitled to his seat.

The New Method Of Capital Pun
ishment,

New York Special: The report OF the
commission appointed by the legislature
in 1886 to report the most humane and
practical method known to modern science
OF carrying into effect the sentence OF
death in capital cases has been transmit
ted to the legislature. It recommends
killing the culprit by electricity. 1t states
numerous objections to execution by
hanging, shooting, guiilotining and the
garrote and says:
Thomas A. Edison writes that dynamo
electric machines, which employ intermit.
tent currents would be the most suit.
able apparatus. The passage OF the cur.
rent from these machines through the body,
even the slightest contact, causes instant
death.
The commiss ion recommends that cha ir
with a head and footrest should be used,
in which the condemned man could be
seated in a half-recining position. One
wire could be connected with head rest and
the other with the foot rest. which would
be metal plate. The electric current
could be supplied by electric light wires.
The commission recommends that the
date OF the execution be made uncertain
SO that the criminal may not know what
day he is to die; that the corpse go to the
doctors or to q nameless grave without
religious rites, and that the newspapers be
forbidden to describe the execution.
