taken to the Morgue, where 1t has not

burned SO badly that Identification will

the fire the discharge of fireworks
sounded as If hard-fought battle was
in progress, and for nearly two hours
was heard the rattle Of small musketry,
interspersed at frequent intervals with
the heavier reports of the larger pieces,
while sparks and an occasional rocket
would shoot from the windows. These
explosions created great consterna.
tion among the spectators. The cause

KANSAS CRY, Mo-, June 21.-Three
months ago John Sharpless was bitten
IN the face by pet dog, and tonight
Sharpless is 9 corpse from hyprophobia.
Three days ago Sharpless was noticed to
act strangely, and was i'll. He moped
about the house, and his brother believed
he was losing his mind. This morning
he was much worse and began to bark
like dog at intervals. BY noon he was
frothing at, theo mouth, swapping, snarl-
ing at every thing which came near him,
and II was by almost superhuman efforts
that his brother, at whose house he was,
prevented the mad man from biting him.
After dinner the police were called upon,
and between spells he was hauled to
the station house. There he became
20 frantic, foaming at the mouth,
growing and trying TO bite the officers
that great peecaution was necessary. He
wss hsnd-oufied and placed upon bed.
The police surgeon pronounced him in
the last stage Of hydrophobia. A vessel
OF water was placed near him, ard the
mans frantic efforts 10 get away from IL
were piuful. Sharpless lived until
eight O'Clock, suffering untold agony.
II was necessary to bind him to cot
Tor fear of his attack upon attendants.
II = the most pronounced case Of hydro
phobis ever seen here. The strangest
part Is the dog has shown no signs Of
rabies, but as precaution it was killed
this afternoon.

THE GREEN MIDor.
Something About the Great Wheat Dc.
stroycr.


INDIANAPOLIS, IND, June 22.-The
complaints about the destruction Of
wheat by strange insect are increas-
ing. They come chiefly from the Gen.
trail and eastern parts of the State, but
the ravages of the little bug have al
ready spread to Northern Indiana, and
the Secretary Of the State Board of Ag-
riculture regards the reports as
alarming The insect is what
is known among agriculturists
as the 'green midge," another
species of which is the "red midge."
The latter last appeared in this region
about fifteen years ago and did great
damage to the growing wheat. The
green midge," the little destroyer
which is now doing such alarming work,
has not been seen by farmers since 1865,
when 1t almost entirely destroyed the
wheat crop Of Indiana and the neighbor-
ing States. Millions of them appear in
field, settling upon the stalk, from
which they draw the sap, causing the
grain to shrivel before it is matured.

The Prohibition Defeat.

PHILADELPHIA, June 2O.-Complete
returns show that prohibition has been
beaten in Pennsylvania by something
more than 100000 majority. The suf.
frage amendment, which received o.
9Qo majority in Philadelphia, is beaten
BY more than 100000. It intended to
wipe out the payment Of poll tax as a
qualification of voter. The defeat of
the suffrage amendment has surprised
the politicians. Prohibition leaders
continue to threaten the Republican
party for allowing the amendment to be
beaten.
