Sensational POISONING O.

A sensational poisoning case came to light
in Denver recently and was reported in THE
BEE at the time. Some time ago Mrs. Jose
phine Barnaoy, wealthy widower from
Providence, IL. l., went there for her health.
Three weeks ago she received through the
postof1lce a bottle of liquor, marked "Old
Rye the postmark upon the package being
Boston. She put the flask away until last sun
day when, returning from a drive with Mr..
and Mrs. Il. $. Worrell and feeling somewhat
chilly she offered Mrs. Worroll a drink from
the flask and took one herself Shortly after
this both ladies were taken violently ill and
Mrs. Barnaby died an hour later. and it was
with the greatest effort that the physicians
succeeded IN saving Mrs. Worrelrs life. The
liquor was turned over to Prof. Sewell of the
state university, who declared that
there was sufficient arsenic in 1t to kill twenty
people. The body of the dead woman
would have been examined had it not already
been shipped to Providence in charge of DR..
Graves of that city, who was in Denver at
the time of her death. DR.. Graves is n very
intimate friend of Mrs. Barnaby, and his
name has been prominently connected with
hers in several business enterprises. 1t is
understood that the dead woman left the
doctor S5O,O 900 of her fortune of Sl5O,OO0.

farm there is little dog about the same age
and the two are devoted friends and constant
companions. There is slough not far away
from the house with several feet of water in
it, and the other day the little boy, accom-
panied by the dog, wandered off, and while
playing near the slough the boy fell in the
water and was unable TO regain the bank.
The faithful dog jumped in and dragged hi m
to the shore more dead than alive. AS the
dog is not very large he Yves unable to get
the boy entirely out of the water, but pulled
his head above the waters edge. In the
meantime the family had missed the chlld
and were searching for him, finding him at
last on the bank of thr slough almost stran-
gled with the water Mr., French says he

why a Dogs Nose Is Cold.


Everybody is aware that a dogs nose
is always cold, but very few people know
why, declares the st. Louis Globe-Demo-
crat. The cartilage composing the
outer surface of Il dogs nose is almost
destitute Of blood vessels, but plentifully
supplied with glands which cxude n
watery secretion that, by its evapora-
tion, keeps the nose below the normal
temperature. The dogs sense of smell
is located in the nerves within the nos
trils, and it is probable that these arc
kept in better condition by the low tenn
perature of the cartilaginous tip OF the
nose. The state of n dogs health is at
once indicated by his nose, for no dog
with a hot, dry nose can be healthy, and
one of the first signs of rabies is dryness
and heat or the nose, for these symp-
toms indicate fever, and fever is the be-
ginning of hydrophobia
