Hydrophobia in Madison

Madison's mad dog scare Is not yet at
an end. A few weeks ago a mad dog
bit several other dogs which were in
consequence killed; also pig belonging
to Mr. Hall the butcher. A day or two
ago this latter animal showed such evil
dences of hydrophobia that it was also
put out of existence. One day last week
Charles Shepard, the colored man who
carries the mail, was sprung upon by a
ferocious dog while passing through a
piece of woods, but escaped.

STRIKERS BECOME VIOLENT.
Narrow Escape From BIoodshed at New
Britain.

A strike of Italians employed on the
water works at New Britain, Saturday,
almost resulted in bloodshed The men
demanded that comrade who was DIS
charged be taken back or they would
make trouble. They accordingly armed
themselves with clubs and threatened
the other laborers, who were at work
with vengeance unless they quit work
also. AT this point Foreman Allen pro-
duced a revolver and telling his men to
use their tools if necessary in defending
themselves, informed the strikers that
the first man who passed certain point
toward the place where the other men
were at work would be shot. This
frightened the Italians and they retired
to their shanty. They were soon paid
off and discharged by the foreman.

1t is much to be regretted that every
Kentuckian could not hear the late

that the City ofthe Falls and the mud
dy little town up the road lowered
their flags to halfmast.
We hear it said that our townsman
Lee A. Owen is candidate for rep

his announcement in the ROUNDA-

1t is reported that the city authori-
ties of Frankfort contemplate plac
ing license fee of fifty dollars upon

That Alliance man whose vote
made Gen. Palmer United States Sem

from the lips Of any politician for
