NORFOLK, Va, Sept. 20.-In the

60 years of age, died in commissions
from hydrophobia. Mrs. Sykes had
been housel;eeper for G. S. Bunting, a
vcll-known facnei back of Norfolk.
for two years, and while at his house
about the Isl Of August was bitten
on the little finger by dog.
The animal showed no signs of rabies,
but it was killed the next day. The
wound healed up and nothing more
was thought of it until last week,
when Mrs. Sykes complained Of not
feeling well. Thursday she showed
sigus Of madness, the sight of water
throwing her into convulsions. This
continued until yesterday, when she
became so violent that it was
decided that it would be dangerous to
leave her longer on the farm. Deputy -Shcr-
if Bob Bunting took the lady in buggy to
Jail, where she was attended By Dr. Truitt,
who pronounced her case one of hydrophobia
Mrs Sykes was given morphine to quiet her,
but even this had little effect. Death came

The treatment received by the citizens of
Alexandria from the Washington Southern
Railroad Company in relation to tac ilieuug
cfpassenger trains between this city and Wash
inston Is, putting it i'll its mildeSt terms. an
absolute outrage and stands out in bold relief
when compared with the manner the citizens
have dealt with the company. Every reason
able request which has been presented by tie
company to the City Council has been cheer
fully granted. Our police authorities have
been kecnly assiduous in protecting its pro-
perty. while. on the other hand, the
trains of the company daily block orr
streets. the smoke and gas discolor our houses
both inside and outside. and ruin our cloth
ing, furniture, &c. The putting Of the en-
gines and tanning and rafting of ears shakes
the plastcring from the walls and ceilings OF
our houses. The least the company should
do in return for the many favors they have
received from, and the great number Of in
conveniences suffered by our citizens, IS to
give quick and easy transit to the National
Capital Especially should the convenience
and comfort OF our people be consulted on o.
c:isions like the present one, when all would
like to 20 to Washington and see what is go
ing on and be able 10 return Is at other times.
If the company fails in this particular. the
city fathers should ascertain the extent ot
their authority in the premises and take such
action as the situation demands. {. J.
