Keeping Warm.

It is often SAL that residents Of
the extreme north do not feel the
cold SO keen'y as the records Of the
mercury would lead one to expect.
This fact, If it is a fact, may perhaps
be accounted for in more ways than
one, but the explanation offered By
Mr.. Julian Ralph in his book ''0nE
Canada's Frontier, seems~ to Be
adequate.
He says that the reason why the
people do not suffer more from the
low temperature IS because every
one puts on everything he owns,--a!
his stockings at once, all his f1annea
shirts and drawers, oil his coats on
top OF one another,-and when there
is nothing left, draws over all a blank.

and whatever pairs 81 gloves he hap

Alexandria, Mimi, Special, Dec. 2o.-An-
other mad dog scare occurred here to-day.
Since the mad dog was killed here three
weeks ago, several dogs have died with
the rabies. The village council passed an
ordinance that all dogs be muzzled or killed.
A great low was raised, in which proml-
nent citizens took part against the council
and ordinance. The marshal was ordered
to take no action IN the matter until to-mor-'
row. ~
To-day a mongrel bull dog snapped the
hand of Joe Arnold of Alexandria, badly
tearing 1t, then running rapidly away. The
dogs eyes were fixed and bloodshot, foamed
at the mouth and was known to be one OF
the dogs bitten by a rabid dog here three
weeks ago, which In turn had been bitten
last August by u dog from Willard, sup
posed to have the rabies. The next victim
was Mr.. Frick, of the Minneapolis Journal,
bitten in the hand. He then tore the cloak
off a little girl in a vain effort to catch her
hand. Meanwhile he had bitten some
horses tied on the streets.
By this time several persons had started
In pursuit of the dog, when 1t was stghted
running in among some teams and wagons,
where v. X. Niman was talking with an.
other man. Van Niman was bitten in the
fleshy part of the back, the dog swapping at
his companion, VINO escaped ny oouSluS
suddenly. The dog was soon after killed,
but those bitten are In an agony of mind.
The fact Of the dog being mat at this time
Of the year is accounted for by the poison
ing being transmitted from one dog to an
other since last summer The council Is
severely censured by one faction for not en-
forcing it's ordinance, while another faction
uphold them for their caution.
Excitement raised to a high pitch by the
Nelson accident, in which seven men were
killed, is increased until many are frantic,
and ladies and children dare hardly leave
the house. 1t Is not known late this even
ing what action the village council will
take in the matter.
A dispatch received from Alexandria,
some hours later than the above, states
that the dog shot there to-day was not the
mad dog, but q similar one. A dispatch
from Garfield says a dog answering his
description was shot there after biting
three men, names not learned.
