HYpROPHOBIA.

We have kept this subject before our
readers, for several weeks, not because we
are an alarmist, but because we
fully appreciated the danger which
threatened the people. Since our last
issue, three persons that we know Of,
have been ii ten by dogs. We hope that
none of the dogs were rabld.
A mad dog appear in Madison Dis
trict last Friday and bit number of dogs
along Stoney Greek and in the neighbor-
hood OF Columbia Furnace, All the dogs
that were known to have been bitten
have been killed or penned. The greatest
danger is to human life, but If great
caution is not exercised, there will be
great loss to stock. A dog that was rabid
permitted himself to be fondled by a
stranger, witholt exhibiting any sign of
rabies, aud in less than five minutes bit a
calf which became rabid in a few days.
The Board of Supervisors of this county
deserve the thanks of the entire people,
for their promptness in issuing an order
requiring all dogs to be confined. The
danger in the coantry is much greater
than In town for in the country there is
often very little chance to escape, for a
rabid dog is no respector of age or sex,
while in town persons can generally
dodge into house, and remain until all
danger is past Let it be generally under
stood that a dog can not run upon Il e
roads, or upon the lands of our farmers,
without losing his life, and in short
time, we will have staml lei out the dis
ease and all danger of loss to life or
property will be over. II we neglect
these precautions, the loss to life and
property cannot be estimated.
Edgar Kibler son of Mr.. Jas. A. Kiber,
about 10 years of age was bitten last
Friday by dog belonging TO Mr.. D. II.
Sheetz. The dog was not supposed to be
rabid. On Wednesday morning, the dog
was found dead in his kennel. having
died during the preceding night.
Mrs. Dill. Sine, while on her way from
Mr.. Milton Cam bells to her home, was
attacked by rabid dog, but succeeded in
making her escape without injury.
A law has been promptly passed by tie
Legislature authorizing the Board OF
SUI ervisors of Shenandoah county to
cause all dogs of said county to be Muz-
zled ana con fined, and If found running
at large thereafter to be killed.
