Did the Chickens Haye Hydrophobia:
New York SUM-

H1LIsDALE, n. J. Jan. 9.-One night
about three weeks ago dog entered the
hennery of Superintendent J. S. Drake
of the New Jersey and New York
Railroad and killed and injured a num-
Der of fowls. At the time Mr.. Drake
narrowly escaped being shot by
neichbor who was out looking for a
supposed robber and nistook the su-
perintendent for marander. Yesterday
Superintendent Drake witnessed re-
markable sequel to the adventure. Two
of the injured chickens had been placed
in tho barn and doctored until they
were able to 60 on duty as egg pro-
ducers, which duty they performed
faithfully. A great to do in the hen
merry yesterday attracted the attention
of the family, and the two hens were
found to be in a great state of commo-
tiop, running and flying about wildly,
gaping, and uttering sounds very pecu-
liar for a chicken. They finally ex-
pired, apparently in agony.
Nobody could account for the strange
sounds or the deaths until neighbor
pointed out froth in the mouths of the
dead fowls. Then it was concluded
that they had hydrophobia. Superin-
tendent Drake says be has no doubt OF
it.

From the Atlanta Constitution

COLUMBIA, S. c., Jan. SIN Edge
field county some time ago two negroes
became involved in a torchlight pro-
cession with deadly weapons, and at
the conclusion of the entertainment ono
of the combatarts had taken his de-
parture from this wicked world. A
trial justice was called upon to hold
an inquest. While making an exami-
nation of the body it was discovered
that the deceased had a pistol in his
hip pocket. When the acting coroner
espied the pistol he at once stopped the
proceedings and announced that he
could not conclude the inquest until
the negro had been tried for carrying
concealed weapons. No further evil
dence was necessary, and the Coroner
fined the deceased $50, after which the
inquest was continued to finish. The
most difficult problem connected with
the case was the manner in which the
fine should be collected from the dead
man. So far the State or the Justice o.
somebody is still minus $50.

Mr.. Dalzell-There was comblna-
ton of steel-rail makers (derisive laugh
ter on the Democratic side), but it fell
of its own weight. It's purpose was
not to maintain prices, for, as matter
of fact, prices of steel rails fell continu-
ously throughout its existence. And
the gentleman knows how many STEEL
rail concerns are to-day in the hands
of receivers.
Mr.. Johnson-Wcll, displaying at
bis desk q legal-looking document),
here is the proof of the existence of a
new trust, organized since the dissolu-
ton of the old one.
He then recited the petition Of the
receivers of the Sparrows Point, Nd,
Steel Rail Mill, filed in court at Balti-
more, Nov. % last, to be permitted to
sell O,0O0 tons of rails to R. F. Ken
nedy at $25 ton, with provision at
tached that if for any reason! Kennedy
did not want the rails he was to be re-
lieyed of his contract to take them by
the payment offs 8 ton. Mr.. John
son said he was curious to know who
the gentleman was that could contract
for so many rails at 81 more than the
market price, and agree to forfeit 81
ton if he did not take them. 50 he in
vestigated, he said, and learned that
Kennedy was an officer, stockholder,
and director of the Cambria Iron and
Steel Company, rival concern, and
Secretary of the new steel rail pool.
The ST a ton provision in the contract
was simply blind to cover the pay
ment of 81 900 day to the SparroWs
Point concern not to make rails, just as
the pool was able to pay another con-
Germ $4,000 year not to make rails
weighing over fifty pounds a yard.
The tariff of 25 per cent. enabled the
pool to do this. Turning to his Demo-
cratic associates. he continued:
"Do you wonder that just before Mr..
Carnegie went to Jerusalem the other
day he stopped long enough to say that
he was perfectly satisfied with your
bill?"
Throughout this episode the Demo
cratic members manifested their appre-
citation of Mr.. Johnson's retorts by fire.

Plunged Headlong Into Fiery Furnace.

Plunged Headlong Into Fiery Furnace.
st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
PINE BLUFF, ARK, January 5.-A
laborer at Acrumen & Funkhouser's
sawmill threw himself into the furnace
yesterday at noon. He had been at
work at the mill about a week, and
Mr.. Funkhouser says he was good
hand. When he applied for work he
gave his name as George Sherman and
said he was from White county, but he
afterward told Green Miller, with
whom he took his meals that his name
was John Lendsley. He would not
sleep nor eat in the house, but had his
meals brought to him. He talked
strangely, and spoke of wanting to see
the Mayor and Marshal, as he wanted
q fair trial; that he was afraid if he
was caught he would be killed. When
asked what he had done, he said he
had never harmed any one, but that
he was accused of killing mule.
Yesterday morning he opened one
of the furnace doors, but was driven
away by the fireman. After the mill
had whistled for noon and the men
had started for dinner the fremen re-
turned to get his pipe, just in time to
see the man disappear through the
door. Briney Bum, colored man
who was eating dinner near by, says
the man opened the door ofthe furnace,
and saying "Good-by," plunged head
foremost into the fire. Briney gave
the alarm, and men soon arrived and
pulled the corpse out.
The deceased was about 25 years old,
had blue eyes and yellowish hair, was
) feet 8 inches high, and weighed about
l35 pounds.

A CHILD's TERRIBLE EATH.
Bitten by a Mad Dog he Dies of hydro
phobia,
The State, 12th.1


+ A little four-year-old white boy died
in Columbia last night with all the
symptoms of that terrible disease, by
drophobia. DR.. Frank Green was with
the child when death came to end his
sufferings, which, however, were not,
of the worst form.
1t will be remembered that, some
thing over a month ago The State pub-
lished an account of the attack on this
little boy, son CT Mr.. J. ". Roberts,
who lives at the fair grounds, by a
mad dog, and told how the little fellow
had been lacerated by the brute. The
dog escaped, but was later killed.
AS time went on the little fellows
wounds healed up completely and his
parents never thought Of the matter
any more. Last week he had slight
cold but recovered from that entirely.
Two or three days ago he became al
fected in the most peculiar manner and
DIR. Green was called to attend him.
The physician found he had no fever
or any other symptoms of ordinary
trouble of any kind. He was dellrious
soon after he became i'll, and his raw
ings were heartrending during We'd
nesday and yesterday. BE trothed at
the mouth and displayed other symp-
toms of hydrophobia, though they were
not so pronounced, the attending ply
sician says, as would have been ez-
pected. Perhaps this was due to the
tender age of the child. When in deli
rum, he died. DR.. Green says it is the
most peculiar case that ever came under
his notice.

Baldwin the Better Man.
Fort Worth Gazette.

A young man by the name of AIKEN
lives in this county, near Van Alsytne.
Miss Fannie England is the name of a
handsome young lady who lives in the
same community. John Baldwin is
the name Of another young man who
lives not far from AIKEN. The two
young men have been suitors for the
hand of the young lady, and until late
yesterday afternoon AIKEN had every
reason to believe that the girl, hand
and all would soon belong to him.
Any way, yesterday morning AIKEN
procured marriage license and he and
the young lady were to be married yes
terday evening at 7 o'clock, and douet-
less would have been man and wife at
this time had it not been for the rival
suitor, Baldwin.
About noon yesterday Baldwin heard
or the intended marriage. He went to
the home of Miss England, and asked
her if it was true that she was going to
marry Akea. She said yes; and then
Baldwin asked her if she would come
to Sherman and marry him baldwin
The young lady said she would, when
Baldwin ent to the telegraph office and
wired the County Clerk to meet him at
the Court House last night. Baldwin
afterward returned for the young lady,
who was still willing to accompany
him, but the parents of the young lady
objected very forcibly. Baldwin, how
ever, succeeded in carrying the young
lady to the depot, where they took the
train for this city, and were married
late last night by minister Of this
city.

BURLINGTON, n. j., January r.
Frederick Stoya, an engineer in this
city, who claims to have served as a
surgeon in the Franco-Prussian war,
has succeeded in growing chicken nails
on the stumps of two of his fingers.
Last November Stoya mashed two
fiugers of bis right hand, necessitating
amputation at the first joint. About
two weeks later, after the fingers had
begun to heal nicely, Stoya conceived
the idea of grating nails on the stumps
and he selected and killed a healthy
