RABEs-PR00F DOGS.
A simple Operation Performed by Mr..
Lawyers Father.


Lawyers Father.
From the Baltimore Sun.
Mr.. T.. ]. Lawyer. state fire marshal. who
has been interested in the children who
were sent to the Pasteur Institute to be
treated for the bite of a mad dog, said yes
terday:
My father. William Lawyer, who is an
old man. has always been fond Of dogs and
he has always performed an operation on
all the animals he has owned to prevent
them from having the rabies. He has had
but one animal affected, and In this case
he failed to take the precaution as he had
done with the other dogs.
when he was seventeen years of age a
German blacksmith. who lived at Hanover.
Pa, owned two puppies. He called my
father one day and said: William. l will
show you something which will always be
Of use to you Taking one of the dogs,
the blacksmith placed it on a boot top,
and pulling its mouth open. pulled the
animals tongue out Then he took sharp
knife and made slit under the dog
tongue. then took awl and forced out
a small worm. When he had completed
the operation, the blacksmith asked father
to try his hand on the other animal which
he did. The blacksmith then said: These
dogs will never have the hydrophobia. If
they are bitten by q mad dog their jaws
will lock and they will not be able to open
them"
The fire marshal said his Iatner mao taken
the precaution to follow the blacksmith 8
advice One of the dogs. which had been
treated by this process was bitten by a
dog which was mad, and in few days
the mouth of Mr.. Lawyers dog became
locked and the animal died without fnflct-
ing any injury to any one.
Mr. Lawyer says he would like to have
some of the medical fraternity experiment
with two dogs. taking the worm from the
tongue of one and leaving It in the tongue
| of the other, then inoc,lating both with
the virus from a dog known to have been
affected with the rabies.

DAN STUARF'S AGENT ANGRY
He ReSents Comments of the Gotham
Press on Boxing Law.
Prize Fights Are virtuous, He Says,
When COMPARED with Tainted
GOtham's Seeley Dinners.

Chicago, Feb. "a Carson, New, special
Go the Record says: W. X. Wheelock, Dan
Stuart's agent, while speaking OF the atti-
tude of the New York press Oh the Nevada
glove contest law. said yesterday.
The stand taken by the people OF
RaiutedGouhan on prize fight 5 is worse than
ndiculous. The place recently alluGed TO
iD Congress as the Manhattan reservation
is the greatest ceSSpoOl OF vice in America
If they would pause in their career OF in
iquIty and vice long enough TO attend q
few genuine prize fights il would take their
attention away from the teenng licentious-
ness OF their lives and fenuvate their
morals.
Look at the Seeley dinner episode
Nothing as scandalous could ever happen
ia any OF the Western States. Did yoa ever
hear of a dinner being given in Nevada
that the police had to interrupt? / guess
not But let me tell you that this was only
a milo incident. At some OF those dinners
given by The Swells OF Gotham, WAC hold up
their hands a prize fights, things are done
that no gentleman would describe in a
Western bauoom. They are unprintable
and unspeakable, and if | attempted to
describe them TO a crowd Of Western cow
boys in harroom they would march out
in disgust.
Would you take lady TO one OF those
dinners? Hardly. But a lady can attend
the coming glove contest, and. while she
may see a good deal To shock her nerves,
she will see nothing TO shock her modesty. -

sLAvIN AND HALL NAY FIGHT.
Quebec sports Have Raised a Purse
for a Set-tO

New York, Feb. "a special from Que
bee, says: Slavin and Hall are here dead
broke and in low spirits, as they want TO
- to Carson and have no way to reach
there. Local sports have raised a fund
for $500, provided they can elude the au-
thorities. and fight for it. The winner is
TO get $500 and the loser $500.
Yesterday when asked for their opinions
on the coming fight, Hall said: "The fight
should be the best seen for years Corbett
is the fastest and cleverest big man of the
century. FitzsiHmonsis one ofthe greatest
fighters in his class that ever lived, but in
this case he is going out of his class and
will, think lose. l believe the fight will
last from twelve to eighteen rounds
Slavin, when asked about the fight said:
i'Fitzsimmons, In my mind, will win the
fight, no matter whether the finish comes
