Rat Attacks q baby.
(New York Herald.)


A big rat bit Samuel Stern's 1-year-old
baby. Clifford, while the child was asleep
in his mothers arms at 2 o'clock in the
morning. A doctor was speedily sum-
moned, and stanched the flow Of blood.
and little Clifford is now out OF danger.
The Storms occupy a nicely-furnished
fiat on the first floor of the apartment
house No. 147l Madison avenue. Mr..
Stern is commercial traveller. and left
the city early in the week for a business
trip to the West. Mrs. Stern and baby
Clifford retired at 10 o'clock, and at
o'clock in the morning the mother was
awakened by the chiid's screams. BY
the dim light thrown by a street lamp
Mrs. Stems saw large. dark stains on
the baby's night-dress, on the bed cloth
ing, and on the sleeves and neck Of her
night-dresS.
Hastily jumping out of bed she lit the
gas, and, to her amaZement, saw that
the stains were made by blood. The
child's left hand had been bitten. With
a cloth Mrs. Stern stanched the flow OF
blood, and taking the child in her arms,
ran to the fiat OF friends on the next
floor and awoke them.
A brief examination of the baby was

on the hand was the only injury. A
closer inspection showed the marks OF
four teeth, evidently made by a rat
The little baby had put his bleeding
hand to his face. and this led the mother
to believe that the child had been more
seriously wounded.
Mrs. Stern called In DIR. s. Dutton
Whitney. Of No. 1461 Madison avenue.
who ascertained that a couple OF veins
had been severed. He cauterized the
wound and bandaged the tiny hand, the
infant "cooing" and smiling up at him.
DR.. Whitney told me that he had never
before heard of rat attacking a baby
In that manner. He said he did not
believe that blood poisoning would result.
The baby appeared on the stage Of the
Fourteenth-Street Theatre few months
ago. when he took the part of an infant
in arms In a romantic melodrama. 1t Is
said that he played the part with much
credit. but the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Children stepped in and cut
short his histrionic career.
