JERSEYS BLoODTuIRsTY FLIES.
Peddler So Badly Lacerated That
He Is Likely to Die.

New York, Aug. 3.-Jersey mosquitoes
have placed Louis King in condition which
seriously menaces his life. He is in Gou-
verneur Hospital with his eyes closed ard
his face and head 50 swollen from mos
quito bites that. as Dr. Shields, of the hos
pital, says, Ibis head is as big as a
puInpkin."
King is a peddleT, and lives in a lodging
house at No. 50 Bowery on Saturday he
and another peddler went to IIoboken with
a horse and wagon and their wares to 20
up the country. They had gone some miles
when they were attacked by a swarm OF
mosquitoes Kings companion protected
himself from the insects by covering his
head with a flanket, but King urged the
horse on IN an attempt to get away from
the pests.
There was no need TO urge the horse, for
he soon became maddened by the mosquitoes
and galloped off at such a rate that King
could scarcely control him. King was in
his shirt sleeves, and the mosquitoes stung
him about the neck, face and head until
he was all but crazed from the irritation
His hands and wrists were soon swollen
to almost twice their natural size, but b e
got the horse under control and drove back
TO Hobo ken.
On the return to this city Kings COM
panion left him, and the pedler returned to
the lodging house, where he sought re-
lief from the mosquito bites with some heal
ing lotion. He passed Saturday night in
agony, and In the early morning his condi-
ton was such that an ambulance from
Gouverneur Hospital was called, and King
removed there.
Or. Shields, who attended him. said the
man must have receiv ed at least 500 bites
from mosquitoes, and that, owing to a skin
disease from which he had once suffered.
the poison from the mosquito bites made
the case a serious one
