SYMPTOMS OF RABIES
Mare Acted Strangely, Biting Every.
thing Within Reach

1t is seldom that horse is attacked with
rabies, but Dr. r. L. Whittlesey is of the
opinion that an animal belonging to w. L.
Rider was a victim of that horrible disease.
The animal in question was mare, years
old, and had belonged to Rider so long that
it was a family pet. Rider conducts coal
yard at 5ll South Los Angeles street: On
Monday afternoon the little child OF Rider
was playing about the animal, and the mare
seemed to be perfectly well. Later the mare
seemed to be sick, and thinking that she was
suffering from an attack of indigestion Rider
to which she had been tied. At the stable
of nitre from beer bottle. Suddenly the
mare grabbed the neck of the bottle, and,
biting away large portion, began chewing
the glass. Rider did what he could to re-
move the glass, and yesterday morning went
to the barn and found that the horse was
apparently in great agony. The animal
seemed to have mania for biting, and every
object within reach was seized by her.
Rider had the animal taken to the vet
erinary hospital of DR.. Morrison on South
broadway. On the way the mare bit out
large piece from the back of the buggy

the halter rope which secured the animal IN
the stall was grabbed and bitten. DR.; Nor
rison placed the animal under the influence
of a drug until she was nearly UNCONSCIOUS,
but when the effects passed away the biting
mania returned Rider himself had suf-
fered for previous to the removal of the
animal to Morrison's stable she grabbed
Riders left forearm and bit him severely,
drawing blood. After Morrison and DR..
Whittesey diagnosed the symptoms they
both expressed the opinion that they were
those of rabies and advised Rider to have
the wound in his arm cauterized, which was
done.
The rare was later removed to the barn of
Rider and there continued biting everything
within reach. Finally the mania became self
destructive; the mare would seize her knees
and other portions of her body with her
teeth and tear out chunks of flesh, eventual
y loosening her teeth through biting post.
Rider did not think that the animal was af-
fected with the rabies, but was suffering
from collie or some similar complaint. He
decided, however, to put the animal out of
it's misery, which was accomplished by sew

FOREST INVESTIGATORS

interior has been brought to notice the vast
burned area through the mediums of for

supposed to guard the watersheds of the

Richard U. Goode arrived yesterday at

the Pacific coast geological survey which
has been working in the northern portion OF

Mr. Goode is here to get his men started
and leaves today for Washington, ID. G.
The parties are working in triangulation
topographic work and land subdivision The
latter branch, by the light of the recent
local forest fires, seems to be the most i'm
portant because it embraces the forestry
investigation. One hundred and fifty thou
sand dollars has been appropriated for this
work in the whole United States, and $685.
600 will be expended upon the work in this
vicinity alone.
Mr. Goode stated last evening that no
plans have as yet been made for replanting
the scorched Sierra Madres with the fire
proof tree, but he did not deny that this
may be done later. The object of the sur
vey is simply to amass data to be pre-
sented to the department of the interior
in the form of an official report from which
the department may diagnose the case and
select remedy. A comprehensive map will
be made of the burned districts, showing
the slopes, etc. ,and general topography.

Lecture on Irrigation

| PASADENA, Oct. 25.-(Office OF The
Herald, IL West Colorado street. Telephone
red 675) There was no session OF the city
council this morning, no quorum being pres
ent.
| A communication from Judge II. w. Ma
gee was filed with the city clerk, addressed
to the city council, in which suggestions
are made regarding the electric railway and
telephone companies abuse of their privi-
leges in planting their poles in such man
ner as to damage street trees. A portion OF
Judge Magee's communication is as folows
The telephone company has been allowed
to erect poles upon our streets, placing them
i'll some instances within Il very close DIS
tance of large ornamental shade trees. Ihe
digging Of the holes almost destroyed the
trees and the poles could not be elevated
into position without cutting away at least
one-tnird of the trees; and then that the
wires might not be obstructed, L under
stand the city trustees permit the corpora
ton to go through the city like vandas,
looping off the limbs and tops in such a
manner as to destroy their beauty and use

An ordinance should be adopted requiring
the telephone company to erect poles OF SUI
ticient height that the public shade trees
would not be interfered with;
An ordinance should also be enacted Inn

in and over the streets of our city to speed
not to exceed six miles an hour.
An ordinance should also be adopted com

TREES AND WATER
George H. Maxwell gave an interesting
talk at the Amercus club rooms last night
on forests and irrigation. The tree is the
mother of the fountain, said Mr.. Maxwell.
If these forests in your mountains are not
preserved the time will come when this part
of the country will go back to an aridity
such as now desolates the north of Africa,
where proud Carthage once tiourished. We
have read IA great deal lately of underground
currents of water. Where do they come
from? From the wooded slopes of your
mountains they percolate to the subtelra-
mean channels where you find them with
your wells. Denude the mountains, leave
them nothing but bare rocks and all this
water will run to waste and there will be
no underground streams for you to tap.
Then what will You do for water?
Water is the magic wand that has made
Southern California. If you are to grow and
flourish You must find more water, you must
find way to hold back and store up the
terrific torrents of water that run to waste
in the winter. Private capital cannot do
this. 1t can be done only by the national
government.
The government has built levees to pro-
tect the settlers at the mouths of our riv-
ers: why not build reservoirs to hold back
the floods at the headwaters?"

Bondage-The Late War

| SAN DIEGO, Oct &c. H. Castle, con-
gresham from the Seventh district and can
didate on the fusion ticket for reelection,
addressed an immense audience last night
in the Santa Fe hall in this city. Congress
man Castle devoted this first portion of his
speech chiefly against t0e abuses of monopo-
lies, which he designated as the special priv
ilege class. This portion of our population,
| he claimed, did not represent tenth OF our
people, but by the powers granted them by
the Republican congress and Repubilcan leg
isatures they were able to rob the remain
ing 80 per cent of their just earnings. he
was especially severe on the Republicans for
their action cutting off the coinage of silver.
and said that they were a cheap rag paper
money outfit and nothing else. He showed
that the demonetization OF silver was only
a part of the gigantic scheme for the money
sharks of Lombard and Wall streets to
control the money of this nation. Their
next move would be to retire the 5000, 600 600
outstanding government notes and subst-
tute in their place interest bearing national
bank notes. He was unrelenting but just
in his denunciation of the acts of the pres
cnt administration IN reference to the late
war, and gave some inside history that was
a revelation to his audience, He claimed
that the administration was forced to pro
tect the honor of this country in declaring
war with Spain and they had only ta ken
action when they were compelled by public
OplnlOn. Many uetalleu statements We're
given as to how the administration had
squandered money, and in one instance
cited the purchase of the Merrimac for $500.

for the steamer was to sink her at the en-

the war revenue and bond isue, showing
how they placed the burden on the poor

man Castle was frequently interrupted with
applause, and at the close of the meeting
three cheers were given for c. II. Castle, the

the scalper is essentially dishonest and
IN many cases be is fence for dishonest
people, receiver of stolen or lost goods
Railroad companies should have the
privilege of conducting their own bust
ness and certainly should not be compell-
ed to accept the agency OF unauthorized
persons.
The bill referred provides for the re-
demption by the company OF passage tick
cts when unused in whole or in part. That
saves the ticket purchaser from loss and
leaves the ticket scalper wholly without
Justification for being.
Another obstacle To convenience of
travel because of the existence of the
scalper which would be removed by his
abolition, is the restriction necessarily
placed upon excursion tickets. This is
an annoyance to travellers but railway
companies are forced to require these
conditions because of the alpers trade.

HE Milwaukee Sentinels criticism OF
the closing sentence in A. J. Schmitz'
speech is unfair,as it is clear to every one
1t WAS mere slip. No one is secure from
these slips and there is DOT public
speaker IN the world who has not made
them. Even writer's make them and in
their case there is less excuse. Schmitz
is man whose thought ls rapid, and who
is intensely earnest in everything he says
His conviction Is such that it swallows
up every other consideration and there
lever was speaker less intent upon choos
ing his words when his reason is active. 1t
is fault, but the intensity which is it's
cause Is fold more valuable than
vacuity with studied and nice phraseol
ogy, He is magnificent fellow when his
sympathies are stirred and he reaches
genuine eloquence from depth of feeling.
Schnltz can speak we'll and most effect
lively when he is interested. There is no
speaker IN the state who at such times
throws the force Of his personality to the
same extent into his utterances He will
never be an after-d amer speaker because
he has no taste for that kind of oratory
and without liking he has no spirit. He
speaks without preparation,-a another
fault-,but need fear no man in the state
for the vlgor of his thought or the logical
connection of his argument. The Pilot
is not wholly in sympathy with Mr..
Schmitz's address, but it was a strong
one, from which the ldpSltS Hngude at
the close In no way detr8cts
