Hydrophobia.

A Devils Lake special says: About
three weeks ago q strange shepherd
dog made its appearance in the vicin-
ity of Bartlett and after swapping at
and biting all the horses, COWS, dogs,
pigs and sheep it happened to
ter, was finally killed by a farmer
named Andrew Thompson, who found
it in his barn worrying the stock.
Since then some of Thompson's farm
animals have developed symptoms of
what is supposed to be hydrophobia
and have been killed. He has lost q
mare, 20 and sheep in this manner.
A neighbor named Tom Thompson has
killed a pig and a calf and Ole Ander-
son has killed o cow. DR.. Crewe, the
state veterinarian, was sent for to ex-
anime the latter animal and pro-
nounced it a clear case of hydropho-
bia. Many farmers in the neighbood
of Bartlett have killed their dogs and
are watching their stock carefully. So
far as known no persons were bitten.
About the same time Thomas Maloney,
a farmer living in the northern part
of the county, 25 miles from Bartlett,
noticed symptoms of madness in his
dog and finally killed it, but not until
after it had bitten a mare. The mare
had to be killed this week. It made q
vicious attack on a COW and a bull
and those animals are now laid up
awaiting developments. There, are
reports of strangely acting dogs hav-
ing been seen in other parts of the
county and Indications are that there
will be a we'll defined mad dog scare
in this section OF the state when the
facts arc fully known.

Almost al these PROFESSIONS took place

rockets consist only of a joint of bamboo

Tho most curious procession is partici-

What q Knot L..

Probably there is no nautical term more
frequently used than the word ''knot. -
The word is Synonymous with the nautical
mile, or 6,0SO.27 feet, while, as every one
knows, the geographical mile is {, 1850 feet.
This would make the knot equal to l Is.
100 of geographical miles, and therefore, in
order to compare the speed Of a boat OK.
pressed in knots with q railroad train, it is
necessary to multiply the speed in knots
by l 1900.
Another point to DO remembered is that
speed means u distance travelled in unit

Grigsby OF Grigsby's Rough Riders
called upon the president a few days
ago to induce him to retain Grigsby's
command, now stationed at Chicka-

formed them that it was the intention
Of the war department to muster all
cavalry out of the service at the
earliest possible moment and therefore
he could not retain the rough riders
on the muster roll as cavalrymen. He
added, however, that II Grigsby's
command was willing to dismount and
