Twelve Year old Janet Rude While
Playing with a Calf Narrowly Es-
capes n Horrible Death injuries
Received are Terrific Small Chance
For HeI Recovery.
Jenat Rude was terribly gored by
an iniurated COW on Friday evening
and will hardly recover from the in
juries which were shocking in their
extent. She was found unconscious
and being gored by the vicious ami
nal which had become infuratied
while the child was playing with a
calf an accustomed past time.
Neiehbors heard the child scream
and ran TO her assistance. She was
found unconscious with the COW
still goring her. After a terrible
battle the brute was driven away
and the little girl rescued Her left
arm was torn from its socket, sew
eral RIBS were broken and she had
received severe internal injuries.
Her clothing was completely torn
OIL not rag remaining on her.
the child was carried to the
house and DR.. Charles MeLane sum
moned He did everything that
could be done to alleviate her pain
and she is resting better at last re-
ports bud can hardly recover from
the terrible injuries received
She was twelve years of age and
is daughter of She late William
Rude who died from hiceoughs last
spring and who was well known
over.the county. Janet had been
in the habit of playing with the
calf crawling under the fence to do
so and was out engaged in this when
the cow for some unaccountable
reason rushed at her with the re-
suits given above.
No men were in the vicinity and
the woman who went to the rescue
had very hard time of it to get
her away from the COW.

MAD DOG KILLED.
Crowd Catches the Animal
Near the Seneca Factory.

He Does not Get Chance 60 Bite any
one Resides Mr.. Bayles Dogs Head
Will BE Sent TO Baltimore for Ex.
animation No Other Dogs Bitten rs
Far as Reported,
The mad dog which bit s. ].
Bayles in Seneca on Friday after
noon was killed after short chase
near the Seneca Glass Factory Ii
was shot by one of the crowd OF men
who took after it after it had bitten
Mr.. Bayles. The animal did not
succeed in citing any one else so
every one was on his guard after it
seized its first victim.
The head was brought up to town
and turned over to DR.. Gibbons.
He telegraphed and wrote to the
Pasteur institute in Baltimore for
instructions and in case the head OF
the institute is at home he will for
ward the head at once to him. He
is q great friend of DR.. Gibbons.
1t is proposed to take the brain
for test. 1t will be dissolved in
glyeerin and an injection given a
rabbit If Bunny dies with hydro
phobia that will show that the dog
had rabies. II it does not die it
will demonstrate that nothing par.
ticular was the matter with the ami
NAL.
Where he came from is not yet
known but he was noticed by a
brakeman to swim the river having
come from some where on the west
side. He took down the railroad
track and meeting with Mr. Bayles
bit him before that gentleman knew
anything unusual was going on.
The wound was promptly canter
lied aud it is not very likely to
prove of serious nature. In case
the test shows that the dog had
rabies he will go e Baltimore for
treatment and he may go in any
event.
No other dogs were bitten as far
as reported but il will be well to
watch che actions of TRANCE dog that
are seen, during the next few weeks
and If they are funny shoot them
Immediately.

The South Morgantown show
grounds is the objective point to-day
for the small boy and his elders too
for that matter. The Welsh Bros.
circus is the cause of all the excite
ment and hutter, the aggregation
came to town this morning via the B.
x O. railway. This same show ap.
peared in Morgantown last summer
and created most favorable impress
sion with their excellent performan-
ces. 1t is claimed by the manage
ment that the show is doubly enlarg-
ed for this season and is also much
better in all departments. No street
parades are advertised, the theory Of
the management is to be immense
in attractions under canvass, the band
carried by the show however appeared
on the streets at noon time announc-
ing the arrival of the exhibition.
The opening performers commenced
promptly at two O'Clock this afternoon
with a good sized audience in attend
ance and the various acts are being
received 10 an enthusiastic manner
Among the performances who appear
are the famous Three Band Bros, eye
Ionic acrobats and postnrers, the ST.
Alban Sisters, sensational trapezists,
Others include, Louis Beauyais, Al
fred the Great Heintz, Peasley and
Schnorr, Berger and Gleason, Claude
and Nellie La Motto, Misses Dair and
Zanta, Max Hugo and Harry f. West
Sisters Mansfield Geo. Z. Boyd and
Prof. Harry Mohn. A most COM
mendable feature is the absolute re-
tinement of everything and the most
exacting person can attend without
hesitation. The concluding perform
/ ance will be given this evening at
eight o'clock after which the show
departs for Fairmont where they will
exhibit on Monday.

Mason and Dix0n's Line.

The estimated cost of the resuryey
TO be made CONFORMITY by Maryland
and Pennsylvania of the historic Ma
son & Dixon's line and the restoration
of the boundary monuments which
originally stood one mile apart is
$4,000. Each state has appropriated
$4,000 with which to meet the ex-
pense. The work will begin on or
about September 1st. Some exami-
nations have already been made from
which it appears that number of
old monuments have been destroyed
or taken away and there are several
instances in which it will require an
actual survey in order to determine
where the new monuments will be
placed. The original monuments
were brought from England. On the
south side Of each is the great seal of
Maryland and on the north side the
great seal of Pennsylvania. Some of
the monuments have been taken by
private parties and are now being
used as door steps. The surveying
will be done by the United States
Coast and Geodetic survey without
cost, but the assistants will be paid
by the two states. The line was orig
lnaliy run between the years OF 1862
and 1868.
The Mason & Dixon line forms a
part of the boundary line Of this coun-
ty and many of the old monuments
are still standing.
