Ben Cooper returned home Friday
from Chicago where he has been taking
treatment at the Pasteur Institute. He
is feeling we'll and has experienced no
i'll effects from the treatment. He be-
lieves he is now thoroughly immune
against the dangers of hydrophobia.
The two children, Emma Wiesan and
Charley Husen, are still in Chicago at
the institute and are very we'll, no traces
of the disease having developed under
the treatment. There is no truth in the
report that they were taken down with
the rabies while at the institute. This
rumor was probably started by the fact
that Mr.. Wiesan went to Chicago to at
tend his daughter, his wife who was TAX
ing care of her being taken sick AL
though the children have developed no
symptoms of the rabies, it will satisfy
the people of the neighborhood to have
| them treated so there will be no chance
of their being infected. No further de-
| velopments have occurred in the neigh
| borhood at MELVILLE over the mad dog
scare, although all danger from commu-
nicating the disease is not yet over.
