GAVE IT HYDR0PH0BiA.
Unknown Man in a Fit Sunk His Teeth
Into Collie


LANCASTER. Ohio, April 2L-An aged
tramp stopped at the farm OF Prof. E.
Burgess in Greenfield township, and ask
ed for something to cat. He had scarcely
got the words out Of his mouth when he
was attacled with peculiar fit. His eyes
rolled and - limbs twitehed, while froth
gathered on Is lips, and he gave voice to
wild cries and grOans-
A shepherd dog belonging 10 the farm
attacked the man, and he grappled with
the animal. lifting it from the ground as
though il were toy. The animal fought
viciously to get free. but the man held
il with the strength Of a maniac, and
sunk his teeTa in its shoulder He then
dashed the de- to the ground, and, turn
ing, ran out OF the yard and disappeared
over the hill
The dog was in a dazed condition for
some time after the fight, and lay in a
heap. he was frOthing al the mouth The
animal bounded into the house and caused
q panic among the members OF the family
by showing unmistakable signs of rabies.
His eyes were rolling every muscle
twitching and he was frothing at the
mouth The animal made a circuit of the
house and then disappeared over the
same road as that taken by TIE tramp.
The latter was an elderly man, with
long white hair, and the people in the
neighbOrhood. much alarmed over the in
cident, are trying 10 locate him.

DRIFTING TO PAGANISM. ~
SAYS BISHOP POTTER

NEW HAVEN April 21--Bishop Henry
c. Potter, Of New York. yesterday told
Yale undergraduates from the pulpit OF
Batteil Chapel, the college church, that
the lack of sympathy, of Christian fellow
feeling and artiieiality that was creeping
into life in the great cities today indicated
q drift toward a pagan eoeiety.
He delivered the regular Sunday morn
ing sermon at Yale, the chapel being
crowded with students, members of the
faculty. AID New Haven business men
The sermon was devoted to a resume of
the lapse Of the American people from the
simple and sober life OF a century ago to
the artificial life of today. and that pre-
dicted for the coming century.
Bishop Potter took for his text the act
Of Peter in healing the cripple by calling
upon him to walk, performing miracle in
a simple, direct way.
Bishop Potter said:
Two hundred years age we broke away
from artifciality from pomp- and useless
ceremony TO a freer, more simple and
palmer life. Since then it has not been
mems adjuncts, but their simplicity that
gave them power.
NOW. with wealth aceruing and estab-
fishing itself and making the earth beau-
tifuI, with the congestion of population,
and with the spread of leisure, there has
arisen the danger that we shall revert to
the artifciality of the past.
Now we are being caught up in the
vast hopper Of modern machinery by the
trusts, by the corporations. and we are
made by them sort OF machine We must
fully realize the danger that mind as we'll

future capitalized, and that the real think
ing and planning for the many will be
done by mere handful

hand How is It nOw7 A short time ago
