Just 10 what extent the ''money

will figure in the county election
this year is still a matter Of con
lecture. but us it seems that these
are the elements of Democratic

neither will be spared.

The rehabilitation of the Demo
cracy of this county by eliminating
the booze and Doodle element
would rebound to the credit of the
party. Decent Democrats do not
care for the success that comes to
the party by the means of money
and whiskey, used to corrupt vot-
eys and debauch their fellow men.

Two Great Danes Secured to
Guard Husbands Country House
Attack Her Unexpectedly.
FIGHT LIKE HUNGRY TIGERS.
Nine. Sempis, Until Her Marriage
a Year Ago, Was Miss Louise
Rutherford and She Lived
in Brooklyn.

Paris, July 26.-Mme. Edmond Sempis,
who, before her-marriage a year ago, was
Miss Louise Rutherford of Brooklyn, was
set upon by two hunger-maddeued
great Dane dogs, which had been secured
10 guard her husbands country house at
Annecy Lake, and so terribly injured that
she died two hours after the attack.
NJ. Sempis is a prominent business man
in Paris. His home at Annecy Lake is
isolated, and following a recent attempt by
burglars to enter the place he purchased
two powerful Great Danes as guards.
The dogs proved so ferocious that they
were confined in an iron inclosure during
the day time for the safety of the family.
NJ. Sempis was advised to starve them, so
that when food was given to them they
would remember kindly their benefactors.
So they had nothing to eat for two days.
Nine. Sempis did not her hus-
band and their guests who started for a
drive to AiX-Les-Bains. She noticed the
dogs while she was walking in the yard,
and, knowing that they had been without
food, determined to feed them, as they
were apparently quiet. She ordered the
cook to prepare a bowl of meat and carried
It to the kennel. the woman accompanying
her.
The instant Nine. Sempis entered tha INN
Enclosure the great Danes leaped upon her
like hungry tigers. Tney bore her TO the
RrounQ, ana as she Valnly sought 10 defend
herself their teeth sank in her arms and
body Her struggles apparently maddened
the animals the more.
The codchman heard the screams of Nine.
Sempis and the cook. Nine. Sempis begged
the man to save her. He ran to the stable
to get q pitchfork. When he returned the
great Danes had fearfully torn their victim
The coachman fought the brutes into a
corner and kept them there until the cook
summoned neighbors and carried Nine. Sem
pts from the Enclosure in a dying condi-
ton.
A few minutes after NJ. Sempis and his
guests returned she succumbed to her in
juries. after exchanging a few words with
her husband. who is nearly crazed by the
tragedy.

Persons who were IN the courtroom when
the verdict was read and watched Faulk-
