DEATH WAS, RELIEF.
End Of the Horrible HydrOphObia
4 - Case In AshevilIe.

End Of the Horrible HydrophObia
Case In AshevilIe.
Willie Harris, the young victim of the
maddog's bite, did not die until to-
night, says an Asheville dispatch of
September 4, to the Charlotte Obser-
yer. Some further information was OBJ
tanned today of the stay Of Mr.. Harris
and his son at the Pasteur Institute.
in New York. When the lad was first
taken to that institution a number of
the attending physicians were called
into consultation. They told Mr.. Har7
ris frankly that the case was very
serious one, but added that there were
grounds for hope, and gave assurances
that every possible effort would be made
to save the boy. Mr.. Harris carried
the head Of the dog to the institute and
turned it over to the authorities. They
| inoculated a rabbit with the poison
taken from the dogs head. The atten-
dants would never say what came of
the rabbit, doubtless for the reason that
they did not wish to frighten the faith
er, but later Mr.. Harris learned that
the rabbit died from hydrophobia in IA
days. When Mr.. Harris started to leave
the institute the physicians gave the
son some medicine, saying that would
probably last until he could get home.
AS stated in last nights dispatch to
The Observer, the little fellow was seiz-
ed with terrible convulsions on the train
near Salisbury, and it was necessary to
call in physician. Once on the train
there was a scene replete with pathos.
The boy became momentarily quiet and
fully conscious, and looking into the
face Of his father, asked for kiss.
This the father dared not do, as the
New York physicians had warned him
against the fatal danger from contact
with the saliva in the boys mouth. The
remains will be taken to Marshall for
interment tomorrow morning In the
family burying ground near the home
Of Senator Pritchard. the boys uncle.
Attention was some time since called
to the fact that several dogs and some
stock, as we'll as several people. were
bitten by maddogs in this vicinity. A
fine cow belonging to Mr.. c. R. Whit
aker Of Biltmore, was bitten at that
time, about three weeks ago. Yester-
day the cow grew restless and this
morning it was found that she had bit
ten her legs where the teeth of the dog
had entered until it was raw. The ami
NAL was then seized with convulsions
and about noon Mr.. Whitaker tele-
phoned to his home. directing that the
COW should be Immediately killed. This
same dog came down through the
Gash's Creek settlement, biting all the
dogs and stock in his path.

IT is not unnatural that Col. Jim Till
man should seek to make it appear that
the Columbia State defeated him, nor
neither is it unnatural that the Column
bia State should try to secure credit for
Col. Jim's defeat. The claims Of one,
however, are as unreasonable as those
of the other, and both are an insult to
the intelligence Of the state. Jim Till
man was defeated purely on account OF
his character as developed during his
incumbency as lieutenant governor. 1t
is true that The State, along with other
newspapers. had something to do with
showing up that character; but its
malicious fight on Col. Jim during the
campaign made him more votes than it
took away from him.

IT is interesting to note that the gov
ernment's final estimate on the last
cotton crop was about one million bales
short. This was not at all surprising.
OF all the machinery heretofore In
vogue for estimating the cotton crop
that of the government has probably
been most defective. This machinery
consists of three or four voluntary re-
porters in each township of the cotton
belt. Time and experience have learned
the public the effect of government re-
ports on the market. Common public
sentiment has it that reporters should
underestimate rather than overesti-
mate. 1t. is a fact that many of these
reporters give in their estimates hon
estly and fairly; but it is also fact
that many are disposed to yield to pub
lie sentiment and underestimate the
facts. Occasionally government re-
ports have a bullish effect: but the COM
mercial world understands the actual
situation and more often than other
wise, is able to discount these reports

Charleston special of Sunday to the

county Democratic executive commit
tee. Chairman Thayer placed before
the solicitor all the affidavits and 9TH

cent primary election. Under the laws
Of the state the solicitor cannot himself
institute criminal proceedings against
anyone, but it is believed that the re-
port of the special committee appoint

swearing out warrants against certain
managers of the election. Solicitor Hill
debrand reaffirmed his determination to
prosecute the guilty persons.

LESS attention has been paid to. the
hay crop this year than was paid to II
last year. This crop received an unu-
sual amount Of attention last year be-
cause it seemed to be a case of such
great necessity. In view of the great
value of the crop. however, it would
seem that it should have received at
tention this year purely on that basis
With the case of numerous farmers this
has no doubt been the result.

A LII the six batteries of the N. re. A serve artillery brigade on their way to the camps stopped to pass the night in the village of Mestechko, When the tumult was at it's highest. and the officers hustled about noisely near the cannon, q man in plain clothes appeared on horseback from behind the church, lifting his hat, said:
 'sHis Highness, Lieut.. Gen. von Rab. bek, invites the gentlemen officers to his house for tea"
 And the man on horseback raised his hat again and disappeared behind the church.
 A half an hour later the officers, 19 in number, stood at the threshold of the generals house. They were met by Von Robbek himself, a good-looking old man of about 50, in plain clothes. The general shook their hands and smiled, though it was clearly evident on his face that he invited the officers merely because he thought decency required it.
 When the officers entered the large dining room, ten or 12 ladies and gentle men were already seated by the long table, drinking tea.
 "GentIemen, there are so many of you here that it is impossible to intro duee you one by onc!" said the general in a loud voice, trying to appear very cheerful. Introduce yourselves, gen tlemen, as best you like!
 The officers, some with very serious even stern faces, others smiling for cedly, and all feeling rather awkward made bows to those in the room and seated themselves by the table to drink tea.
 Capt. Ryabovich, a small, round shouldered man, in spectacles and Iynx-like sidewhiskers, felt more awk ward than any of his fellow-ofacers While some of his colleagues tried tc look serious, and others smiled for cedly, his face, his lynx-like sidewhisk CTS, and his spectacles seemed to say: sI axn the most tirnid, the most bash ful and colorless officer in the entire brigadei' At first he could not hz his attention on any one face or ob ject in the room. The faces, dresses the cut-glass decanters filled with cognac, fhe steam rising from the glasses of tea,-all these blended into one huge impreasion, which filled Ryabovich with confusion and with 2 dexire to hide his head somewhere. Btu little later hcmastered hsmself. anc recovering his sight. began to observe things.
 yon Rsbbek and his family were skill fully entertaining the officers, looking after their glasses and their mouths lnquiring now and then, whether al of them were drinking, whether every one'a tea was sweet, why this one ats no biscuits. why that one drank m cognac. And the more RyabovicI looked on and listened the less he liked this far from sincere but weIl-discip lined family.

Whenever Ryabovich went on q spree, together with his comrades, or behaved other wise unbecomingly, he~was downcast on his return, feeling guilty before her and mentally begging forgiveness.
 During sleepless nights, when he re- called his childhood days, his father and mother, and everything dear to his heart, he invariably thought of Mes l techko, of the dark room and of the 1 kiss--the p1easantest episode in all of his life.-Adapted from the Russian. by Herman Bernstein, in Boston Bud- l get.
