CAsTRo's LITTLE BLUFF.

TIE RESIGNATION of President
4 Castro of the Venezuelan republic
looks very much like an opera bouffe
hlun II it is possible to judge any
mans character at long range, Castro
ls fond OF notoriety. He likes TO do
things that give him the center of the
stage where the lime light strikes him

had much notoriety lately.

him. there are other things in the world
and other people just az important as

crowded Off of the front page Of recent
events and both were rapidly passing
into what IS known, in newspaper par

that desperate stroke was necessary,
Castro springs before the footlights
and in a few passionate remarks hands

FATE's GRIM PRANK.

DATE PLAYS MANY grim pranks I'm
1 this world. but it has rarely
played one more CHASTITY than that Of.
which Dr. Loomis of New York City
was the victim. Dr. LOOMS is a scien-
list Of high reputation and a physician
whose standing is as good as the best.
one Of his theories for years has been
that there is no such disease as by
drophObla He has written many es-
says and pamphlets I'm support Of this
theory, but he win write no more.
A few weeks ago Dr. LOOMS son
was bitten by a dog that had mani
Tested symptoms Of rabies. The doc
tor was at first inclined 20 pay little
attention TO the injury. The wound
was treated ia the ordinary way. but
finally after much persuasion, DR..
LOOMS took the lad for treatment to a
Pasteur institute He was too late.
The incubation period proved unusu-
ally brief and the boy, after lingering
for a short time in frightful agony.
died of hydrophobia.
Dr. LOOMS is convinced now. A lit
tie grave I'm a New York cemetery has
upset an his theories. A void in his
home that viii never be filled has prov
EN- that the paper he read before the
American Medical association some
years ago on the subject OF hydropho-
hia was all a Misrepresentation. In
brief statement he has renowned his
former belief, for he says:
"The expert testimony Of the veteri-
nary surgeon who examined the dog
when alive, the tests made by experts
on the dead animal; the unmistakable
symptoms that developed ln the boy:
the testimony of Drs. Lewis Stimson.
Charles l.. Dana, Joseph =. Winters
and others, leaves no doubt I'm my mind
that the case was one of hydrophobia.
transmitted from the dog. Tt is the
first authenticated case that has ever
come TO my knowledge"
What a fearful penalty DR.. Loomis
has paid for his unbeuef. What
tragic coincidence it is that the first
authenticated case OF hydrophobia he
had ever seen, caused the death of his
own son. The tragedy, for it is
tragedy, goes TO show that even men
of science cannot afford 10 be too SET
I'm their opinions. If Dr. LOOMS had
not been so sure that such a disease
as HydF9Bb9bId did not exist, his boy
might be alive today.
The Pasteur treatment. taken in time
is said 90 be an absolute preventive
OF hydr0phObia Numerous cases are
of record where people who have been
bitten by dogs Enthusiastically affected
with rabies were saved from hydropho-
hia through the Pasteur method of
treatment The disease is undoubtedly
one Of the rarest, but it is also one Of
the most deadly, and no physician, no
parent can afford TO take unnecessary
chances with H.
