His bride of less than two weeks
was at the time of the tragedy in an
adjoining room, and was awakened
by the discharge of the revolver,

while standing before the mirror OF
the dressing case. The bullet enter
ed the right temple and crashed
through the head in the rear of the

members of the household rushed to
the mayors assistance, but be did

to the floor and expired within an
hour.
A number Of physicians who were
Immediately summoned, at once ex-
pressed the opinion that the wound

No cause can be assigned for the
act by the members of MIR. McLane's
family. Since the fire of last Feb

at work administering the affairs OF
the city, besides endeavoring to d.
rect the rehabilitation and rebuilding
of the burned district. This together
with criticisms by his political
opponents are thought by many to
have caused temporary alteration

MAD Dog" Scare.

From now until fall is the season
generally accepted as ''dog days" If
the public would realize the fact that
puppies, as a rule, are born from
January to May, dogs apparently mad
would be more nationally treated.
Dogs suffer as much as children
from teething, which is the case Of
the former ex xends, say, from four
to eight months. During this stage
any undue excitement will produce a
fit, which is ''frothing at the mouth,
running around in circles, and snap.
ping at anything within reach"
A mad dog-and I have seen one
during its paroxysms for eight days
displays no such symptoms. It
does not froth at the mouth; neither
does it run in circles. On the other
hand, it goes at slope" straight
ahead. and never snaps unless some
thing stands directly in it's way. Its
eyes glisten and are bloodshot. By
comparison mad dog is. more era
tional' than one with fit. The mad
dog, in dazed, misty way, knows
what is going on. The dog with a
fit is frenzied, utterly unreasonable
and would 60 out of it's way to bite.
The mad dog would not.
I can think of no better simils for
really mad dog than a man with
acute gout. The mad dog does not
want to bite--is not thinking of it..
All it knows is that it is suffering
acutely. Its only solace is motion.
It's nervous agony is such that ii can
brook nothing in it's way, nothing
likely to touch it.
These are my observations of the
only man dog I ever saw. She was
observed daily-st distance
BY all the veterinarians in the district
and the leading lights of the Eeteri-
nary College Of London. My mother
or myself, standing to one side, used
to open the door where she was con-
fined and she would brush past with
out the slightest indication of biting
US. She, however, died in nine daye,
suffering terribly, and the autopsy at
the veterinary college showed she
suffered from acute Inflammation of
all the more vital parts.
Mad dogs don't 60 around in cir
cles, they don't froth at the mouth,
they don't snap to the right or to
the left. They 60 straight ahead
and bite only whatever is Immediately
in their way.

Ihere was no larger single election crowd watch

the street was filled to the edge of City Hall Park.
and from that time on the spectators increased by
scores until the outer edge of the mob had
flowed into Broadway. where only the keenest eyed
had any hope of decipherng the largest Iettered
bulletin.
BY o'clock there were fully fifteen thousand peo-
pie watching the bulletins displayed from The Trfb-

successful efforts get within reading distance
Those that had been wise enough to station them
selves within sight of the best bulletins in the
city refused TO relinqush the vantage points. and
the others had to content themselves with such
news as was passed along by the crowd. to be con-
hrmed ten minutes by the bulletins along
Newspaper Row.
Soon after o'clock The Tribune had by It's
special arrangements made all over the country
obtained information enough announce positively
that Theodore Roosevelt had been elected. more
than fifteen minutes ahead of it's competitors
When this flashed by the huge stereopticon the
great crowd went mad with delight. Cheer after
cheer up for the President. hats were thrown
high into the air. and joyousy discordant salute
sounded by the mutitudinous horns. rattles
and growing machines. The omnipresent Il told

few minutes later The Tribune announced
that August Belmont had conceded the election
of Roosevelt by an overwhelming majority five
minutes after he had said 1t. and again the crowd
went crazy. The shouts died away in time TO be
succeeded Immediately by a howl of amusement
when the crowd told that Cord Meyer says
that Roosevelt's plurality is great that he

So great was the crowd that early in the evening

as might easily happen in such huge, over

present, who realized that the excellence of The
Trbunes bulletins would bring thousands 10 the
building, and who hoped to reap a harvest there
from. The police broke up their game by their yig
