Unknown Owner Trying to Separate
CANNES, Attacked, tainted and
Had Purse Stolen

Special to The Herald

the jaws Of her own bulldog grinding
its teeth into her hand while she was
endeavoring to stop a fight between
two bull pups belonging 20 Mrs. Percy

dropped her purse and handkerchief.
Some sneak thief in the crowd, TAX
ing advantage of the opportunity of
the woman's condition, made away
with it, while the crowd stood gaping
at Tracy, the woman and the bulldog
dog.
Mrs. Blyth, owner of the two dogs
with which the other was fighting,
knew nothing about the accident She
was kept from the scene of the fight
by the crowd that flocked around the
three dogs. In the unknown woman's
effort to separate the dogs her own
turned upon her and fastened it's teeth
into her hand, grinding the flesh and
bone for fully two minutes. Tracy,
after one or two Intellectual efforts,
managed to get hold of the dogs
throat, but in doing so was himself
bitten badly on one of his hands.
The dog was choked almost into in
sensibility before his hold was weak
ened.
Tracy, as the woman was fainting,
helped to prevent her falling to the
sidewalk. and while the sneak thief
was pressing through the crowd with
the stolen property, the woman was
helped to the office of DR.. Allan WEIGH
Smith, in the Oregonan building,
where her wounds were dressed. DR..
Smith said that he did not know the
name of his patient, as he had not
taken the trouble to ask. The woman
requested that no mention of the mat
ter be made, and was driven to her
home in a carriage.

of Mule, Henry Sanchis, still another
Shawnee, claimed the wife and she
married him. Two children, Frank
Sanchis and Louisa, the wife of Sinio-

her wont so often. but she contracted
pneumonia from the trip and it killed
