PHILADELPHIA, FEB. 24.-"Don't
come near me. I've got hydrophia and
L would hurt you. 1 am going to die
and l know it."
This was the pathetic cry of 15-year-
old John Smith of 2704 East Somerset
street when any of the members ap-
preached him in his home. Following
out his prophecy, uttered in words of
agony, the boy died at the Pennsyl-
vania hospital with all the symptoms
of rabies.
Just before Christmas the boy was
slightly bitten on the cheek by a
shepherd dog while he was selling toys
on Frankford avenue, below Lehfgh.
AS the wound healed little more was
thought of it until one day last week,
when in q game Of football near his
home, the wound was reopened and
bled profusely. Monday morning the
boy went to his work in Cramps ship
yard, but returned home, complaining
of feeling sick.
Refused at One Hospital
The following morning he was feel
ing no better, and when he went to
wash the sight of the water seemed to
throw him into conVulsions. All day
he raved about the house, frequently
going INTO parOXySInS, dllHouBH ie d.
| ways seemed conscious of his sur
roundings and knew the other mem
bers of the family.
He craved for water, but at It's first
| taste would froth at the mouth and
would then allow no one but his father
to approach him.
He was taken to the Episcopal hospi-
| tai, but the doctors were unable to
treat the case. The boy was sent to the
Pennsylvania hospital, where it was
necessary to strap him In bed. He
struggled vainly to free himself and
went into convulsions. swapping and
barking like dog.
Father Hears of Boys Death
The last paroxsm came shortly after
o'clock yesterday morning and was
followed Immediately by his death. The
news of his sons death was not COM
municated to Mr.. Smith until he called
at the hospital in the afternoon, in the
hope of receiving News that the boy
was recovering.
| DR., r. V. Patterson the hospital ply
sician, IN his report to the coroner, re-
fused to state the cause of the patients
death, saying simply that the boy had

Mountain Climbers Experience.

The queen OF mountalneers, Mrs.
Bullock Workman, has added one
more thrilling experience to her rec
ord Of adventure by accompanying her
husband on his great climb of $4,000
feet in Kashmir. Mrs. Workman has
several times climbed over $1,000 feet
higher than any other woman in the
world. The rarefied air at these great
heights has considerable effect on her.
She finds it distressing to sleep at
night beyond an altitude of $4,000 feet.
The diminished pressure shortens her
breathing and she experiences severe
headaches. But, curiously enough, the
headache leaves her after $1,000 feet.

NOT VET A CENTURY OLD.
Railroading Has Had Bat Eighty
Years of Life.

We have yet two decades to wait
before we can celebrate the centen-
NAL anniversary Of the birth of the
railroad. 1t is wonderful record,
that 80 years of rapid transit devel'
opment. 1t has reVolutionized the
world, commercially, socially and in
tellectually. The Atlantic and Pacific
have become near nefghbors; the in
accessible and therefore valueless
plains of the west have been pene.
trated and brought into touch with
the markets of the world; New York
and Chicago, that in the pioneer days
were weeks away from one another,
are now but IS hours apart.
The railroad has entered Jerusa'
lem; it has pierced darkest Africa; it
is crossing the sounds of Sahara;
it scales the sides of Vesuvius; it
bridges many forbidden chasms and
tunnels through mountains and I'M
der rivers. The whistle of the loco.
motive is the voice Of progress! The
rails over which it runs arc the steel
bands that bind nations into great
commercial brotherhood.
The rapid development of the world
along every desirable line since the
locomotive became factor in human
affairs is all the argument necessary
to prove the railroad the greatest OF
all civilizing influences. A compar.
ison of the past so years with the
thousands of centuries preceding fur.
nish an eloquent proof of the far.
reaching, uplifting, industrial, ethical
and educational value OF the rail
