PlTCHFORKS FOR MAD DOGS. Farmers of Windham County to Pro.
 tect Stock in That Way.

Putnam, Feb 16.-Mad dogs have
 created no little excitement in this section of Windham county this week and farmers now have their pitch
 forks ready for all strange dogs that appear. A medium sized bulldog ran
 into Eastford town the other after
 noon and made things lively while he stayed. He bit COW in the nose owned by Le Lyon, and also bit a yearling belonging to George Wall ker. By this time the farmers were up in arms and looking for the dog,
 but he had left, heading for Chaplin. In Woodstock a mongrel cur was shot Tuesday by A. R. Scranton, jr, after it had bitten dogs owned by
 Messrs Young, Sheldon, Wells and Sanger The head of the dog was Wednesday sent to Cornell university by Selectman Frink. The owners of the dogs that have been attacked are uneasy now until they know the re- suit of the investigation as many of
 the dogs are valuable.

A NEW DILEMMA.
British Henley Stewards Up Against
Puzziing Proposition.

New York. Aug. ia rather ticklish
question presents itself to the stewards
of the Henley regatta just now, to
judge by the scraps of news that have
reached America from the Thames. A
rule has been adopted that for next
years ree ta no .1oreign entry win be
received, &nd it fsHndcrstood that it
will apply to the Belgians. who are
now holders of the Grand Challenge
cup But it is not stipulated whether
they will be allowed to hold the cup
until 1909.
Of course. it being Il perpetual chal-
lcnge trophy. the Bclgians will have
held it for one year by the time next
years regatta arrives. and the condi-
tons Of competition will be fulfilled
Some there are who think that the
Belgians should be exempted from the
rule and allowed to row at Henley.
That is, provided they care to send a
crew again to the Thames.
This year aSnuch interest has been
shown in the. junior octopede to be de-
cided at the Middle States regatta on

has it that there may be a crew or two
from Philadelphia, for this style Of
boating has taken on immensely in the
Quaker City since its scullers trounccd
the New Workers.
The only senior cight-oarcd crew a
for the Middle states is the
Bohcmians. With little or no coaching
they plough away daily showing plenty
pr strength and determination to lie
in the front at the finish. The New
York \. e. crew took a rest after the
national meet. 1t was badly wanted,
as the boys had been in strict training
since the early spring. Capt. Haubold
has not as vet decided what representa-
tion the club will have in the Middle

is the fact that the Pittsburg team has

games that have been played on only
one day-Friday. st. Louis cannot
show a day that they have won more
than they have lost. Thursday comes
the nearest to being a good day for
they have broken even with S tOS.
Washington is not particular how
they play on the week days, but they
want to show the politicians that they
can work on Sunday the same as the
rulers of the country can when they
have a little bit of politics to do.
Washington has played four games on
the first day of the week and won
three of them. but they have failed to
win the majority of any other day.

TO SETTLE CHAMPIONSHIP.
115 Players Will Begin Battle Today
For American Tennis Title.

The way is now clear for the UNI
ravellng of the national lawn tennis
championships. and for the next 1o
days beginning today. there will be
nothing else on the lawn tennis map.
With an entry Of 115 in the All-Comers'
the list is comprehensive enough. and
none of the starred class is missing.
The drawing promises splendid bat
ties all the way down the line, with
semi-finals of wonderfully high class
and consequent high class final. For
the semi-final round the top section
docs not weigh $" heavily as the 9TH
ers, ard no opponent there looks strong
enough to make Larncd move. The
lower half will produce i. G. Wright
and X II. Bchr, in prospect the tour
news most gorgeous battle. The finals
should re between Larncd and Wright
or Bchr.
As to the doubles title there seems
to ne a doubt as to Ward and Wright
making a defence. Why there should is
har1 10 consider. Ward and Wright
have repeatedly declared themselves
out. ana for that matter Wri~hts par
ticjnation in the Eastern doubles with
Little should be evidence enough that
the old pair was out of it.
