Cincinnati Millionaire Says
Rabies Story Started When
He Drank Whisky.

NEW YORK, May 4-William Cooper
Proctor, the mulit-milliOnaire SOAP
manufacturer. Of Cincinnati, is nct
mad He's just sore
When seen at the Hotel ST. Regis to-
day he denied that he had the rabies
or that he was the victor al a long
price yesterday in stirring race with
death" In proof Of his assertions, he
pointed out that he was occupying g.
suite at ST. Regis. This report stated
that Mr.. Proctor, who is a great fancier,
had been bitten by one of his pets, and
was rushing from Cincinnati 10 New
York to take treatment at the PasteUE
Institute.
1T made a pretty good story. as you
newspaper fellows say said Mr.
Proctor today. but il would have been
better If you made Il a snake bite.
The whole yarn started from a CincIn-
natl friend OF mine seeing me take a
drink Of whisky in a cafe. He knew
that one OF my dogs had scratched my
finger at play and jokingiy remarked
that he supposed 1 was trying 20 ward
of the rabies.
A Cincinnati newspaper man over
heard the remark, and the result was
that as l was coming into New York in
the best Of health and spirits, had the
extreme pleasure Of reading in an even
ing paper that 1 had been bitten by a
mad dog and was near death II was all

FROM ACHING HEAD

GLASGOW, Ky, May Airs. Bette
Davis, Of Coral Hill. Barren county. is
the victim of a malady which has puzzled
many physicians. In the case OF Mrs.
Davis a bursting headache" becomes a
reality. Mrs. Davis. who is seventy-two
years old. was attacked by a headache
OF exceptional severity, that lasted for
several days. She retired in a state of
nervous exhaustion.
Later member of the family went
into Mrs. Davis room TO see how she

sleeping peacefully, but that blood was
flowing from an aperture in the temple.

weak from loss of blood, Mrs. Davis
IS apparently in better condition than
before the breaking OF her temple and

General Castleman Sponsor
For Blue Grass Animal and
Writes War Department

Rising in defense of what he terms
Gods noblest beast. the Kentucky horse.
Gen. John b. Castleman has proposed TO
the War Department that ne may be al
lowed 10 OFFER one Of his famous Ken
lucky thorOughbreds to enter into com
petition against Homer Davenport
Arabian horse in the endurance test that
Is TO be made from the Pacific TO the
Atlantic coast.
This test, which was recently decided
upon by the War Department. on the
proposition of Mr.. Davenport, who is a
believer in the horse from the Arabian
desert, is being made with the view Of
improving the standard Of the American
army horse. The noted cartoonist ex-
pressed his belief that his horse, would
stand longer march than the average
hardened army animal now in the
Service.
Protest From Kentucky.
From Kentucky, the home Of beauti-
iui women, fine horses and good
whisky" came righteous protest. Gen
eral Castleman, who is a hero of the
civil war, former adjutant general OF the
State. could not sit idly by and not rise
in defense OF the blooded steeds from
the pastures Of blue grass.
In letter written to Secretary Taft, Of
the War Department. General Castleman
bitterly reSents the claims Of Mr.. Ddven-
port that the Arabian horse has Quali-
ties superior 70 any breed Of American
animals. Such a statement is not only
unpatriotic, according 10 the general,
but displays a lack of knowledge as well
as appreciation of the sterling worth Of
the real American horse, The Kahn
tuck thoroughbred. sub"
Secretary Taft took the subject up
with General Bell. Having the welfare
OF the army. particularly the cavalry,
