CHARLESTON. Jan. 22.-The
Democratic caucus last night fulfill
<ed all expectations. For three
three hours It was crowded into
little room with the anxious specta-
tors bundled in groups in the cold
outside.
The McGraw and Chiffon follow
sers battled in vain for supremacy.
In the main it was Chiffon VIC
tory. for to use the words of their
premier voter. Littlepage, they were
opposed to "one man having every
thing all the time"
Col. John T. McGraw was NOM
mated by Senator Jake Fisher, SEN
sator Campbell. A. e. Kenney and
Senator Hall seconding.
s.a Senator Littlepage. in an eloquent
+ address, named the leader of the
new deal, naming W. E. Chiffon.
Senator Kidd, in. a Characteristic
speech. seconded Chiffon, as did
Hager, of Boone. and Preston, of
Greenbrier.
For six ballots McGraw got IA,
sFChilton 10 and four were scattering,
Senator Kidd, Mayor Leonard, John
J. cornweli, Andy Edminston and
Others being complimentary.
The McGraw followers, realizing
their defeat. went to John j. Corn
well, who was neutral and no con-
testant.
French Hays was the only McGraw
man who refused to be switched and
he went to Chiffon.
Finally on the ninth ballot there
was scattering in the solid field and
the empty honor went to cornwell.
McGraw has been leader of the
State Democrats many years and his
defeat by the Chiffon gang is signifi-
cant. While Chiffon did not win
the caucus nomination himself, it
was long and bitter contest.
Factional feeling among the Dem
ocrats is more bitter than ever.

Painting the EIfeI lower.


The contract for painting the Eiffel
tower at Paris has just been given
out. This Is the fourth time since it's
erection In 1889 that this huge mass
of steel has been painted. The work
will occupy forty painters for three
months, and the cost is estimated az
$4,000. The tower will once again
change its color. When first erected
it was painted orange. then red, and
just now 1t is yellow. This year it
will be parti-colored. FROM the third
platform to the summit it will he

fact that so much money is TO be

A person experienced with dogs can
diagnose a case OF rabies at sight.
ANY one who is familiar with dogs
can tell a case of rabies with consid
cradle accuracy. There are two forms
OF dhyrophobia, the furious form and
the dumb, or paralytic. form. The
second form is the mora common and
at The same time the less dangerous.
Logs suffering from this second form
are not likely to run far before the

making it impossible for them to
bite and rendering them practically

when this comes Ii contact with am
open wound that infection takes
place.
The first symptom displayed by a
mad dog is change in the animals
disposition. The dogs temper seems
to be completely reVersed-an affec-
tionate animal becomes cross ana
snappy, while AN ordinarily cross dog
grows remarkably affectionata A.

Gated by a peculiar bark, which an
expert readily recognizes. The bark
is aprolonged howl, which is kept up
endlessly.
In the most advanced stages when
dog becomes dangerous he runs
about swapping at everything in sight.
A mad dog does not fight with other
dogs. He runs wildly and nips them
as he passes, rarely stopping for a
momenr, He continues this aimIess
run until he is paralyzed Or falls
from exhaustion. There is a great,
distinct difference between dog suf-
feriDg from rabies and one suffering
from commissions. In most cases a
dog which runs wild, biting and
snarling, is in no sense mad. It Is
not generally known that the bite
OF mad dog increases in danger ac-
cording to its nearness to the brain.
A bite in the face is much more dan
gerous, therefore, than one ON the
hand or foot and the danger is greatly
increased.

The Mad Dog Some Cherished Alb !.
surdities About Him.

Let any one suddenly raise the
cry Mad dog!" in the streets and the
average man, woman or child IS
struck with panic terror. The sight
of a dog merely running with his
tongue hanging out is usually enough
to start riot, while a little foam at
the dogs mouth viii drive crowd to
frenzy. There are few diseases sin
man or animal SO much misunder-
stood as hydrophobia. The public Is
wrong, or nearly so, In its judgment
of these symptoms. Foaming at the
mouth, Tor instance, is not a symp-
tom of rabies; hot weather has no eff
feet On dogs, mad or otherwise,
while many other popular ideas of
the disease are equally absurd, DR..
Roscoe R. Bell, D. v. s., president of
the Veterinary Medical Association
Of New York, a recognized authority
on hydrophobia, throws an entirely
new light upon this much misunder-
stood disease.
That the disease actually exists,
there can be 40 question. DR.. Bell
maintains, and often in a virulent
form. Hydrophobia, it is not gem
orally known, has been the subject OF
an immense amount of investigation
and experiment. The best medical
thought, both in America and in
Europe, has come to the conclusion
that the disease, though much misun-
derstood, is a common menace. The
disease has been reproduced repeat
eddy in the laboratories by treating
the brain of mad dog. The serum
has been actually cultivated.
Despite the very common, almost
universal, opinion to the contrary,
heat does not drive dogs mad. There
are no more mad in summer tnan in
winter. The fact that more people
are bitten in the summer time than
in the winter is simply due to the
fact that in warm weather dogs run
about more freely than in winter,
when they seek shelter. More people
are, therefore, bitten in the summer
season. The hot weather is likely
to make dogs cross and ugly, and in
running about they are, of course,
likely to bite people, but the chance
that such dogs are mad, in the sense
that they have rabies, is very remote.
The appearance of dogs in hot
weather, When they run with their
tongues out or with froth at their
mouth, deceives many people into
thinking they are mad, when, as a
matter of fact they are merely tired
or overheated.
A mad dog does not bite, contrary
to the general opinion. He merely
nips at one, usually scarcely more
than breaking the skin. Such break
L the skin is. of course. quite enough
to. introduc, the dangerous germs.
