DEATHS
TOBIAS ARTHUR CHINOOK.

Tobias Arthur Chinook, only son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Chinook,
died at his home on Cascade Avenue
in this city at o'clock last Friday
morning after an illness extending
over more than two months.
Tobias, or "Tobe," as he was
Familiarity known, was born in Cliff
ton Jan. 81, 1886, and had grown up
in this commanity, attending school
in the district schools and later in
the schools of this city, graduating
from the high school May 20 of this
year. AS boy and young man he
was genial and kindly, interested in
everything that pertained to his
work and that of his friends and
schoolmates, doing his full share in
whatever was to be done. His last
illness was long and painful, but
through it all he was cheerful and
patient. The news of his death
came as a distinct shock to his
friends and classmates, who, though
they knew that he was seriously i'll,
had not thought that the end was
so near.
The funeral was held at the Meth
odist church Sunday afternoon at 8
O'Clock, Rev. F. w. Harris officiat-
ing. The music at the funeral was
furnished by members of the class
with which lobe graduated from the
high school, while other members
of the class acted as pall-bearers.
The remains were laid to rest in
: Greenwood cemetery.
: Deceased is survived by his par
ents and one sister, Blanche, who
have the sincere sympathy of the
community in their bereavement.
Former students Of the River
Falls Normal School would hardly
recognize their alma mater so many
changes have been made the past
summer. The old board walk which
has done good service for so many
, years is a thing of the past and in
it's place there has been laid hand
some, substantial and broad cement
walk whose graceful lines add much
:. to the beauty of the Normal's APP
proaches. The exterior wood work
of the building has all been reprinted
and liberal supply of paint has
also been applied to the interior,
especially to the gymnasium which
has been entirely refnished. Sever
al thousand square feet of steel cell
, ing has been put up, and the wood
, fnishings of the hall have been
grained and fnished-quite an inn
; provement over the old dull-blue
paint. The result of the work on
the interior has been an additional
amount of light, besides the heater
appearance of the halls and rooms.
The assembly room has also been
beautifed by the purchase of bas-
relief which matches the one pre-
sented to the school by last year
class. The outlook is bright for
the best year the Normal has ever
had. The opening for the Fall Term
; takes place next Monday.

ably $4,000 stray dogs. Two hun
dred unlicensed dogs and cats are
being seized daily by the dog catch
ers, considerably more than were
seized last year during the same
period. In 1907, 108,619 dogs and

Rabies, or hydrophobia, is a dis
ease known far back in ancient
times. The first mention of it in
history was the death of Akteon, son
of Aristeus, which occurred about
thirteen centuries before the Christ
ian era. A detailed description of
the disease was given IN the first
century by Celsius and Coelius Au-
relianus, the former advising treat
ment by cauterization, and suctionand
also by immersing the patient in
cold water-a treatment which was
maintained in the Eighteenth CEN
fury. There was, however, no detail
ed description until Van Switen
wrote at length about it in his Com
mentaria. y
Today we know this about ra-
bies,' said DR.. Rambaud st can
be communicated only by an animal
affected with 1t, transmitted from an
imal to animal, and from animal to
man and sometimes from man to
man. There is only one country that
lis free from the disease and that
is Australia. The disease is general
ly communicated from the dog, al
though there are cases of persons
being infected by cats, horses, pigs,
Tats, skunks, wolves, foxes and
other animals. There have been var
ious estimates of the proportions of
persons who, having been bitten by
rabid animals, develop hydrophobia.
In France $50 case were tabulated
of which 500, or 466 per cent, were

There is more Catarrh In this sec
ton OF the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For great many years
doctors pronounced it local dis
ease and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced 1t incur
able. Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional
treatment HalRs Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitution
al cure on the market. 1t is taken in

fatal. The deeper the wound, as a
general rule, the greater the danger
of fatality. Bites on bare parts of
the body are also more dangerous,
and the nerve supply of the wound
ed part is also an important factor
in the mortality About 90 per cent
of bites on the face result fatally.
1t is generally through the saliva of
the rabid animal that the virus ap-
pears, and it has been found that
the virus may be present in the sa-
Iva OF the dog for three days before
any symptoms of rabies develop in
the animal. A case was reported of
person who died of hydrophobia
who had been bitten by a dog eight
days before the animal showed
symptoms of rabies. There is another
case of a dog having been bitten
by another dog thirteen days before
the animal which communicated the
disease showed any sign of rabies.
There are few cases in which the
disease has been transmitted from
man to man through the saliva and
there is well authenticated case in
which dog inoculated with all the
saliva of man who had hydropho-
bia died from the disease, while an
other dog inoculated with the same
saliva recovered There have been
other cases where animals inoculated
with the saliva of hydrophobic pat
tents have recovered"

What is the treatment for ra-
bies,' | asked
Wounds inflicted from rabid an
imals, or from animals supposed to
as any other infected wound Bleed
ing should be encouraged, as the
flow of blood may carry off the vi
rus. | am opposed to cauterization,
a treatment practiced since the first
century. 1t can never be relied upon,
although it has been demonstrated
destroy the virus. However, if the
wound can not be treated by cauter-
ization within an hour it is better
to treat it antiseptically Another
point against cauterization is that
1T gives a sense of security to the
patient"
when the first symptom of ra-
bies have appeared says Dr. Ram
baud, all that can be done is to
relieve the patients suffering as
much as possible. Amy exciting cause
of the spasm should be avoided
Hence the patient should be placed
in a darkened room free from
draught, and as far as possible re-
moved from any noise as possible
Visitors should not be allowed in
the room. During the stage of excite
ment, repeated doses of hyoscine
hydrombromate, in hyprodermic in
jections, should be given. Hyoscine
seems to be the most efficient drug
at our disposal for quieting rabic
patients. Choral and morphine have
little or no effect. Nutrient enemata
may be given; also normal salt So
luton to relieve thirst However, the
least the patient is disturbed the
better. The patients saliva should
be carefully selected and sterilized;
that the disease was caused by a
germ, but he was not able to isolate
all clothes contaminated with it
should be boiled or exposed to sun
light In the open air for several
days. During the paralytic stage,
whenever the ability to swallow re-
appears, fluid food may be given and
will usually prove agreeable to the
patient. Inasmueh as rabies may be
considered an invariable fatal dis
ease, its real treatment is necessar-
lily a preventive one.
The Waxahachie daily light. [volume] (Waxahachie, Tex.) 1894-current, 1908-08-21

This prevention is vaccination.
The virus is obtained by inoculating
rabbits. The Pasteur method is to
begin the vaccination with non-viru-
lent cords and gradually continue
with cords of stronger virulence I'M
til cords of full strength are used.
Thus Pasteur discovered the prin-
ciple of immunity that has since
been so successfully carried out in
microbic diseases. The Pasteur me-
thod is as follows: Rabbits are in
oculated with the virus and after
their death the spinal cord is remov-
ed, treated aseptically and placed
in sterilized flask in which there
Is some caustic potash. Air is freely
admitted to the flask and 1t is kept
in dark room with a temperature
of 70 Fareinheit. After twelve to
fourteen days the virulence of the
cords has so diminished that they
may be used for incubation This
was the treatment which was begun
in July, 1895, and has been contin-
ued with some variations. The length
of time OF the treatment depends
upon the severity of the case"
What Is the best way I asked
DR.. Rambaud, ITO prevent rabies?'
"The surest way said he, is to
have all dogs that run at large muz-
zled or kept in leash There are
only two ways that hydrophobia or
rabies can be transmitted: By inoc-
ulation or biting. In Europe all dogs
on the street are muzzled and the
good results from this system are
apparent"
When one considers the many
dogs running loose in New York, he
will readily understand the necessity
of the system Of muzzling suggested
by DR.. Rambaud. For instance, there
are about 100000 in the greater
city, and not more than $4,000 of
