Mad Dog Trouble.

A mad dog made its appearance on the
outskirts of Marlton week ago and the
result is that now two young colored men,
Fred Sharp, of EvesboIo, and Raymond
Forman, of Kresson, are taking treatment
at Pasteur Institute, New York City, for
hydrophobia.
From all accounts the dog came from
New Freedom, a small place between
Moorestown and Bridgeboro. 1t was
a yellowish shepherd dog and was first
seen in that section in the vicinity of Elm
wood road. The first place where the. dog
Is known to have shown signs of madness
was at the Joseph K. Evans farm occupied
by Frank A. Ellis, where 1t attacked Ray
mond Forman, who was husking corn.
In fighting off the dog heIwas severely
bitten on both hands and on the leg. The
dog then went toward the house aud bit a
pig, which Mr.. Ellis has since killed. The
dog was next heard from on the Lemuel
Tomlinson farm, where it came up to
William Smith and Joseph Elbertson.
Here it evidently had no spasm, for it
seemed to want to be friendly. They
chased 1t away. Next the dog appeared
on the Charles Heisler place and attacked
Fred Sharp. who was also husking corn.
He was badly bitten on the hand. Augustus
Heisler and Mr.. Witcraft got out of the
dogs way by climbing up a small tree.
The dog ran to the house and bit Mr.. Heis-
ler's shepherd dog. About this time
Alfred B. Middleton was coming through
the place with gun. He had been to the
mari holes looking for wild ducks. He
was hailed and told to shoot the dog at
once. This he managed to do alter some
difficulty to keep from being bitten him
Hoio hQ
shot the latter's dog. Both dogs were
buried.
The same evening both the bitten men
had their wounds cauterized and dressed.
The probability of the dog being mad
caused considerable agitation so late In
the evening DR.. B. K. Brick and Clayton
II. Brick, the former the Secretary of the
Board of Health dug up the dogs body
and expressed the head to the State Board
of Health at Trenton, after having been
In telephone communication with members
Of that body.
A meeting of the local Board of Health
was held at the Central Record Office
Tuesday night and, after considerable
discussion, it was decided to appropriate
1925 for treatment for the two victims at
Pasteur Institute, and travelling expenses.
The cost at the institute is 800 per patient,
and the treatment requires Is days time.
Dr. Brick took them to New York, leav-
| ing Marlton on the first train Wednesday.
Upon the return of DR.. Brick the same
evening he received word from Trenton
that the examination of the dogs head
showed sure signs of rabies. When this
was given out great satisfaction was ex
pressed on all sides on the proceedings
that had taken place in the effort to save
the bitten victims from the most dreaded
malady, hydrophobia. The farmer Of
New Freedom who owned the dog, and
was bitten, is also at the institute.

Theatres.
Chestnut STREET THEATRE.


'Toll Gate Inn, ian inspiring melodrama
of the stirring days of the Revolution. q
beautiful play entirely new to Philadel-
phia, will be given its premier local pro-
duction by the Orpheum Company at the
Chestnut street Theatre, Philadelphia,
this week. Although 1t has been several
years since Langdon Mccormick, the well.
known playwright, wrote Toll Gate Inn, !"
it was never presented In Philadelphia,
but in New York and elsewhere 1t met
with unqualified success, and Is to-day
looked upon as one of the few good dramas
which deal with the trying period OF TO.
Toll Gate Inn" Is not exactly a war play;
on the contrary. it is more of pastoral
drama, and yet throughout its scenes there
runs a spirit of warfare which lends to
the action of the play keen and intense
interest The scenes of the drama are
laid In Vermont, in the picturesque regions
of the Green Mountains, where Ethan
Allen and his brave boys held forth, and
where General Stark hailed from.
Next week the play at the Chestnut
Street Theatre will be my Wife," de-
lightful farce-comedy, and is the same In
which John Drew scored such a success
in Philadelphia last year, and 1t will be
an exact reproduction of Mr.. Drew's pre-
sentation. 1t is spicy comedy, without
any offensive situations. The Chestnut
street theatre is quite favorite place
with Burlington county people.

Desperate Assault.

| The police are looking for William r.
Shepperd, of Philadelphia, who, on Sat
urday night. made savage attack on
Mrs Helena Painter, of Beverly. and
would probably have murdered her had
it not been for the bravery of her 12-year-
old daughter Elva.
Mrs. Painter. since the death of her
husband from burns received by falling in
fit against stove, two years ago, has
successfully conducted news depot. She
was In the sitting room of her home when
the man entered. She recognized him at
once as Shepherd, who had been poster
ing her with his attentions and demand
ing that she marry him. AS soon as he
discovered that the store was empty and
that the widow was alone he sprang upon
her dercely, grasping her by the throat
and forcing her against wall. She strug
gled so hard that she finally broke from
the fellows grasp, but he grabbed her by
the wrists and Kissed in her face:
You shall marry me; I'll kill you be-
fore you marry anotherl'
Mrs. Painter repulsed him and shouted
for help. Her cries were heard by the
brave little girl, who was upstairs dress
ing. Fastening down she seized broom,
jumped upon chair and pounded the
man on the head. He only frightened his
grip on the helpless woman and blood be-
gan to flow from cuts made by his finger
nails. While the little girl continued to
belabor him her mother exerted all her
strength and finally broke away. Spring
ing to her desk she got revolver she
keeps there and faced the man as he was
about to spring upon her again. She told
him she would Kill him if he advanced
another step.
Not knowing that the weapon was I'M
loaded and useless the fellow hesitated.
He had dropped his hat and coat during
the struggle, and not stopping to regain
them he rushed out of the place, boarded
trolley Car which happened to be pass
ing and got away.
Mayor Roberts sent word to Camden
and all along the line, giving description
of the man, but when the Car had reached
Camden he had disappeared
Mrs. Painter says Shepperd came to her
soon after the death of her husband,
claiming to be stone cutter aud suggest
ed the erection OF a stone over her hus-
bands grave. She says he was soon max
ing ardent love to her, but that she meyer
gave him the slightest encouragement.
She had repeatedly warned him to keep
away from the house.
