Owing to the widespread alarm over
dogs caused by the doings of the dog OF
Fred Marsh, the board of health has
issued an order that all dogs be kept
under restraint until further order. OF
the direct cases arising from the Marsh
dog, three dogs have died-those of Will
G. Shaw, DIR. L. w. Clough and Fl. g.
Barnes. In some cases cats have been
attacked by the dogs. NJ. A. Moody was
bitten by cat that be was attempting tc
chloroform. He had the wound cauter
lied, and it has not given him serious
trouble. There is considerable mystery
as to the name of the disease. It is re
ported that dogs in some of the surround
ing towns are dying in unusual numbers
A number of the dog fatalities seem to re
semble pneumonia. 1t does not seen
like hydrophobia.
