On Thursday last a phone message
came to town from Jacob Hager that
a mad dog was there, had bitten his
dog and one COW, but had made his
escape, and to watch out for him. In
to town the dog came, and bit some
other dogs, SO our men armed them
selves, and landed the mad beast in
Walter Justices yard where he had
gone about nine o'clock in the even
ing. After firing several shots in the
dark he was killed. We learn that a
little daughter of VIM. Sholders, liv-
ing on the Strickland farm, near the
Flood Gates, had been slightly bitten
by the same Scotch collie dog the
same day. Mr.. Hager killed his dog

Mr.. Sholder is having his daughter
treated, and we hope no serious re-
suits will develop.
