CALIFORNIA IS
RABIES DANGER
Veterinarian Norgaard Tells Of
Conditions In Coast
State.

Territorial Veterinarian Norgaard. IN
n comprehensive report to the Board
of Agriculture and Forestry yesterday
had the following to say regarding
danger of rabies here:
In order to obtain reliable data In
regard to the prevalence OF rabies in
California, a communication was sent
to the Federal inspector in charge at
San Francisco, with request for all
Information at his disposal pertaining
to this subject. His reply has come
to hand and is herewith submitted for
perusal by the members of the board.
From this correspondence II will be
seen that the measures taken by the
board for the purpose of protecting
the Territory against the introduction
of rabies are more than justified by
the facts contained in this official COM
munication. Not less than nine human
lives have been sacrificed during the
present outbreak OF rabies in Califor-
mia, and II Is estimated by the direc-
tor of the State hygienic laboratory
at Berkeley, Cal, that not less than
1900 cases Of rabies among dogs and
other animals have occurred within
the State during the past two years.
ITO this he adds that the disease Is
rapidly spreading. and In my opinion
there can be no doubt that unless the
present regulations are effectively en-
forced II would be very simple mat
ter for the disease to gain entrance
here. In fact, have been Informed
that q dog that passed through here
on one of the steamers for the Orient
developed rabies before the steamer
reached Yokohama and bit his owner.
II this dog had been destined for this
port we would have had the disease
here, and II can only be hoped that
the same would have been recognized
In time to prevent the Infection OF the
Keeper or the spread OF tn disease to
other animals
From n communication signed by
the state veterinarian II II learned
that not less than eight laboratories
for the administration Of the Pasteur
treatment of persons who have been
bitten by rabid dogs. have been estab-
lished In various cities OF California,
among which may be mentioned Ber-
kelley. Los Angeles, Fresno, San Fran
! cisco and Sacramento. In case. there.
fore. the disease should gain entrance
here. bitten persons would be removed
only from six ~ twelve days from
treatment. dependent upon the depar-
| ture OF steamers, ....
But as one Of the human cases
OF hydrophobia mentioned in the cor
respondence developed the disease In
| fifteen days after having been bitten
| and before the Pasteur treatment was
little more than half finished. II will

A Bold Night Exploit.
On Sept. II 100 sailors from the
United States navy. led by John II.
Russell, boarded the Confederate pri-
vateer Judah, which lay at the old
United States navy yard on the east
of Fort Pickens. This daring action
was described by a Confederate wit
ness as follows:
About 3 o'clock In the morning Ave
launches containing about thirty men
each pulled across from Santa Rosa
island to the navy yard. a distance Of
about two miles. Each launch had In
It small howitzer on II pivot. Their
main object seems to have been to
burn the largest schooner OF our har-
Dor police. which was anchored near
the wharf They were led by an Of.
ficer with the courage of forty Numid-
ian lions, and their success was per-
feet. Under cover of the darkness,
silently, with mutiied oars, they ap-
preached the wharf and were not dis
covered until very near 1t. They then
pulled rapidly to the schooner and
grappled to her, when their leader
shouted Board her" Leading the way
himself. with n cutass in one hand
and blazing freball in the other, he
threw tho fambeau into the hold of
tho schooner, and, feeling sure she
was on fire, he ordered his men to
take their launches and pull for life,
as he said that shower of grape
would soon be rafting after them.
They pulled Off short distance, but
before going they sent back shower
OF grape from their howitzers direct

Late In the afternoon the hospital In

shells from Fort Pickens. General
Bragg claimed that tlie yellow flag was
flying and that the firing upon It was
u barbarous act. General Bragg also
mentioned the firing OF hot shot and
incendiary shells into the houses Of the
villages of Warrington and Woolsey.
Many houses were struck. Among the
buildings fired were two Catholic
churches. which were consumed. with
fifty other buildings. Colonel Brown,
the Federal commander, stated In his
report that the churches and the VII
lagos were Immediately in rear Of
some OF the Confederate batteries and
that It was impossible to spare them.
At the same time he declred that hot
shot and incendlary shells We're used
for the express purpose OF setting fire to
the buildings In the old United States
navy yard, even regretting that he did
not have on hand missiles that would
act with more certainty.

mortars, which continued to drop shots

The action OF the pod OF November
was brought ON by Colonel Harvey
Brown, acting In concert with Flag
onicer Mexican OF the navy. Seeing
that the Confederates were continual

mainland. they decided to make one
vigorous attempt TO silence Fort Me-
Rec. The warships were depended
upon for principal share of the work.
There were two of them, both Of the

largest, the Niagara, was a ship OF

BROTHER DENIES
STEALING MONEY
Sister Of Jacob Stinson Ac.
cuses Brother Of Mis-
appropraiting Fund

MONTESANO, Dec. 1.-Alleging
that her brother, Jacob Stinson, had
taken approximately $1,000 from a
cache under his house in which his
mother had hidden the money, and
that this money had been appropriate
ed for his own use, Mrs. F. M. Purdy
of Hoquiam caused her brother today
to be hailed into court to testify as to
where he got the money.
1t is alleged by Mrs. Purdy that
following the death of her mother,
who lived at the Stinson home, Jake
suddenly became flush with money,
and later Jake's daughter told Mrs
Purdy that her father had taken a
large sum Of money from under the
house and deposited it in the bank.
This money Stinson claims as his
own, saying he earned it and had 1t
under the corner of his home, Will.
his daughted today testified that 1t
was taken from . hole in the floor
of the house.
Mrs. Purdf says thvt the money
belonged to her mother and before
she died she told Jake of the hid.
ing place and he appropriated the
funds for his own use instead of d.
viding it among the three heirs. The
case will be given further investiga.
ton next Saturday before Judge Ma
son Irwin.
