Dog That Bit Little
Tots Has the Rabies

The head of the dog which bit little
Jeanette Mehr, S years old, and her
baby sister Beatrice, l8 months old
Sunday afternoon, was recovered at
the dog pound Monday afternoon by
Police Surgeon Philbrick and DR..
Nicholas w. Wohl, pathologist and
bacteriologist, at the Nicholas Sem
hospital, who examined it and found
the dog to have been affected with
rabies. DR.. Wohl will give the chill
dren the Pasteur treatment as a pre-
caution.
DR.. Wohl says that it is unwise to
kill the dog which is suspected of
rabies. A better method is to oonfne
1t so that it can do no more harm
and observe it for four days. If at the
end of that time the animal is still
alive 1t is not affected with rabies.

Rockefeller Industrial Plan
Called Failure by McLennan

workman something which would
make them imagine they were being
organized. The plan is an unquali-
fled failure from every standpoint but
one. 1t has given the capitalistic
press agents chance to talk, write
and print.
THE real substance of this plan
is that the employer herds his men
together, keeps tab on each, tells
them when, where and how to meet;
attends their meetings ano overawes
them with his presenee. Meetings
purely of the men have no place in
the plan"
Referring to the effects of the re-
cent coal strike, President McLennan
says conditions have been improved,
but declares these improvements are
not due to the Rockefeller plan, but
the result of publicity gained during
the strike.

Miss O,Leary apparently knew
whereof she spoke when she referred
to the antipathy her poodles had for
feline society. No sooner had she
informed her questioner than who
should come along but Marie Know

kittens. Daddy" and Buster" the
poodles, lunged like pair Of lions
to get at the kittens.

Jean Storrie of 4406 South Nine
teenth street, about the size of a

men, probably being frightened by
the dogs and cats. When Jean drop
ped the hen the show was nearly

DROWNED MAN FROM KENosHA.
Man Taken from Lake at Chicago Had
"Check' from Hotel Fischer
in This City in Pocket.

The police of the city have been
asked to aid in the Identification of the
body Of man which was taken from
the lake at Chicago on Monday after
noon and which is now being held at
the morgue of the Western Casket
Company in Chicago. In the pockets
of the man were found check from
the Hotel Fischer here and also but
tonhook and bottle opener which bore
the advertisement of Maurice and
Wallig of this city. So far as can be
learned no one is missing from the list
of guests of the Hotel Fischer and the
police believe that the man found
drowned was some vagrant who picked
up these articles in passing through
Kenosha. 1t is probable that some en-
ployee of the hotel will be sent to Chi
cago this afternoon to make an effort
to identify the remains of the man.

Result of Work of Police and

The Fourth of July may be a ma

to the police of Kenosha and the depu-
ties of Sheriff Stahl. They were busy
on Monday night and Tuesday. There
were bloody fights in many parts Of

the way to celebrate the Fourth of
July was TO drink to excess and others
decided that burning up the roads with
an automobile was a good way to show
treir patriotism. These fellows all hit
the trail to the Municipal Court this
morning. The police had some twenty
five "cash customers" and some Of
them were considerably the worse for
wear. The sheriff had fifteen men,
mostly from other cities, who were
charged with speeding. Two men were
fined on charges of shooting revolvers
within the limits of the city. The court
room was filed to overlooking this
morning, but by ten O'Clock all the
cases had been disposed of and lot
Of money had been paid to the clerk in
fines and costs. No one was seriously
injured in any of the Fourth of July
battles and most Of the trouble
was due to too much liquor.
