]' P ABOUT MAD DOGS. BOW THEY GET THE HORRIBLE 9E'*' DISEASE V / mr How Yon Can Get It Yourself nud What to Do Quick?The Pasteur Treatment. People should avoid handling do?s at all times, but more especially during the warm summer, as a dog's saliva may be full of germs of rabies several days before It "goes mad" with that disease. It is enough If he licks your hand or your face, and the skin Is broken previously so that the germs find entrance to the circulation. Itlght here, too mtich emphasis cannot be placed on the absurdity of the old superstitutiou that if the dog that bites you should, at some future time,have rabies, you?although never ngain bitten?would have to die of that disease! In the case of your pet dog, if he la morose and sullen there may be a possibility that he is In the early atuges of rabies. It has been demonstrated as a fallacy that rabid dogs dread the sight of water. It is only human beings in that conditio^ who go into convulsions at the sight of water. A rabid dog Is thirsty. He would like to drink, but on attempting to do so his throat contracts owing to the paralysis of its muscles that Is characteristic of the disease. If your dog approaches eagerly when you offer him water, puts his tongue to it but cannot swallow, and perhaps gags, has convulsions and froths at the mouth, then you had better have him ut or.co examined for rabies?being, of course, extremely careful to allow none of his salive to careful to allow none of his saliva to Human beings afflicted with the disease, being u ore ?ensutivo. more imaginative and apprehensive, are thrown int'* convulsions at the mere "sight of water?especially water from a tap suddenly turned on. Antlcipating the act of drinking, the throat paralysis asserts itself and the whole Infected nervous system is couvulsed. i IIU iniui lie IIIITCUIIIK |MilCL' Ol I 111* gerins of rabies is the nerve centres. The original germs travel from the point of infection through the circulation, Infecting all the nerves of the body and bosleging^as they multiply, the spinal cord and the nerve centres of the brain. As the disease progresses there is more and more paralysis of all the nerves and muscles. That of the . - throat is particularly noticeable because of the difficulty of swallowing. But quite early there are Jerky motions of the legs in walking, nud of the arms when they they are used. Applicants for treatment at the Pasteur Institute in New York who show these signs on entering are immediately subjected to other tests. Sometlmos the Pasteur physicians will blow a breath of air suddenly in the patient's direction. Even that slight, sudden draught of air has been known to throw an applicant for treatment into convulsions. A certain patient who complained of thirst, but could take no water, suggested an experiment to 0110 of the nurses. She divided a peeled orange into small bits. One of these she offered to him. lie opened hts mouth to receive it, but the moment the moist object touched his lips his teeth closed with a snap. It was a signal from the paralyzed throat. In addition to the indications refered to, the eyes of rabies patients are enlarged and have a look of anxiety, sometimes of terror. Wherever there are nerves to actuate muscles the disease shows itself. Infection with rabies is most dangerous where the nerves are nearest the surface. Communication to the spinal cord and brain is then quicker. When the face is the point of infection, mortality is 80 per cent.; hands and arm, 60 per cent.; the lower extremilltles, 3 0 per cent. Infection at the ends of the fingers Is also particularly unfortunate, owing to the centering of nerves there directly beneath the skin. Don't place any reliance on that hoary "madstone" superstltution. The most approved "madstone" *tre figrous balls composed mostly of hair, ejected from the stomach of a horse or cow, or other hair-covered animal that scratches itself with its tongue. Naturally, this Herons mass will stick to a moist wound?but It Is no more efficacious in removing germs of Infection tha'n a piece of blotting paper. * \ " , The characteristic manifestations of rabies are found in the large nerve cells, principally of the brain. They are crimson colored bodies in those cells, which are never found except where rabies is well developed. This discovery was made known to the medical world In 1903 by Negri, <K me university or ravia, Italy and name has been given to the little crimson spots which the autopsy discovers in the nerve cells of victims of rabies, now known to medical science as "Negri bodies." Ixmg before this, in 1885, Pasteur recoftniaed rabies as it germ disease and advocated the preventive serum treatment with which the name is Identified. One year later the original Pasteur Institute was opened in ParlB. From that time until 1905. inclusive, 29,201 persons had been treated at this institute. The success of the treatment was remarkable, after the preparation of the serum and its administration had been reduced to a system. Mortality from the disease was reduced from 94 per cent during the flrst year to 18 per cent In 1902. During that period Pasteur institutes for the treatment of rallies were established in most of the large cities of the United States. At the present time the mortality in cases treated at the New Yor? institute has been reduced to 5 per cent?deducting cases where the patient's nervous system before applying for treatment bed become so permeated with germs . i..

Standing in the doorway of his church at Salisbury. Mo., shuking hands with the departing meinl>er8 of his congregation, the Rev. Father Joseph F. Lubeley was twice Btahhed by Joseph Schuette, a prosperous j farmer nnd one of the most promin ent members of his congregation. One of the knife thrusts made a deep wound in the priest's temple und the other cut his neck less than a half inch from the jugular vein. The ] priest was hurried to a hospital where it was stated he has a fighting chance for recovery. Created a Panic. The stabbing of the priest caused a panic among the men and womeu who were filing out of the church, as practically all of them knew Schuette and the members of his family, who were standing close by when the farmer whipped out his loAg knife. His wife and five children reached the door in time to see a dozen men sitting on the raving man, trying to subdue him. It is evident that the farmer became suddenly insane, as he had no reason for his attack on the r.i'est, and in addition had been acting queerly for a few days previous. , The police of Salisbury also rre convinced Schuette is insane. He has been raving almost constantly since he was locked up. Later he was sent to a sanitarium until he recovers his reason. Attacked From llcltind. The priest had finished his mass and had walked to the door of the church to shake hands witlj the members of his parish as they left, the building. There were about 400 worshipers present and they were headed toward the door in small groups. Father Lubley was shaking hands with a woman when Schuette came up from behind. In his hand there was a sharp knife and just as the priest dropped the hand of the woman he felt a sharp cut on the forehead. With an exclamation of pain Father Lubley turned around and as he did so the knife made a deep wound in his neck. The priest, reeled and fell to the floor, blood streaming from his wounds. The members of the congregation seemed stunned for a moment and then women screamed hysterically und rushed hastily to the street. Most of the men also seemed bewildered. but about a dozen of the worshipers grappled with Schuette. He struck out wildly with his knife and cut the hand of Mrs. Barbara Binter, who was trying to pass through the door. John Gates, one of those who overpowered the farmer, was slashed on the elbow. Schuette was one of the wealthiest farmers of Salisbury. Oue of his daughters was a chum of Father Lubeley's cousin, who lived with the priest. The two young women visit, ed each other frequently, and Father Luheley also dined often in the home of the man who stabbed him. I'ltEACilKIt PLEADS (il lLTV. Unfrocked Minister Used the Unite*!

It is prepared in the laboratories of the health departments of most of the large cities. The serum is obtained from rnbbitR which have died after being inoculated with the fixed virus of the disease. Their death occurs in from six to seven days. Their spinal cords, which contain the death-dealing germs, are removed and dried in bell jars over sodium hvdrHto fur fif teeu days. This render t lie cord harmless. It Is then crushed into powder and emulsified In n normal salt solution, and is ready for use as hypodermic injections in the first stage of the treatment. The subsequent injections are made with serum from cords that have been dried fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine days and so on. Finally, an emulsion of a cord dried only three days, which practically all its virulence, is injected under the patient's skin, his ?ystem being now practically immuine to the rabies germs. These injections are made daily for a period covering fifteen to twenty-one days..

The charge that the New York Cotton Exchange Is a gambtit"; institution and not a mercantile exchange is practically sustained in the reuort submitted to President Roosevelt by Commissioner of Corporation Herbert Knox Smith, just made public. Mr. Smith's report is based on an exhaustive investigation begun shortly after the adoption by the House of a resolution introduced by Representatives Ilurleson and Livingston on February 4. 1907. That resolution was aimed to ascertain why the contracts sold on the New York and New Orleans exchanges brought about such violent fluctuations in the psice of cotton, and also to leern whether the members of the exchanges, by combining among themselves, brought about depression in prices because, under the terms of the contracts, they could deliver any one of thirty grades of coton. The charges, which sem to be upheld, in part at least, by Mr. Smith, include the following: "That New York City has ceased to be a commercial spot cotton market, and that the New York Cotton Exchange, operating under its present debased and fraudulent contracts, has developed into a purely speculative or gambling exchange, and that the grades of cotton shipped to New York and tenderable on the contracts under the rules of the New York Cotton Exchange cannot be used for commercial spinning purposes, and that such grades of cotton are used solely to depress the price of spinnble grades in the South, to further the speculative features of the New York Cottpn Exchange, to the heavy detriment of the entire legitimate cotton trade of the United States." The care with which Mr. Smith mollllies his findings seems to have been forcasted by Representative Lbirleson, who, in a leter to Mr. Jordan on April 30, this year, wrote : "I do not believe thut the President has any idea of making recommendations along the line on which I think legislation should be had. The report from the Bureau of Corporations on the resolution wrlten and introduced by me has not yet been sent to the House. I understand it is in the hands of the President, and that he is holding it. for som purpose. On Saturday I had adopted a resolution introduced by me, directing that said report be sent to the Congress at once. "Recently the Secretary of Commerce and Labor gave out an interview, in which he stated that the President was not oposed to the legitimrte cotton exchanges, but was opposed to bucket shops, etc. I, too, am opposed to bucket shops, but the injury to the cotton producer co nine from bucket shop operations is nil compared with the great hurt which is done him l:y operation on the socailed legitimate cotton exchanges." Mr. Smith in his report indicates that he vi'i have much more to ray later on. What he gave oat for publication today was two parts?dealing with cotton exchange methods of clasflcat'.oo of cotton and with the range of contract gjades. Subsequent parts, he says, will take up the effects of exchange ri If * and other conditi.-ns upon the price. In the report made public he says: "So far as spinners are concerned, the i ractical certainty of receiving sevei at diffeient kinds of cotton on one contract makes it impossible for for them to buy their coton on the exchanges. ' I no contract must be broad enotign to induce general 'raring thereon, and thus furnish the broad market necessary to fulfil the true functions of an exchange. There is ih> reus* liable obligation, however, to take care of that part of the. crop which is for most purposes unsplniiablc. and the a.'mission ot very low grades of such unmerchantable or linspinnable cotton into the exchange stmks c rf ales :<evc at evils. The effect of such cotton is to depress the price of future contracts, and this tends to affect unfavorably the value of the entire crop, the groat bulk of which Is of much beter quality. "The investigation has shown that in: ny extreme charges regarding the stock of cottoir at New York can not l?e fully sustained. "A prevailing impression that many thousands of hales of coton in the New ork market have 1>? -it carried for many years, until the stock is litle more than an accumulation of n.bl ish, is disproved hy the fact that the entire stock at New York has on several occasions in recent yearF been reduced to a vry smalt quantity. Thus, in October, lf?00, the total certificate stock was very only a trifle over 5.0 hiiles, and as recently as September, 1904, it was only 15,ti00 bales. At the latter date a com sidcrnble pail of the stock was apparently of fairly high grade. Con seqiiontly It is certain Jhat the i?nou"t rf ?-ery low grade cotton carried ove in New York for any ccnsidei Able poilod of years can not he extremely large. On the other hand there is some cotton which has thus been en; led over front year to year. "Tbo president of the New York Cotton Exchange in November, 1!)00. stated to the revision committee that some cotton hod been in the New York stock for f-oir years, and that the reason it had not been purchased for consumption was that it was of such poor quality as to be undesirable at the grade difference then existing. "While extreme charges against the grading of cotton at New York undoubtedly exaggerated actual conditions, nevertheless it is certain that sorJous overciassiflontion has frequently occurred in that market. "Not only has cotton really below PPRUK * ' C*** ' J# SHUN BUND TIGERS. THE POISON THEY SELL WILL J KILL YOU. A Lot of BUml Tiger Stuff Seized in ! Anderson County Proved to I>e a Vile Concoction.

( It is true that when properly tested ] it could not be termed such, yet it was sufficient to convict 28 men in < the court of general sessions, and > there remains yet pleuty more for i introduction as exhibits in the 40-odd ' eases continued. i Constable J. R. Faut, who hns been in direct charge of the crusade against the illegal sale of whiskey In Ander- < son county, which has been in progress during the past four mouths, i has the key to this trunk. He opened it recently and there disclosed 80 or 85 bottles?bottles of all i kinds and sizes and descriptions; three-cornered bottles, square bot- i ties; the old flask kind, etc. And < every one of them had some liquor In it. A Constable Fant, Sheriff Green and the other officers have been making tests of all this booze, and it will be surprising to many to know that the whole caboodle does not average 2 5 per cent, alcohol. The men who bought and entered this liquor for market, certainly had eyes for business?they had regular gold mines. Here is how they made* their money: Twelve quarts of corn whlslcey. at $1.50 gallon, would cost $4.50. In some cases, according to the tests, the doctoring of 12 quarts resulted in 72 quarts. These 72 quarts were retailed at $1.25 a quart. In other words, the retailer reecivcd $00 for some doctored stuff which had cost him $4.50. Despite the fact that the stuff was hadly doctored, the retailers found ready purchasers at these exorhitant prices. An analysis of some of the booze held by Constable Fant discloses the fact that soapsuds, tobacco juice, pepper, etc.. were mixed with the water and whiskey to retain the proper taste, color, etc., after being diluted. the standard prescribed for contract d-ltvery teen ceitifled at New York, nut such cotton was for a ti.'.xe virtually forced into the New York stock in pursuance of a ruling of the Board of Appeals of the New York Cotton Exchange, one of the highest committees of the exchange, and against the judgement of members of the Classification Committe. "This certification of cotton actually below tenderable grade is especially Important because it was not due to the carelessnss of the Classification, Committee, or to the dishonesty of linv individual pnmlnvp lmt the exprer: ion of a deliberate policy of one of the highest committees of tho exchange, which should have taken every precaution to protect the intergrlty of tho contract. "Members of the New York Cotton Exchange have also attempted to excuse this extraordinary ruling of the board of appeals on the ground that only a few hundred bales ofrejctahle cotton were thus deliberately allowed to go into the certificated stock. They have further attempted to defend he classification of the exchange generally on the ground that the amount of certificated cotton, which was ically below tenderable grade, or even the amount which, although tenderable, is of exceptionally low grade, is but a small percentage of the total certificated stock. They argue that the buyer' of a future contract would therefore be indlffer nt to the possibility of receiving some of this action. "Tbic argument is so absurd as ha'dly to call for discussion. It would be about as logical for a man to say that he would be willing to standup before a squad of soldiers to be shot at simply because only a portion of the guns were loaded. Such rotten would unquestionably exert an influence upon the buyer out of all proportion to its actual amount r-Tuttve to the toi&J stock, been ts"? he must take whatever the seller chooses to tender him. When the management of the New York Cotton Exchange came into ofilce, in June, 1907 this practice of accepting cotton under the ruling of the board of appeals was promptly stopped.
