WAR GAINST MAD DOCS.
JntroduecH Bill to Enforce Collection
of License Tax.
, ? , ? a?
Columbia, Feb. 6. ? Occasionally
Col. Alan Johnstone, of Newberry,
introduces a# bill, sort of a rare oc
currence. He generally ? knows al|
about the pet measures of other sen
ators, but his name is seldom put
down in the journals as an author.
He hn:> introduced a bill which of it
Kelf should attract favorabletattention,
but the fact that ho fathers it 'indi
cates that it is a matter of impor
tance.
It is a bill to enforce the collection
of tho license tax on dogs and to com
pel the vaccination of dogs, for the
prevention of rabies. There were 272
persons treated at the state laboratory
at the university last year because of
having been bitten by dogs suspected
of having rabies. How much more
economical it would be to cut off the
source of supply of rabid dogs? That
is the commercial way of looking at
this proposition. Dogs can be inocula
ted successfully against rabies.
In Columbia last week there haves
been two "mad-dog" scares. Twenty
five dogs are known to have been bit
ten in Shandon by one dog that was
killed and its brain showed that it was
infected.
Sumter Pinches "Gypsies."
Automobiles 01 gypsum recently vis
itejj Lancaster and the vari-colored
dresses of trfb women attracted consid
erable attention on the streets. This
bunch or another one, got into trouble
here because of attempts to "tell for
tunds" or turn some "tricks of the
trade", which generally means petit
larceny, when the backs of their pa
trons are turned. In Sumter they
foupd themselves in the clutchcs of
the TftW, as the following story from
Sumter Daily Item relates: "A cara
van of six automobiles loaded with
gypsies, their families and all of their
belongings passed through town this
morning but stopped long enough to
invade and rob the store of L. A.
Welch at the corner of Liberty and
Purdy streets. However, four of the
six cars were stopped near the city
limits and the gypsies brought back
to town by Motorcycle Policeman Dol
lard. In the recorder's court the fou?
men were tried and found gvjilty of
vagrancy and also made to pay back
the money which they had secured
from Mr. Welch's store. It seems
that while some of the gypsies sur
rounded Mr. Welch to tell his fortune,
others went behind Mhe courtfer and
raided the cash drawer, taking all the
money it contained. When fined the
gypsies protested that they had no
, money, but when told they would be
locked up, if they did not produce the
coin, they went into their shoes, took
money from their hats, out of their
belts and other places producing coins
and bills of all denominations. Ten
dollars each was paid by the four nien
and fifteen ? dollars additional to Mr.
Welch. ? In the car were women and
children aged apparently from two
weeks to a hundred years. Each car
was rigged out to carry camping
equipment and practically everything
else a family might need. The cars,
all good ones, a Packard, Hudson,
Dodge, Jeffrey and other well known
makes, no Fords being present, were
escorted to the city limits and urged
not to tarr>% in the county, and as they
would be run in again, if caught be
fore they tfot out of the county."
$25,000 Damages Awarded.
Columbia. Feb. 7.? The Supreme
Court today handed down a decision
by which (he estate of J. F. Kirkland
gets a verdict of $25,000 damages
against the Southern Railway for the '
death of Kirkland which occurred at1
Suniter. A post was being put up
close to the track to support ? pipe
carrying water to locomotives. Kirk
land remarked that this would be a
death trap, referring to the water
collecting there. The next day he was
knocked down from the side of n box
car and killed. His estate sued for
$60,000 and the jury awarded $.'*5,000.
This was cut down by the jtidpe to
525,000.
Rev. Father Hubert E. Dahme. pas- j
tcr of St. Joseph's German Catholic
church of Rridffeport, Conn., was as
sassinated as he walked through the
streets of that city Monday night. The
assassin escaped and the police are
without a clue as to the cause of the
shooting.
Eli Everett, 65, shot his wife, 23, to
death And then committed suicide at
their home at Stroud?burg, Pa.. Tuca
day morning, They -had been retried
