Rabies appear to be epidemic in some
parts of the country. A- gentleman in Lon-
don who owns an extensive kennel des-
troyed two valuable bounds the other day
that exhibited symptoms of rabies. They
appeared to be drowsy and stupid and were
frothing at the mouth. From the fact that
these dogs were not exposed to hydrophobia
it would go to prove that it is not necessary
to bo bitten by a mad dog to develop the
disease.
Mr. James Wallis, of Blanshard, had a
miraculous escape from what might have
been a very serious, accident. He was
driving the mower when his deg pare
bounding through the long grass and jump-
ing in front of the knife had t,vo of its legs
cut off. One of his boys went to the house
to get a gun to put the poor animal out of
misery. On discharging the contents the
report started the horses throwing Mr.
Wallis off the mower and, luckily for him,
on the, opposite side of the knife.
