RABID DOGATMEPFORD
Boston Terrier Owned by Mrs. Bob
FitzMimmons Brings Disease
From Portland.
Mall Tribune: A Boston terrier
belonging to Mrs. Bob Fltzsimmons,
wife of the pugilist, who is filling a
theatrical engagement here, wa
killed Friday by Dr. J. L. Helms, city
veterinarian, after observation had
convinced him that it was afflicted
with rabies.
The animal, which was highly
pedigreed and a valuable animal.
was brought down with the troupe
from Portland Wednesday. Thursday
it began snapping at people and
showing other suspicious symptoms.
Dr. Helms was called, confined the
dog, found it suffering from rabies
and killed it.
This is the first case of rabies in
southern Oregon. The dog had
been kept in the rear of one of the
hotels and so far as known had not
bitten any other animal. The infec
tion probably occurred in Portland,
where two men died this week from
rabies and several dogs have been
found afflicted.
Mayor Elfert at once ordered that
all dogs in the city be kept muzzled
or tied up at home, as it is not
known whether the affected animal
bit other dogs or not.
In view of the fact that it is easy
for the disease to be carried from
one city to another as shown above,
it would be wiser to order all dogs
in Ashland either confined or muz
zled. It Is better to be safe than
sorry.
Star Theatre "The Two Merchants"
Competition is the life of trade in
rural communities as well as larger
states, but in the small towns busi
ness In competition is often fraught
with many petty jealousies and rival
ry. Merchants are aften at dagger's
points with each other, will hardly
speak, and in a trade will often take
advantage of each other; but let an
outsider put in his appearance and
the whole village, rivals and all
hands, are against, the Philistine.
, Ebenezer Burke and Jeremiah
Briggs are in the same line of busi
ness in the small city of Bedford.
Julia Burke has become fascinated
with a traveling salesman and she
receives court from him against her
father's wishes. They plan an elope
ment, but their plan is frustrated by
Briggs, who asserts that it is his
business to protect her even if he is
her-father's rival.
While out driving with his family,
Briggs sees the salesman waiting in
a secluded spot with a buggy. Be
coming suspicious at once, he stops
and watches him. He soon sees Julia
coming with a suitcase and his sus
picions are confirmed. Jumping out
of his carriage, he rushes over to the
buggy and seizes the girl. The sales
man attempts to interfere but Briggs
thrusts him aside and Julia is taken
back h6me in the Briggs equipage,
dissolved in tears.
Burke is wild with rage at this
interference on the part of his rival
and he decides that the meddlesome
old codger has gone.too far entirely.
Early next morning Burke is at his
store, waiting for the appearance of
Briggs. When he arrives the climax
is reached. Into the back yard of
Briggs' store they go and fight it out
in true country style. Both "wind
ed,", they realize that they are a
couple of old fools and a reconcilia
tion takes place. They join hands
and fight the appearance of a new
store.
The several characters drawn In
this are delightful and true to na
ture, and no doubt will be appreci
ated by all who are acquainted with
life In our smaller country towns.
