A case of hyelroibobla ln a horse developed Friday, and yesterday he was shot by Dr. J. C. Carter to put him out of his misery. The horse was owned by the Williams brick and stone company, cf Hazelwood.
and was 17 years old. About four months ago he was bitten by a dog, but showed no signs of rabies and has been working steadily ever since. While hauling stone Friday afternoon he suddenly was taken with the dreaded disease and bit at everything he could reach. With the aid of two men, the driver got him to the barn and he was ptit in a box stall. The mouth and nose were swollen, and he made a noise like a dog when growling.
He bit himself terribly, ami the sides of the stall were ail torn by his teeth. A bucket of water was set before him, but he could not drink it, as the throat muacles were swollen tight. Humane Agent T. M. Porter was sent for to shoot the animal, but he suffered so much that he was shot before the agent arrived.
The case of a horse having rabies Is very rare. City Physician E. G.JIatson got the animal's brain and took it to his laboratory. Some time this week he will inoculate several guinea pigs with tho virus. llroWe HI" Hip.

Unless the woman is t-trong and healthy her work will cause her much distress and pain, and she will suffer from headaches, and backaches and side-achts, and each evening wiil Cnel her utttriy worn-out. sick ar.d disgusted with life. In tUis condition of mind ami body she cannot be a loving and amiable companion for her husband when he returns from his work weary too in body and mind. If a woman wants to live a happy, contented, loving, helpful married life she cannot take too much care of the health and vigor of the organs distinctly feminine, for her general health ar.d f-trength is largely dependent upon her special health in a womanly way. Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-tiein enables a woman to be always well and strong where a woman most needs health and strength. It acts directly on the important ami delicate organs involved in her wifehood and motherhood. It makes them strong and healthy. Taken during the period preceding motherhood it banishes the usual discomforts and makes baby's coming easy and comparatively painless. It insure the new-comer's health and provides an ample supply of natural nourishment.
It cures all weakness and disease, and head-aches, backaches, and side-aches no longer torture her in her work.

Controller Gourley yesterday gave out a lengthy statement in reply to the presidents of councils, Warmcastle and ITol-liday, who asserted that thi last appropriation ordinance was made up from figures given to the sub-finance committee by the controller. in reply Mr. Gourley says thait for years the principal factor in fixing the. appropriations; and adjusting the estimates was not the sub-finance committee, the finance committee or Messrs. Holliday and Warmcastle.
It is surmised that the controller referred to two wel'-irnowu gentleme.n not holding official position, who every year "assist" ln the preparation of the estimates and appropriation ordinances. He then goes on to show that ever since ho was controller he objected to the system of estimating ts certain revenues that portion of th-! taxes and water rents which remain deiinqucr.t every year. Mr. Gourley also recal.3 the fact that before the last election a. promise was made that the delinquent tax ordinances would be fo changed that delinquent taxpayers money would not find it to their interest to ostpone the payment of their taxes for 16 months.
