WAS HIS INAGINATION A FEAR OF RABIES CAUSED HIS DEATH. : Brooklyn Policeman Dies Several Months After Being Bitten By Mad Dog. New York, June 19.--Fcar that he would die of rabies, while in fact no symptoms of the disease existed, caused the death of Policeman John H. O'Donnell, of Brooklyn, in a sani- tarium ik. Connecticut, While he was on duty in lower Fulston street early on the morning of September 2lst last, a watchman in a building in course of repair told O'Donnell his dog had goné mad, O'Donnell volun- tecred to attend the animal. It was dark inside and the dog leaped on the policeman, who was bitten on the right hand and left th 0' Donnell was in tho party which finally killed the dog. : 2 ; When the dog's body was dissected in the Willard Parker hospital the animal was declared to have had rabies in the worst form. 0'Donincll was much downecast and he got leave of absonce to go to a sanitarium. On reading of the doaih from rabies oi a man living inn Flatbush last fall \ he became completely unnerved and had to get ahothor leave of absence. He returned to his duty and then worked until May 15th, when it was necessary for him to be relieved again. . « O'Donnell complained at times of pains inf his hands. Specialists declar- ed these' pains imaginary. No other symptoms of the disease could be found, and it is the belief of physicians that he worried himsalf io death. "TWAS A NEW ONE. Ottawa Man Put Down For a New Faith. Canadian Courier, Toronto. There is a literary magnate in Ot- tawa whose views on religious mat- tors are somewhat variable, and, there- fore, he has "moved" from church to church until Anglicans, Proshyterians and Methodists feel doubtful of his ul- timate creed. Finally, the gentleman aecidod to call his convictions by a name new io the general public and the members of his family were duly informed of the latest doctrine. A census expert happened to call at the house a short time after the latest change of heart, and, as the father was at the offic: and the mother was making afternoon calls, the children were interrogated as to certain facts [in connection with the family history. "What church do you go to!" ask; ed he of thé blue documents. "Ve usea to have a pew in St. An- drew's," said a small boy chearfully, "aml before that we went to the Eng- lish church. But now we are--oh, what's the name of it, Susie." Susia looked up rebukingly and said to the census man : "We're Gnostics and we don't need to go to church any more." "Gnosties 1" gasped the weary sta- tistics experd, "that's where I got off. That's a new one on me, all right. I've had Christadelphians and New Jerusalom people, but I've never been up against § Gnostic before." And he left the literary atmosphere, musing, a® ho went, upon the vagaries of the artistic temperament. Have Too Much Money. Montreal Star. The squalid Gould scandal illustrates once more how little money can. buy. The divorce courts do not find their work among the sons and daughters of those who get a fair day's pay for a fair day's work, and who fall in love naturally during the innocent as- sociations of youth and marry with the intention of together making their way in life, *"The gilded forehead' -- whether it be of "the fool" or the wise man--attracts by its glitter a cloud of moths and less harmless in- whose blandishments only a shrewd man can resist. A father can leave a lot of things to his children of more value than a pile of gold. sects An Economical Remedy. Wade's Ointment is put up in large boxes at a small price. It is cheap in the truest sense because you get for the price a large quantity of a most valuable remedy. Wade's Oint- ment cures skin affections that many dollars worth of other remedies would probably not cure. (Cures eczema (salt rheum), scaly or itching eruptions of the skin, pimples, blotches, dandruff, etc. In big boxes, 25¢., at Wade's drug store. Built In Canada. Montreal Gazette. The new steamship Hamonic is ing widely praised as among the staunchest, best equipped and finest on the upper lakes. It was built in a Canadian yard, gand without a gov- ernment subsidy® The latter fact is not the least notable of all that are alluded to. It means that where men of courage and meane are combined big things can be done in Canada on a business basis. » Bonds Selling Well.

Retail Merchants Will Meet Here Next Year. The Provincial Retail Merchants' Association will hold next year's con- vention, in Kingston. This was de cided upon, at Brockville, yesterday, at the closing This speaks well. for Kingston, when it is stated thal when the matter of a place of meeting was up for discussion, there was not one representative from Kings- ton present. However, the Kingston delegates who were present at Wed- nesday's sossion, extended an invita- tion for the convention to be held in the old Limestone City, and they suc- ceeded in winning over the convention. Toronto, Hamilton, Peterboro and Lindshy made a very strong bid for the honor, but it was a case of Kings- ton first. The city will be glad to wel- come puch a convention, and retail merchants are more than pleased at the result. It is expected that next vear's meeting will be attended by far niore delegates than this year. session, Mind Its Own Business. A citizen writes as follows : "Our aty light, heat and power committee is" Wnkering with a street railway matter with which it has no concern. What has sit to do with the com- pany's offer to sell the road? :No- thing at all, and yet it dilly-dallies with it. Its business is the manu- facture and sale of power and light. Let it quote the cost price of manu- facture to the street railway com- pany, and be done with the matter. The finance committee of the council is the body to deal with the' offer to sell the road. The light, heat and power committee should have sense enough to mind its own business and send the purchase question on to the quarter to which it belongs, The two ex-mayors on the light committee ought to know by this time the difference between an ice waggon and a doctor ?"'
