In June last Mueller and his 10-year-oldson were in a saloon in the neighborhood of his residlence. The boy began playing` with a small cur that had strayed into the. place. Thedog bit the lad in the hand and while attempting to rescue his son fromthe animal : attack the father was also bitten. Six weeks later the boy died, and his physicians had no hesitancy in pronouncing the case one of well de- ned hydrophobia. Last Saturday the father. was stricken down with the same _disease and is to-day su'erin untold agony. Four prominent physicians are in attendance and friends of Mueller are constantly with him to care for hlmr in his spasms.

Two years ago Elijah Smith and his wife were killed by a Grand Trunk train while `crossing the track near Detroit in a carriage. The administrators brought two suits for $25,000 each against the company, based on the ground of careless- ness. The suits started in the Supreme Court, but "afterwards removed "to the United -States Circuit. One of the cases was tried at the March term, the jury. nding a verdict for the plaintilfs in the sum of 85,000. The attorney for the company moved for a new trial on the ground of contributory negligence Judges Brown and Hammond have denied the motion and conrmed the judgment with interest to date. 2 e ' vu her. was, withdrawn._ K'i-;"lC"3'anipbell, M.
