Little Carrie Koch "of Danbury Taken Off.
by Hydrophobic.“
.,__._..
Carrie Koch, of Danbury, six-Yen's"
‘old, died yesterday afternoon of
hydrophobia. Two weeks ago she was
bitten by a dog which was supposed to
have been mad. No attention was
paid to the iniury until Thursday,
when the child evinced symptoms of
the dreadful disease. She would
neither eat nor drink, and when food
and water were offered, pushed them
away with shudders. The physicians
did not know whether the child had
hydrophobia until Saturday. They
telephoned the symptoms towDr. J euier
at the Pasteur institute, New York.
He pronounced the case genuine hy-
drophobia and said the child would not
live twodayaprri ‘ '

Bishop \Williams’. Prayer.
Bishop Williams has set forth the fol-
lowing Prayer for the Country, to be
used in the Episcopalchurches in Con-
necticut: -
O ALMIGHTY LORD, who fashion-
est the hearts of men and cousiderest
all their works, grant, we beseech Thee,
to us and to the people of this land, the
spirit of obedience to Thy command-
ments; that walking humbly, in Thy
fear, we may, under Thy mighty pro-
tection continue to dwell in righteous-
ness and peace. Defend our liberties;
preserve our unity; save us from law-
lessness, dishonesty and violence; from
discord and confusion from pride and
arrogance, and from every evil way.
Continue Thy. goodness to us, that the
heritage received from our fathers may
be preserved in our time and ”transmit-
ted, unimpaired, to the generations to
come; that all nations of theearthvmay
know that Thou, O Lord, art' our
Saviour and mighty Delive'rer, and our
King for ever. Grant this we beseech
Thee, through Jesus Christ our Lord,
Amen. ,

Thomas Gueano was bound over at
Danbury on Saturday, for trying to
murder Frank Gillotti. Gueano’s wife
sloped with Gillotti from Pennsylvania
some months ago and Gueanohappened
to find them in Danbury. Going to
Gillotti’s house Friday night, Gueano
attacked both the man and the woman
and tried to shoot them. _When the
ofiicers arrived the men were locked in
each ._ other’s .. embrace on the floor,
Gillotti gripfing the hand in which,
Gueanofihad a revolver and Gueano'
gripping'the hand in which Gillotti
held a knife. Gueano had bitten
through Gillotti’s-hand without making

Motto Buttons Prohibited. -
The Commissioners of Public Iu-
struction‘ of Hoboken‘have prohibited
the wearing of motto buttons by the
children in the public schools. Com-
plaints were , made to the Commission-
ers by teachers who pronounced the
button craze among the children a~
nuisance. Many of the buttons worn
by the schoolboys were found to bear
vulgar and suggestive inscriptions, and
the craze has reached such an extent
that some boys attended school with
the front of their jackets covered with
these mottoes. ‘ '
A similar prohibition at the public
schools in Norwalk would have a salu.
tar; effect. '

Election Day Notes.
The day thus far has been, as far as
weather is concerned, what" years ago
was known as'a “good day for the De-
mocracy.” The skies have been cloudy,
and the rain has descended at intervals.
The atmosphere has also been decided-
ly cool.
The streets are lined with men out of
work, and the walk between the “dead
line” on Town House hill and Wall»
street, has been filled with ballot and
pastor peddlers, as well as those with
No and Yes License ballots.
The temperance people are making a
hard fight and so are the saloon-keep-
ers. In fact the greater interest of the
election seem to center on the question
as to whether it shall be license.
The town ticket is said to be getting
a lively scratching as is also the city
ticket. Up to noon about 900 town
tickets and 600 city tickets had been
deposited in the ballot boxes. .
Appearances do not indicate an un-
usually large vote on either the city or
town tickets, and yet the Republicans "
feel reasonably sure of electing all of
their candidates.
The color of the ticket on the license
vote is yellow. It was reported that a
white ticket was to be circulated, but if
true it was being very slyly done.
Rev. Dr. Noble on going to the polls
was profi'ered a yellow envelope which
bore on its face the word"l‘License” as
do all, of the legal envelopes. He
pushed it-aside with theremark that he
wanted a “No License” envelope. The
matterwas explained to him and secur-
ing a- ballot he placed it in the envelope
and voted as his conscience dictated.
A black water spaniel with a blanket
bearing the words “No License” at-
tracted considerable attention on Mill
Hill.

Sneak Thieves.
Last. Saturday, Bernard Larrigsu
who lives at 2TBelden avenue was the
victim of sneak thieves. On going out
of the house by way of the real‘ door,
he turned the key in the lock and then
hung the key on a'convenient nail. He
was not absent more than fifteen min-
utes. On returning he found that the
house had been entered and jewelry
and a snail amount of money too sav-
ings of alittle child had been stolen.
He thinks that the theft was committed
by some boys who must have noticed
where he left the Rev and took advan-
tage of the opportunity of committing
the theft. Some of the lads in that
neighborhood unless they mend their
ways are liable to land in the jail.
At the Fret Congregational church
yesterday morning the pastor’s subject
was“Rejoicing in Hope.” In the even-
ing there was a veeper service of prayer
and song. Mrs. Newkirk sang efl'ect-
ively Gounod‘s “Jerusalem” and the
service was greatly enjoyed. By
special request“; will be repeated next
Sunday evening.
Rev. Thomas K. Noble Wlll go to
Bridgeport to-morrow to attend the
Association of Congregational Ministers
of Fairfield County.
A few years ago nedrly all newspapers
published, at this season, recipes for summer
complaints. Now such items are seldom
met with. Publishers have learned that
there is nothing quite as good as C ber-
lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
for these diseases and as’it is in general use
everywhere they have quit publishing these
recipes. No one havin a bottle of this
remedy in the house nee fear an attack of
bowel complaint. It can always be depended
upon and is pleasant and safe. For sale by

DANGER IN ROENTGEN RAYS.
An Experimenter Loses Five of His Fln- .
ger- Nails.
A warning has been voiced by one
of the leading English medical journ-
als in regard to the too frequent use
of the Roentgen ray nppuratu , says
the Philadelphia “Ledger.” ‘ '
It is interesting, no dubt, to obtain
a series of photographs of one’s own
skeleton, but if this is to be. atthe ex-
pense of such trifles as one’s hair and
one’s. finger nails, it seems hardly
worth the cost. One electrical engi-
neer, who has often demonstrated the
the beauty of his own finger bones
by placing one of his hands within the
radius of the searching rays, has lost
all the nails from the fingers of that
hand, while Mr. Sidney Rowland, who
is one of the leading experimenters
in this direction, mentions several
cases of similar character in the
structural changes that occur in the
hair, and so forth, of those who have
been frequently shadowgrnphed by
this method. Thus, in theories of pa-
tients. whose heads have been sub-
jected to the influence of the rpys, the
hair has either turned Whitc'or has
fallen out entirely. It is suggested
that those 'results are due to the elec-
trical potency of what are called the
ultra violet, rays ofr the spectrum,
though their,_ precise action is at pre-
sent by no, means thoroughly under—
stood.
One curious suggestion has already
been made. It is a. well-known super-
sition, and one which has existed for
generations, that the people Who sleep
in the direct rays of the moon have
their reasin‘r‘nore or less seriously af-
fected. Now it is said that these ul-
tra violet rays existin the moonlight,
and hence a popular superstition may
be founded upon scientific fact.

Sunlight'ds Death to Bacteria.
Fresh experiments on the power of
sunshine to kill disease germs were
described at a recent meeting of the
Biological Society of Washington. In
such experiments‘a' plate of gelatine
is sown with bacteria, and then por-
tions of the plate are covered. while
the remainder is exposed to direct
sunshine. In the exposed places the
organisms are killed, while they flour-
ish in the shaded parts. This fact is
used‘ to explain the beneficial effects
of sunlight allowed to, flood a. sick
