Masai Dogs, Doc Day sad Hyaro-
hobta.
OMAHA, March X-To the Editor of Th
Be: As soon a th warm, day of sum
mer cum la many towns and clUoa, laws
ar enacted requiring that all doc found
at large Momuuled shall be killed, but a
aoon aa the frost of autumn appear, th
do(s ar permitted to roam unmusslod, un
molested. Tula muiillng of dogs In hot
weather Is supposed by many Intelligent
persona to be a protection of the people
.from th terrible disease hydrophobia. It
Is. however, a superstition bom of an Ignor
ant age and kept alive by th sgnoranc and
credulity of th mussea, for th "dog day"
of summer hav absolutely no relation to
mad dogs, or the development of hydro
phobia. ...
Blrlus, , or th Dog star, th moet bril
liant of the fixed star and th larreat In
th constellation of Canls Major, or th
Great Doc, received It name from Slrls,
on of the Egyptian appellation of the
river Nile, because It helical risln (I. e.
Just before aunt-lae) gave warning that th
overflow of th river was about to com
mence, and th so-called "dog days" of
summer aa reckoned by th ancient were
forty In number, twenty before and twenty
after the helical rising of the Dog Star.
The rising of th Dog Star was tgnorantly
supposed to b th occasion of th ex
treme heat and of th dlseaaea Incidental
to these days. It waa by mere accident
that the rising of th Dog Star coincided
with th hottest season of the year In
time and countries of the old astronomer.
The time of Its rising depends on th lati
tude of th place, and I later and later
every year In all latitude, owing to th
procession. In tune the star will rise In the
winter, and th almanac mark "dog day"
In January Instead of August
Hydrophobia la a dims of th nervous
system of man Induced by a poison from
soma member of the canine or feline race,
aa th dog, wolf, fox, jackal or cat, which
may or may not hav rame at th tlm.
Mr. Mason' biindl terrier Prince did not
develop rabies, though McCormlck died of
hydrophobia from hi bit In N4w Tork In
1874. Th licking of a sore on a woman' fac
by her lap dog caused hydrophobia, from
which the woman died, but th dog had no
rablaa. There la abundant evidence to
prove that these animal need not be mad
to cause hydrophobia. Whll th bit from
a rabid animal I more poisonous, th fact
ar that of twenty persona bitten, even by
a rabid animal, only ons develops hydro
phobia. Ilenc th reputation of th
vaunted specific for hydrophobia.
No doubt th mustllng or some dogs and
th destruction of all vagrant dog during
hot weather I meant for th people' good,
but It la quit temporary In It operation,
and during th remainder of th year leaves
th community unguarded. It thus createa
a false sense of security, and perhaps on
that account may even be Injurious. More
efficient protection would probably be af
foMd by some method which should be In
constant and regular operation throughout
th year, especially If based upon a reaaon-

abl knowledge of th disease and Its symp
tom. Th principal danger of Infection
from an animal consist In the fact that
no one can tell whether the animal be
oapable of Infecting or not, and also that
people in general do not know a rabid dog
when they see one, for they mistake other
infections, as epilepsy, etc., which are com
paratively harmless, for hydrophobia; but
th disease Itself they do not recognise,
because their diagnosis rests on their er
roneous Ideas, vis: First, that a mad dog
la only to be met with In hot weather,
whereas abundant evidence, shows more
dog go mad with rabies In winter than
In summer; second, that th rabid dog la
afraid of water and will not drink. This
Is equally erroneous, for the rabid dog Is
not afraid of water and will frequently
drink when he haa an opportunity, and will,
as dogs usually do, go Into a pond or
stream and swim about and lap the water.
Third, that th rabid dog I ferocious and
aggressive. Abundant evidence show the
rabid dog to be frequently kind and af
fectionate, especially during the early
stages.
Another frequent and serious mistake I
this: As soon as a vagrant dog has bitten
anyone he first Impulse of the bystander
Is to kill him. But when this has been
don th only possible mean of knowing
whether the animal, were really mad 1
lost and several months must elapse before
th Injured person can be relieved of anx
lety from this source. It is evident that
uch a dog should never be killed at once,
but shruld b secured and kept under ob
servation for a few days, until his symp
toms ar fully developed. In a large ma
jority of cases It would turn out that the
disease was not rabies.. The mussle is not
a protection, for the dog must be unmux
sled to be fed, and I of Itself a constant
source of annoyance and worry to the dog,
conditions, which. Ilk unktndne and
! ahiiu, m&ka vaarant doss easily develon
rabies.
What, then, shall be dona? Let all
worthies dog be destroyed and th few
valuable ones that remain hav their tusks,
oanlne and Incisor teeth filed down from a
point to a flat surface so that they will
not penetrate, the unbroken skin. Thl I
easily done, doe not harm the dog nor
unfit him for any useful purpose. While
not an Infallible protection, thl Is th best
xpedlent known to scientific men at the
present time and should b adopted by our
city council rather than the useless. In
jurious and foolish method of mussling
now In us.

MRS. MATILDA ZEIGLER'S GREAT WORK
Notable Benefaction by New York
Woaas Which Will Be of
Immense Service to Mavny
Unfortunate
On of the most notable benefactions In
the Interest of those deprived of their sight
1 th Matilda Zlegler Magaxin for the
Blind, the first number of which haa re
cently been Issued. Mrs, Matilda Ziegler,
widow of the late William Zlegler of New
Tork, 1 It founder and It 1 to be Issued
free to the blind of the United States who
can read either New Tork point or Braille
Friends of Mrs.' Zlegler have prevailed
upon her to let her nam be used In the
title of the magaxin that the world may
realise that thl great gift la from a
woman.
The magaxlne will be Issued monthly and
It Is the intention of the publishers to
make It of a character that will appeal to
the greatest number of blind rather than
to the very few literary, and yet b of
Interest to all. The suggestion of Helen
Keller that "the blind ar not specialists,
Interested only in blindness," has been well
regarded, and aside from mentioning special
work being done by them and new lines of
work being done for them, there will be as
little mention as possible of blindness. Short
stories, continued stories, the news of the
month and letters from successful blind
people, telling of various line of work In
which they have been successful, con
trlbuta to a most Interesting volume. A
musical column Is to be added later.
Prlated (. aider DlffieaUles.
An Immense amount of work was entailed
In collecting the names and addresses of
the reading blind over the country, but the
greatest problem was that of getting the
printing done until a large press required
for the work could be built, thl to take
several month at least. But no sooner
was the announcement of the project made
than the American Printing House for the
Blind at Louisville. Ky.. the largest plant
of Its kind In this country, volunteered to
do anything possible to assist. At the

Btate Industrial School for the Blind at
Hartford, Conn., offered the services of that
Institution, with the result that the maga
xlne can be printed In both the New York
point and Braille, the Louisville house to
print the former and the Hartford school
tha latter.
The magaxlne will not be sent to blind
students while in school, but will be sent
to them at their homes during vacation
and a number of copies sent to each school
during the school year. As the expense
of Issuing the magaxlne la necessarily great
It Is requested that anyone receiving It and
not caring for It, notify the publisher,
Walter O. Holmes, 1931 Broadway, New
York, that It may be stopped. It Is also
requested that names of reading blind, not
receiving the magaxlne, be sent to the pub
lisher. While announced that the magazlno
I free. It ha been necessary to charge a
subscription price of 10 cents a year that
It may be entered as second class matter
In the postofflce. Otherwise the postage on
each copy would be U cents, and the mail
ing alone would be Increased $8,000 a year.
Oeaesl of th Magaslae,
The magaxlne had its Inception In a letter
ent a year ago to the New York papers
by Walter Q. Holmes, a newspaper man of
Memphis, Tenn., who has a blind brother,
In which article he commented upno the
need of literature for the blind and the
fact that the great cost of books place
them out of reach of the great majority.
Mrs. Zlegler, who has a blind son, was at
tracted by the article and communicated
with Mr. Holmes, th result being the
magaxlne Just Issued. The first Issue was
about 7,000 copies, the largest edition for
the blind ever Issued. It la estimated that
It will cost Mrs. Zlegler something over f3
a year for each copy she sends out, an the
process of printing Is difficult and expen
sive. The names of about (.000 blind read
ers have been received and the magaxlne
is being sent to them. In addition to these
there are about 4,600 student norf In
schools for th blind, and more In home
for the blind and a certain number of
copies will be sent to these. Mr. Holmes,
who Is now manager of tha magaxlne, esti
mate that 1300,000 will place a circulating
library for the blind In every state In the
union, and he would like to explain his
plan to everyone Interested. The United
States mail takes book for tha blind from
a library and returns them free of charge.
itructlon to com and lay his troubles be
fore .us and we will do all In our power
for him. If it Is consolation or advice
he needs, it will be given, and if It Is finan
cial aid, we will do what we can In that
line. There is no need of a man being
out of employment In Omaha at the pres
ent. If you know of any such end them
to us. We have more calls for men than
we can' supply."
Captain 8torer left for Chicago last
night on business connected with Salvation
Army work and expect to be gone all tha
