RAVAGES OF A MAD DOG.
For several days a mad dog has
been running wild in Crowley and
Cache townships, of Greene county,
says the Paragould .Soliphone, and
making life miserable for people in
these neighborhoods. The dog has
bitten considerable live stock and
yesterday ended up by biting a ten
months-old child of John Buster, in
Cache township, on the foot. Shortly
after Mr. Buster got at close quarters
with the dog and killed him with a
stick. Immediately after the acci
dent, which took place yesterday
morning, C. B. Garner of Cache town
ship, was summoned and brought his
mad stone, which has become cele
brated through this part of the county
for its cures. The stone was applied
several times to the foot of the bitten
child and one time clung to the wound
for five hours. The child is doing
well. So far none of the stock bitten
has shown any signs of madness.
