An Enraged Bull Dog Chews Mrs. Thos. Burke. THE DOG KILLED. 'THE WIFE OF THOMAS BURKE CORNER HAWLEY AND WASH- INGTON SEREBIS WAS MANG- LED BY &A BULL DOG WHILE PUNISHING HER SON HARRY. From the Union-Sun of May 15. Mrs, Thomas Burke of the corner of Hawley and Washington Streets was very severely bitten by a bull dog at a few minutes past 1 o'clock yester- day afternoon. It seems that Mrs. Burke had told her son Hurry, 12 years old, to go to school which the boy re- fuged to do, 'The mother had tried re- peitedly to have the boy obéy her. She took hor son Into the house to the sit- ting room to punish him. 'The dog was in the dining room which is adjoining. 'The boy cried and his sister, Anna, who was in the dining room opened the door to see what the matterwas. \The dog ran tuto the sitting room and sprung at Mrs.Burke, He buried his fangs In her loft limb. 'The enraged dog - sprang at the woman tine and time agimin. Hor left limb from the knee to the aukle isamass of chewed und bleeding flesh, The dog's teeth, eachtime he bit her, were buried in the flesh and plerced to the bone. 'The eldest daughter of Mrs. Burke tried repeatedly to tike the dog from the woman but with the deter- mined bull dog manner the beast held tight and at last was only tom away when he had had boiling water poured over hito. \The dog ran in the barn and the in- jured woman was nearly frantic with prin andf rom loss ofblood. Dr.Cos- ford was called and dressed the wounds. It was necessary to take nine stiches in some places where the wouuds were the largest. An officer wits called who shot the dog. 'Tenbul- lets were fired Into the body of the dog before the signs of life were extinct. Mrs. Burke is reported as resting as comfortably as could be expected to- (ny. Her husband is an employee of Sumner B. White fhe lumber dealer. A TROUT FARM. May*be Built on the LeVan Farm. THE GREEN SPRINGS WILL SUP- PLY, THE WATER--BROOK TROUT WILL BE PLANTED AXD IN A FEW YEARS THERE WILL BE FISH GALORE, Some members of the Niagara Coun- ty Angler's Club are considering a new scheme. for planting fish. Ed. Le Van who owns a firm about two miles east of the city and who is a +prominent member of the club come forward at the suggestion of severat of the mem- brs rnd proposes that the club build a trout pond on his farm. The proposed pond will be fed by the water which comes from the Green Springs. 'The water from the springs flows stendily all the year. In the spring there are no freshets and in the summer the water supplydoes not di- minish, 'The springs are located on a farm some distance west of the Le Van firm but the natural course of the water is toward the Le Van farm where there are two more springs and the water lins formd a little pond, of pure water. \The cost of fixing the pond would be slight all that would be necessary would bearam. 'The pond formed will be 30 feet wide and 150 feet long. 'The great advantage is that the water supply will be fresh and steady. A member of the club said to a re- porter this morning: \If the club shouldtike an interest in the matter and plant a quantity of brook trout in a few years there would be enough fish in the pond to supply Niagara County.\ 'There is not a brook trout pond in Ni- agara County, 'The spring which it is proposed to dam and thus make the pond is the Green Spring which there has been considerable tilk ofpiping to the cityto beused for domestic pur- poses. Fashions In Calling=Cards. 'Phe Roman or block letter is becom- Ing more popular asthe style of engray- ing for visiting-card plates, while the fashionable thin card of two-sheet quality is eminently proper. Gards for both men and women are considerably smaller, and the script engraving is finer in consequence, following ore closely the English style than the Pirig- gx‘m, which is larger and with flourishes. Fhe block or Roman letter plate is very English, and with those affecting Lon- don styles It finds great favor. The price more than double that of script en- graving, Ladies use tht block style now on their cards for teas and recep- as it admits of the necessary en- 'graving of days within a smalled space than the script, and enables a smaller card being used.-May Ladies' Home Journal..

A Union-Sun re- porter had a talk this morning with J. W. Allen, who has had the matter in charge. Mr. Allen stated that he sent the petition to the Adjt. General dur- ing the month of March. Not receiving any reply he wrote again on the 9th of this month and received the follow- ing letter yesterday: Albany, May 14, 1896. Ar,. J. V. Allen, Lockport, N. X.;: Siri-I have the honor to acknowl- edge receipt of yours of the Oth inst., enclosing application for the formation of a separate company in the city of Lockport, and to say that the same cannot be considered. The strength of the guard is now so near the limit prescribed by law that the miximum might easily be reached through the ordinary course of enlist ment in the existing organizations and furthermore, the annual appropriation for the support of the National Guard is no more than is actually required to rapefly maintain it as now constitut- ed. Respectfully, E. A. MeALPINE, - Adjutant-General. A SAD CASE.

Glassford of No. 20 Spald- ing Street, was found dead on the floor of her room at 5 o'clock yesterday at- ternoon. Mrs. Glassford seemed to be and was dressing at the time her death oc- curred.

A soldier named Wyman deserted a few days ago from the U. S8. army at Ft. Niagara. His present whereabouts are unknown. The farmers in this section are com- plaining of the continued dry weather. Spring crops are sufféring greatly for want of rain. : A, lot on Main Street of this village, known as the Luffman property, was sold by Sheriff's sale on Friday last to Mr. Frank Trevor of Lockport, consid- eration $1,205. Very little interest is taken in base bail here this season. Notwithstanding the efforts of Lieut. Malone, who is working hard to organize a nine, and who has expended considerable money : t omake athletic sports a success, but! little progress has been made. Col. Smith, the commander, has decided to discontinue the use of the old grounds near the Bellevue Hotel, and steps will be soon taken to construct a new dia- mond on the bank of Lake Ontario. Considerable comment was excited in village circles last week by the action of members of the Donald Robertson dramatic troupe in boycotting the ho- tels of the place and registering in houses across the river Such action on their part was entirely inexcusable, as their entertainments were very liberal- ly patronized. Besides there are few country towns that can furnish such excellent accommodations as are af- forded by the hotels of Youngstown. Ridge Road.

A resident of East Lockport Satur- day evening, visited several of the up- per town resorts and when he started for his home under the hill was labor- ing under the effects of a considerable load. All went well and he was able to keep on the sidewalk until he reached Exchange Street bridge over the canal. When this point in his homweard jour- ney was reached his vision became in- walking on the bridge he stepped off 'the dock behind the Market Street buildings into the raging Erie. Some pedestrians were crossing the bridge and seeing the struggling man in the water came to his assistance. They secured a pike pole which the man took hold of and was drawn near enough to the dock so one of the men could get hold of his coat collar when he was drawn out of the water. By the time the inebriate had reached dry land he was pretty well sobered up and resumed his journey to his home a sadder and a wiser man.
