              MAD DOG
              
              The Animal Attacks Two Little Girls
              and Inflicts Serious Injuries
              Upon Them.
              
              Anoka, Minn., - Sept. 7. - In view of her mother, 
            who was making a frantic but futile effort to rescue
            her child, the three-year-old daughter of Mrs. EARNEST
            BENNETT of Oak Grove was attacked by a mad dog, who
            time and time again buried his fangs in the child's
            forehead.
              The dog had previously attacked and bitten another
            little girl named TRODJAR.
              Mrs. EARNEST BENNETT was coming home in a buggy from
            St. Francis. When near her home she saw a big dog, with
            bloody froth drooling from his loosely hanging jaws and
            bloodshot eyes. Her children were in the yard at play
            and she made a frantic effort to reach them, but before
            she could do so the dog had thrown the child to the
            ground and inflicted several wounds in her forehead.
              The dog then started for a child of WALTER GASLIN,
            but Mr. GASLIN succeeded in getting the child out of
            harm's way. The dog then bit another dog belonging to
            HERBERT BREYAM. GEORGE SEELYE secured a shotgun and
            after pursuing the animal for a mile he killed it.
              The BARRETT girl was hurried to a physician who
            dressed the wounds. Fears are expressed that the bites
            may prove fatal to both girls.
