Knocked down by a dog, Waldemar Bjork, of Tenth street, had the tip of his nose and one finger bitten off by the raging and frothing animal and both wounds were cauterized by Dr. Bellows late yesterday afternoon to prevent hydrophobia.
The dog is noted as an ugly one, and young Bjork, with other boys, claims that it had been in the habit of following them on their way home from school, snapping at their heels and threatening to bite.
Yesterday they determined to make a stand against the animal and with whips and clubs stopped when it made for them. As it came on they attacked it. Young Bjork was in the van. The beast, not a large but a fierce one, made a lunge at his throat and sent him reeling. Then it tore at his nose and sank its teeth into the white and quivering flesh. Before this it had bitten the boy’s finger. He screamed for aid, but his two boy chums were powerless and older people had the rescue him. He was then taken to Dr. Bellows’ office and the wounds were burned out. The dog will be shot.
