Uncle Dick and Lisa's Old Time Animal Tales

This is the time of year when dogs seem to become ferocious and many people have been thoroughly frightened and narrowly escaped being bitten by dogs jumping upon them unceremoniously.
Yesterday O. D. Goss was bitten on the hand by a dog which he shot afterward. The wound is not serious, but had to be cauterized at once.
John Stevens, while walking along Twenty-second street, was attacked by a large black dog, and before he could throw him off, the animal had dug his teeth into Steven’s leg, inflicting a pretty bad wound. Dr. Connell attended both victims.
Officer Shoup was attacked by a dog in almost the same way a few days ago. His wound was not bad, but the dog’s teeth penetrated the flesh.
At this time of year, dogs should be muzzled in order to protect the public. The officers are keeping a strict watch, and any dog that seems inclined to molest people will be taken care of by them.
