DOG FOUND TO HAVE RABIES

Two Little Boys Taken to Indianapolis for Treatment. The little son of George Bowman and the little Smith boy, who were bitten by a dog in the vicinity of their homes near Newland Monday, were taken to Indianapolis by their parents Thursday evening to receive the Pasteur treatment. Dr. C. E. Johnson, the local physician, went down yesterday to consult with the physicians there regarding them. An examination of the dog’s head revealed that it was badly affected with rabies, and it is hoped to ward off serious results ■by immediate treatment. As yet neither of the boys had shown any symptoms of having been affected.
