Dogs Kill Cattle Citizens of the Township of Sulli\raD iu the ricinity of Marmion and Desboru have been subject to considerable annoy- ance Jaring the past wesk by two strange do^i, which are attacking cattle and in »ome c isei killing t^em. List Sunday night, about nine o'clock Mr. Ge<^>rge Klages was attracted to a field on his brother's farm by a noise made by dogs. He g'lt his brother, Henry, and went out to investigate, taking a shotgun with him. On reaching the scene from whence the noise came, tliey found two do^ had the cattle c trailed iii one corner of the tield, and were a^taokin^' them. One yearling was badly chewed about the hind quarters, in fact it was so badly in- jured that it died right on the spot. A second one had buth ears chewed olf. An attempt was made to Hho.>t the dogs, but owing to the dogs being su near the catt'e it was decided that the risk of shoo;ing fie latter also was too great. The dogs managed to get away under cover of Uirkness and have not been seen since. I<ii|uirie4 in the neighborhood failed to tind any trace of «ny do;-* of the detcrip- tion of those attacking c«Mle. The whole neighborhood is gieatW exercised over the raaning at large of such viciiUis brutc", and if the d igs are tound tlit'V w 11 gel sliort shrift.- Advertiser.
