Meeting of the Society for Their PrOtec-
tion.
The monthly meeting of the Pennsylvania
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
was held at No. 1920 Chestnut street last evening
Since the previous meeting, joint committee
of the society and the woman's branch has
organized society in Pittsburg. Representa-
tiyes have been appointed for the different wards
of the city and some of the interior counties of
the State.
The agent reported AZ new complaints, 80 cases in
course OF Investigation, new members, and sl46
proved their stock by the purchase Of fresh horses.
The Union Droveyard Company, near Hestonville,
erection OF water-troughs, shedding and other I'M
provements Warrants are out for the arrest Of
three persons, fugitives from jcstceone for kick
ing horse in the stomach the others for skinnng
dog alive. Fountains have been opened and repaired
and are now in good order.
There is great delay in the trial OF cases in court
homicide and other cases having the precedence.
The extension OF the sOcetys action into surround-
ing counties involves an additional necessity for
more ample means. The funds are so nearly ex-
hausted that much desirable work Is necessarily
omitted
of iron or tin into the street. and OF driving fat cat
tie and other cloyen-hoofed stock over the cobble-
stones are specially commended TO public attention.
Horses are often seriously and sometimes fatally
injured by the former act and the latter perls the
public heath through the feversh Inflammation
which it produces In the cattle.
AN EMBEzzIER AND "BooDLE MAN."-Some
time ago James O'Shay placed in the possession
of James Redman ten barrels of liquor, valued
sold the liquor advantageously and then
pocketed the funds, shut up his shop, and made
himself scarce. This was in keeping with his
character, for O man versed in the "boodle
game" is not above stealing. Detective Hag-
gerty has been looking for Mr.. Redman some
time and finally succeeded In arresting him this
morning. He is held for hearing this after
noon.

Il Fighting PaTsOn.

Not vcrv far from Green county, Pa,
is little edlfce called the OcIorara
Methodist Episcopal church, over whose
congregation Parson Gregg sometimes
presides. Psrson Gregg is man who
fears The Lord, but never stands IN dread
OF man, be he ever so mighty. The Oc-
torara churbh, generally known as the
Gray Horse" stands in sort OF desert,
and lies one-hslf in Pennsylvania and
one-haI( in Maryland that is, The old
Mason and DIxon's line cuts i, in two,
and leaves the sacred building equally
divided between the two States. When.
ever there is revival, the ungodIy from
the Sonhern side OF the line come over
and raise Cain among the faithful. They
congregste about the door and issue cat
calls, and they swear and cut up general
ly like barbarisns. When meeting is
over ltey force their attention upon the
young ladies of The church, and make
love 10 them in highly indecorous man.
ner, and, on meeting The parSon, always
insist upon his taking drink. This IN
vSriably olfends the good man, and eX.
cites his wrath against the wretches, the
more since they are always Hpsy and 10.
varlably bIasphemous.
The other night party Of them came
over the line and disturbed the meeting.
Parson Gregg paused moment in the
delivery Of his sermon (Which. by the
way, was from the fifth chapter of ST.
Mathew, and rolling up his sleeves, ut-
tered himself as follows
"Young men II there's another dis
orderly sound from among your dlsre?u-
table crowd, TT come down from tins sa-
cred desk, and in the name of the Lord
put head on every mothers son OF you.
Get down on your knees, you hounds,
and pray Tor better manners, or else le-
want"
Saying which he proceeded with his
sermon, most edilyIng discourse.
In moment The noi,e again began.
An audible swear of the first magnitude
filled The room with lis bad odor, and
caused the worshipers II shrink within
themselves with horror.
Parson Gregg came down from the
puIpi: in stale Of quiet rage. He took
of his coat and hung il over the chancel
rail. and then wen, for lhose wicked
young men, only one of whom he sue
ceeded in overhaulng within The portals
OF the church. Him he bssled sa'islac.
toriIy. Following close upon the trail
OF The others, he came up with the most
outrageous heather Of alone jim Page
Bedloe, whom he tackled without a word
Of grace. Psrson Gregg gave BedIoe a
most clerical and caDonica wslloping.
When he had finished pounding with his
fist he resorled to his heels. Jim was
able 10 defend all OF him but the other
end, and when his punishment had been
duly administered he went home wiser
and sorer than when lie came, and has
been since unable 10 use a hard bottom
chair.
The parsou then returned 10 his puI pit
and finished his sermon. He will never
be troubled any more.
