C1NCINNATI, April 14.-The Society for

an important csse to-day in the Police Court.
They had caused the arrest of several per-
sons engaged in shooting live pigeons at a
tournament. A test case was made Of one
of the parties. and demurrer flied. JUDGE
Highly decided that the word animals" in
the statute included every living dumb
creature, and that the words Htorture" aud
''cruelty"ss included every act of omission or
n, gIect whereby unnecessary physical pain
or suffering il caused, or permitted. He was
satisfied the allegations 40 contained in the
Information were sufficient, if sustained by
evidence, 10 constitute crime under the
laws of Ohio. The demurrer was over
