Cruelty of Showmen.

Il have Just returned from Long
Island, where have been investigating
complaints of cruelty to dogs" said
Superintendent Harkinson, OF the So
ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals. '.In those. museums, the
cruel ring-masters put small saddles on
the dogs, and then make monkey
ride On them. The monkey holds on
with grip akin to that of the cholera
on a darky, and in time the dogs back
becomes lacerated by scratches. When
those Jersey sandfies begin to burrow
in the raw sores the suffering of the
poor dog is terrible. Two wounded
dogs were taken out, and If their cases
prove serious arrests will be made" >.
mo; do not think there is much
cruelty to the monkeys and other ami
mails in the city museums and side
shows. We have investigated the
Bowery museums very thoroughly, and
I think the very thought OF Che prob
able presence of an officer at any time
has the desired effect. I made an ex-
animation of that three-horned OK and
am not thoroughly satisfied whether
there is cruelty in that case or not.
Yes; I mean that have some doubts
that the third horn grew there, yet, to
the casual observer it looks perfectly
natural, No, they will not submit the
OK to q minute examination. Yet do
not say that it is not natural. IN r

Captured.
Park River Gazette,

Fred Mitchell and Frank Bisbee, who
few weeks ago run off mortgaged prop
erty belonging to H. J. Randall and
several parties at Grafton, we're arrested
at Eau Claire, Wisconsin, one day last
week with the three teams in their pos
session. 1t appears that after they had
disposed of what wheat they had on
hand, which was also mortgaged, they
started with the teams and all movable
truck for Sioux Falls, shipping the same
to the place of their arrest. One of
Mitchell's teams was bought of Mr..
Randall some time this fall on time for
$500. The property that Bisbee had in
charge was not 80 valuable. Randall's
horses arrived here on Saturday last.
The prisoners are now in the Grand
Forks Jail and will await the action of
the grand jury.
