MAY sHOOT TIE CATS.
A Philadelphia Judge Says It is Law

A Philadelphia Judge Says It is Law
ful When They're Out Nights.
A Philadelphia judge has settled a ques-
tion that is Of interest not only to Ssvan-
nahians but TO law-abiding citizens gener-
ally. 1t has long been an unsettled question
whether a man may fire bootjacks at or
shoot that enemy of the nocturnal repose-
the other mans cat
Philadelphia man was charged with
shooting his neighbours family cat. The
prosecutor charged that the cat was
wounded and left TO die. The other man
claimed that the cat was trespassing on his
lawn at night, where It was wont to move
the vocal air with burst of song and he had
right to shoot the feline. Instead OF the
traditional bootjack be got his gun and
killed II outright, the cat surrendering the
whole nine ghosts at once.
In charging the jury the judge said: This
bill OF indictment charges the defendant
with unlawfully and cruelty ill-treatiDg and
abusing an animal called cat have only
to say gentlemen, that citizen has right
to kill an animal of this kind IL iL trespasses
on his premises. Perhaps there is no domes-
tic animal that makes mora trouble in tho
nelghborhood than a cat. II this cat was
trespassinR on this mans place he had
right to kill it, and the only question for you
to determine Is whether he shot the cat be-
cause it was trespassing upon his premises,
or whether he shot it for the purpose of in
juring it. IL he shot 10 kill the cat, and for
that reason alone, then you ought to acquit
him. II he shot it not for the purpose Of
Kidding himself of what seemed to him a
nuisance, then he ought to be convicted. In
other words, he has a right TO kill a cat for
trespassing, but he has no right 10 injure 1t
merely for the purpose of giving It pain, or
anything OF that kIndn
The jury rendered verdict of not guilty.
Many suffering Savannahiaus who have
been driven half crazy by their neighbours
cats on the back fence during the dead and
Silly hours OF night may profit by the de-
cisiou OF the Philadelphia court and lessen
the cat family materially.

OF course, It adds, the average number
of persons carried to each casualty is a
fairer test of comparative safety, and yet
the milage operated is a very important
consideration. A train on long run has
more chances Of accident than on short
run. 1t is little satisfaction therefore to
find that, judged IN proportion to their
mileage, assuming the table to be approx
mately correct, the railways Of the United
States make a better showing than those
of Great Britain, though much less favor

He'd tramped or driven over large
portion of the farm, had passed judg-
ment on the richness of the soil, and
had talked of the purchase of some
improved machinery. Altogether he
was very favorably impressed, and
announced that he had about made
up his mind to buy the land. Then
he noticed little pool of bubbling
water.
What's that" he asked quickly.

popular sense of truth and right,
and is prolific source of evil. 1t
colrupts the public conscience, and,
as directly affecting the morals of
