Property In Dogs

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April 2l.-In the all
nuy appellant" the supreme court of this
State has decided that dogs may be stolen.
Not, however, with impunity. On the con-
traTy, the majority of the bench has ruled
that there is such thing as property in
four-footed beasts of the canine kind and
that the law passed to bring about this con-
dition in 1889 does not offend against the
Constitution of Pennsylvania. The decision
Of the Lackawanna county court is sustain
ed.
It seems that one Depuy male of with a
spaniel dog of great value viz: ofthe val
ne Of $50" and when branded as a thief,
claimed that there was no law in the State
making dogs personal property.
Says the supreme court: I'VE need not
discuss the rule of the common law upon
this subject, nor its wisdom. The case turns
upon the act of May 18th 1859. P. L. ODD, en-
titled an act for the taxation of dogs and
the protection Of sheep, the sixth section Of
which provides: That all dogs in the CON-
monwealth shall hereafter be personal prop
erty, and subject to larceny, etc II is ar
gued that this act was unconstitutional, for
the reason that the said provision of section
SIX IS not fully expressed in the title of the
act. We ecannot assent to this proposition.
One Of the objects Of the act, as expressed in
the title, is the taxation of dogs Hence.
when the legislature seeks to lay tax upon
WHIST was not property at the common law,
we think it entirely germane 10 the object OF
the act to declare that the property taxed
shall hereafter be personal property and a
subject Of larcenv.'i

ton and the fact that they could live but a

raise the topof the bed, but to no effect.
Finally they becomo 50 weak from flight

the noise had come from. Entering the
room occupied by The girls he discovered the

other was but little hetier, and it required

SAN FRAxcIsco, Cal, April 2i.-Another
sharp earthquake this morning did consid-
erable damage throughout the Sacramento
Valley, and spread dismay in the towns OF
vacayille, Winters, Woodland and Dixon,
which were already in ruins. The shock
lasted only about % seconds, but in that
time it made things very lively in the towns
mentioned, and also caused great alarm and
considerable damage.
AT Sacramento, the State capital, the cell
ing Of the capital building was cracked and
a plaster statue was hurled from the cor
nice. In Winters the shock was heaviest
aud business was entirely suspended. Some
of the buildings already shattered by the
first shock fell to the ground and the main
streets look picture Of ruin.
In Dixon people are also panic-stricken
and many refuse to sleep in their houses,
preferring to camp in open lois. Only two
or three brick buildings in town are safe.
The occupants of brick buildings which ex-
perienced shocks yesterday moved out to-
day. Every available mechanic and laborer
is at WORK attempting to clear away the
wreckage and take down condemned build
ings.
In Woodland the shock was more severe
than the one Monday night. This morn
ing's shock caused about fifty feet Of wall of
the Capitol Hotel TO iall to the side walk.

I agreed On those conditions and my cam
psign was carried out on that plan. Ny
