DASTARDLY ACT.

Household.

y Burglar Plays sad Havoc With n
Household.
About o'clock yesterday morning
Mrs. Charles Leighton, who resides on X
street, between Twelfth and Thirteenth,
left her home temporarily to visit neigh
Dor and when she returned a sight met
her gaze that well nigh paraIyzed her.
All the furniture in the house was
turned topsy-turvy, the bedding pulled
from the beds and scattered about the
floor, as also were the contents of the
bureau drawers. Even the carpets were
cut and slashed and half-torn from the
floors.
After gazing in establishment for mo-
ment ut the work of destruction, Mrs.
Leighton noticed that the rear door stood
open, and she fastened to see if anyone
was there. AS she passed through the
house man, who had been concealed
somewhere, rushed out the front door
and escaped before Mrs. Leighton could
summon help from the neighbors.
An examination showed thai. while
the burglar had lett nothing unturned in
his search for valuables, nothing of value
was missing, Mrs. Leighton having taken
the precaution to leave no money in the
house when she went out.

CRUELTY TO A HORSE.
How Two Ladies Brought the Offender
to Justice.

How Two Ladies Brought the Offender
to Justice.
In the proceedings of the Police Court
for yesterday it will be seen that one
Charles Brady was convicted of cruelty
to q horse, but the story of Brady's cruel
treatment of his horse and the manner
of his arrest has not yet been told. 1t
appears that the latter was accomplished
by two ladies, Mrs. +. L. circuit and
Mrs. w. ID. Lawton.
These ladies saw Brady trying to urge a
lame horse along, and beating him be-
cause he could not move fast enough to
suit him. They saw that the hoof ON one
of the horses hind feet was worn or
broken of beyond the quick, and that it
was simply torture for the poor animal
to put his foot on the ground.
They demanded that he cease beating
the horse, and threatened to arrest
him if he persisted in trying to
drive the animal. Brady laughed
at the idea of woman arresting
him, and even when Mrs. Lawton pro-
duced her badge of authority as an officer
of the Humane Society, he refused to con-
slider himself under arrest.
Mrs. circuit then fastened to her tele-
phone and called on the neighborhood
butcher, who is also an officer of the So
ciety, and he was soon on the ground and
placed BRADY under arrest. The latter
went along peaceabiy until near the DO
lice station, where he rebelled, and ON
Ger McManus came out and assisted in
landing him in the hobo cell.
There the prisoner made another kick,
intimating that the other inmates of the
cell harbored vermin about their per-
sons. The insulted hobos then turned on
Brady, and before the officers could res
cue him they had done him up in great
style.
In the meantime veterinary surgeon
McLane was sent for, and after liking up
the suffering horses foot as well as posi-
BILE the equine patient was removed TO
the barn of W. d. Lawton, Secretary of
the Humane Society, where it Will re-
main until its foot shall have healed sulfi-
GENTLY 10 enable it to travel.
Perhaps after while the class of per-
sons who have been accustomed 10 deal
out brutal treatment TO dumb creatures
will realize that the Humane Society is in
il for keeps.

AND YET ANOTHER.
The report of the State Board of Health
for February of this year-the very

shows that Sacramento, with population
OF $4,000, had 80 deaths, while san Jose,
with her 5000 people, had % deaths; or
only ten less than Sacramento, with but
little over one-half the population of the
latter.

and the whoopers-up. for San Jose to say
to these figures?
