STRUCK WITH A SHOVEL
What the Humane Society Proposes

What the Humane Society Proposes
Animals Must be Kindly Treated
The Humane Society has had frequent
complaint of bad treatment OF horses by
teamsters hauling sand, gravel, etc., and
engaged in street and road work. Yes
terday two of the society's thirty-five
special officers, T. M. Woodson and Wall
ter Cooksley, arrested a teamster named
John Norton. on the levee road near
Mouton's place, below the city, where
sand-hauling is engaging large number
Of teams.
Norton was charged with striking his
horse with shovel. He was taken at
once before Justice Henry, pleaded guilty
promptly, and will be sentenced on Fri
day.
The executive officers of the Humane
Society request it to be said that they
hope this case will serve as warning.
They say these faithful work animals,
horses, mans best friend" shall be
humanely treated in this county, and that
the society has the power and the deter
mination to enforce the law.
IL Will not, they say, perSecute or op-
press, nor make the society Paul Pry,
but its arrangements for information are
such that no one need hope escape con-
viction who uses shovels, bats, clubs.
stones ahd the fist in urging horses to
special endeavor.
AS the rainy season is coming on. the
society is resolved to be more strict con-
corning cases where horses are left stand
ing out into late hours uncovered, in
harness, and checked too high. All
members will be in few days provided
with tags, on which will be printed,
This horse has stood too long uncared
for'; or, This horse has stood too long
high checked" Where cases within the
law occur for the first time, one of these
tags, if found on the harness, may be
taken to indicate that the second offense
will bring on arrest. The tags are the
same as those used by the American
Humane Society in the East.

VANTINE CONVICTED

The Court Was Hard to Convince of
the Truth of His story.
John Vantine was tried in the Police
Court yesterday morning on charge of
having entered the room of l.. NJ. Lands
borough at the State House, and taking
80 from his pantaloons pocket while he
was asleep.
The evidence showed that Vantine in
qulred for Landsborough about 6 A. NJ,
and the bell-boy was sent to show him
where the room was.
Nantine swore that he did not go into
the room, but called "Lem!" and heard
Landsborough drowsily answer "What." E"
he turned the knob and opened the door,
but finding the occupant of the room
asleep stopped on the threshold. He went
to get some political cards for distribu-
ton.
Landsborough did not remember being
called or answering, and the court did
not believe Vantine's story; so he was
found guilty, and ordered to appear for
sentence to-day

The prosecution was conducted by
Deputy District Attorney J. Z. Jones.
and Charles L. Jones was the attorney for
the defendants.
Walker was discharged preceding the
taking OF testimony, as he was the in
former against the others. He testified
that he was with the defendants when
arrested, and the principal reason he had
1or informing against his COMPANIONS
was that they had not treated him right
IN a certain transaction, and he took that
method TO get even with them. He
also expected a reward for telling on
them.
The defendants and J. Swanson and w.
Il. McComas testified just opposite Ito
what Walker had testified to. The case
was then argued, and submitted to the

HERE WE GO AGAIN

Nhere Ihere is No Respect for Law
There Is No Safety for Anyone.
Notwithstanding all that has been said,
the passage of an ordinance and the ex-
tended notice of the brush and rubbish
burning nuisance in yesterdays RECORD
UNION, there was blazisg rubbish fire
at half-past last evening on Eighth
street, between X and L, sending out
dense smoke that settled over the section
and penetrated dwellings.
There may be some excuse for officials
when the nuisance is far away. as was
the case Monday night in the south end.
But last nights nuisance was directly
under official noses and the smoke made
ofhclal eyes Smart. No arrests.
