TO PUNISH THE PRESIDENT.
:, T.. G. 4. People on the Docking OF
His Horses Tails.

The announcement that all the horses in
President Cl,.vclanIs stables have mad
their t.liis locked has caused considerable
fcr,nrnt among the officers of the Society
FOR The prcyen OF Cruelty to Animals
at New York.
John c. Haynes, president of the S. p.
c. A., VIXEN seen at his Office at the head
quarters of the society, in West I'D street,
yesterday. was outspoken in his opinion OF
what he deemed an outrage. Mr.. Haynes
engaged in reading a letter he had just
received from the Princess of Wales, com
mending him for the good work done by
the society.
When he was asked if he had heard that
President Cleveland had caused the tails
Of the White House horses to be dockcd,
Mr.. Hayes dropped the letter and eX
claimed, with considerable surprise:
1T can't be possible!'
Whea-assured that the report came from
a good source, Mr. Haynes said: Then
the President shall be punished! He is just
as amenable to the laws of this country
as any other citizen, and if II Is true that
re has been instrumental in having the
tails of the White House horses docked L
shall take immediate steps 20 see that he
is duly punished. l must say, though, that
L am not so much surprised.
"A President of the United States who
finds great pleasure in the shooting OF
squirrels is quite capable of the inhuman-
ity of having his horses tails locked. But
if he has done so / shall make it my bust
ness to see that justice is melted out to
him. The docking Of horses tails is against
the law Of the District of Columbia, and
numbers of people have been punished for
violating it,
Mr.. Haynes said he would communicate
with the president of the Washington HUI
name Society, and If evidence could be Sc
cured would endeavor to have President
Cleveland fined.

ISOLATION OF the Metropolitan A. NJ. E.
Church held its opening meeting in the
auditorium OF that church Tuesday night.
The announcement that Frederick Douglass

The Origin. Existence and History of

Mr.. douglass discussed the subject of the
origin OF slavery, and claimed that the
Constitution sntedated the Christian era.
He spoke OF the different races who had
felt the banefuI effects of slavery, and
said that the Angio-Saxon race-the boast
ed race OF the worlds civilization-at one
time wore about its neck the yoke of
slavery. Other races who had been slaves
We're also discussed.
Passing from remote periods. he talked
of the history OF American slavery. He
said that no slavery had been more bitter
or more abominabie than existed here.

SCHAEFER on HIS DEFEAT,
Says Ives Played the Better Billiards
and Won Fairly.

Jacob Schaefer has returned to Chicago
He says the only reason for his defeat In
New York last week was that Ives played
the best billiards. He claimed that he was
not feeling well. but he had no complaint
to make. He thought 1t rather tough, how
ever to be beaten with an average Of Al,
which is better than any previous winning
average. He reports that Ives great run
of 331 was made almost entirely on the
lines and by position play, and that scarce
ly ten shots were made with the balls in
the anchor" position. All of Schaefers
large runs were made without it's aid, and
he thinks that under the present rules
large runs are impossible unless made by
'line" play and open table" billiards.
Another remarkable thing about the game
is the fact that only one miscue was made
during the six nights play, and that was
made by Schaefer the first night. He at
tributes this to the blue chalk, which, he
thinks, is far superior to the German
chalk which has previously been used. lie

Speaking OF the London dispatch in yes
terday's Star that pleuro- pneumonia had
been found in American cattle, DR.. Salmon,
chief OF the bureau of animal industry,
says: I'VE will be greatly surprised If this
is proven to be a case of uro-pneumonia.
There has been no pleuro-pneumonia in
this country for eighteen months. All
cattle shipped, particularly at this time of
year, are subject to exposure at sea, and
they frequently contract pneumonia during
the voyage. occasionally the foreign OFF,
Gals think they have discovered pleuro-
pneumonia but on investigation, the case
is proved to be ordinary pneumonia, which
is very different from pleuro-pneumonia,
and not at all dangerous. Doubtless this
will turn out to be case of that sort"
