An Authority Claims Prejudice Prohibits
lts General Uee,

An Authority Claims Prejudice Prohibits
Its General Use.
Everybody il aware that the horse is
the cleanest Of all domestic animals. II
will not eat anything but good, healthy
food, nor drink any but pure water. A
horse would rather starve than swill
the rotten stuff often given to pigs and
cattle. It il nothing but prejudice that
prevents us from eating horsefesh.
A similar prejudice retarded the in.
PRODUCTION Of the potato 100 years ago.
Today we could not get along without
it. Yet the prejudice against potatoes
can be explained. The people had been
told that this American root caused
fever and rendered the ground unfit for
all other crops. The exception against
horseflesh is not even founded upon any
objection to its properties. II is solely
due to the influence Of the church. The
clergy did everything possible to pre-
vent the newly converted Saxons from
returning to their heathenish practices
and prohibited the use Of horseflesh to
stop the sacrifices to Odin and Thor. A
long time passed before these sacrifices
were altogether discontinued.
The nations Of Europe have suffered
enormous loss by this prohibition Of
horsehesh. Especially from the humani.
tartan point Of view the results are most
deplorable. Millions Of people are forced
to live ON potatoes and similar food
wanting in nutritive qualities, while
millions Of pounds Of the very best meat
are wasted. Horseflesh is the most
nourishing Of all meats, and it's taste is
hardly to be distinguished from that Of
beef. The flesh of a horse fed on oats
has smell similar to goosedesh. The
fat is preferable to lard Above all, il
should be remembered that no flesh il
30 healthy as that Of the horse. Trichi
nosis and similar diseases are unknown
in horses. tuberculosis, very common
in cattle. is very rare in horses Prank

Last Monday Samuel Black, a half
witted fellow who has been living for a
short time with Bartholomew Sharp, near
Wright's mill, was shot through the
hand while attempting to escape from
Constable Dilks. The crime for which
Black was arrested was an a~trooious
assault and attempted outrage upon An
mabel Stiles, a young girl living at Hard
ingviile. On Thursday of last week,
Annabel was returning.home from a visit
at her u~ncle's, near Glassboro, and while
passing a clump of timber on the road
she was met by Black, who assaulted her
in the most brutal manner. Her screams
brought no assistance, and it was only
after q struggle, in which nearly all her
clothing was torn off, that she escaped
and ran to a house in the vicinity. A
warrant was placed in Constable Dilks'
hands, and on Monday morning Black
was captured coming out Of a swamp
near Mr.. Sharp's residence. The pris-
oner was allowed to go into the house
after some articles of clothing, and seized
the opportunity to slip out of the back
door and run for the swamp. The con-
stable and several others present started
in pursuit, and a young man in the party
finally ended the chasesby a shot from his
revolver that took effect In the'prisoner's
hand. Black was subsequently taken to
Woodbury. and landed in the county Jail.
He will be likely to get the full extent of
the law, as he, has already served a term
in prison for a similar offence in Salem
county.
