comes into court with insufficient proof or
with proof that is overwhelmingly met by
the other side, the court is not going to
convict. / certainly do not like the article
referred to and the prosecuting attorney

certainly not convict on such proof. AS
have already said, these cases are tried
the same as all others, and the charges
must be proven beyond a reasonable
doubt"
There was a false statement in Mr.
Stowelfs article" said Superintendent Todd
OF the railroad company. I'm the case he
cited the two veterinary surgeons did not
say that the horses were unfit for labor
but. on the other hand, they said they were
fit for labor"
These veterinarians he added, were called
by the company.
Judge kimball closed the case by saying
that II the secretary would hear some Of
the cases brought into court by the So
ciety's agents he would have am entirely

Excise Board Considering the KoxeI
Case.
The excise board will hold its next meet
ing on January 3, when testimony in the
cases of John T. Clark, 1922 7th street
southwest, and James j. Reed, $500 M
street, will be heard. The board will also
on that day pass upon a number of the
cases that have been heard by them in
the past few days.
The case Of George F. kozel, proprietor
OF summer garden on 14th street be-
tween and streets, will be considered
having been brought before the board on a
charge OF selling to minors. 1t is charged
that good many very youthful-looking
bicycle girls have imbbed beer In Kozers
garden. their short bicycle garb and jaun-
" caps adding to their juvenile appear
ance. The very delicate question of the
ages OF these patrons of the garden will
have to be considered by the board but
1t is said the attorneys for the proprietor
Oh the garden are prepared to produce
evidence that short skirts and jaunty caps
do not figure In a question of what consti-
tutes minor. and that family Bibles will
show that things are not what they
SEEM. A report having been spread that
some of these young ladies known to have
frequented KoZers may be called upon to
prove their ages has created CONSERVATION
In some quarters.
The most serious violation of law which
1t may be proven has taken place at the
garden was brought out by Col. Bates a
member of the board, and that was wheth-
er the license granted Kozel permits the
selling Of liquor on the lot adjoining his
saloon. license covers only the prem
ises on which the liquor is to be sold and
it is probable that Mr.. Kozel will be re-
quired to take out an additional license for
the garden adjoining his saloon.
The excise board now has about seventy
five cases of applications for licenses be-
fore 1t for action, having granted about
400 licenses.

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.
Judge kimbaIl Makes Some Comments
u Com IN u n ton.


This morning in the Police Court during
the trial of W. S. Ballenger stable boss of
the lexington and Soldiers Home and Belt
Line stables. for alleged cruelty to animals,
Judge Kimball took occasion TO make some
remarks in response 20 communication
from Corresponding Secretary Stowel of
the Humane Society, printed in The Star
a few days ago. MIR. Balenger. it was
charged. sent from the stable an animal
alleged to have been unfit for labor. Agent
Rabbit complained that because of the ami
mails interfering its leg was cut. This was
his opinion of the cause of the cut, and 1t
was also his opinion that the sore on the
leg was one that had not been made the
day on which he saw the animal.
Mr. Ballenger testified that so far as he
kr ew the animal had never interfered be-
fore. and there was no occasion for the
arrest. The animal had cut its leg with
shoe. but such an accident was likely to oc-
cur to any animal at eny time.
His evidence was corroborated by the
Sriver. and he said he had four more wit
eesses to disprove the charge made by
Agent Rabbit.
Judge Kimball however said that there
was no necessity for hearing further proof.
The evidence showed that when the animal
left the stable there was nothing the mat
ter with it, and this relieves the stable
boss.
Several cases against the railroads, the
judge said. had been tried lately. and he
had disposed of them according to the law
and the evidence.
Il noticed in The Star few days ago."
said the judge, 1.-The communication from
Mr. Stowell. and this is about as good a
time to speak of il any other"
The judge said that Mr. Stowell had ar
raigIed the court for dismssing cases and
imposing small fines and that his criticism
was unjust. The trouble is the Judge
said. that the societys agents come into
court with cases without the proper proof,
and with this insufficient proof expect the
court tc hold the defendants. The charge
of cruelty 10 animals is criminal charge
and mt ST be proven the same as any other
charge When cases of this kind are
brought into court and it is shown that
the court Will impose fines commensurate

Upon the amended petition of John NJ

Mr.. Lewis TO produce before him at IL
O'Clock next Monday morning Myrtle
Grimsley, otherwise known as Mildred

petitioners claimed to have adopted under
an agreement with the board, January %,

The petitioners complain that although
1t was agreed that the little girl should re-
main with them until she reached the age
Of eighteen years. Agent Lewis, October /,
1896 took the child from the Peabody
School, where it was in attendance without
cause and without notice to them. They
say that there Is no good reason why the
child should have been taken from them,
and they charge that they have unsuccess-
fully exhausted every effort to obtain a
hearing before the board. They pray,
therefore, that Mr.. Lewis be required to
return the child to them or show cause to
the court why he should not do so.
