Not Knocked Out After All.

The reports which came over the
river yesterday relative to the alleged
fi5tic exhibition between Mr.. Peters
and Yardmaster Mccormack, stated
that the cattleman had been laid out.
The gentlemen called at the HERALD
Office this morning to deny the allega-
ton. He stated no blow had been
struck by either party, and that the
cause of the entire trOuble was a per-
sistent attempt on the part of the yard
master to impress him with the idea
that he had once paid fine OF S25 for
running a train OF cattle across the
river without the proper papers from the
custom house. Mr.. Peters looked the
matter up and found he never paid a
cent of line, but on almost every train
of cattle which cane in there was a de-
lay. The yardmaster gave as an eX-
cuse he was waiting for orders, which
Mr.. Peters knew was not true as the
custom house men were there, and said
the sto * was ready TO go over, which
was at I a. IN. He then took the en-
gine back TO the house and tod Super
intendent DOlan it WAS unable to pull
the train owing to lack of steam; but
Mr.. Peters thought it was "A lack of the

arrogance stopped, aad has laid the

Professor Warman.

Professor Warmau furnished great
entertainment for one hundred people
last night in the Y. M. G. A, by his
character sketches and recitations. One
of the impressions was "the man with
a toothache," and so literal was he in
this, that a worthy citizen in the Nun
dy building adjoining who had gone to
bed with his window up, thought Their
was some one being murdered down in
the alley, and called loudly for the
police.
The professor has a class in psyche
logy tonight in the Y. NJ. @. A. He
does not make this study as we find it
in such ponderous tones as "Porter on
the Human Intellect" but presents it
in more attractive and popular
light.

"To,the victors no longer belong the

friend yesterday. Il intended TO APP
ply for place under the Mckinley ad-
ministratiOn ard had all my petltoas
made out and signed up and every
thing was in such shape that L was sure
of getting the office, when one day all
hopes and ambition in that direction
were shattered. Grover Cleveland had
placed the Office in the civil service
list and it is now filed by a young man
who will likely hold it for forty years.
Cleveland is putting his friends in fast
and thick and putting them in positions
from which the incoming president
can't remove them. If the president
keeps up the lick all the gold democrat

81 see q number of papers are urging
the incoming administration to adopt
reciprocity treaty with Canada. SAID
a traveller last night. Very few OF
them are urging reciprocity with Mex
leo, the republic to the south that IS
forging to the front so fast. While L
believe in keeping on the very friend
lest terms with all nations and have
prejudice against none, [ am fully con-
WINGED that in a commercial way
reciprocity with Mexico would be of
great advantage to this country. Mex
leo produces the raw material required
in this country, while it furnishes a
good and growing market for the man
ufactured articles, and [ am fully con-
WINGED that reciprocity would be more
to the advantage of the United States
than it would to Mexico, for the simple
reason that capital is fast being in
vested in that country and factories
are being enlarged and new ones built
to such an extent that in a few years
that republic will be independent of
other nations in regard to manufactured
goods. Then again only the friendliest
feelings prevail for Americans in Mex
leo: They look upon the American as
being the most desirable immigrant TO
their country and initiate their pro-
gressive ways in agriculture and the
trades. American machinery is most
ly used in the mines: and the English
language. next to their own, is the one
most diligently studied. If there are
any reciprocity treaties made by the
new administration Mexico should not
be left out. "

An individual styling himself John

tian, malicious and uncalled for attack
on Round About in a morning paper.
All this is because somebody has told
John the Baptist" that something APP
peared in the Round About Town col
umn that never did appear there nor as
far as Round About knows never appear
ed in any other column of the HERALD.
To Round About the column and a half
article sounds like the vaporings of

lieve it was written by minister Of the
gospel, but has all the ear marks Of be-

mated in his brain, nor did they ever
appear in the columns OF the HERALD,

CRUELTY TO HORSES.

One of the most reputable liv-
ery-men said yesterday: Il have
handled many horses In many
places, but / have nowhere seen SO
much cruelty practiced towards
them, as | see constantly in this
town"
There is a reason for this excep-
tional cruelty. The natives are
thoughtless; the Chinese and Jap
anese know little about animals
And the foreigners" have become
so accustomed to the daily exhibi-
tions of brutality in its minor
forms, they regard them with the
same complacency as a butcher
looks upon bleeding and dying ami
mails. No doubt there are many
humane people here, the largest
MAJ jority are so, but when an abuse,
habit, a course of doing things is
established, it is hard for the com
munity to readjust its ways.
Horses suffer great pain from
imperfect shoeing. They suffer
also, from the growth of the hoof,
after the shoe has remained on the
foot for over a month, it is said.
"Corns" are distinctly visable in
many cases. In some cases, lame
ness indicates suffering. In many
other cases, the pain is not evident.
To prevent these innumerable
acts of cruelty, no preaching is of
any consequence. The police only,
the power of the law, must inter
fere, punish and educate.
Whether the failure to provide
horses with shoes, is an act of cruel
ty depends upon the facts. Many
men, humane and familiar with
horses, do not shoe them in the
country district. Others do. No
law compels the shoeing of horses.
But if can be proved in any given
case, that the want of shoes causes
the horse to actually suffer, the
penalty of the law is at once in
Cured. 1t is against actual, not
possible, cruelty that the law pro-
vides.
