France Has Substitute for the britisl
 Cat O Nine Tails.

France Has 2 Substitute for the British
 Cat O Nine Tails.
 Some of the French newspapers have been telling about the new method of whipping men which had just been introduced experimentally into some of the penitentiaries and colonies of France. The instrument bears the pleasing name of .'the electric cat" and PElectrician expresses the scientific opinion that it is great improvement ppon the Russian knout and the cat c nine tails, which, it says, still unfor. tunately figures in many penal colo- n1es and in the penitentiaries of so- called civilize1 states. The method of this new whipping machine is very simple and business-like. The culprit who has been sentenced to undergo the lash Is tied to post in the usual man. her. Behind him is a wheel driven by an electric motor, which goes round with a velocity that is unpleasant for the victim. The velocity may be regus lated, however, according to the sever- ity of the trouncing to be admins tered. Attached to one of the spokes is a whip which swings around the circle and the culprit is placed at such an angle with reference to the instru- ment Of fagellation that every time it comes around it nips him squarely on the back. It is claimed for the new invention that it dispenses justice im- partially and equally. It has no anil mus against the prisoner, it's blows are given with equal intensity, and 1t bet ter fulflls the idea of even. handed justice than manual flogging, which ia likely to distribute penalties very ur- evenly. .--Philadelphia Times.
