THE DOG PoIsoNER.
Said to Be Well Known Society Wo
man-ls Crime Under Statutes.

Said to Be Well Known Society Wo-
man-Is Crime Under Statutes.
GFrom Fridays Daily.7
A well known society woman of this
city, is said to be responsible for the
recent premature demise of several
fine hunting dogs whose death has
been occasioned by poison surrepti-
tiously administered. The statute
makes such an act a penitentiary Of
Tense and owners of fine hunting dogs
have raised fund of 500 independ-
ent of the reward OF $100 offered by
F. B. Clark to prosecute the matter.
They say they have the residence of
the guilty person narrowed down to a
certain block and have under suspi-
cion certain woman whom, they say,
has a decided antipathy for dogs of
all breeds and uses the poison route
with unpleasing frequency and start
ling regularity.
Owners of fine hunting dogs are up
in arms about it and say that they
will use every means to fasten the
crime upon the guilty person. A
prominent Ottumwa attorney who is
somewhat of a fisherman and hunter
stated to Courier reporter that he
had lost dogs that have cost him $3.50
within the last ten years. He stated
that it was a crime to poison dogs and
in support of his statement cited sec.
ton 4S1S of the code which says
II any person maliciously kills
mains or disfigures any horse, cattle
or other domestic beast of another
or maliciously administer poison to
any such animal; or expose any poi
sonous substance with intent that the
same shall be taken by such animal
he shall be imprisoned in the peni
Tertiary not exceeding five years, OF
imprisoned in the county Jail not ex
ceeding one year or be fined not ex.
ceeding $780,"
The whole matter hinges on the
definition of the word animal" as
used in the above section as to wheth
er or not it includes dogs. The OF
tumwa attorney thinks it does and
cites AnderSon's law, dictionary which
says that an animal sis any irration
al being as distinguished from man
In a common sense not bird or q
fowl"
1t was reported yesterday evening
that well known family on NORTH
Wapello street had lost the famil.
pet by the poison method and today
still another case is reported on Wes
Second street. 1t might be just as
we'll to whisper into Fido's ear to cal
nothing thrown to him by well dress
ed women whose acquaintance he
does not enjoy.

Company Gets n Letter.
When the party that left Beaulieu last

cold and hunger, Capt. Jacob Paulsen,
president of the Towboat Company, was
advised of the circumstances and at once
placed one of the company's tugs at the
disposal of the anxious parents of those
about whose safety there was much grave
doubt. Those whom Capt. Paulsen served
were very grateful for his kindness, as
the following letter witnesses:
capt. Jacob Pauisen, President Tow
boat Company, Savannah, Ga: Dear Sir
Your generous action in placing at our
disposal one of your. tugs at a time when
our children were not only in peril, but
their fate a question of the greatest anx-
iety, calls for more than a formal ac-
acknowledgement. 1t is almost impossible to
exaggerate the strain under which we were
and which was relieved by your prompt
and kind act We beg that you will ac-
cept the assurance of our grateful appre-
citation of what you have done, as well
as of the generous and considerable i'm
pulse which moved YOU.
Trusting that you may never experience
any part of the apprehensions from which
you enabled us to escape, we are, yours
very truly
