THE HORSE DOCKING BILL.
Comm issioners sanction the Passage
of Such Measure.

The District Commissioners yesterday
sent the following report to Mr. Mcmillan,
Chairman OF the Senate Committee on the
District OF Columbia, on Senate bill No.
20aS which refers TO the docking of horses:
The Commissioners have the honor to
return herewith Senate bill 20sS. referred
10 them for report. memorandum Of
changes that should be made in the hill
In the event of its becoming law is en-
closed, and attention is also invited to
the Attorneys definition of the word

cate that the purpose of the bill is to
prevent the cutting of the bone of the tail
OF the horse, and II is recommended that
if the bill becomes law, section ;. indicated
In the memorandum. be included.
There appears to be much difference Of
fpinion in this matter of the docking OF
horses" say the Commissioners. The
Attorney says that he is unable to report
in favor Of the bill while those who are
interested in the prevention of suffering
TO animals claim that il is an inhumau
practice and should be prohibited. and call
the attention of the Commissioners 20 laws
in force elsewhere and urge the passage
of the bill. While IL may be properly
claimed by some that such law would be an
infringement upon their rights as to the
conditions upon which their own horses
should be treated. the Commissioners are
of the opinion. all things considered. that
the greatest good would be accomplished
and the least suffering brought about If
the bill should become a law.

a SUIT FOR HEAVY DAMAGES.
Maurice j. McGrnth's Claim Against
the Capital Traction Company.

The hearing in the suit of Maurice J.
McGrath against the Capital Traction Com
pany for s25 coo. claimed as damages for
personal injuries caused by alleged negli-
gence on the part Of agents of the defend
ant. was begun yesterday before Justice
Cole, sitting for circuit court business The
plaintif. Mr. McGrath is superintendent of
the general delivery in the city postoffice OF
Chicago and was injured in a runaway ac-
cident in this city on June 2, 1897 He
bases his claim for damages on the fact
that the horses were frightened by the
sammng of the trap door at Eighteenth
Street and Boundary. where the change was
made al that time from the underground
to the overhead trolley. He is represented
by Tracy l.. Jeffords, William Woke, a
prominent Chicago lawyer, and Senator
Mason, while Mr.. Dunlop and Perry & Son
represent the road.
Riding with Mr. McGrath at the time OF
the accident were Charles L. Gordon the
present postmaster OF Chicago aud Col
John J. HeaIy, of the same city. Both of
these gentlemen were injured at the same
time. and have brought claims against the
road, and their suits will probably follow

Prof. s. A. Weltmer. the eminent scien-
list of Nevada, Mo, who originated that
Method of Magnetic Healing known as
Weltmerism, and which is endorsed by both
the press and the pulpit, has demonstrated
that disease in a'tf1me.14n'a recent inter
view he stated: "A crime is a breach
whether a breach of moral principles. of
law, or of nature, it is still crime. Now,
disease is a breach of nature, brought on
by either an abuse OF nature or by not fol-
lowing natures edict, and whether This
breach be in commission or in omission,
nature, like the State. demands penalty.
Now, / wish to demonstrate that at the
present time the existing of disease is
double headed crime. first by its appear
ance, second by its continuation. for there
is no disease. no matter how hopeless it
may seem or OF how long standing that
cannot be cured; therefore. to continue in
disease is a crime not only to oneself but
to posterity yet to come. Now. We have
demonstrated by scientific researches that
disease is a product produced by human
hands, and is unnatural therefore. it can
again be remedied by human hands. The
reason that the method which have origi-
mated has had such phenomenal success is
because it1ects in a perfectly natural man
ner, without the aid of either drugs or the
surgeons knife, by going TO the very seat
of the trouble. and placing the constitution
in robust condition, it cures all disease,
no matter whether chronic or acute. Take
for instance. woman who. in the majority
of cases. is placed upon the rack of torture,
simply because those organs which make
her a woman are in an unnatural condi-
ton. Through Weltmerism they are placed
in that condition which nature and God
meant them TO be. thereby dispelling the
pain and agony which so often comes with
the monthly period; it also dispels all dan
ger during that critical period known as
The times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1897-1901, 1900-03-21

change of life. In fact, It is the only posi-
tive cure for all female troubles.
Then again take man in that weakened
condition which is called Lost Manhood
and in my experience have had thousands
of men place themselves under my treat
ment who have been almost drugged 10
death by nostrums they saw advertised, and
| am proud to say that | have been able
to perfect a cure in every instance" We
cannot but believe. with Prof. Weltmer.
that to allow disease to continue is crime.
Our reason for coming to this belief is
that it has now been demonstrated that
there is cure Tor all diseases. For Welt
merism has been given more severe tests
than has any curative power known to
man. and the fact that ii has cured more
than 100000 men and women from every
disease known is positive proof that Welt
merism will cure when all else falls The
most remarka BILE feature about Wetmerism
is that part Known as the Absent Treat
ment which annihilates space and cures
disease. no matter at what distance the pa
tient may live. We take great pleasure in
