A STRIKING CONTRAST.

The officials of the Red Cross identify depot at
Pretoria have stated that only 300 Beers
killed in fight or died from the effects of their
wounds received in the entire South African war,
while only about 700 died from other causes after
becoming prisoners of war; making total of 400
1t was known that the loss of life by the Beers
was small compared with that of the British in the
uneve struggle that has recently ended, but these
reports from the Red Cross society which are con-

THE SAVING OF WASTE.

The science of utilizing absolutely everything in
hogs, except the squeal brings to mind the produc-
ton of immense value from substances that were
once cast aside as utterly useless.
few years ago the cotton seed of the south were
regarded as than worthless except for repant-
ing and now the products from these seed are equal
to nearly 25 per cent of the crop and are source
of constantly increasing revenue.
In Chicago the sum of $67, 1877 900 is Invested in
the meat packing business and the annual product
is valued at 1856, 527 900. 1t not worth that
amount bv more than $300OO,O00 until the ad-
vance of practical science, modern inventions and
ingenuity brought about by products the utilza-
ton of the former waste matter such as hair blood
bones and various other parts of the animal that
were once burned or thrown away.
The bones of slaughtered cattle used in
the manufacture of toothbrush handles, chess men,
and for whatever purpose ivory used years ago.
These bones are hard, and take very high polish.
The knuckles from the bones are cut off and used
in the manufacture of glue and for fertilizer. The
tips of horns are sawed off split and pressed into fiat
plates used in the manufacture of combs, backs of
brushes large buttons, etc. The tip of thehorn is
also made into mouthpeces for pipes.
Hoofs. which some years ago were thrown-away,
are row sorted into three grades. White hoofs are
sent to Japan, and there used in the manufacture
of various ornaments; striped hoofs are worked up
into buttons and horn ornaments black hoofs are
used in the manufacture of cyanide of potassium for
gold extraction, and are also ground up to make a
fertilizer for the of florists grape growers and
others.
Glvcerme which was once waste and was left to
flow into drains or rivers, is now worth much as
50 900 a week to some establishments. Marrow,
meats foot OIL glue and soap very valuable by
products of the packing houses. Though we have

WHAT Is CRUELTY TO A MULE.

At jury trial held in the municipal Police Court
of jamestown. n. Y, it was apparently decided
that the laws which have been framed for the pre-
yention of cruelty to animals do not apply to the
mule.
Expert testimony furnished by veterinary sur
geons, horsemen of standing in the community and
teamsters long familiar with the physical and tenn
peramenta qualities of the mule and the horse
proved the satisfaction of the jury that treatment
which if applied to a horse might justly be termed
brutal merely diverting to the mule. The trial,
which resulted in the acquittal of the defendant.
brought forth certain medlcO-ega facts which
probably have never been debated before.
Some time ago James Bailey, a teamster IN the
acquittal of the defendant, brought forth certain

tonly beat the mule with club six feet long and
four inches thick"
At the trial A. Frank jerks, attorney for the So
ciety for the prevention of Cruelty to Animals,
proved that the load of coal which the mus refused
to tackle weighed 1000 pounds. This weight, the
attorney asserted, was too great for one pair of
mules to haul up hill and if for no other the
jury should return verdict of guilty.
To offset this testimony the defence called to the
stand the Oldest and most experienced teamsters IN
the city. Each of these witnesses swore that,
whereas it might be cruel to attempt to compel
team of horses weighing 1900 pounds to haul load
of a ton and half under the conditions described
n man would he perfectly justified in asking two
750-pound mules to negotiate the same task
After Mr.. jerks had placed the women witnesses
on the stand and each had testified that she had
seen Bailey strike the mule at least six times across
the hack and shoulders, Fank L. Mott, counsel for
the defense called Dr. Bender, veterinary surgeon
Both by education and experience DR.. Bender is
above the ordinary class of country "hoss doctors
He testified that the punishment of the mule,
even as it had been described by the prosecution,
was by no means brutal. A mule, he asserted, was
different mentally morally and physically from al
most any other beast of burden.
The mule was given to rebellion against authority
if it could avoid it, it would not give adequate
return for its board and lodging 1t less sensi-
tive than horse and readily forgot indighites and
abuse.
So far as physical punishment was concerned,
Dr. Bender contended that the animals thick skin
made it practically immune from any acute suffer-
ing which could be inflicted upon it with club.
He had examined the mule soon after it beaten
and did not see that it had been ill-treated
Later in the trial 1t brought out that the ami
NAL was balky and this led to the interesting ques-
ton as to the cause of balkness and as to whether
a man was ever warranted in whipping an animal
given to this fault.
The prosecution held that baking or 'gibbmg,"
was mental disorder caused by i'll treatment and
uninteligent handling when the victim was a colt
Cases were cited in which animals beaten because
they had refused pass objects of terror to theil
Young ewes had become hysterical and by continued
i'll abuse this condition had become chronic and the
animal, through no fault of its own, had become
what is termed balky horse.
The defense held that balkness was not a chronic
disorder; that it was caused by the same innate
cussedness that sometimes makes man turn against
the friend who has cared for him in his adversely
Witnesses were produced who swore that they haC
owned balky mules and the only way they coulC
