baric and Agent Adams Tries a Poi

Prussic acid is not destructive to dogs
in the opinion of John Adams, agent Of
the Humane society, whose hsmane
duty 1t is to kill off animals whose con-
dition does not render existence pleas
ant. A.
Every day the agent of the society is
called upon to kill some poor horse or
dog for which existence has become a
burden. The usual method of exter-
minatton has been the use Of Al Colts,
but some members Of the society be-
lieve this method too barbarous.
!, Agent Adams thought Of pr.ussic acid,
that fatal drug drop of which is sup
upon a man. It was cyanide of 'potas-
sium, form of prussic acid with which
Whitlake Wright, the convicted Eng
lish swindler made his dramatic exit.
Mr.: Adams decided on the prussic acid
method.
He was called upon to take a dog
from Northeast Minneapolis. The ami
NAL was a paralytic and was annoying
a resident by crawling. up on a front
porch where it would lie in it's helpless
agony for hours. Mr.. Adams put the
dog. in his carriage and drove to the
pG,Gfket' pcs Mr.. Adams tells the story him
1T gave that animal spoonful Of
it, he said, "and he began to sit up
and. take notice. I waited for him to
expire with terrible suddenness. He
didn It.. He wagged his tail and seemed
to want more. T poured another spoon
full down his throat. AS sure as + am
alive that dog, got up on its, feet and
licked my hand and looked at me with
piteous appeal, presumably for more.
"I poured out another spoonful and
decided that if this didn It take effect
I would have to shoot it. But did II
I. guess not. That paralytic animal
simply cavorted around and then ran
away from me. <
"Next morning the telephone at the
Humane society, rang.

Mr.. Adams made another trip and
