Shall We Get Rid of the Cats?

There has been great deal said and
written against the pernicious practice
of killing song birds with shotgun and
rifle, and the healthy. adverse senti-
ment TO this destructive policy has
borne good effect for the preservation
of the little singers OF the forest"
John Burroughs, than whom there is
no more widely known lover and friend
of animals, has declared himself in
emphatic terms when he refers to an.
other far more destructive agency for
the elimination of song birds-that is,
the domestic cat OF so many house,
holds. In an outdoor magazine of great
prestige, Mr.. Burroughs recently af-
firmed that the feline is more to be
blamed for the wiping out of our feath-
cred pets than all other factors COM
blned. 1t has been carefully estimated
that the cats of New England alone kill
250,000 birds year.
MIR. Burroughs writes that the ladies'
of the Audubon societies who CRY out
against wearing feathers in hats, will
keep supply of cats that do more
damage than all the milliners in the
country. Every spring thousands of
city families go to the country. leaving
their household pets in the shape of
cats behind them. These Cats, left to
their own resources, become vicious and
savage in their search for food 0ittle
wonder it is) and thus bring up litters
of real wildcats the following year.
Quail hunters in the Hudson Valley
shoot all cats on sight, and the Stevens
Firearms are naturally the logical
weapons for the defense of the song
birds. The campaign of education
which the makers OF the famous Stevens
rifles, pistols and shotguns, the j.
Stevens Arms and Tool Co., of Chico
pee Falls, Mass, have waged in favor
of the preservation of song birds, has
resulted in sparing the lives of thou
sands of tine little helpless beings. 1t
has assisted, TOO, in Kidding the various
sections of the country of this danger.
Gus feline, which has, unfortunately,
become wild because of heartless neg.
lect, and must OF necessity be extermi-
nated. Poisoning these cats is imprac-
tical and hence out of the question.
Stevens Firearms make surest and
shortest shrift of superhuous cats of
the style alluded to.

Law Fixing Working Day at 10 Hours
Declared Unconstitutional

By bare majority of one, the supreme
court of the United States held on Mon
day that the New York state law, making
10 hours a days work and co hours a
weeks work in the bakeries Of that state
was unconstitutional. Incidentally an
opinion by Judge Alton B. Parker was re-
Versed.
Justice Peckham delivered the opinion
and concurring with him were Chief Jus
tice Fuller and Justices Brewer, Brown
and McKenna, Justices Harlan, White
Day and Holmes dissented At the same
time Justice Harlan expressed the opin-
ion that no more important decision had
been rendered by high court Of law in
the last century.
The majority opinion declaring the
law unconstitutional takes the ground
that the statute of the state OF New York
interferes with the free exercise of the
rights of contract between employer and
employed, and between all individuals
The case in question came from Oneida
county and was that of Lockner vs. the
state of New York. The New York court
of appeals sustained the law and affirmed
the judgment OF the trial court, which had
found Lockner guilty of violation because
he made contracts for hours of work ex-
ceeding the limit prescribed by state
statutes. Judge Alton b. Parker wrote
the opinion Of the New York court of ap-
peals sustaining the law and his court
divided four to three on the question Of
its validity.

He VIII, However, Finish the School Year
Here-salem School Numbers About 600
Pupils.
The school board of the city Of Salem,
Mass, elected IL. X. Whitaker, principal
of the Brattleboro high school, to be prin-
cipal Of the city high school of Salem at
a meeting held Monday evening. The
election came as a surprise to Mr.. Whta-
ker to a certain extent. Last November
the Salem school board asked him IL he
would consider the question of going
there and he answered that he would, but
without committing himself further than
this. During the month the superinten-
dent of the Salem schools came to Brat
tleboro and spent a day observing the
work of our schools In December and
again in March Mr. Whitaker visited
Salem by request of the board. Since
March nothing had been heard from the
proposition and 1t was presumed that the
matter had been dropped so far as Mr.
Whitaker was concerned.
Salem is a city Of $4,000 people, and the
high school at present numbers about
500 pupils. The accommodations for the
high school are inadequate, two separate
buildings being used for its accommoda-
ton, but 1t is expected that a new build
ing will be erected in the course of the
next two or three years. The position
Will be distinct advance lot MT. WHltd-
ker, and II is one which he Is qualified
to fill with acceptance. He came to the
Brattleboro high school at the beginning
Of the school year in September, 1896. His
work has been positive, constructive and
successful, and such as marks Mr..
Whitaker as a strong and growing man
in his profession. His departure will be
felt as a distinct loss to the schools by
| the school board and by the people Of the
| district.
Mr. Whitaker graduated at Amherst
| in 1890, and pursued post graduate studies
at the University OF Chicago and at Har-
ward. He was principal of the Amherst
high school before coming to Brattleboro
Mr.. Whitaker notified the school board
| in Salem yesterday of his acceptance OF
/ the call. He will finish his school veal
| in Brattleboro. and after the summer
vacation will enter upon the duties Of
| his new position.
