HORSE CASE
A PUzzLER.
Health Commissioners, S. P.
C. A. Man, Inspector and
Police Chief on 1t.
TO BE USED AS MEAT

Commissioners Henderson and
Grieye, of the Board of Health, Dep
uty Health Inspector Frost and Chief
OF Police Burke went to the residence
OF Henry Jensen in Weirup street
yesterday to investigate a report OF
Daniel G. Hutchinson of the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to An
imals, that the man had killed a
horse and had it dressed and quar-
tesed and hanging in his wagon shed.
They found conditions in accordance
with the report but whether any ac-
tion can be taken Is question in the
minds Of the officials.
Mr.. Jensen told the party yester-
day that he intended feeding the
horse meat to his chickens, of which
he has nearly 100. Mr.. Hutchinson
says that, when he visited the place
Saturday, the entrails of the animal
were lying on the ground a few feet
from the house, which led him to be-
lieve that Jensen killed 1t there. In
the wagon shed Mr.. Hutchinson says
he was shown the horse, dressed and
quartered. The s. P. G. A. agent
says that Mr.. Jensen said that he In
tShdOu ACCuAHB SOHb VI Tue uOTB6 10
his chickens and would make bo-
logna out of the rest. Mr.. Hutchin-
son has made thorough fnvestiga-
tion of the case and is considerably
incensed over the matter. He says
that last Wednesday the horse be-
longed to another man and that he
told him not to drive 1t any more, as
1t was crippled, lean and unfit for
work. On Thursday, Mr.. Hutchinson
says, he was told by the former own
|er that he had given the horse to a
man at New Brunswick, who was GO
ing to turn 1t out on q farm. Mr..
Hutchinson states further that, In
stead, the man sold the horse to Jen-
sen for SO and that Jensen killed it
later. Mr.. Jensen, according to Mr..
Hutchinson, admitted buying the an
imal from the former owner for So
and later killing it.
Health Inspector Frost visited the
place again this morning and says
that the quartered horse was still
hanging in the wagon shed. Jensen,
he says, told him that he was keeping
1t for himself and family and that
part of it would be fed to his chick
ems. Chief Burke says that he does
not think there is any law which pro-
hibits Jensen. from eating, or selling
the horse meat, as long as he tells
the purchasers what 1t is.

prominent physicians Office the other
day.
The doctor stepped to his medicine
case, took down couple of BOTTLES, mixed
preparation which ne handed TO the
patient with thu customary advice to
shake we'll and follow directions and
resumed his seat.
"Such cases are frequent" ,"replied tn.
doctor in answer to a question. "The
warm days and damp, chilly nights are
certain malaria breeders and are most
serious in those who have neglected to
keep their stomach, liver and bowels in
good condition. Such persons are full
of the impurities on which the ma1arial
germ thrives, and it is from this class
that typhoid fever, pneumonia, Bright's
Disease, small pox and yellow fever claim
most of their victims whenever these dis
cases are prevalent.
The proper way to guard against the
1alaria1 germ and the serious diseases
which follow it is to get into good condi,
ton by taking reliable remedy that
will keep the bowels clear and the liver
healthy, and to continue with it al fire.

NORTON MAN BADLY BURNED.
Attempted to Save His Barn and May
Die as the Result.

Norton, Kan, May S.-Thursday
evening a bad fire occurred on the
farm of Godfrey Craven, seventeen
miles southeast of Norton. The farm
is occupied by Mr.. C. Ritter. He was
burning some trash, when the fire
blew into the barn. When the fire
was discovered, and others arrived on
the scene. Mr.. Ritter was found in the
barn with his clothes, except the
trousers. all torn from his body and
overcome by the heat and flames. Mr..
Ritter was so badly burned about the
hands and face that he is unable to
see at all, though it is not thought his
sight has been destroyed. The skin
and flesh on his head and hands is so
cooked that it came off when touched
1t is supposed that when he saw he
could not save the barn he tried to
save the horses. which doubtless was
largely the cause of the terrible re-
suits to himself.
