HUMANE SOCIETYS
WORK FOR A YEAR
Annual Meeting of Wisconsin So
ciety Is Held.
BIG GAIN IN MEMBERSHIP
President Borup Urges That Children
Be Taught to Love and Care for
AnimaIs-New Legislation
Is Explained.

At the annual meeting of the Wis
consin Humane society in Milwaukee
reports showed gains in the amount
of work, an increase in membership,
which now numbers SAB, and in finan-
cial support.
One of the recommendations of
President Dorup's report was an ur-
gent appeal to deal with children so
that they grow up in the love for and
care of animals. He cited a number
of extreme cases of cruelty that were
prosecuted during the year, and ex-
pressed the belief that much of inhu-
mainly would be averted if the chill
dren were properly advised and
trained.
The complaints investigated num-
bered 841, in which cruelty to animals
was alleged; 260 dogs were killed,
1,724 animals were relieved and there
were 265 reprimands for abuse.
The work among people was not ex-
tensive, though greater than ever be-
fore. One hundred and ninety-nine
cases were investigated and actions
reference of the cases to associations
and societies, children sent to depend
ent homes, etc.
w. H. Bennett, vice-president of the
society, presented a report describing
the character of the new legislation
secured through the efforts of the So
ciety at the last session of the legisla-
ture and showed how it has worked

Montreal. March 17.-Four persons
were killed and thirty injured as the
result of the blowing out of a wash
out pipe on the locomotive hauling
the Boston Express, due in Windsor
Street station on the Canadian Pa
cific railroad today. Three miles out
from the station scalding steam filled
the cab and the engineer and fire
man were forced to jump. The train.
without a guiding hand at the throt-
tie, dashed into the station, through
the granite walls into the woman's
waiting room and then into the ro-
tunda where the locomotive after de-
molishing one massive pillar, was
brought to a stop by another.
The four persons killed was sitting
in the women's waiting room. They
are: Mrs. w. j. Nixon. Montreal; a
13 year old son of Mrs. Nixon; a
nine year old daughter of Mrs. Nixon;
and Elsie Villiers. nine years old, of
Montreal. A score of men were
knocked down when the train crashed
through the rotuna The husband of
Mrs Nixon is a Canadian Pacific
train dispatcher at Medicine Hat, AL
berta He had secured leave to come
to Montreal to get his family and
they were all at the station to greet
him after a six months separation.
The mangled bodies of his wife and
children were lying on the platform
when he stepped from the train.

ed that the Kansas legislature, under
the laws of which state the company

was decided that il was not advisable

Il will take to illustrate what have

district in this territory with a view
to determining the probability of the
pupils of the African race being ac-
corded equally good facilities as those
of the white race.
The district has 1888 pupils en-
rolled in its public. schools; of these
IS are of the African race In that
district there are thirty schools graded
from the first to the eighth grades and
the high school; there are thirty-five
teachers employed. If these eighteen
pupils of the African race are segre-
gated they may either all be put in
one room under one teacher, or they
may be put in several vooms, according
to their grade of advancement, under
several teachers. If, for the advantage
OF the various grades for the white
children. certain apparatus. expert
mental or illustrative. books, maps,
laboratories, etc, are supplied, certain
ly they should be supplied for those
Of the African race. This affords so
incongruous a situation that l imagine
il will hardly occur. If the children
of the Africans are to be graded as
are the white children with all the IA
cilities and opportunities accorded the
white children. at least eight schools
will have TO be maintained with as
many teachers. At present there are
eighteen children of the African race
amongst thirty schools. If
the segregation is madeyand this the
ory of practice and grading be pre-
served. then there will be about three
or four children Of this race to the
segregated schools.
