CITY DOG CATCHER IS
ARRESTED FOR CRUELTY

City Dog Catcher W. H. Miller was ar
rested yesterday for mistreatment of the
dog belonging to Mrs. Charles Whelan.
This is the second time Mr.. Miller has
been placed under bond at the instiga-
ton of Mrs. Whelan, who is secretary of
the Humane society, and 1t is claimed
that both arrests are results of rather
strenuous war being waged between the
city dog catcher and the Humane society
There is at present a case on the court
dockets against Mr.. Miller for similar
offense, but which has been postponed
until the City Council takes action rela-
tive to the manner in which dogs shall
be caught. 1t is stated that Mr.. Miller
ran after Mrs. Whelan's dog yesterday
morning and threw the wire moose about
It's neck. 1t was then that Mrs. Whelan
ran to the dog, and taking it in her arms
compelled the dog catcher to release his
wire. Mller's arrest came soon after.
1t is believed by many that the result
Of the contention between the city and the
Humane society In regard to the dog
catching matter will result in the Of
fee of dog catcher being taken entirely
out of the hands of the city and placed
under the control of the Humane society.
This organization will then be held re-
sponslble for the enforcement of the law
regarding the catching of unlicensed dogs
for the city pound.
