The Mount Holly news. [volume] (Mount Holly, Burlington Co., N.J.) 1891-1942, 1911-04-25

On February 81, Adam Hanselman, of
Pottsville. Pa, was discharged after serY-
ing thirty days In the jail at Mount
Holly. At the time of his commitment
from Bordentown 1t was noticed that. the
man was crazy. On his person was found
very sharp knife blade which he made
out of corset steel. 1t was firmly fas-
tened in a wooden handle. While here
the man gave the officials all kinds Of
trouble. About three weeks ago Hsnsel.
man was committed to the insane asylum
at PottsYille. On Thursday last he at.
tackled an inmate named William Colonis
of Mahanoy City, and killed him by
crushing in his skull with the leg of 9
table. Hsnselmas was suffering from the
delusion that he was great inventor.

The speaker said that Maj. Var
daman's voice had never been
raised in joint debate but once and
that at Meridian with Senator Will
liams. Now be shuns it as a burnt
child does the fire.
Senator Percy made profound
impression upon his audience, and
at the conclusion of his speech, be
was rendered an ovation. For
many minutes men, women and
children crowded ON the platform
to shake his hand, and others were
heard to say that they would do
likewise, but realized that he was
tired and did not want to further
weary him.

Be Kind to Dumb Beasts This
Summer.
]. B. McMURCHY, Pres.

Up in Ohio one hot summer day
a newspaper man saw team driver
who treated his horses kindly. in
stead of brutally, as many others
do. 1t impressed him and he went
back to his office and wrote an edi-
toral. 1t was good editorial and
1t attracted the attention OF many
people. Including the Chic Humane
society. That society issueda a leaf
let, bearing some horses hear un-
der the Insertion, "Please be Kind
to Us; We Work Hard For You, !"
and a reproduction of the editorial.
In hot weather these leaflets 60
out in the mail of some of the big
gest firms in the state, constant
remainder>to the owners of animals.
One came to the News Scfmitar re.
Gently. The editorial follows:
There was big team, mighty
load, and a long hill, and we watch.
ed, because we had seen much
brutality in the treatment of anim-
mails, and we wondered what the
driver of this team would do. He
was brawny and strong, and he had
kind face, and be knew his busi-
ness. He didn't use the whip. He
talked to his horses in a friendly
way. He said: Come OH, Jim, :"
and Hi, there. Bill, )" and when
he reached a very tteep spot he
Jumped off the load and walked.
Once he put on the brake and gave
the painting animals much need
ed rest, and at the top of the hill
he patted the noses of his faithful
friends, allowed them to breathe a
bit, and then the big load moved
along as easely as you please.
That's the story of man who
was on to his job.
We believe that down in the heart
of nearly every man is some kind
ness, and a sence of justice.
We believe that most of the
brutality, the i'll treatment of anil
mails comes from ignorance or habit
We believe that even the man
who needlessly uses whip, when
he stops to think, will correct his
own errors and do his best to cause
others to be kind.
We don't need to tell you that
1t hurt horse to be whipped just
as badly as it does a man ora child.
And isn't the horse entitled to
good treatment Doesn't he appeal
to our sympathy He can't talk and
he works faithfully to bis dying
day for his board.
He cannot protest. He cannot
even tell you he is sick. It is for
you and every driver to show how
kind you can be because Of your
own sense Of justice.
