''old salt" marooned by old age il

lubbers," of Burbank. S D., in q
communication to Edward Wander
Velde, naval recruiting officer here,
expresses a desile to be of service tC
the navy by helping to solve the prob.
lem of how to zig a ship in the fashion
of 1913.
81 spent several years in the British
merchant service, beginning in the
year '61," writes Mr.. C%ouran. 81
read recently in the Sioux City Tribune
that an old salt was wanted to helI
rig the hulk of the 'Niagara.' My
memory is clear On points having to dc
with the iiRgine eff a ship as sailing
VESSELS were rugged, and / will be
glad to do anything l can to helI
the navy department. OF course,
every ship has individual points that
differ slightly from vessels of similar
papers, and / think l could be OF
more help If a photograph of the hulk
were sent tc me. / hold an A. B. Ger.
ti6cate and / know how to rig a ship
In TIE old time manner. l know the
length of rope standard Of 1886"
Chief Wander Velde shook his head
and smiled. when asked if MIR. Couran
we're likely to qualify as an aid to the
Niagara rehabilitation crew.
"'That is something that is not for
me to say said he, but / am afraid
he is not old enough. / think it is
the intention of the department to &C
back further than 81 for ideas, if il
is possible"

DOCTOR HELD FOR
CRUELTY TO DOGS
Girl TGstlfieS That Machine
Was Used TO Break Backs.

Philadelphia.-Dr. j. e. Sweet, as,
sistant professor Of surgical research
Of the medical department Of the Uni
versity Of Pennsylvania, was held in
$500 bail for court here by Magistrate
Haggerty on q charge made by the
Society For the Prevention Of Cruelty
to Animals. Cruelty to dogs In the
vivisection and experimental labora-
tories of the university was alleged.
Miss Henrietta Ford Ogden, rich,
testified that every Friday for six
months she had crawled through a
hole in a fence so that she could gain
entrance to the kennels Of the uni
verslty and obtain evidence. Miss Og-
den identified the back breaking ma
chine, which she alleged Is used in
the laboratories TO crush out the lives
Of dogs.
The machine is best described as a
diminutiye gallows. A heavy iron
weight is operated on ropes and pull
legs so that it will descend with suf-
fcient force to break the backbone Of
any animal held beneath 1t.
Magistrate Haggerty at this point
said: 1--WE realize the right of the
university to perform necessary ami
NAL experiments, u there is nothing
too severe for a person who would de
wise or use such an apparatus as this.
1t is almost incredible to believe that
a civilized human being would use an
apparatus of this sort. 1t ix an in
fernal machine"
Samuel s. Geyer, formerly In charge
of the university kennels, said that
the members OF the faculty ordered
the surgeons 10 remove all evidences
Of cruelty to animals when the legis.
lature was acting on the vlvisectioD
bill. He declared that after the meas
nre was defeated and after the danger
had passed the practices were con.
tinued.
