Passing nlong the sireet she encoun- tered a carter who was ummercifully beating his horse; and she expostula- ted. He gave her a saucy answer and she hit him with her umbrella. It was Hust what a woman would do aed for the moment she had no idea that she was violating any law. A policeman was present, however. Ho did not see the brutality of the carter, but he tivigged the chastisement of the wo- man, and at once arrested her. She protested, and he pushed and pulled her along the sidewalk, Others, seeing her distressed condition, pleaded that wie he allowed to sit somewhere, and rest, and" the burly policeman told them to "mind their own business." The evidence given before the recorder was against the carter and the police man, but his honor said he had only | one charge to dispose of and that was the woman. He charge of preferred the carter, and he would report the polidman to his captain for discipline. But the wo man, for daring to express her right- ous indignation in her own peculiar way, fined, and "made the som larger by adding The men who preferred the charge against the | woman, if really impartial and "honest | should have preferred a charge against the carter, and he should be made to realize that a dumb animal i= entitled to decent public treatment."

The council was designed for a a00d and 'wise purpose--to see that no ome practised medicine, and incidentally practised on the lives of the people, without a license.

Schools of the Sheldon kind have triumphed long en- ough.

Doctor Condemns Practice as Cruel. Dr. J. G. McPherson, D.V.S., onto, writes as follows to the onto Telegram : I have read a little regarding the docking of horses' tails and trimming and 'setting up of dogs' ears, wherein Dr. C. E. Rutherford; veter- inary director general of Canada, gives praise to an Ottawa veterinary aur- geon for being the first who has the courage to come out and say he will never dock any more horses' tails. I think he is a little late, or has for- gotten' the articles written on that through the columns of the Telegram, - Mail and Empire, and Globe, wherein I came out flat-flooted and condemned the cruel practice some years ago. There are but few who have any idea what a horse has to suffer. In the first place, to suit the fancy of the public, the depressor muscles of the tail' have to be severed, the tail up over the back with pulleys and weights, and the horse kept in a nar- Toronto the Tor- Tor- .

After these muscles become filled im, the tail is cut off with the docking shears: The hemarrhage is stopped by pressing a red-hot iron against the ar- teries, thus leaving , a portion of the coxogral exposed, which eventually de- cays and drops off. Now, if Dr. Rutherford has taken a humane view of this subject, why does he not take the proper steps, and with his influence, have an act passed through the Dominion government of Canada, making it a criminal offence ?
