THE COLUMBIAN AJSFD DEMOCRAT. BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA, What is Oraloading a Horso, anil How Proved. Tlio following tnkcn from "Jiithop on Statutory Crimen'1' edition of 18 73, Pngo 081) U bcliovod to bo iotintl law, the world over, on tho nhovo sub ject. It was written by Air. Anfjoll, in ro viewing rt decision of n Massncliusctts Court in 1808 that thoro wan no cruel ty because other horses of the game weight wcro ablo to draw 'tho load in riiiostion. It was the first and last decision of the kind ever rendered in Massachusetts, "Must an animal bo worked until ho breaks a blood vessel or drops dead, beforo tho law takes cognizance? Is tho horso to bo strained, or worked to tho uxtremo limit of his strength, bo. foro such training or working bo comes a cruelty (that Is, boforo tho net of his master becomes 'overloading!') Can an expert, or any number of ex perts, say what is tho limit of strength or onduranoo of any horso by simply knowing his weight! It seems to mo that theso questions can bo entity nns worcd. Horses, like men, aro of dif ferent ages, constitutions, tempera ments, formation and degrees of strength, Ono horse, just liko ono man, may bo twlco a9 last, twice as tough, as another precisely of tho samo Weight! and inasmuch as horses, liko men, aro liablo to a great variety of sickness, and suffer, just liko men, from previous overworking and from licit, want oi proper rest, food, water, shelter and care, it follows that tho samo horse, liko tho samo man, may bo ablo to perform without injury more labor in ono day than anothor. "Can a thousaud experts prove that all men of a given weight or size aro equally competent, on every day of the year, to perform a given labor? Can their testimony establish how much load a man of given weight should carry, and how far ho should oarry it on a given day, without re gard to whether tho man is old or young, Bick or well, strong or weak, tough or tender, already tired or rest ed, full-fed or starved, or tho day hot or cold! And does not precisely tho same reason apply to tho horse, that what one horse can do one day has no force in showing what another ought to do on another day, un less you show tho weather, age, strength, toughness and bodily condi tion of the two to bo precisely similar? I say, then, that it is just as impossible for any number of experts, knowing only tho weight or size of a horso and nothing of his age, health, strength, toughness and bodily condition, to es tablish what is, or is not, overloading him, as it would be, knowing only the sizo or weight of a man and nothing of his age, health, strength, toughness or bodily condition, to establish what is or what is not an oyerload for him. "IIow, then, aro wo to determine when a horse is overloaded! Jnst ex actly and precisely as we determine when a man is overloaded. First, we are to take his own evidence. If a man stops and says, "I am overloaded, I am working too hard, I feel that tho task put npon mo is too heavy," that is evidence. So when tho horse, ordi narily kind and willing to pull, comes with a heavy load to a riso of land and, after one or two effortB, stops and says as plainly as ho can speak it, "I am overloaded, I am working too hard, I feci that tho task put npon me is loo heavy," that is evidence; and there is no court or jury, or man with tho heart of a imau, who will not recognize it as sucu. besides, tho sums ot over work aro just as visible in tho horse as tho ni3n. No magistrate or juror 1.1 1 J!rt 1a Jl f ,f wuitiu uavo any uinmuity in deciding in his own mind whether a case to which hia attention might bo attracted in our public streets was or was not a caso of cruelty. "Is not, then, tho testimony of com petent, intelligent and credible by standers, who see how tho horso looks and acts, and his bodily condition. health, and capacity to perform tho labor required, the b'est evidence that can possibly be obtained! Whero can you get better? And when disinterest ed nnd intelligent witnesses, who are present and see and hear all that is said and done in a Riven case, volun tarilv leave their ordinary avocations and come into court and testify that tney are lully satishcd that the case is a clear case of cruelty, can such evi dence be overbalanced by that of any number of experts who are not present, see nothing that occurs, know nothing of the ago, health, strength, or bodily condition ot the horse at the time, and who base their calculations simply up on the avoirdupois weight of the ani mal! It is perfectly evident, then, I say, mat the Highest and best evi dence whioh any court or jury can ask or possibly obtain in a oaso of over loading, overworking, or overdriving, is tho oyidenco of tho horso himself, as interpreted by thoso present when tho cruelty is intlicted. "Cruelty begins very far short of taking tho extreme strength ot tho am mal. God has given to men and ani mals an excess ot strength, to be hue banded carefully and used occasionally, But to task that strength to its full limit unnecessarily is against nature, -breaks down tho man or tho animal beforo his or its time, and is a cruelty against which mon, having speech and reason, may protect themselves, but against which animals, having neith er speech nor reason like men, must loon to them for protection" An Uniqne Feature of the Pennsylvania Tho Pennsylvania Limited, perform ing a daily servico betwoen Now York and Chicago, noodod but one feature to corapleto tho perfection of its np pointraent. Tho men had their porter and barber, and now tho ladies have thoir maid and hair-dresser. Tho in- irouueuon oi tuo mams is as novel as it is a unique feature. It oxisU on no other regular train in the world, and the ladies who travel will appreciate it heartily. Tho maids aro colorod women and there is ono employed on each train Tlieyaro especially charged to look after tho comfort of ladies, children, and invalids. They are to assist ttio ladies in making their toilets, to circs') their hair, and serve a a hand-maid to them in tho fullest senso of tho term They will havo an oyo to tho chil dren, and have a caro for invalids and ladies who may travel without a male escort. Tho convenience and comfort of having an attendant of one's own box will bo cordially appreoiatod by timid women and thoso who ore inex periencod in travel.
