Threading my way along the child-lit- tered sidewalk my eye caught the al- ways interesting antics of “a small pup" ——pcrhaps three or four months old -frisking about the youngsters. On a sudden it taint-hearted child the pair py had approached drew back and sci up a cry. Abushed by this unexpected and unusual reception the wagging mil was drawn between his legs as the pup 'sidled against.another kiddy looking no doubt for fuller understanding. But. the fright of the faint-hearted child was contagious—the alarm spread in» stanianeously. and at once there was a sh‘rieking and scrambling of terrified youngsters. Down the street came a horrified mother to raise the cry of “mad dog," and in less time than it takes you to read this that erstwhile playful pup was tearing down the street. in fright, chased by men and boys hurling stones and clubs past at its poor wondering little head. The pup I rescued trembling like A. leaf and scared nearly into a lit—but the men and boys wore appeased only after long and patient argument. This was an actual experience and is by no means an unusual illustration of what constantly happens. It's the way that 75 per cent. of the mad-dos scares start. Scarcely a day passes without some newspaper account of a “mad dog" that has been chased to its death. Most of the mad dogs are merely thirsty or have been chased un- til they are crazed with ‘t’rlgbt and exhaustion. We need a little common sense in these approaching. dog days. and we need—perhaps more-a little kindly thought. If the hot days are trying to We humans who can make known our wants and asuage our thirst when we will,.what most they be to a dumb beast—the horses that tell all day in. the blazing nun—the dogs that so unwutered for the most part? - Have mercy.

On this phase of the cane the opinion of the Court of Appeals declares: “in this interpretation of the inter- Stale Commerce law, so far as it re- lates to shippers, we cannot. concur. The cases cited by the government. such as those requiring liquor sellers at their crll, to know whether the per- son to whom drink is sold is u minor of within the problhiton of the act or not, are not controlling or very per- sunslve." The decision handed down today by the United States Court of Appeals was on the appeal made hy the Stan- dard Oil Company of lndiann from the verdict“ rendered April 15. 1907. by which the company was to rid guilty of accepting rebates, and was later tin. ed 329,240,000, the maximum under the counts of the indictment. The specific charge against the Standard Oil Company of lndiana was that it had accepted rebates of ship- ments of oil in carioad lots from Whit. ing' ind, to East st) Louis, 1",, over the Chicago and Alton Railroad. Evi- dence was adducted at the trial show- ing that the company received rates one-third as large as other shippers were obliged to pay. Counsel for the oil company maintained that the rate was not secret, but the jury found oth- crwlse. During the trial counsel for the oil company refused to give information called for by Judge Landis after he had taken thp case under advisement. The court thereupon issued subpoenas for the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, among them John D. Rockefel- ler. These omcials appeared in court on July 6, 1907, and were personally examined by Judge handle. it devel- court that the Indiana corporation. against which indictments had been returned, is owned by the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, the earn. logs of which during the three years in which Occurred the transactions covered by the indictments amounted to nearly $200,000,000. and that divi- dends averaging forty per cent. per an- number were paid during that time. .ludire handle, after keeping the case undcr advisement for several weeks, unused sentence on the Standard Oil Company of lndian‘a, August 3, 1907. The company entered a motion for a new trial, which was refused. and it then appealed from the” decision of a iurv in the United States District court. on the ground that the verdict was not based upon the facts, was un- iustiilahle, and that the fine imposed by .lndire Lendis was excessive. it was on this appeal that the decision of today was handed down.
