LATE LAW DECISION?.
(Published by the West Publishing
Company.)
Evidence of Conduct of Bloodhounds
in Trailing Criminal. In the case of
Brott vs. State, 97 Northwestern Re
porter, 593, the plaintiff han been con
victed of burglary, and appealed on
tlie ground that evidence had been ad
mlttud showing the conduct of blood
aounda which has been placed upon
the trail of the burglar. The supreme
court of Nebraska reverses the case
because of the admission of this evi
dence. The court in a very interest
ing opinion, says, in substance, that
the bloodhound has a great reputation
for sagacity, and there is a prevalent
belief that in the pursuit and discov
ery of criminals he is practically in
fallible. This is a delusion which
abundant experience has failed to dis
sipate. The sleuth-hound of fiction is
a marvelous dog, but We find nothing
quite like, him in real life. In the
present case the dog was not put up
on the trail until twelve hours after
the burglar had left. The situation
which the dog had to deal with was
an exceptionally difficult one. owing
to the fact that the trail had been
crossed and recrossed by many peo
ple, and the sun had been shining on
it steadily for flours. iThe bloodhound
is. endowed with a remarkably keen
scent. He has great ability for dif
ferentiating smells. His method of
trailing is simple and well under
stood. Particles of waste matter given
off by a particular individual fall to
the ground, and while undergoing
chemical change come in contact with
the olfactory nerves of the dog and
produce an impression which he is
able to recognize. A man may be
easily trailed in the woods or in the
country for a short time, but in the
city the trailing is more difficult, and
often impossible. Difficulties do not
deter the bloodhound. He always fol
lows some scent, and he always goes
somewhere. Undoubtedly nice and
delicate questions are time and again
presented to him for decision, but the
considerations that induce him in a
particular case to adopt one conclu
sion rather than another cannot be
presented to the jury. They cannot
knaw whether the reasons on which
lie acted were good or bad, nor wheth
er his faith in the identity of the
scent which he has followed is strong
or weak. Apparently, because of the
lack of opportunity to cross-examine
a bloodhound as to the reasons which
govern him in making his decisions,
the court holds that the evidence must
be rejected.
Right tf Wife to Recover Damages
for Wrongful Death of Husband Who
Had Not Contributed to Her Support.
In the case of De Garcia vs. San An
tonio and Aransas Pass Railroad com
pany., 77 Southwestern Reporter, 275,
which was an action by the wife
against (he railroad for the wrongful
death of her husband, it was brought
out that for more than two years prior
to his death the wife had received no
pecuniary aid from him, and would
not have received any had he lived,
and from this it was contended that
the wife could not recover for his
death. The court of civil appeals of
Texas, however, holds that, where the
wife has not by her own acts forfeited
the right to support by her husband,
she may recover damages for his
death, although he had not for a long
time fulfilled his duty to support her.
Attempt to Bribe Officer Who Is
Without Authority to Act. The opin
ion of the supreme court of Missouri,
reviewing the conviction of the noted
Edward Butler; for an attempt to
bribe a member of the St. Louis board
of health, is reported in 77 Southwest
ern Reporter, 560. The court first
holds that under the St. Louis city
charter, requiring contracts for pub
lic improvements, and providing that
any other mode of contracting shall
be illegal, an ordinance giving the
board of health power to contract for
the removal of garbage is void. Tha
statues under which the indictment!
was brought (Rev. St. 1899, sections
2084. 2089) are thus summarized by
the court: “Every person who shall
directly or indirectly offer to giva any
money to any public officer, with in
tent to influence his vote or decision
on an question which may by law be
brought before him in his official ca
pacity. shall be guilty cf an attempt
to bribe.” The court then holds that,
as the board of health had no power
to let a garbage contract, the defend
ant's Offer of money of a member of
the Itoard to secure such contract, did
not constitute an attempt to bribe, un
der the statute. The ordinance at
tempting to empower the board of
health to let such contracts is also
held insufficient to afford a basis for
the prosecution, because it was not in
force at the time the offer of money
was made. Some minor points as to
the construction of ordinances and
criminal statutes are made.
Breaking as Constituting Burglary
of Entire Building. In the State vs.
Peebles, 77 Southwestern Reporter,
518. the Supreme court of Missouri
“The Staff of Life”
in one of its agreeable forms is a loaf
of French bread such as leaves our
ovens daily many times multiplied.
Everyone who has once tried our sort
of bread comes around for more.
Pretty' good proof, isn't it, of its excel
lence. Ask for DIETZEL'S BREAD.
L. DIETZEL
118 South Alamo Street.
SAN ANTONIO DAILY LIGHT, SAN ANTONIO,' TEXAS, THURSDAY, MARCH 24, 1904.
holds that a burglarious breaking into
a building applies to the entire struc
ture, though the larcency. which was
the object to be atlained, was com
mitted In another portion of the struc
ture in the occupancy of another per
son The defendant unlocked and en
tered the front door of the part of the
building occupied by a certain Ann.
and stole property from another part
occupied by another person. The
building was all under the same roof
and in one enclosure, and the partition
between the two parts flit) not extend
the entire length of the building, nor
to the ceiling, so that a person could
climb over it without any breaking
The, information charged the burglary
of the first part, while the court in
structed that the burglarizing of that
portion where the goods were stolen
would warrant a conviction. The va
riance was held Immaterial, for the
reason given.
Binding Character of Testimony of
Witness Called by the Court. The
point was raised in the case of Gold
water v. State, 77 Southwestern Re
por. 221, that where the court called
upon Its own violation a witness who
contradicted the testimony of the other
witness in the case it was bound by
the testimony of its witness. The
court of Civil Appeals holds, however,
that the testimony was before the
court in the same manner as that of
any other witness, and the court, like
the jury, was authorized to either be
lieve the witness or not. In this case
the court rejected the testimony of
tbe witness which it had called, and
convicted the prisoner.
Use of Copyrighted Song In Theatri
cal Performance. The Circuit court
for the Eastern District of Pennsyl
vania in the case of Bloom & Hanlin
v. Nixon et al., 125 Federal Reporter,
977. passed upon a novel copyright ac
tion. The plaintiffs were the owners
and producers of a copyrighted song
known as "Sammy.” and sung during
the performance of “The Wizard of
Oz” by a popular actress, who accom
panied the song by certain gestures,
postures, and other artistical effects.
Defendants produced a musical come
dy entitled "The Runaways." a feature
of the performance being the imitation
of the peculiarities and characteristics
of five actresses, among them being
the singer of “Sammy.” The court
states that it is this imitation or mimi
cry that the court is asked to enjoin.
The judge goes into the entire ques
tion at some length, even going so far
as to set forth the first, verse and cho
rus of the song. It is held that what
is being represented by the defendants
are the peculiar actions, gestures and
tones of Miss Faust, of the Wizard of
Oz company, and that these are not
and cannot be copyrighted by the com
plainants, since they are the subse
quent device of other minds. It is the
personality imitated that is the sub
ject of Miss Templeton's acts, modi
fied of course, by her own individuali
ty. Surely, a parody would not in
fringe the copyright of the work paro
died merely because a few lines of
the original might be reproduced. The
owner of the copyright is entitled to
be protected from unauthorized public
performances of the song, in order
that whoever may desire to hear it
will be obliged to attend his perfor
mance. In defendants' production on
ly the chorus of the song is sung. Miss
Templeton merely imitates the singer,
and the Interest in her performance is
due not to the song, but to the degree
of excellence of the imitation. The
motion for preliminary injunction was
denied.
Publication of photograph in connec
tion with libelous article In the case
of De Sando vs. New York Herald
Co., 85 New York supplement, 111, it
appeared that the New York Herald
published a character sketch of a
noted Italian brigand, and stated that
in connection with the article was
printed his photograph, the only one
known to be in existence in America.
It appeared that a photograph of the
brigand was not to be had. and the
Herald company secured that of the
plaintiff, who is als oan Italian, aud
published It as the photograph of ihe
brigand. The supreme court, appel
late division first department, holds
that the publication of the photograph
in this manner, in connection with the
libelous article, makes the newspaper
responsible for the libel on the per
son whose picture is published.
Payment to congressman for pro
curing government contract. The
case of United States vs. Driggs, 125
federal reporter. 520. was a prosecu
tion by the United Stales, in the cir
cuit .court for the eastern district of
New York, against Congressman
Driggs, under revised statutes, sec
tions 1781 and 1782, making it a crimi
nal offense for any member of con
gress to receive any money, property,
or other valuable conslderatidh iro
procuring any contract from the gov
ernment, or to receive any compensa
tion for services rendered In relation
to any claim or contract to which the
United States is a party. U. seems
that a non-negotiable note was made
by the contractor, drawn to the order
of the coni ractor's agent, and it was
agreed that a certain sum should be
paid to the member, for his services
in procuring the contract, out of tho
proceeds of the contract as they were
received. The court held that deliv
ery of this note to the member of
congress did not constitute the giving
or receiving of property or a valuable
consideration, said note being non
negotiable. and being made unlawful
and void by the very statute upon
which the indictment was brought.
The court holds further, however, that
indictments based upon the payments
subsequently made and received In ac
cordance with the terms of the note
were not barred by limitation, where
they were made within three years
before the bringing of the indictment,
although the note upon which they
were payments was made and deliv
ered more than three years prior to
the finding of the indictment. The
contract in question was one with ihe
postoffice department, providing for
the purchase of automatic cashiers,
and the prosecution one of the first
brought as the result of the recent in
vestigation of the postoffico depart
ment.
Expectancy of life bated on longe
vity of ancestors. In the case of Ham
ilton vb, Michigan Central Railway
company, 97 Northwestren Reporter,
392. the supreme court of Michigan
denied the right of counsel to show
an expectancy of life beyond that
given in the mortality tables by ex
l»erts who were to testify to their
opinions, taking as a basis tbe mortal
ity tables and the hypothesis that the
plaintiff resembled his father ami
grandfather, who lived to advanced
ages Without passing upon the ques
tion as to whether the longevity of the
father and grandfather was competent
evidence, the court .states that when
coupled with tbe proposition io show
by experts the expectancy of life
based upon that testimony and the
mortality tables it was not competent
Counsel was nofable to cite any cases
in which such testimony was re
ceived.
ESTIMATING NAVAL STRENGTH.
The customary, and upon the whole
justest. mode of estimating relative
power, is by aggregate weight of shot
discharged in one broadside; and
when, as in this case, the range is so
close that every gun comes into play,
it is perhaps a useless refinement to
insist on qualifying considerations.
The broadside of the Constitution
weighed 736 pounds, that of the Guer
riere 570. The difference therefore in
favor of the American vessel was thir
ty per cent and the disparity in num
bers of the crews was even greater. It
is not possible, therefore, to insist up
on any singular credit, in the mere
fact that under such odds victory falls
to the heavier vessel. What can be
said, after a careful comparison of the
several reports, is that the American
ship was fought warily and boldly, that
her gunnery was excellent, that the in
stant advantage taken of the enemy's
mizzen-mast falling showed high sea
manlike qualities, both in promptness
and accuracy of execution; in short,
that, considering the capacity of the
American captain as evidenced by his
action, and the odds in his favor, noth
ing could be more misplaced than
Captain Dacre’s vaunt before the
court: "I am so well aware that the
success of my opponent was owing to
fortune, that it Is my earnest wish to
be once more opposed to the Consti
tution, with the same officers and crew
under my command, in a frigate of
similar force to the Guerriere." Con
sidering the difference of broadside
weight, this amounts to saying that the
capacity and courage of the captain
and ship’s company of the Guerriere.
being over thirty per cent greater
than those of the Constitution, would
moje than compensate for the latter's
bare thirty per cent superiority of
force. It may safely be said that one
will look in vain through the accounts
of the transaction for any ground for
such assumption.—From "The War of
1812," by Captain A. T. Mahan, in the
March Scribner's.

A soiled spot on the lily ami a canker

A lovely woman burdened with self

I look for Wisdom, and I see a preach

Lay off the way to heaven with a com
pass and a rule;
A doctor that's a charlatan, a teacher
that's a fool.
I 'look for Virtue; men are flies, who
lose their souls for honey;
The women see their draggled wings,
and laugh and think it's funny.
And scorn their fallen sisters —and
wed a man for money.
1 look for Inspiration; from what
cesspools poet pump it!
Why, even Kipling tootles on a penny

And Homer sang the Trojan war —a
struggle for a strumpet.
I look for Honor; stay awhile—what
honest men are these?
A politician out for plums, a lawyer
out for fees—
Go to! I'll get a lantern and join Dio

I look for Gods; I And things that

And Jove debauching women, and

Perfection, Wisdom. Virtue, Inspira

They all go up in smoke—theyte
made of very fragile stuff —
And yet I’ll find them if I keep on
looking long enough!
To this let me add
The writer is a cynic, too much he

The ideal that he seeketh, and sings
of on his lyre,
Has ne'er on earth existed—save in

“MISSING LINK” BETWEEN
BIRDS AND LIZARDS.
“One of the most interesting birds
known to science is the hoatzin," so
ray Jerrard Grant Allen and LeotArd
Buttress in an article on Bird Babies
in the March Pearson's. “Indigenous
.0 South America, this precocious
youngster has made itself famous by
the arboreal feats which it performs
while yet at a very tender age. In
the "thumb" and “forefinger” of Ute
young hoatzins wing appear they
claws, and armed with these the little
creature crawls out of its nest and.
clambers about the boughs of trees,
using them as hands, by means of
which it hooks itself along. The pro
gross, indeed, exactly corresponds to
the early pedestrian efforts of the hu
man baby, whose Arst perambulations
are made with the assistance cf
friendly chairs and other furniture
These little claws of the hoatzin are
used only in infancy, dropping off as
soon as the power of flight has been
attained. The chief interest of /the
species, however, attaches to the fact
•hat it is one of the most primitive
forpts of bird now in existence and af
fords an important link with the an
cestry of the fowl of today. Origin
ally, as is generally known, birds were
evolved from tbe lizard family, and
tho hoatzin forms a comparatively
early step in the progression from
reptile to bird. Even when its wings
are full grown, so imperfect are they
that no upward soaring can be nego
tiated. and their only use is in mak
ing short flights from a higher <0 «
lower branch, while the ease with
which the hoatzin climbs affords an
other Indication of its proximity to
the lizard tribe"
Praising the Longhorn.
The Pleasanton Monitor indulges in
the following rhapsody on the Ixmg
horn: ,
“The old Texas steer in his wild
career, has lost his great long hot ns,
but if you want to hear a cowboy
cheer, as his pony leaps the prickly
pear, just let an old longhorn stam
pede, then watch him slash and spur
his steed, and watch him dash with
frightful speed to gain his place up
in the lead, while Clash of horns and
thunderous sound and clattering
hoofs and trembling ground, as a thou
sand steers go milling round like an
avalanche breaking down trees. There
is something in a sight like this, which
the world ere long is going to miss
for the longhorn ha<l his day. He is
passing slowly, but surely away, but
no other steer ever born, muley or
shorthorn can run and jump and snort
like the longhorn, and the cowboys
love him to the last.”
