SOUTHEASTERN MONTANA, Oct. 9, In the winterot '84 I suffered a severe attack of pneumonia and was advised by my phys! clan to leave the coast and go west if I wished to escape permanent lung trouble. I had been out to the termiuus of the Northern Pacitic road, when it was complete only some 200 iniles beyond Miles City, seen something of Tauch life and been strongly tmpressed with the ideu that there is money to be made in cat- Ue. So when this advice was given me I was nothing loth to sever my connection with a law firm in New York and set out, with a ew hundreds in my pocket, for the Montana Tauges, to beeume a cowboy and @ millionaire, Tam yet a cowboy.

Practiciag the System Exactiy as Pre- aeribed by Moses—A ers Opin. fon of » Custom Which Germany Pro- hibits, From the Nashville Union. Tue custom of the Hebrews of killing cattle after the manner preserived by the Mosatc law, which has recently been probivited in some parts of Germany on the ground of ‘‘cruelty to animals,” hus been in vogue in Nashville a number of years, According to the Jewish law, which was laid down by Moses, no butcher is allowed to kill bis own cattle. This must be done by a functionary known by the title of “shoshet,” who receives his title directly from the Jewish congregution. “A year’s study is re- quired by # person to fit him for the position of “shoshet.” The manner of ‘rilling, as described toa reporter by one ol the butchers, who prac- ticed the custoin for many years, Is quite inter estli jcomed animal's head is drawn down toa ring iu te floor, whereupon a rope Is fust- ened to the creature's left iad lez, which then hoisted up aatit the body falls over upo {us side, thus compelling the animai to stan upon 11s foreieet Wilh its head resting upon its horas, At this juncture the shoshet, armed with a long Knife, the baie of which Is some | two feet in length und as sharp asa razor, ad- vances to the abimul’s head and rubs his hand over the neck in order to find # soit place. This done be defily and quickly draws the deadly weapon across the auimal’s throat, He Is ouly allowed to inake one cut and Lwo stashes,. No one is aliowed to touvh the animal unttl it was bled to death. = When live Is extinet it is ald upou its buck to be dressed. The next thing done by the shoset is tg insert his arm on the inside Of Ube careass and ascertain whether the lungs are perfectly tree irom the ribs, If such is found to be the case, the iungs are drawn out, placed upon a table'and tuorouguly tested iu order to uscertaln their condition, tor avon this depends the healthfulness of tue meat. The lest is accomplished by biowing up the Tuugs. Ir they are ound to be air-tigut tue shosuet at tucites bis olficial seat to the 1eat, and no meat can be gold 10 Hebrew custouiers unless so branded. ‘The ~eal contains tue word ‘Kosher,’ printed iu Hebrew cbaruciers., The entire pro- Coss IW in acoordance with the rules luld down fu the Mosaic law.” “Do you consider this manner of killing cattle cruel, us bus Veeu charged by the press of Ger mun?" asked tue reporter, “Cruel! No, sin just tue contrary. [tix inmy opinion, the Only periecUy huinave way to Kill, Auluiuis slaughtered iu tuis manuer die A PERFECTLY PAINLESS DEATH, which ts far from being the case with the mod- ern style of knocking animais upon the heud, hulf a dozen blows belng often necessary betore the poor creature is completely stunned. The Jewish mode ot killing has been proven by Some of the inost learned tinea of the worid to be the best method of Kiling cattle, One good. effect resuiting trom this invde of slaugutering is that every drop of Uioud fs run out of the carcass Leture it Is dressed, the Mosaic law tor Uidding Jews to eut tue blood of auimats, Nevtuer were tue people of this atta permitted Weatirom Lhe lid quarters of aniinais, as these Were not cousidered cleaniy, Tue sane law regulaies the eating of pork, which is also deemed unceanly meat, ACCORDING TO THE STRICT ORTHODOX LAW ‘a shushet Was required to repeat a prayer before doing the killiug. He received 50 cents a head, wuich made his position quite lucrative. Calves and sheep, as well as beeves, were Fequired to be killed in the manuer precerived by Lue Mowale law. Even poultry was inciuded in the dist und all chickens, geese, Lurkeys aud otber fuwis eaten by tue Hebrews bud to be Killed by tue shosie Two uiguts beiore tue Jewish New Years regular procession of Jewisia people, mustly servants and children, could be seeu dling inio the Jewish butcher shups lad wih basis contaulng lve poultry.
