ANIMAL RESCUE WORK IN HAITI ADVANCED BY TWO D. C. WOMEN] Mrs. Katharyn Frost and Miss Alice Cutts Do Much for Beasts of Burden. Natives Reduce Cruelty, Al- though Funds Are Low. Haiti and its political affairs are so much in the limelight at the moment Haiti during the past two years brings an intimate glimpse into conditions there which the American occupation, the “Service Technique” as it is called, has given fullest co-operation In ameliorating. ’ 0 | that the story of how two American | | women started animal rescue work in | Mrs, Minnie Maddern Piske, noted | actress who has devoted years to ani- mal welfare work; Irene Castle, the actress (now Mrs. F.

Cutts of the United States Marine Brigade now in command in Haiti. Two years ago a Washington woman. Katharyn Frost, who is well known as artist pianist here, was quite horrified at the condition of the many “beasts of burden” in the island, the horses and the bourriques (very tiny burros), who are used for transporting amazing loads on their backs. Mrs. Frost started this relief work, carrying it on | almost_single-handed until Miss Cutts came to Haiti. t is the old story of primitive I people thinking a beast their own prop- | erty with neither feeling nor limits in endurance. has brought about the stand against “cruelty to animals” throughout the | civilized world. Mrs. Frost's Appeal. In a letter of appeal Mrs. Frost tates: “I have just returned from a two- year stay in Port au Prince and the suffering I witnessed, of the horses and | bourriques on the Island of Haiti is beyond anything I can put into words. The ignorant natives, naturally cruel, torture their animals beyond belief, not realizing that they are injuring their only means of transportation. They are beaten over the head until their ears and eyes are in a dreadful condition; when they fall from exhaus- tion they are seldom unloaded, but the tail is twisted to make the animal rise, often until the blood comes! Practi- cally every horse and bourrique have | great back sores under their loads, its dirt on, y are over- which the native just when he thinks of it. worked and under-fed.” ‘Today, through the work of these two American women, 3,756 animals have been given medical treatment by veterinarians in a single month, They hope to found a hospital there for ani- mals like that in Fez, Morocco, which is maintained by an American commit- tee with headquarters in New York City.

By the Associated Press. BLAIRSVILLE, Ga., March 8.—The story of a tragic climax to another “land line” feud came out of the moun- tains here today. The story was told by Hugh Brown, 65-year-old mountain farmer, facing & murder charge for the shooting of Edith Miller, 25, only daughter of Jim Miller, 55, his “feud enemy.” Brown, peering through the bar: in the little Blairsville jail, related to au- thorities how Edith, seeking to shield her father, stepped in front of Jim Miller as Brown raised his shotgun. Girl Died Instantly. The aged mountaineer pulled the trigger, the entire load of shot strik- ing the girl in the abdomen and she dropped to the ground, dying almost in- stantly. The tragedy occurred late yesterday near the disputed “land line” between the Brown and Miller properties, nine miles west of Blairsville. Brown said in jail today that Miller and his daughter came up to him | while he was at work in the field a short distance from the property line. Miller, Brown said, had his hands in his pockets and, fearing “Jim had a gun,” raised his weapon, which he had carried to the flelds with him. The girl immediately ran in front of the line of gunfire and was killed. Feud Believed Settled. Trouble between Brown and Miller, which was of several years' standing, was thought to have been settled at the last term of court when Brown won in a trespass suit in which Miller was the plaintiff. Miller claimed in {m:'.hnmvvnmdencro-ch:donhn land. The renewal of the feud yesterday was the cause of tragedy, Brown told officers. Miller's wife is dead, but Brown has a wife and several children. | Gift to Policeman | Proves Faux Pas, But Solves Theft Silk Undergarment Shown at Headquarters Leads to Doctor’s Arrest.
