VIVISECTION HOBBY
PASIII CENSURED
Animals Get as Much Out of
Life as Humans, Thinks
Chicago Professor.
BIRD CLOSED SEASON ASKED
Congressional Committee to Deter
mine Whether Textbooks Teach
Cruelty Also TTrged Change
Pulpit Talks Proposed.
WASHINQTON. Iec. 11. Vivisec
tion in the bands of those without sym
pathy always will be abused, always
will be what it is today, largely a pas
time and a hobby." said Professor J.
Howard Moore, of the Crane Technical
High Echool. Chicago. In addressing the
International Antl-Vivlsection Congress
here today.
"If I were making a world and could
arrange it as I wanted to." said Pro
fessor Moore, "only humanitarians
would be allowed to practice vivisec
tion. Only those would be allowed to
practice it who would be as economical
in inflicting pain on others as they
would be in inflicting It on themselves.
"Vivisection rests on tradition. The
favorite Action of those who practice
It is that 1000 dogs or monkeys or
guinea pigs are of less consequence
than one human being.
"Anyone who has ever associated
with dogs or monkeys long enough and
Intimately enough to know them knows
that they compare very favorably with
human beings in their powers of feel
ing and In their ability to get out of
life what little there Is in it."
Adopition of resolutions calling on
Cod gres to appoint a Joint committee
to investigate vivisection and various
other forms of cruelty to animals
brought the meeting to a conclusion.
Other resolutions asked Congress to
establish & closed bird season for Ave
years and to appoint a committee to
determine whether soma textbooks In
use in American schools do not incite
children to acts of cruelty.
Miss Lind-Af-Hageby, of London,
told the delegates at their closing ses
sion that the antl-vivlsection movement
was a "part of the great progressive
movement of the present day."
Henry K. Canlus. of Philadelphia,
member of the Pennsylvania Ftate As
sembly, declared that to win their fight
the anti-vlvisectionlsts would have to
stick to facts, of which there are
plenty, and not try to make any wild
statements that they could not prove.
Mrs. Mary E. Lovell. of Philadelphia,
(aid she thought It would be well if
the church. Instead of preaching so
much about the mercy of God, would
"talk a little more about the mercy
expected of man toward the lower ani
mals, just as man looks for mercy from
a power greater than himself."

BALM, Or.. Dec 11. (Special.)
That Ray McCarroIl. under arrest here.
Is the man who shot John Zoller. Mar
shal of Gervais, Is the construction
placed upon a death-bed statement of
the wounded man by District Attorney
ltingo. Physicians say Mr. Zoller can
not live through the week.
Ho informed the District Attorney
that he and Ernest Kllnger, while
walking along the main street of the
town, saw a man trying to open the
door ol a store, as mey approacutru
be ran across the street to a vacant
lot.
"I followed him." continued the Mar
shal, "and when he did not stop at my
command I told my dog to "get him.'
As the dog neared an alley In tne rear
of the lot a man began shooting at
him. I then saw two men and told
them not to shoot the dog. One of the
men seized me by the waist and 1 shot
him in the shoulder. Finally I broke
away and fired as the other man shot
me."
Mr. Rlngo believes It a coincidence
that McCarroIl was shot In the shoul
der, believing the other man was shot
In the same place.
McCarroIl, several hours after the
shooting, applied at the police station
In this city for assistance. Ht con
fessed to Sheriff Esch that be was one
of the men . who had engaged in the
battle with the Marshal, but insisted
that his companion did the shooting.
The District Attorney says he can
prove that both McCarroIl and his
companion had pistols.
100 chickens she tried to raise this
Summer but six have escaped the rata.
Another woman lost all but 1 out of
an equal number. Besides destroying
poultry the rodents do other damage.

CHICAGO, Dec. 11, A strike of
school children to force the restoration
of Mrs. Ella Flagr Young as superin
tendent of the schools was urged to
night in a public, adaress by Barrett
O'Hara, Lieutenant-Governor.
'The decent people of Chicago cannot
afford to permit the forced resignation i
of Mrs. Young to pas un rebuked," he
said. I believe tnat rainers ana
mothers should rtmcve their children
Immediately from attendanco at the
publio schools as a rebuke to the un
derhanded and unprincipled methods by
which Mrs. Young was removed.
"Let the people keep their children
away from the public schools until the
Board of Education has restored Mrs.
Young."
Mayor Harrison's office was besieged
by representatives of women's organi
zations today protesting against the
loss of Mrs. Young to Chicago's educa
tional system.
The Mayor told the women that he
wanted Mrs. Young in office and he
promised to aid their light in every way
possible. He declared he would force
the resignations of several members of
the School Board who voted against
Mrs. Young in the session yesterday
that resulted In her resignation.
"I will let the first move be made by
the women." said Mr. Harrison. "I sug.
gest that they ask Mrs. Young to re
consider her resignation and that they
remember it is now necessary to cre
ate a vacancy In the superintendency.
It seems to be up to Mr. Sboop to re
sign. I understand the women's organi
zations will urge his resignation."
Mayor Harrison was outspoken In a
denunciation of the Board members
who voted against Mrs. Young. He said
he had the resignations of six of them,
who placed them In his hands when
they took office.
"Are you going to accept any of these
resignations?" he was asked.
"I am." he replied. "I wrote letters
to every member of the Board, asking
Mrs. Young's re-election. I don't be
lieve some of them would have voted
against her If the vote had been taken
In the open. They have adopted under
handed methods and they are not In
sympathy with the administration. 1
know what I would do If I were a mem
ber of the Board and such expressions
were used about me."
Mrs. Young has made no statement
since her first assertion that she would
not hold office without ths unmistak
able support of the Board.
A resolution in the City Council call
ing upon Superintendent Shoop to re
sign was referred to the committee on
schools .although some Aldermen made
a hard fight for its Imrrediate passage.
Neither Mrs. Young nor Superintend
ent Shoop would comment tonight when
they learned of the attitude of Mayor
Harrison.
It was announced tonight that Mrs.
Young had accepted a position as edu
cational educator on a Chicago nes s
psper. a.id would devote her time to
editorial work.

Todays proceedings were brief. Miss
DeWolfe sued the Continental Ac Com
