California Pound Master la Now
Threatened With Vengeance.
SAN ANSELMO Cat. Oct. 31
The poundmaster of San Anselmo
has discovered that it is a difficult
feat to please all the people any of
the time, especially when dealing
with dogs. George A. Martin, the of
ficial in question, was frequently or
dered by the board of trustees to ga
ther up all stray canines. The result
was a collection of sixty and they
were locked in Martin's barn for the
night There was little sleep in San
Anselmo after the five dozen dogs
had gauged the accoustics7 of
the place. It was decided to
shoot all dogs that remained un
claimed at the end of thre days
and the result was a dreadful slaugh
ter. Then, all too late, it was dis
covered that the dogs of gome prom
inent citizens had been sacrificed.
Martin is threatened not only with
damage suits, but with the wrath of
'the humane society, which declares
the proceedings irregular.
