OWNER CAN’T BE BLAMED
IF COON GETS FEET WET
LONDON, Jan. 14.—If a racoon
knocks over a pan of milk instead of
drinking it and thereby gets his feet
wet, the owner is not guilty of cruel
ty to animals. The raccoon has only
himself to blame if his feet get wet.
This decision in animal jurisprud
ence was made yesterday by Magist
rate Cobb in Essex Market court in
the case of Harry Moran, agent of the
Humane Society, against George Ho
nig 20, a clerk in a fur shop at 2
West Fourteenth street. Honig had
put the racoon in the show window
Wednesday, and it turned over a pan
! of milk. A woman complained and
. Honig was arrested.
“Your Honor,” said Honig to Mag
istrate Cobb. “I don’t see how I can
sit up all night to keep the coon from
spilling its milk.”
“Quite right,’ ’agreed the Magist
rate, who turned to Moran and asked.
“Where do you want him to keep the
raccoon—at the Waldorf?”
Honig was discharged.
