Summary

Atrocious cruelty has been proved against managers of a cinematograph show who arrange thrilling scenes. The spectacle chosen in this case was the fall of a runaway horse drawing a carriage over a precipice. The scene was actually performed while a photographer took it. The Lorient police magistrate did his best to punish the perpetrators of the cruelty, but the utmost he could do was but little. Letting off the photographer as having played no part in the horrible scene, of which he merely took the pictures, he censured the cinematograph managers in the severest terms, and indicted a fine.
