Judge Bradley has decided in the case of Ernst Gerstenberg that the police reg- ulations relative to dangerous dogs are repugnant to the act of Congress of 1878, and that the act of Congress is the law here on the subject. Mr. Gerstenberg was fined in the Police Court in August of last year for keeping a dangerous dog, called Bismarck, and the court ordered the execution of the animal. The owner of the. dog endeavored to ob- tain from the District Supreme Court a writ of prohibition, but subsequently that movement was abandoned, and the case was carried to that court on a writ of cer- uorari, Attorney Thos. M. Fields arguing the case before Judge Bradley for Mr. Gerstenberg. The judge overruled the mo- tion of the district attorney to quash the writ, ordering the proceedings in the Po- lice Court to be quashed, and holding that the act of Congress of 1878 is the law. That act provides that if the owner of a dangerous dog allows it to run at large and it bites an individual at any other place than on the premises of the owner he shall be punished by a fine. For the second offense the owher shall be pun- ished in like manner, and for the third of- fense the Commissioners shall order the dog shot, in addition to a third fine to be paid by the owner. Bismarck will now probably emerge from a forced retirement of a year or more. —— Paying Election Bets. Wheelbarrow election bets continue to be paid, and yesterday evening Mr. J. V. Lea- man of 41 L sireet northeast, who was sure of Bryan’s election, wheeled Mr. J. E. Bonini of 731 North Capitol street, who was equally sure of McKinley’s victory, from the latter’s residence by way of E street and New Jersey avenue to the Cap- itol, thence to the treasury by way of Pennsylvania avenue and back to the starting place, along New York avenue and H street. Every time Mr. Leaman stopped or tipped over the wheelbarrow he was compelled by the terms of the wager to ask Mr. Bonini what he would have in a lquid way. The leniency of Mr. Bonini in regard to this part of the bet was com- mendable in the extreme, for there is no telling what would have happened if he had insisted on a rigorous observance of it. me Mr. Michael Brennan occupied the seat ef honor iu a wheelbarrow. which was propelled by Mr. Harry Nolan, from 6th to 7th street on H street northeast and re- turn several times, while John Pyles wheel- ed W. Emmet Hooper from 4th and Mary- land avenue northeast to 4th and Pennsyl- vania avenue southeast by way of 4th street. lo Will Filed. The will of the late Clement Wells Ben- nett, dated December 22, 1894, appointing the widow of the testator, Margaret Mariah Bennett, as executrix, has been filed. The widow is given premises 1101 H street and also a lot at Delaware avenue and S street. Premises 802 11th street are given to Adele M. Bingham, a daughter, and to another daughter, Alice B. Bennett, premises S00 lith street. —_>__. The City's Health, There are less than three dozen cases of diphtheria in the city at present. Health office officials say there are many cases of typhoid fever, and a number of the patients are on Capitol Hill. A physician saggests that perhaps the milk supply should be investigated and the sewers flushed. Sewer gas on Capitol Hill, especially along East Capitol street, has been very nauseating recently.
