To the Ellitor of ‘The Evening Star: Permit me to indorse your editorial of the 9th instant, entitled “Ball Playing in the Street,” especially in regard to your Proposition that the police take the ini- liative against certain nuisances and there- by give some measure of Peace to the citi- zens and also obviate “neighborhood rows.” Your remarks while having refer- ence to a particular nutsance are equally applicable to many others. For instance, let us consider the dog nuisance. Hun- dreds of persons are kept awake night after night by certain dogs, or their fesl- ings rudely shocked during the day hy occurrences quite common on our sireets at the present time, but which cannot be properly named here. The only way at present to get rid of such nuisances is to have a warrant issued for the owner of the offending dog and appear as com- plainant in the Police Court. Of course “bad blood” is engendered and no one can foretell the consequences. Now, I sub- mit that the regulaiions or law should be changed so as to give the right to, or rather make it incumbent on, the police to make the compiaint and have the war- rants issued, ete., without bringing in in any way the citizens who make the com- plaint. The officer’s word should be suf- ficient as to a particular dog being a nuisance in a neighborhood, when it is taken every day a6 against that of a human offender. A man, woman or child yelling all night would be summarily deait with, but a dog may keep a whole neighbor- hoed awake without being molested until some citizen “worn to 4 frazzle” with loss of sleep takes the initiative and “goes to ccurt,” and likely as not breaks a frien ship or precipitates a ‘neighborhood row. At present dogs are allowed at large at night on the streets and may bark and howl without let or hindrance, since the police are powerless to prevent it. Ob- vicusly this is all wrong, and an ordnance should be passed giving the police the to kill every dog found at large barking o: howling. The disgusting scenes daily, even in our greatest thoroughfares, should cause the enactment of an ordinance forbidding the keeping of a female dog within the city limits. . There is a law in force which imposes a fine of $10 upon the owner of any female dog who allows her to run at large at cer- tain periods, and the Police Court will do its part effectively if cases are brought there, but the police neither kill the o: animal, as the regulations require, nor do they find the owner and take him to court. 1 vil referred to is growing worse year by year, and it is time a halt was called. My neighborhood is filled with worthless dogs, one man alone owning five, whick rush out into the street all night long and bark at every passing person or dog. It is simply horrible, and yet it can only be stopped by my spending a day the Po- lice Court. Is this right? If five persons should rush out and yell at every passerby the police would soon put a stop to it, but more consideration must be shown to dogs. Mr. Wight, put on your “thinking cap” some night and see if you can remedy mat- ters. If you find any difficulty in keeping awake I will gladly let you have the use of my library any night, and will guar- antee that you will be kept awake by the dogs. But you must not shoot one, for the Humane Society or the police will get you for_cruelty to animals. or for discharging a firearm on the street. The dog is well protected, but the man—“where, oh, where is he?” FOR QUIET AND PEACE. — DEATH OF GEO. Kk. EDWARDS. Beloved by AN, He Departs Surround- ed by Friends. Dr. George Kerr Edwards, formerly a resident of this city, died yesterday in one of the dormitories at Princeton University. As a boy he attended school in Washing- ton, and entered Princeton in the class of "80. He was one of the most popular men that ever went through that institution, and was probably known personally to more of the graduates during the last ten years than any other alumnus. He was about thirty years of age. After graduating from Princeton he took his degree in medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, and spent a couple of years in hospital work. After that his health began to fail. It was evident that he had consumption, and since then he has been compelled to live in California, though he has come east for every com- mencement and for some of the-more im- portant athletic contests. To his college friends he always said that he hoped he might die in Princeten, where the happiest years of his life had been spent. His wish Was gratified. Yesterday was class day, to the students the most important of the college year, and George, or “Horse,” Ed- wards, as he was better known, had come on for commencement. He was taken to Princeton Saturday, and carried to the "Varsity field to witness Princeton's vic- tory over Yale. Sunday he sank rapidly, and when he was told that his time was short he ex- eer a last wish to be permitted to die in Old East College. He was removed to his old room in the south entry of the dor- mitory, and passed away surrounded. by members of his class and his favorite pro- fessors. —_— Soldiers’ Monument Association. ‘The board of managers of the Union Sol- president, Dr. Frank T.
