APPROVES MUZZLE ORDER. George R. Sheriff Believes It Should Be Enforced. Mr. George R. Sheriff of 1519 4th street has written to the District Commissioners assuring them of his hearty support in the matter of their order requiring all dogs run- ning at large to be securely muzzled. He expresses the hope that the order will be rigidly enforced not only for the present, but for all time. “I have never,” says Mr. Sheriff, “been able to appreciate the necessity for any one Keeping a dog in the city, and any dog, no matter how kind and gentle he may appear to his master, Is to a greater or less degree a menace to the community. Even though the dog may never have exhibited vicious traits, there is no telling when he may, and in most cases when he does the danger 18 irreparable: Referring to the children of Messrs. Cgn- nelly and Lynn recently bitten by a dog, Mr. Sheriff says that while this dog was designated as a tramp, any dog Is equally dangerous when affected with rabies, and that even his owner in nine cases out of ten would give him a wide berth when so af- flicted. ‘The life of every dog in Washing- ton,” he says, ‘could not nearly compensate for the sufferings of these children, nor for the anguish and pain caused their parents, not to mention anything of the expense which they are compelled to incur, which I Know is a heavy one, and in one case I know comes as a great burden. Were It ossible to absolutely prohibit keeping a ‘og within the city limits, there would ac- crue much greater good than evil.” —_>—__. AMUSEMENTS. MR.

W. Browning, Long a Resident of Washington, Passes Away. Mr. P. W. Browning died yesterday at his residence, 331 Missouri avenue, after an {'lness of only two weeks. He caught cold, which developed into grip, and subse- quently erysipelas developed. Owing to his extreme age, being in his eighty-ninth year, he was unable to recuperate. Mr. Browning spent practically his entire life in this city, and was, therefore, one of the oldest residents. He was born in Clarksburg, Md., in 1811 and came to this city when thirteen years of age. He served an apprenticeship in the tailoring business with Abner H. Young, then located at Pennsylvania avenue and 12th street, and on reaching his majority he entered busi- ness on his own account at what is now 327 Pennsylvania avenue, then a sma!l frame building. He subsequently bought the prop- erty and erected thereon In 1840 the first four-storied brick building to be constructed on the avenue between the Capitol and the White House, and continued the business tll 1861, when he purchased a farm one and one-half miles from Hyattsville, to which he retired. He enjoyed the patronage of a large number of leading men of the olden time, numbering among his friends Henry C'ay, Theodore Frelinghuysen, Jef- ferson Davis, Alex. H. Stephens, Andrew Johnson and a host of other prominent characters of ante-bellum days. In early life Mr. Browning married Miss Margaret Ann Wood, the daughter of a leading Jeweler of that period, whose es- tablishment was. about where Galt’s is now. There were twelve ohildren born of this union, nine of whom grew to majority, and six survive him. Col. Will Johnson, the eldest of his sons, was the private sec- retary of President Johnson from a period before the war till his death occurred, in 1866. Those living are Henry Clay and Theodore F. of Prince George's county, George P., who has been living with his father; Livingston, Arthur B. and Frank T. all well-known members of the local bai Mr. Browning is also survived by twenty. one grandchi:dren and thirteen great grand- children. His first wife died in 1887, and about eight years ago he married a Mrs. pen of Pennsylvania, who also survives im. The funeral will take place from his late residence at 10 o’clock tomorrow morning, when Rev. R. P. Willlams of Trinity Epli copal Church will officiate, and the six sons of the deceased wi!l be the pallbearers. The interment will be in the family lot at Con- gressional cemetery. —_+__.

Howard announced the death of Joseph Williamson and stated that he had read a letter from Mrs. Aiken, in be- half of the family, thanking the association for the sympathy shown. Dr. J. T. Howard said it was due to the fact that the association had loaned cer- tain maps that the government had won the Potomac flats case, and it had been un- derstood a copy of the record would be furnished the association by the authorities. He had called on Mr. Taggart in reference thereto, but the matter was now with the Attorney Genera!. Dr. Howard's action was approved.

Some discussion followed, Mr. Wineberger presenting a paper on the mall routes in the last century. A vote of thanks was tendered Mr. Barbour. Mr. Reiss called attention to the fllness of Messrs. Noble D, Larner and Wm. Beron, and a resolution of sympathy was directed to be sent them by the corresponding sec- retary. ——.__ EIGHT HOUSES BURNED. The Loss Occasioned is Estimated to Be $2,500. Eight small frame houses on Seaton sireet between 20th and 2ist streets north- east, were destroyed by fire between 3 and 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Police- man Knupfer, who discovered the fire, turned in an alarm and then went to the heuse of Harrison Walker, in which the fire started. He broke open the kitchen door and found Mrs, Walker asleep. The flames had gained considerable headway, and Mrs. Walker's life wes endangered. An overheated stove in her house caused the fire. There was a strong wind blowing at the time, and the flames soon spread to the other houses, which were vacant. It is be- lieved the damage will amount to fully $2,500. The property is owned by M. C.

He had been in the service fifty- one years, forty-six as a passenger train- man. He was railroading when Wheeling, on the Ohio river, was considered “out west.” He had but one serious accident dur- ing his long term in the service, and that was last November, in the yards at Balti- more, when Fireman Massey was killed.
