The Dog Nuisance.

ED. STAR:-Can you inform your
readers why the town authorities per-
NIT our citizens to be annoyed by the
dog-pest in our town, without any effort
by law to reduce the number Of NANCY
CANNES and to protect us from the
scourge of hydrophobia f? The writer
was, with others, on Main street to-
day witness to what came near be-
ing serious tragedy. A large wagon
drawn by four large and powerful
young horses, was on the point of be-
ing run away with, by dog.fght be-
tween three or more dogs which, by
their olamor and yelping and savage
cries, frightened the horses, and moth
ing but the good management of the
|shorses and wagon by the driver and
wheelmen prevented very serious con-
sequences.
1t is to be hoped our authorities
will not longer expose the public to
such nuisance and danger. Night
is often made hideous and sick people
seriously annoyed by the barking and
bowling of these scurvy brutes. This
is an evil that should be suppressed.
The remedy is simple and efectual. =
Let the Town Trustees pass an ordis
nance that every dog found going at
large in the limits Of our city, after a
given day-the 10th day after date
shall be killed by the Town Sergeant,
unless he shews by wearing around
his neck a leather strap or collar with
his number stamped in a piece of tin
on the collar, that his owner has paid
the annual tax on said dog of One
Dollar. The collars so prepared should
be kept on hand by the town officer,
and to be had Of him exclusively, none
to be used except those sold by the
corporation.
Such law will have two strong
recommendations. l. Many owners
of useless and troublesome dogs will
kill or send them away, by which
means the town will be relieved of the
present large number Of these pests.
2. The cash sale of the collars will be
a very efectual and cheap plan of
collecting the dogtax.

Thursday.
Mr.. John Kaufman is once more on

pleased with his situation.
Grettes L. Rothgeb, known to everybody
hereabout as "the accommodating little

firm. He goes to visit relatives in Page
county, and after spending short time
with them will leave for the west to grow
up with the country" and the hopper
grasses. Success be with him.
Mr. Henry, of the Winchester Meas, ac-
companied by about half dozen of his
sons. passed through our town last Sunday,
to join his wife, who has been visiting
friends in this vicinity. For the informa-
ton of those who do not know, we would
state that Mr.. Henry is already blessed with
seven boys, several girls, and has good
prospects for as many more. But how a
country editor can manage to find food for
them all is what is past finding out-at
least by the bachelor editor of the STAR,
ing on pumpkins, pine-knots and persim-
mons. The Neaos must pay.
DR.. Miller and wife left on Tuesday last
for trip to Long Branch. The doctor has
been very assiduous in the practice of his
profession for some time past, and a trip to
this famous watering place will no doubt
prove beneficial to himself and spouse.

pears in another column. 1t is not
too early to begin making prepare
tions to attend by those wishing to
carry off some of the many excellent
prem iums which are offered by the
management. 1t bids fair from pres
ent appearances to be one of the larg-
est and most interesting gatherings Of
the kind ever witnessed in the county

DULL TIMEs.--Ttere has been a
general complaint among our mer-
chants and business men during the
past month regarding the great stag
nation of business. Stephens City has
been very dull during the past month
very little doing in any branch of
business, In few days, however, we
hope there will be a change-the
farmers will then have finished up
their harvest work, and will visit our
town to make their customary pur-
chases, and business of all kinds will
again brighten up and become brisk.
