SHOCKING DEATH OF A CHILD AFTER HAVING
BEEN BITTEN By A DOG.
From the Philadelphia Times to-day.
Little Albert Tamney, the four-year-old son
of Benjamin F. Tamney, who lives at s23 Bam-
brey street, near 25th and Parrish streets, died
yesterday morning of hydrophobia. On No
vember IA last the child was playing withs
number Of other children in the vicinity of his
home, when dog made it, appearance. AL
lie" in company with the others. fondled the
animal, which appeared 20 be playful n
kitten. The little fellow sat ON the sidewalk
and was vigorously petting the dog when. with
snarl. the animal sprang at him. bit him in
the check and then dashed down the street.
The wounded boy cried and his little compan-
ions took him home. DIR. J. o. Knock, of 252s
Brown street, was called in and he cauterized
the wound. ii healed nicely and
several days later the boy was at
play again with his companions.
On Friday last the child complained of feel
ing unwell. His temperature soon after reached
high point and he was put to bed The doc
tor was called again and be found Allie" deli
rious. Then he exhibited unmistaksble signs
of hydrophobia. He with difficulty kept
in bed. glass of water was brought 20 his
bedside and the lad Immediately went into con-
vulsions. He frothed at the mouth and strug-
gled violently with the bed-ciothes. He did
not recognize his parents or any one In the
room The physician at once saw the case was
hopeless one and so informed the boys
parents. The child struggled in his paroxysms
on Saturday and throughout Sunday. At
O'Clock yesterday morning he died
The death of allie" following SO closely
after the death of young Joe Stephenson, OF
625 Pagoda street, q few squares away, from
the same cause, created some excitement in the
neighborhood yesterday. Some Of the dead
boys companions said that the dog answered
the description of the dog which bit stephen

ground wires. In April the reports of the Com
missioners and of Col Wilson showed the ad
vantages of underground wires for the
District of Columbia During the wear q
death occurred from the fall of a pole and q
severe accident from the overhead wires. The
House of Representatives wished TO make i'm
mediate provision for the burial of a part of
the wires, but the Senate preferred a compre-
hensive plan and a report from the Commits
sioners. who had steadily hitherto favored en-
underground system. The legislation, there
fore, took the shape above indicated. The
Commissioners have reported as directed and
favor the burial of all the overhead wires ex-
cept those of the electric railways. The APP
preparation bill of the present session as
passed by the House in effect forbids the en-
ployment of any but underground electric light
wires for the use of the District after Septem-
Der 80, 1889.
In controversy in June between the Safe
Deposit company and the telephone company
it was decided that the vaulting privilege is
superior to a permit to the telephone company
to lay wires under the sidewalks.
BETTER LIaHrISa.
Senator Spooner's bin to lower the price and
improve the quality of the city gas remained on

THE DISTRICTS WATER SUPPLY.
The proposition to pay the water expenses
wholly or in part from the general taxes, in
stead of collecting water rents, which had been
discussed by citizens in previous years, was
considered in 1888 by the citizens committee.
In July the Commissioners prepared a bill
on the subject which, after several amend
ments, was sent to Congress. 1t proposes TO
abolish water rents, SO far a. the domestic con-
sumner il concerned.

the amendment of the law and then thew or a
part of them. cancelled their approval of a
change and endorsed the law as it stands. The
teaching of 1888 has been that it is hopeless
to labor for an Improvement of the lien law
against the active opposition of a part of the
Commissioners. notwithstanding the fact that
there is absolutely only one side to the ques-
ton in common justice. unless Congress will
see an obvious reason for disregarding the
revised opinion of the Commissioners
THE STREETS OF THE CAPITAL
A large amount Of street improvement was
accomplished during the year. and the annual
controversy over street appropriations between
the various sections OF the city was waged with
customary vigor.
A satisfactory increase has been made in the
number of trees ornamenting the streets. In
the autumn they numbered about 65, 900.
Much just complaint has been heard concern
ing the condition of the sidewalks. These are
laid or repaired under the permit system and
Congress has made insufficient appropriations
under this head to accomplish a general reno
walton.
The work of
IMPROVING THE POTOMAC FLATS
has made some advances. The river and har.
Dor bill OF the first session of the year appro.
priated $500, 900 for this purpose. The item
was omitted altogether by the House. An ap-
preparation of 100000 was proposed by the
Senate. As a compromise the sum of $500 00(
was granted. In the river and harbor bill of
the second session an appropriation Of S15O0O
was proposed by the House committee This
action is distinct gain for the improvement,
| as the House committee has hitherto refused
to originate the fats appropriation on the
ground of disputes concerning title to the re-
| claimed ground. These doubts have now beer
removed. The second river and harbor bill
! is still under consideration in Congress. By the
failure of the river and harbor bill of 1881
through the Presidents veto the work on the
fats practically ceased for lack OF funds until
the first bill of 1883 became law. Apprehen.
sion was felt that through this delay in getting
the improvement in shape to resist foods al
that had been accomplished might be lost
through some sudden rise in the Potomac. But
! fortunately no food visited the city, though q

DISTRICT LAW IS STILL CHAOS.
But With the development Of Washington into
a great city a gradually increasing attention
has been given to its concerns by Congress.
The House, during the year, determined to set
apart two Mondays in each month for consider
alton Of its affairs. instead of the one previously
assigned. The District is blessed with q
Mark Tapley hopefulness, and looks with
confidence to the future for its laws.
LAWS BY ISDIBECTIoN.
The District Commissioners have by special
authority Of Congress made regulations in re-
gard TO plating subdivisions of land in the Dis
trict which have the force of law and which
viii exercise an important influence in bring
ing the plan of suburban Washington into sub
stantial conformity with that of the original
city. Additional and direct legislation on this
ole Important changes at the District build
ing have been made during the year. Major
Ludlow, energetic and progressive in ideas but
nctatorial in manner, has given way as engi-
neer Commissioner to Major Raymond. Capt.
Leach succeeded Capt. Griffin as his assistant,
and was in turn succeeded by Capt. Lusk
The republican collector and auditor we're dis
missed during the year, not be 1t understood, be-
cause they were republicans, but on the alleged
broad ground Of administrative expediency.
In the latter part of the year an interesting
controversy arose over the Commissioners
methods Of buying sites for District public
buildings through an agent or middleman who
made large profits in the few transactions con
corning which publication was made. The
payment of compensation to these agents by
the District was conceded to be unauthorized
and Illegal. But the Commissioners commended
that they are paid not by the District but
though unconsciously, by the owner Of tbs
property. Legislation intended to correct thi,
method Of purchase was inserted by the House
IN the appropriation bill, and resolution Il

ported by the District committee, 10 pending IL

A Destructive Blast.

Monday afternoon at Bisbee was ono
 long to be remembered by at least a
 score of the inhabitants of that lively
 burg. The railroad company are ex-
 cava,ing just in the rear of the busi- ] ness houses on the side of the street
 next to the high hill. The ground be- coming little too hard to mako rapid
 headway without the use of powder some deep holes were put down from
 the top of the bank and about ten feet away from the rear of Mrs. Bar
 ney's place. The saloon adjoining was crowded with Mexicans who were concentrated around faro game in the rear, when the blasts went of. One of them which evidently had been charged too heavily tore down several tons of loose rock and dirt. The second one was still heavier snd s ton or more ofrock was thrown with great force through the rear Of the s.- loon and the postoihcc building. Not a pane of glass was left. IL was mir ac.e that ne one was killed although many were severely Injured.
 The faro game was, il is needless to state, broken up. The dealer made grab for the coin while the crowd tum- bled over each other in their effort to get away The saloon looked as though i; had been blown up. Win dows across the street were shattered | into fragments and rocks were i'm bedded in the adobe walls of the ad- | joining buildings to q depth of several inches. IL is estimated that over $500 | worth oi damage was done.
