ITO THE OWNERS OF DOGS.
IAYoR'S OrFIcE

MAYORS OFFICE
ALEXANDRIA, Va May 30, 1894.
All persons owning or intending to keep
any animal of the DOG or CANINE species
must come forward on or before
JUNE ELEVENTH, 1894.
and take out license for the same from the
Aud tor. After the 11th of June ell persons
owning or harbOring DOGS found Oh his, her
or their premises without the required Ii.
cense will be fined (as the laws on the subject
require) SO for every DOG So owned or har-
bored.
Complaint has been frequently made that
many persons fail 10 take ont their Licenses,
and that others pay on one or two Dogs when
owning and harbOring more, or sending them
away during the summer months and bring
ing them back in the fall.
My attention has been called to this evasion
of the law, with the request to prevent it by
requiring the policemen to report all such
cases, and fine those who fail to take out IL
cense.
The Mayor hopes the police officers will
not be required To report any one, as the law
will be enforced.

A Mystery.

Topeka police officers are working on
mysterious disappearance and bur
glary case.
An old man named S. S. Cartwright
died here about four years ago, leaving
a considerable amount of property. He
had been living alone in quiet part of
the city, and nothing was known con-
corning his family. Soon after his death
woman from the south appeared,
claiming to be his wife, and number
of children were found of a former mar
riage, who refused to recognize the
claim Of the southern woman.
The case was legally settled in favor
Of the children, and one of the sons, S.
s. Cartwright, Jr., took possession of the
house owned by his father and has re-
sided there until two months ago, when
he left the city, telling the neighbors
that he would be absent for ten days and
requesting them to take care of his mail
and look after the house.
Nothing has since been heard Of him,
and recently the house was broken open
and ransacked, but no valuables taken.
The police examined the premises and
concluded that the house was entered
for the purpose of obtaining papers ana
documents relating to the estate, and
that Cartwright has been foully dealt
with. His sister and other relations
have been notified of tho circumstances
by telegraph.

Good Butter.

If you would make good butter, the
first point is to make a good keeping
butter. This keeping property Of
butter depends upon not leaving too
much casino or water in it, The lat
ter is the chief difficulty. If large
quantity Of water Is eft in the but
ter, the latter will never keep The
butter grains must be drained so as
to get the water out Of them as much
as possible aid the air in between
them, so as to sweeten and freshen
the grains and promote the growth Of
the benedcent bacteria which pro-
duces good flavor, Afterwards, Of
course, the air must be pressed out
and then excluded. La packing but.
ter use nothing but the best salt, and
be sure to soak the tubs Def rehand,
as otherwise the wood will draw the
moisture from the butter, to the det-
riment Of the latter. Oak tubs are
the most desirable as that kind Of
wood has little natural odOr for the
butter to absorb. If the butter has
been carefully made aud packed, COW
cred with parchment paper and then
with brine, and placed in cool, dry,
odorless place, it should keep we'll for
months.
