To the Editor of The Evening Star:
The Marine Band concerts have leen
such enjoyable features of summer lfe in
Washington that it seems to me matter
Of regret that the public OF any portion of
1t should be hinderei in it's enjoyment of
them The bicycle has come to be such
standby as a means of travel that Il dis
elimination against people who use it is a
matter that is not entirely insignificant
Many people rode wheels 20 the White
House grounds on Saturday night ard
found that they could not take them inside
Rather than trust to the chance Of losing
a bicycle by theft, a number we~.t home
without hearing music. 1t seems to me
tEat rule prohibiting riding in the grounds
would avoid all the inconvenience which is
TO be feared from the presence of BICYCLES
IN the crowd, and at the same time allow
the bcycls-riJer to enjoy the concert with
out being annoyed by the thought that his
vince! may be selected by some dishonest
person from the lot that is 50 invitin Civ
arrayed against the fence. Such a dis
elimination could not be enforced in con-
nection with the concert at the CsDitol
grounds, and the White House grounds
have always been regarded as beina; 10 less
public in their nature than the others.

Shot the Dog.

Alexander Freeman, an old colored man
who lives only d short distance from the
jail. appeared before Judge Miller today
and told amusing story of how james
Walker had wounded his watch dog. The
canine went visiting at night, and when
Walkers peace and comfort were disturbed
ne got his shotgun and thought ne would
give the dog some reason to make a noise
And he done shoot de dog in de mouf,"
the old man said.
He said that there's whole heap of dogs
under Walkers house, and he does rot pre-
tend to own them.
Did the dog die?"
"'Dee1 he didn't, cause I done picked de
shot outen his mouf and tended to him de
bes' 1 could"
Walker explained how the dog had bark
ed and howled TO disturb him, md said he
could do nothing but shoot the dog to get
rid OF him. The dog also bit at him.
And, judge" said the old man, when 1
went and wanted Jim to settle for dat dog
he put his clothes and went away
IF you don't want your dog killed, You
VIII have TO keep him at home" was what
the Judge told the old man. and the charge
of cruelty to animals against Walker was
dismissed.

THE CATERPILLAR PLAGUE.
How Common Tar May Pc Used to Get
Rid of the CraNicrs.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Fifty years ago, when l was boy, the
trees in my native town We're infested and
sometimes destroyed by the caterpillars.
An old farmer suggested a remedy, which
was successful when applied. My father
followed the suggestion on the fine trees
on his grounds and also many of the citi-
zens'. The trunks of the trees were daubed
with circle of common tar, about foot
wide and six seven feet from the
ground The caterpiilars would crawl up
the trunk and then get stuck III the circle
of tar, and die like flies on fy-sticking pa
per. l have seen these tar daubs filed with
hundreds of dead caterpillars. When they
were full, more tar would be daubed over
them to catch a new batch, and so on.
Not one of the neighbors were injured in
the slightest, while hundreds of other trees
which had no tar on them were stripped.
Sometimes common coal tar would be used,
and the smell of it would drive the cater
pillars back to the ground. one single bar
rel of tar Is enough to daub several hun
dred trees, according to the size. They mad
tried whitewash, but In a few days it had
no effect and the caterpillars would crawl
over it. l have seen plenty Of whitewash-
ed trees in this city stripped.

a New Industry.

Restaurants In New York have grown
90 numerous In the last few years that
what may be called a Wholesale restau.
rant has been evolved. In these estab-
lishments meat Ia bought by the carcass
and vegetables by the barrel. In this
wise the proprietor can sell a great
piece Of roast beef or a shoulder Of NUT.
ton, thoroughly cooked, to q small res.
taurant keeper for less than the latter
would pay for the material II purchased
at retail. There are three institutions of
similar character here. Close on to
these people are the three or four men
who make a living In buying up the
remnants from big dinners, wedding re.
ceptiOns and similar social affairs, as
sorting them 10 as to be presentabls
and then selling them to cheap restau.
rants, boarding houses and saloons.
This new industry was started only
four years ago, but has pr0spered "a
well that It has probably come to stay.
