Youth No Protection Against the Ca
nine Hogie Man.
Owing to the imisinformation con-
veyed to the public by an evening
paper, to the effect that dogs under
SIX months Of age were exempt from
the operation Of the ordinance requir-
ing dogs to be licensed, the dog catchers
experienced no end of trouble yester-
DAY. They Wererconstantly reporting
at the city clerks office that owners
OF dogs refused to take out licenses
Tor their CANNES, claiming that the
ANIMALS were not six months Of age.
Inc police department also called the
city clerks attention to the trouble.
owners had refused to take out
hcenses for their dogs or to yield pos
session OF them to the dog catchers.
When asked for their reasons for re-
slstlng the law, they would confidently
assert that they did not "have to
license" their dogs. as they, the dogs,
were under six months OF age. They
Will be assured to the contrary to-
DAY. There is no provision in the or
dlnance granting an immunity to dogs
uhder SIX months or six minutes Of
age. nor is there any common law to
that effect. According to the law, a
uog is a dog, even though he may be a
puppy, and accordingly he must be
ncensed to be saved. This is dog re-
lglOn In a nutshell.

IS Up TO THE MAYOR
ORDINANCE ABOLISHING BOARD OF
PUBLIC WORKS AWAITS HIS
SIGNATURE.
WILL IT RECEIVE HIS SIG?
HE SAYS HE Is GOING TO READ
THE LAW BEFORE ACTING
ON 1T.
WILL 1T RECEIVE HIS SlGi
APPEAL TO COURTS NECESSARY
Before the Present Members Will
Consent to be Ousted--That
Is Considered Probable.

Mayor Doran has not yet received
from the city clerks office the ord1-
nance adopting the act abolishing the
board of public works. The measure
may reach his honor today however.
Whether it will receive his honor's ap-
proval or not is something that nobody
can predict from absolute knowledge.
Indeed. the mayor himself does not
seem to have made up his mind as to
the course he will pursue. When asked
yesterday what he intended to do with
the ordinance Mayor Doran said:
"I have not given the matter due
consideration and am not yet prepared
to take any action. I have secured a
copy of the act of 1895, adopted by the
ordinance, and I propose to consider 1t
carefully before deciding upon my ac-
ton in the matter"
Naturally there is some talk among
the city officials and politicians as to
the candidates for the office of COM
4, missioner of public works. George
Warren and John Copeland are the
names most frequently mentioned.
Warren seems to be unpopular with a
majority of the members of the council,
some of whom declare that the mayor
will never think Of appointing him.
The latest name mentioned in connec-
tion with the office is Capt H A. Cas-
tie, whose appointment as commission
er Of public works, would, so his sup
porters say, cure the present troubles
In the Republican party.
In case the mayor should sign the or
dinance and appoint commissioner of
public works, the question has arisen,
how would such commissioner proceed
to obtain possession of the books and
records of the board of public works.
1t is settled that the four members Of
the existing board of public works will
never yield possession voluntarily, un-
less the supreme court sustains the law
of 1895. This being the case, the COM
missioner of public works will be
obliged to apply to the courts for a
writ of mandamus or to institute quo
warranto proceedings against the
board, so the G o b was informed
yesterday by a lawyer versed in mu-
nicipal affairs In either event, the
board would set up in it's defense, the
unconstitutionality of the law Of 1895,
and so the case would be left to the
courts to determine, and until it is set
tied, the present board would retain
possession.
None of the members of the board
would talk on the subject yesterday.
All that President German. would say
was:
Sufficient unto the day is the evil
thereof We have nothing to say
now"
