USE OF THE QAT RIFLE,
Complaints OF Reckless Firing By
Unskilled Marksmen.

OAbAAAIC0 mo1k0mens
Complaints Of the use Of cat rifles are
being received by the police. The first
complaint was received at headquarters
yesterday, and was to the effect that two
young men were trying to exterminate
cats frola the neighborhood Of 4th and D
streets northwest, but really came near
shooting two ladies. One Of the leaden mis-
siles, 1t is said, went through a window
rear where the ladies were sitting
Nobody would object to their killing all
the cats in the city," said the citizen who
made the complaint. but such disregard
Of human life ought to result in putting a
stop to the practice"
Such conduct is punishable by a fine Of
from $40 to $40, under the police regula-
pistol or other firearms, torpedo, firecrack-
ers, sQuib or other fireworks shall be dis
charged or set off within the limits Of the
city of Washington, or within the fire linn
its of the District of Columbia outside of
said city, or in or on any public road or
a special permit therefor from the major
of police: Provided, however, That the pro-
visions of this section shall not apply to
licensed shooting galleries and similar
establishments between the hours of 6
o'clock am. and midnight of the secular
days of the week."
The complaint was referred TO the Off
GERS Of the sixth precinct for investigation.
Speaking Of the complaint, policeman
Seid 1t was not an unusual thing to hear
Of such alleged recklessness about Christ
mas time, but usually the complaints fol-
lowed the time when rifles are given as
presents to small boys. For several weeks
after Christmas until the novelty wears
away such occurrences may be expected
from the use Of the miniature guns.

Cake and Mince Pies,

sweets form no small portion of the cheer
and joy at Christmas time, and the holi-
day season without fruit cake or pound
cake or fat mince pies would be poor in
deed. Our grandmothers made their own
cakes and pies, but nowadays, when baker,
les are managed with such care as that Of
Kraft, al 18th street and Pennsylvania
avenue 1t is not necessary for house
Keepers to bother themselves with the
manufacture of such important Christmas
things. 1t may be remarked in passing
also that persons who prepare their cakes
and pastry at home may have them baked
at krafts at small cost.

composed Of a steel scraper and rubber
back, to which Is attached long pole or

necessity requires. The scraper cuts or
shaves off all refuse while the rubber back
permits none of 1t to escape. Hence the
