ment, on G street between 10th and 18th
streets has been purchased by Woodward

ward & Lothrop will erect upon the site a
building which will be an addition to the
present large structure used for their bust
ness. When that Improvement is made the

Danger at Crossings.

To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
/ would respectfully call the attention Of
the authorities to the danger to persons at
crossings of the avenues and streets of the
city by being run over by drivers of all
kinds of vehicles. Men, women and chill
dren are compelled to get out of the way
by running if they were dogs. 1t is I'M
derstood the law is plain In regard to this
matter. Why, then, are these violators not
arrested and fined to the full extent? This
would put a stop to this dangerous practice.
There have been threats to use firearms by
some rather than submit to this thing
longer. 1t is also noticed that many Of
those drivers are not sober as they
should be. There seems to be neglect
somewhere. Some few years ago two men
were knocked down and it is thought both
died from the carelessness of drivers and
l do not think anything was ever done
or the parties prosecuted. There is also
another offensive practice INDUCED in by
many men of iate-that OF swearing and
using disgusting language along the thor
oughfares. They can be heard even from
indoors. This nuisance should be abated
as there is law enough to put a stop to 1t,
1t Is noticed that bicycle riders have to
comply with the law for fast running
Why not others when far more dangerous !?
