Trustee Wilson submitted for the con-
sideration OF the board a project TO pur-
chase a triangular plat Of ground ad-
joining the Addison School, with an area
OF 1900 square feet, which would cost 90

that the lot should be purchased, If pos

and were not Mr. Wilson and Mr. Hod-
man in town?
There was a discussion when they left
that day and the adjournment was made
sine die because that room in the County
Court House could not be had for meet
ing that was projected for Tuesday of
this week Nothing of a permanent ad-
jOurnment was mentioned then"
Mr. Moss denied having had any knowl
edge of the conference held by Messrs.
Fallows, Wilson, and Ever in the county
court house ON Tuesday of last week after
the meeting on that day at which these
three members decided that there would
be no more meetings. This decision was
referred on the following day to Mr.. MaZet,
who concurred in it and so far as was
learned today no word OF that action was
sent to Mr., Moss That is what has made
Mr. Moss angry. Neither Mr.. Mazet nor
Mr.. Fallows Will deny that that omission
was intended as a rebuke to Mr.. Moss for
certain letters which he wrote to them in
regard to witnesses whom he intended to
call. Mr. Moss let it be believed in an in
teryiew had with him yesterday that his
letters to the members OF the committee
had been pretty pointed. Mr.. Fallows ad-
mits that Mr.. Moss wrote some very i'm
portant letters to him and that one such
letter was received by him on Monday of
this week He will not discuss the contents
OF this letter, but it is believed to have
been an urgent request for the committee
to call Mr.. Platt. Mr. Mazet yesterday
denied that he had received from Mr.. Moss
any such letter as that Of which Mr.. Moss
spoke as having been OF great Importance.
Later Mr. Mazet admitted that he had
lately received such communication. To-
day Mr. MaZet said:
4 have decided 10 stop talking about tnls
thing. People can think what they want to
about the adjournment of the committee.
[ don't care what differences are drawn
from the remarks of other people"
Some of the members of the Mazet Com
mittee met in the Office of the chairman
this morning to discuss the work Of draw
ing up the committees report. Mr.. Moss
was present. but Mr.. Fallows remained
away Before the conference began Mr..
Mazet said. that only the details of the re-
port would be discussed there.

AFTER UNLICENSED DOGS.
The POundmaster 10 Gather in All
Wandering CANNES.

In accordance with the action of the
Commissioners, Thursday, in authorizing
him to use the emergency fund for the
means, Poundmaster Einstein. yesterday
increased his force by the addition of three
new wagons and the necessary number OF
men to work them He has been given
orders to get to work Immediately in col
Iecting all unlicensed dogs that are found
in the streets.
The Health Officer has communicated
with the Superintendent of Police and re-
uuested him TO instruct his officers to pro-
secute all cases of untagged dogs that may
come within their power. 1t is said that
there has not been a prosecution al the
Police Court for the maintaining OF an
unlicensed dog for years and the health
officials have requested the Commissioners
to ask the judges of the court TO deal as
severely with this class of offenders as
possible.
The prevalence OF hydrophobia in the
city is due, it is said, to the number OF
wandering CANNES that are taken in by
kind hearted persons. who are interested
in dogs but who do not care enough for
them to pay the license. These persons
should be compelled to tag their dog or
send him to the pound. The Health Ofh-
Ger proposes to rid the city of the number
of worthless ours that are running at large
and he states that he cannot do this if the
people will not help him
