Discussion of Method of Impending

A suggestion was made to the District
Commissioners recently that the collectins

Of which. 1t was pointed out, is conducive to
the spread Of rabies. 1t was further sug-
gested, q remedy for these conditions
that, if practicable, the poundmaster be
provided with a varied assortment Of muz-
zles, and that he be instructed to muzzle
the dogs upon capture.
The matter was referred to the pound
master, Mr.. Samuel Einstein, who has re.
ported to the Commissioners that in his
opinion the proposition Is impract1cable II
Is very rare thing for dog to bite an
other, he states, while being conveyed in
the wagon to the pound. At the pound
every precaution is taken to prevent such q

The navy is short Of enlisted men and
also Of officers, and it Is probable that the
attention of Congress will be strongly urged
to provide for the latter deficiency AS to
the former, although the shortage is about
1000 men. there is already congressional
authorization for the employment of more,
and all that Is lacking is volunteers. But
as for the officers, with the increased num-
Der of ships in commission, and the addi-
lions being steadily made to the navy, 1t is
no longer possible to give them the tours
of shore service to which they are entitled.
