wholly prohibits the use thereof by pri-
vate individuals in their residences. An
objection might also lie to the regulation
inasmuch as it applies 10 the whole Dis
trict of Columbia. without regard TO
whether 1t is thickly populated section
thereof, which is a limitation upon the
power of the Commissioners in the act of
Congress.
while accidents have happened through
carelessness, ii is impossible, by regu-
lation which does not wholly prohibit its
use TO guard against the misfortunes and
carelessness of the inhabitants of a large
city The basis of governmental interfer-
ence of control is the public danger, and
as the danger TO the public seems to arise
only from the handling of large quanti-
ties, such danger is fully met as far as
it is possible to do SO by regulation, by
the regulations now in force. These
regulations confer ample authority upon
the officers of the Fire Department TO in
vestigate, and, to that end. 10 enter prem
ises where they have reasonable ground
to believe that gasoline is kept or stored
in violation of the law.
In my opinion, therefore, strictly con-
strued, article 2, section 2, OF the Police
Regulations does absolutely prevent the
use of gasoline for cooking purposes ey-
erywhere in the District; but construed
literally, as it has been heretofore, it
does not; If construed as absolutely pro-
hibiting such use, the regulation would
probably be held to be void. In my opin-
ion the construction which sustains the
validity of the regulation should be adopt
ed rather than that which destroys 1t.

To Exterminate Sparrows.

The subj ct before the Brattleboro
Bird club at its meeting recently was the
English sparrow The president said
the programme would include three
parts, selected readings, personal eX-
percnce and general discussion. The
readings were from Bulletin No l, issued
by the United States department of agri-
culture, treating of the English sparrow,
and the topics selected were, in part,
Introduction of the sparrow, destruction
of buds and blossoms, relation of the
sparrow to insects and recommendations
for legislation. One person present told
how the English sparrow one summer
took possession of tree near his win
dow, drove out native birds already
mes ting there, and kept all birds out of
the tree during the whole summer. An
other told of evergreens, formerly the
homes of countless robins, now occupied
wholly by English sparrows. the robins
having been driven out by them. Still
another testified to the incessant warfare
by the English sparrow against the
pUx lc martin. In the discussion the
point was male by some that any killing,
particularly shooting, etc. should be by
adults, rather than by younger persons,
and some questioned whether a better
way might be to make thorough destruc-
tinn of nests and eggs, thus merely
checking the increase.
