KILLED THE DOG.
Meaning of Shots at 18th and Penn
sylvania Avenue Today.

sylvania Avenue Today.
Three sharp pistol shots ringing out in
quick succession caused a sensation among
the throngs in the vicinity of PENNSYLVANIA
avenue and 18th street shortly after the
noon hour today. The crowds made a break
| in every direction, and then surged back to
the 18th street sidewalk at the rear of Har-
vey's saloon, where the smoke from the
shots was evident, and all sorts of tragic
expectations filled the minds of the speedy
curious, who forgot lunch and all else to be
in at the end of the carnage. The writhng
body of a big white bulldog lay upon the
pavement near the building line, and club
was near him. The animal bore marks Of
the latter on his head, and there were two
pistol bullet wounds in his body.
Several policemen and Humane officers
Rabbit and Wright We're quickly at the
scene, and their inquiries developed that
the dogs death had been accomplished by
Mr.. F. Springmann and his son. E L.
Springmann, the proprietors of SPRING
mann's express, at 931 D str .et northwest
Neither was present when the officers ar
rived, and after Mr.. Wright had put an
other pistol bullet into the dog in order to
efectually remove some barely discernible
signs OF life the Springmanns were visited
at their office. Here it developed that the
elder gentleman, one of whose sons died a
horrible death from hydrophobia several
years ago by reason of being bitten by
dog had driven in from his farm this morn
ing and stopped his horse and buggy in
font Of the d street office. An unknown
colored man came up d street leading the
big bulldog by long rope, and when the
latter came opposite to the horse he made a
leap and seized it by the nose. decorating
1t severely. Mr.. Springmann and his son
ran out and the dog was pulled away from
the horse. The negro promised to take the
brute to the first precinct station. The
Messrs. Springmann. unable to find DO
liceman, entered the buggy and followed
the negro, who. instead of going to 18th
street, where the station is located turned
down 18th street. The elder Springmann,
who had fortunately secured a stout club
told the negro to stop. and got out of the
buggy, whereupon the man unleashed the
dog, and after setting him Mr. SPRING
mann started off at dead run toward the
Smithsonian grounds. The dog made a
vicious attempt to reach Mr.. Springmann
who welded his club to good effect and
kept him off until his son ran to the buggy
In the box OF which was pistol, and Sc
curing the latter, shot three times at the
dog, twice effectively.

Reason for DELAY,

Mr.. W. c. Allen, the District electrical
engineer. has informed the Commissioners
that the delay in placing the street desig-
nations on the tncandescent lights at street
corners in lexington has been occasioned
by time taken to manufacture the special
frames necessary. These frames says Mr..
Allen, viii be delivered next week, and as
soon thereafter as the electric lighting
company can go to work the signs will be
put In place.
Mr.. Aliens report was occasioned by a
communication from the North Capitol and
lexington Citizens Association, in which
the Commissioners were asked to place the
signs as soon as possible.
