AFTER UNLICENSED DOGS
POLICE INSTRUCTED TO PROCURE A
LIST OF THEM.
Prosecution to He Ordered of Persons
Who Have Failed to Pro-
cure the Tags.

War, vigorous and to the death, has been
declared against the canine tramp and all
of his unlicensed brother dogs within the
Jurisdiction of the District of Columbia.
The time for taking out dog licenses ex-
pired with the last day of July and, after
waiting nearly a month. the District Com
missioners have concluded that time
enough has been given all owners to secure
proper and legal privileges for their ami
mails.
President mcfarland of the board OF
District Commissioners today requested
Maj. Sylvester, the chief Of police, to In
struct his men throughout the city and Dis
trict to secure the names of all persons
owning or claiming possession of, or who
are responsible for, unlicensed dogs and to
report the same within the next week or
ten days. II is the intention OF the COM
missioners and the police authorities TO
vigorously prosecute all such owners, ana
they will be summoned into the Ponce
Court The law provides for fine of not
less than S. and not more than SO
In this connection Commissioner Mac
farland has also instructed the poundmas-
ter to vigorously pursue all untagged dogs
1t is believed that the active crusade just
ordered will successfully rid the District
of all undesirable CANNES. Mr. Macfar-
land makes the point that a man who
values dog and who will take tare of
him will provide license and tag FOR
the animal The tramp dogs and those
whose owners do not think enough OF them
to buy protective license, he says. are the
ones who make practically all of the trou-
BILE Citizens wishing to assist the Com
missoners in this work might do so by
reporting all the cases of unlicensed dogs
that come to their attention directly to the
police
The Laws Provisions.
The law on the subject of dog licenses
and tags is very explicit. 1t says:
1T shall be the duty of any person own
ing or possessing a dog to place or cause
to be placed and kept around the neck OF
such dog a collar, on which shall be marked
and engraved in legible and durable char
acters the name of the owner or possessor
and the letters d. c. and to which collar
must be attached the insignia or tax tag
furnished by the District tax collector,
under the penalty of not less than five nor
more than ten dollars: and II any person
shall put or cause to be put collar with
the insignia or tax tag around the neck OF
any dog owned or possessed by any per-
son or persons residing in the District
without having obtained license for keep
ing such animal, he. she or they shall FOR
felt and pay the sum of not less than hve
nor more than ten dollars for each and
every offense.
The law being so plain about the collar
and tax tag the authorities, 1t Is said,
will not accept in future the excuse so often
offered that license Is owned, but the tag
has been misplaced in some manner or
stolen.

ANNOUNCES ITS POSITION.
National Union Insurance Company 4
Independent Attitude

Independent Attitude.
An announcement Of the position of the
National Union Fire Insurance Company in
regard to the local difficulties has just been
made by Mr.. Henry o. Towles the presi-
dent of the company. He states that while
his company has withdrawn from the Asso-
citation Of Fire Insurance Underwriters of
the District Of Columbia, in common with
eight Of the local companies, it has not
affiliated with the organization formed by
these local companies. The assistant Sec
rotary of the company, Mr.. Philip F.. Lar
ner. who was chosen vice president of the
new board, has neither accepted the place
nor declined 1t. There was no representa-
tive of the company present at the meeting
when the new board was formed and there
has been no meeting OF the directors of the
company since that date. AS far as the
National Union Is concerned, has thus
far taken no action except to withdraw
from the old association. Its position is
Identical with that Of the Potomac COM
pany, which Is not connected with either
of the two organisations.
The secretary of the company, Mr.. Noble
d. Larner, Is at present at Asbury Park.
where he has been spending the summer.

Russian Horses.


From the Saturday Review.
The Cossack troopers are fearless horse

the steppes in the most daredevil fashion,
and when they have broken them tant bien
que NAL they fondle them into friendship.
The Cossack cares for his horse as for him.

with the forage.
Russia has almost inexhaustible breeding
grounds to draw upon, and IL ii pays to
send English horses to St. Petersburg 1t is
only because there is some demand for
h.gh-bred animals. The horses of the
Asiatic steppes are low. though tough and
wiry, but they are the better fitted for cam
paigning that, before being caught at three
years old and upward, they have been accli-
matized to rough weather and accustomed
to fend for themselves. Those brought
from the wide plains bordering on the Don
and the Dnieper are almost equally hardy,
but In better condition, for they are helped
with forage through the severity Of the WIN
ter and are given some sort of shelter. In
all of them Capt Hayes detected a strong
Infusion OF Arab blood. In more northern
regions the breeds have been improved by
the importation of foreign sires, and the
heavy cavalry is chiefly mounted from
Lithuania. Many wealthy land owners have
also done much in their private haras. and
Capt. Hayes has given a favorable report
Of what he saw in one of these establish
ments, which was managed by Americans.
