Killing Ducks.

1t is reported that someone, who is
not sportsman, is killing young
ducks in the sloughs and ponds in
this valley. There is an unusual
large number ofducks in the sloughs
this year, due, no doubt, to the abun-
dance of water, and the temptation to
have duck dinner cannot be resisted
by some. However, there is a severe
penalty attached to this form of law
lessness and the dinner is apt to come
high. The officers should see that the
law is enforced.

DISTRICT ENTITLED TO FEE.
Owner of Dog Must Pay for Animals
Without Tags,

According to the opinions of Health Of
ficer Woodward and Poundmaster Einstein,
when a dog has been impounded and re-
deemed by its owner, the pound fee of 81
should not be refunded to the owner. The
opinions were given with reference to the
application of r. E. L. Nicholson of the
Treasury Department, who asks for the
return of a s. fee paid for the redemption
of great dane, which had been caught
on the streets without tag, and impound-
ed by Officer Einstein's employees.
In reporting on the application Health
Officer Woodward states that the dog in
question appears to have been lawfully
impounded and was allowed to remain in
the pound for nine days before being re-
deemed. No protest. he says, was made
when the fee was paid for the dogs re-
demption. DR.. Woodward believes that the
fee should not be returned even If the eaui-
ties of the case could be allowed to offset
the requirements and even If the money
paid had not already been turned into the
United States treasury as the District was
put to considerable expense and trouble in
impoundjng the dog and feeding it for nine
days.

NEW CIGAR STAMPS.
Order for the Designs Has Not Been
Rescinded.

r. B. Armstrong, assistant secretary OF
the treasury. has returned from New York
where he went in connection with the pro-
test of the American Tobacco Company
against the proposed change in customs
stamps for imported cigars. This is the
case In which Mr.. Armstrong ordered the
preparation by the bureau of engraving
and printing of new designs for customs
stamps. The American Tobacco Company
has opposed any change in the stamps,
claiming that the present stamps are de-
sired by the public as a guarantee that they
are getting what they pay for. No state
ment was made at the treasury today as
to the matter, but it is known that no or
.ders have been issued for the resembling of
the order for the new designs Whether
this will be done later on is not known. 1t
will take six weeks to prepare the plates
and be ready for printing the new stamps.
and consequently there is plenty of time to
revoke the order before stamps are printed
and issued II the administration concludes
that is the wiser course Both the trust
officials and the independent tobacco men
are watching the situation closely.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star
ALEXANDRIA, Va, September 20. 1904.
With his right leg raked with a load OF
bird shot, Richard Ware, colored, hobbled
into the dock at the police court this morn
ing to be examined before Justice Beach on
the charge of attempting to steal chickens
The adventures and miSfortuneS of the
prisoner during brief period last night
were more sensational than those which fall
to the lot of the average plunderer Of the
hen house. Ware was chased from place
to place. He became the target for several
deadly weapons. and finally, wounded and
disabled he was run down, captured and
conducted to the station house. Joseph
Burke, colored, testified that he had seen
the prisoner creeping up to the hen house
in the back yard of the home of the Witness
on Oronoco street; at a late hour last night
Securing a shotgun Burke fired on the in
truder who fed. uttering yells of pain.
Another colored man testified that he
had been attracted by the noise and that
he was drawing line on Ware with his
gun Just before the shot was fred by
Burke. Ware, in his crippled condition, was
unable to proceed far before he was over
hauled and delivered into the hands of
Officers Arlington and Allen.
A half hour before the occurrence on Oro-
South Henry street, which they found to
have been fired by a Mrs Brown who
stated that she discharged pistol several
times to frighten away a man in the yard
apparently intent on stealing chickens The
officers think that Ware also figured in that
episode His alleged penchant for pur-
Joining fowls, the police state, has gotten
him into numerous troubles before. Only
a few days ago he was released from jail
after finishing. g. term for this offense.
Justice Beach Imposed a fine Of $40. :.

$780, against 1.16S5J4. the value Of the
