WANTED DOG KILLED.
Chas. Lang Claimed Mrs. Susan Riley's
Canine Was Dangerous.

Mrs Susan Riley of 1880 Vermont ave-
nue. northwest was named a defendant
in the District branch of the Police Court
this morning on a charge of keeping a
dangerous dog. Because of a statement
made to the court by Attorney Keigwin
that Mrs. Riley was III Judge O'Neal per-

avenue reported that while he was passing
Mrs. Riley's home several days ago her
dog, fox terrier, sprang at him and sank
it's teeth into his leg, drawing the blood.
He said that he was afraid that the canine
might attack him again, and asked that 1t
be killed. Sergt. Lee of the second precinct
had a small boy in court who had been at
tackled by the canine several days before It
bit Lang. Attorney Keigwin informed the
court that the dog was kept in the house
at all times, and that its owner Informed
him that she would not permit it to run at

Two Large Lighters Ordered.

A contract has recetly been placed with
the Alexandria Shipbuilding Company by
one of the larger coal handling firms Of
this city for the building of two large
lighters, to be used in carrying coal about
the harbor.
The lighters are each to be s. feet long,
"a feet wide and feet deep and will carry
several hundred tons of cargo. The mate
rial for the building Of the new boats Is on
hand and the construction of them will be
started in few days. 1t is stated that
when the lighters are ready for use they
will be put into service supplying steam
boats with bunker coal, is done at all
other ports. Washington Is probably the
only port of It's size In the country that
has no regular coaling docks where the
steamers and tugs can have their bunkers
filled with coal, and for years past there
has been talk Of having such dock estab-
lished, but nothing has been done. All the
steamboat companies having their head
quarters here have valuable wharf space
devoted to coal storage purposes that are
unsightly and keep the piers constantly
black with the coal dust flying with the
breeze. The proposal to furnish the steam
boats with coal from barges Is the first
step toward the abolition of the private
coal wharf and 1t Is welcomed by the
steamboat officers and managers.

ment to furnish the corporation counsel
with evidence to prosecute persons per-
hitting gas tar and other oily substances

girl in South Washington last night, carry
ing with him a loaded revolver. During the
evening they had some words, and Mar
shall pulled the weapon from his pocket,
causing the young lady to leave the house
with all possible speed. Policeman Holz

the house, where he had a conversation with
Marshall. The latter declared he did not
have a revolver but the young lady was
positive that he did have weapon. The
officer placed Marshall under arrest, and
on leaving the house stepped on the pistol,
which had been dropped on the floor.

Caught by an Old Trick.

Clinton Henry Jackson, colored resident
of Loudoun county, Va, was advised to
shun the city people when he came here,
and was told that the latter would get his
money from him If they possibly could.
Clinton thought he knew as much about
life as his city friends and failed to heed
the advice given him. He had been about
the city but a short time before he made
the acquaintance of a colored man who
told him of his luck in finding a 500 bill.
I'll give you S25," said the stranger, IF
you don't say anything about it."
The stranger explained that 1t was hard
to get so large a bill changed, and sug-
gested that Jackson might let him have a
few dollars to assist him. Just how his
few dollars could assist the city man Jack
son did not stop to consider. Getting the
$50 without working for it was a matter he
could not afford to ignore. Thinking of
the bad advice that had been given him. he
took out IS and handed 1t over to the
stranger.
And you are strangers STILL" he was
told when he called on the police and told
them how easy victim he had been.
