MAKING NIGHT HIpEoUs.

IT HE law OF nuisances is not very
L clearly defined and Ia each case
must be left largely to the discretion
of the court. A remonstrance received
by the Board Of Health among other
things complains OF barking dogs
Whether this comes within the scope
of the boards authority We do not
pretend to say. but we doubt il
However. the barking OF dogs and
the yowling and screechlng OF cats
constitute one Of the nuisances that
most Of us have to endure. and to
sick or nervous persons it is tor
ture that has to be borne night after
night
1t is matter difficult TO control
and the person annoyed is helpless
Now most dogs have home and al
owner. and it would seem only proper
that upon that owner should be
placed the responsibility FOR the cor.
duct of his dog. But the cat tribe is
so numerous and its instincts SO mo-
madic that % place the responsibility
on owners is impossible.
But certainly in this age OF progress
we should find way OF restricting
the unearthly noises which in our
towns and cities make night hideous.
We should imagine that there are sew
eral thousand homeless cats in this
city. They prowl around. searching
garbage pals. and congregate in TIE
back yards and alleys for their night
~ concerts. And the man who has
money to spend for all comforts and
convenience is powerless TO abate the
nuisance.
1t is more than likely that these
nocturnal providers scurrying all over
the city carry diseases; and this may
in part account for our epidemics. II
it is necessary TO capture and destroy
homeless and worthless dogs. 1t is
lequally important TO reduce our feline
population. Perhaps the Health
Board may find that il has greater
problem than was at first anticipated

CHURCH FIRES
Many edfiees Burned Yearly-lnosn-
diarism Is Chief Cause.

TAe destruction OF st. Thomas
Church has called attention to fires
in churches in this country. They are
numerous and some insurance men are
wondering if they can be classified as
good risks. According TO a well-known
Insurance man between ZOO and 500
churches are DESTROYED by fire each
year. In the Is years ended with 1901
there We're 5,597 churches burned Of the
total value OF $50. 1909. l2I. the Insurance
loss amounting TO SiO.9eO65S.
Fires in churches are from all sorts
Of causes, and in at least 40 per cent
the cause could NOT be traced. In the
is years 3.S65 causes were reported.
Lightning set fire TO 6S2 buildings and
headed the list, but strange to say in
cendarism stood next, with 675 fires
to its credit IL is probable that most
OF these are spite cases.
Defective hues caused sos fires and
furnaces were responsible for just as
many. Candles caused 100 1t is pos
ssble that many of these are from
Christmas trees. Lamps caused l25.
stoves liz and defective heating 50.

Japanese Diplomacy.

From the Denver Republican.
1t was more or less definitely asserted
shortly before the peace conference open
ed that the Japanese representatives
would nof~employ diplomacy In other
words, It was claimed that they knew
what they wanted, and that after they
presented their demands it would be for
Russia to choose between acqa;escesce
and a resumption Of active military opsr.
ations
It appears, however, that TIE Japanese
arc far from aeherins to mat policy. In
fact the, seem 20 have been employing
Che arts Of diplomacy from the outset. and
IN tins connection It may be well to re.
member mat it IS diplomacy Of the ori.

all. however good miiators of some OF
the Western nations they may be, and il
may be depended upon that ie they car

ton that Japan has its foot upon Rus
sia's neck and that the Car and his en-
pire are helpless. We may depend upor
IL that however flushed with victory they
may be, the Japanese are making No
such mistake. They knew that they have
checked Russia at points far removed
from the centre Of the empire, but that
they have not yet inflicted a very serious
TO say nothing of a mortal wound.
Recognizing the truth of the situation
the japanese ENJOYS will probably resort
TO all the available arts of diplomacy
rather than let the peace conference end
in failure. They can control Korea ms
against Russia, and they probably can
drive the Russian armies out of Man
chura. But beyond this there is not much
that they can do. Hence they will got
all they can out Of Russia 10y negotiation
rather than be forced to a resumption Of
hostilities.

CENSOR OF POSTCARDS
Allegheny Official Says That He Con-
fiseates SO to 100 Each Day.

Postmaster John Francis. of ALLIE

ing as censor for picture postal cards
and has confscated about 900 of
them. In talking Of the matter today.
he stated
MANY of the picture postal cards
received in this Office are of such a
mature that it is impossible to send
them to the parties addressed. This
does not refer merely to those mailed
at the Allegheny Office, but those re-
ceived from elsewhere. Many Of these
are addressed to prominent persons.
and some of them are mailed by per-
sons equally prominent who conceive
that the sending of such card is
funny.
This class of mail matter, however,
has become so degenerate that it
CONSTITUTES an infringement Of the pos
tai laws. After l had begun the con-
nscation of such pictorial cards and
forwarded them to Washington l re-
ceived a letter from the First Assist
amt Postmaster General. who COM
lmended me for my initiative and re-
quested me to continue the good work
lThis is being done at the rate of con-
nscatlnR from on 10 AVv tdiuS .udllN'
If such cards fail to reach their
destination it need not be thought by
the sender that they have got lost in
transmission. on the contrary it is
because they are in such bad taste
that il is simply impossible to allow
Them to go through. With regard tC
