OMAHA, March 1910 the Editor Of The
Bee: so many people are criticising Mayor
Dahlman on his dog muzzle order l feel
some one should come to the rescue.
think where Mayor Dahlman Is wrong is
that he did not go far enough, as he should
have ordered that all eats have their feet
gloved so they cannot scratch. Cats some
times have Ats Ohey really dol and should
they happen to scratch people we might
have an epidemic of flts which certainly
would be a serious matter.
Therefore l suggest to his Honor, Mayor
Dahlmah. that the order include glowing
the cats, and save the people from any pos
sible harm. Yours for protection

George l.. Miller, president OF the Nebraska

he would like to open the door of his house

but / do believe that there ought to be
some steps taken by our city council to
prevent dogs running at large, and thereby
endangering people and children Of being
bitten. We pay taxes on our horses and
cattle, but We are not allowed to let them
run at large on the streets.
There are dogs In this city that run at

But when a complaint is made there can
be nothing done till the dog bites some

when the dog is allowed to go on OF the
owners property he should be muzsled or

From the Philadelphia Enquirer.
 It was a glorious evening in the balmy spring-tide, and the young mans fancy lightly turned to thoughts of matrimony as he sat beside the adored one on a gar den seat in the grounds of the Crystal Palace.
 She was a fluffy little blonde, but she had a cast-iron will of her own, and a plain speaking. He knew it, too, and there was a pereeptible tremor in his voice as he jerked out the all-important ques- ton:
 "Gug-Gertrude, darling" (and he gasp ed after the manner of freshly hooked cod) Tit must have been plain to you for long time past that I love you to dis traction. Tell me, my angel, will you be my own?"
 Well, George she answered, in her calm, level tones, that entirely depends ' Depends upon what, dearest?"
 Upon yourself, George. For instance, are you willing to allow me to have my own way in everything?'
 You should please yourself entirely, pet"

There were apartments, flats he supposed they called them. long rows of them, dngy, dreary, hopeless Blurred lights began to shine as the twilight fell. Har- rell had always hated November and the twilight. He looked about him now and there came upon him a sudden horror, and impulse to flee. It seemed to him that the eyes of some threatening creature were fastened upon him. The city seemed to him a great unclean beast of prey ready to spring upon him. licking It's chops now in the anticipated taste of hu- man blood. He thought he had conquered the city, but the eynicism of the city now lay plain before him Again there came to his ears the low moaning of some sui ferng creature-he did net know whether of his voice or another's. His pace quick ened to a half run, and he fled down the street without purpose, seeking only es- cape
 When he came more to his proper senses he found himself within the doorway of dingy apartment building, over whose en- trance was a simple sign: "Dr. Wallng- ford" Harrell found himself pushing on up the stairs pausing at length in front of a door with the same name upon a smaller sign He knocked and was re- ceived by a gray-haired man of middle age. who looked inquiringly at him and asked him in.
 T would like to see the doctor-Doctor Wallingford," began HarreI. "I am Dr. Walllngford. Walk into my office. please" replied the doctor 1 The office was simply the hall bed room of the apartment its single window facing upon the street. It's walls showed a few books, case or so of bottles, glasses and the like.

About him were books, heavy furniture, deep draperies. nar- row window or so let out upon the street, but no sound came through the shroIding and softening curtains. nor did rustic or whisper reach the car through tne sillsen covered doors which made toward the interior of the house. This was the sanc- tuary of the master For the last three months he had been nor, and more in the habit of resorting to 1t. Here he could have silence silence, and again s- fence, Of late he had seemed to crave 1t.
 Time was when Harrell looked upon these rich surroundings with pride Of own ership, They hattered him. In his twen- ty years of business life in tho city, he had reached suecess-an American suc- cess. Folk pointed him out in awe, In vast American envy. They felt certain reverence for this august residence, tall, severe, secluslve. Harrell himself joined them In this feeling. He was proud of his own success. For twenty years, with the fierce Joy of conflict, fe had kept the business pace, more than kept it. had made 1t, forced it. Others had Jagged and fallen. but not he.
 Now he asked himself how it was, since these things were true, he could feel anything like weariness O. fatigue, why 1t was that more and more often he came to this sanctuary to find solitude and silence. Yet as to that, whose af- fair was it but his own?
 It was Sunday afternoon. About Har- rell's chair lay component parts of two Sunday newspapers. He had been trying to read them through, in the performance of one of his weekly duties Church? He
