Much OF the unhappiness which
sometimes attends married life
owes its origin to a lack of the
small amenities and courtesies
which were SO assiduously prac-
ticed by both parties before mar
rlage. The feeling that it is not
worth while to keep them up is
auswerable for much OF the loss Of
respect, want OF chivalry, and in
difference, which gradually lead to
the decay of affection, the first re-
al tragedy in married life, In the
same way brothers and sisters rub
off the bloom of mutual regard by
neglect of those gentle and respect
ful manners with which they greet
outside friends. lnsensibly they
become careless, Indifferent and
rude, and black looks, hard words
and sharp answers poison the
home atmosphere where might
have been the alluring haven Of
peace and happiness had not the
respect for one-another's personal
ity thus heedlessly been broken
down.

L'Enfant's Tomb.

To the Editor Of The Star:
1t is with great interest have read OF
the proposed disposition of Maj. l. En-
fant's remains and must confess that
am very much surprised at the proposed
location, i. e.. the campus Of the Catho-
lie University, which is outside of the
city of Washington, which was the field
of his labor.
We. the citizens of this city. and. in fact
the citizens of the whole United States
owe great debt to Maj. L'Enfant, who
came to this country and helped us cast
the yoke of England's tyranny from our
necks. and it is only betting US to see
that monument be erected in one Of our
principal parks or one of the principal
reservations at the intersection of some
of the beautiful avenues for which we
have to thank this great and gifted engi-
neer.
1t will be recalled that the government,
never paid Maj. L'Enfant for his services
for designing the city of Washington
This sum. with interest, would erect the
most handsome monument in Washing
ton. and If Congress Is too niggardly to
appropriate a SUFFICIENT amount. then let
us take up popular subscription.
AS to L'Enfant's remains, the most
suitable place is their present resting
place. Green Hill. the home farm of the
Chillum Castle Manor tract comprising
about 10000 acres. and was the home OF
the Digges family. who were the WEALTH.
>st family in this section Of the country
and with whom l. Enfant lived as an hon
ored guest. and where he spent the last
years of his life and was buried with the
Digges family in their private burying
ground, which is now his present resting
place. JAMES F.. OCONNOR.

STEAMER RUNS DOWN LAUNCH
Lackawanna Skillfully Managed to
Avert Catastrophe.

Four men in small power launch had a
narrow escape from being run down in the
harbor yesterday evening by the ferry
steamer Lackawanna. Good management
on the part of the officers Of the steamer
averted catastrophe.
The ferry boat had just left her slip
here on the 1:30 pm. trip to Alexandra
and was moving down the harbor. Aboard
the launch were James Butler Of 1924 E
street southwest; A. F. Hall of 637 X
street southwest; w. Whitmore of 634
H street southwest and M. Varnum OF
I'd and H streets northwest. The Off
GERS of the steamer noticed a launch a
short distance away. AS TREY watched
they saw the steering ropes on the launch
part and she swung directly across the
path of the steamer less than hundred
feet off.
The steamer was moving freely. She was
at once stopped and backed. Headway
could not be killed entirely and the launch
went under her guards. AS it did SO two
men aboard the launch jumped overheard.
The other two occupants swung to the
guards of the steamer.
By this time she was at standstill. 1t
was found that the launch was not in
jured. The men again boarded 1t and
went up the harbor.

WANT MUzzLE Law REPEALED
CITIZENS COMMITTEE TO WATT
ON COMMISSIONERS.
Indignation Meeting in Southeast
Denounces Regulation, But Will
Not 90 Into Court.

The muzzle regulation for dogs received
walloping at the hands of about twenty
five citizens of Southeast Washington last
night, when meeting was held In the
half-f1nished store at 18th and c streets
southeast to protest against the action OF
the Commissioners and the injustice OF
the laws concerning dogs.
The meeting was presided over by T.
Edw. Clark, president of the Dog Own
ers' Association Several speeches were
heard, protesting against the muzzle law
and the system Of fines imposed upon own
ers for impounded animals.
A speaker, who said that owners are
heavily charged for their dogs. In being
obliged to pay a personal tax as well as a
license. was heartily applauded.
Court Proceedings Unpopular.
Thomas c. Bradley. attorney for Mr..
Clark and the association, gave as his
opinion that the law providing for the
muzzling Of dogs is unconstitutional. He
thought a test case should be made at
reasonably certain.
the muzzling regulation. Letters were
read from persons who could not attend.
but who are in sympathy with the OBJ
jects of the association. The letter from
Chris Cox Dawson was loudly applauded.
The letter follows:
In Sympathy With Motives.
Dear Sir: have read with a great
deal of interest the newspaper reports
of your meetings in regard to the recent
muzzle law, and desire to express my
sincere sympathy with the movement on
behalf of the poor dog, and in opposition
to this unjust and silly law forced upon
the citizens CO of Washington.
'It would be infinitely better for every
one If they would muzzle our mot from
choice, but thrust upon us) Commission
ers. 1t hardly seems possible that any
court would sustain the muzzle law, and
if you will pardon the suggestion. the
only way to settle the question Is to take
it into court.
ASIDE from the foolish and unwar-
ranted hydrophobia scarce, there is GER
tainly no justice in holding man up for
a fine after agreeing to protect his prop
erty from destruction by the payment OF
a dog license tax. One case In court
would settle it once for ALL I do not be-
lieve in hydrophobia. but 1 do believe in
the disastrous effects Of the combination
of fear and Imagination. Wishing you
success. I remain, very respectfully,
CHRIS cox DAWSON,
'141O H street northwest.
A letter from Mrs. H. P. Springer was
also read, which promised her hearty
sympathy with the objects of the meet
ing and aid by her and several lady
friends. who are ready to enlist in this
cause so dear to their hearts. Mrs.
Springer is the Woodworking vice presi-
dent of the old association.
In order that some definite action should
be taken, the following committee will In
terview the Commissioners and endeavor
to have the regulation repealed: George
C. Gertman, Winship Wheatley and
Thomas G.. Bradley.
A mass meeting of dog owners will be
held some time during the coming week
in the central part Of the city and all in
terested citizens will be asked to attend,
including those who were present at last
nights meeting.
