BAD DOORS.

People living in the extreme south
western section of the city are annoyed
day and night by disagreeable smell
which seems to come from the adjoining
Fairfax county, and which resembles
that of the decsyiug body Of dead
animal. II am right, 1t is the police
mans duty to break up sill nuisances on
his beat. This smell is a nuisance and
should be broken up. Instead OF arrest
ing small boys for carrying on nui'ances
which do no harm to the boy or anyone
else, or playing baby catcher as some
frequently do, It is my opinion that they
should pay more attention to the nuis-
ances which exists in and about Alexsn-
dris, aud which endaDger the lives OF
human beings. X
