Dogs at Large.

To the Editor Of The Star:
Passing through Franklin Park several
days ago my attention was attracted to
the unusually proportion of collarless and
tagless dogs at large In group Of
four different species three were without
tags and collars. This may be partly due
to the fact that on the first OF July an
other license year began and many per-
sons rather than pay the fee have turned
their dogs loose to roam through the
streets. The natural result is that We
have an unusually large number of dogs
running about at season of the year
when dogs are most likely to go mad
straint aggravates their condition. Can
the Commissioners be persuaded to
change the season of license and turn
these undesirables on the streets at a
time when the weather Is cold and chill
dren housed? In my own neighborhood
one rarely sees collar on a dog. Why
again need the owners of dogs have thirty
or sixty days grace in which to pay their
licenses? Other taxes and licenses have
TO be paid by certain date or trouble en-
sues for the party who fails in this re-
Spect. The time to impound dogs is be-
fore the extreme heat comes around, and
only a few persons will complain of the
activity Of the poundmaster, while many
will voice pleasure at the prospect of
being able to venture with their fami-
lies out side their own property without
running risk of being bitten by dog
whose owner has no further use for him.
1T is enough to have to stand those who
in violation of law are tagged, but are at
large without leash.

NORWEGIAN STEAMER COMING.
Cargo of Plaster to Be Brought by
Vitalia to Alexandria.

Vessels flying the flags of foreign coun-
tries are now becoming frequent visitors
to the Potomac. About month ago the
steamship Paul Paix, flying the British
flag. discharged cargo Of paving block
here, and within the next few days Nor
wegian steamer will arrive at Alexan-
dria. This vessel is the steamship Vitalia
and she has aboard a cargo of several
thousand tons of plaster rock from Caeve-
RE. n. s.. consigned to the Alexandria
Chemical Company and designed for use
in the manufacture of fertilizer. The YES
sci is reported to have left her loading
point Tuesday and. according to advices
received from Capt. John Barclay, the
pilot who will bring her up Chesapeake
bay and the Potomac river, she will reach
the capes early tomorrow morning, and
should arrive at Alexandria tomorrow
night. Ten years ago importation of pas-
ter from Nova Scotia to Alexandria was
a regular thing, but for several years
past all the plaster used at the Alexan-
dria fertilizer works has been brought
there by rail. The Vitalia will probably
remain a week at Alexandria, unloading.
