Hard on the Horses.
To the Editor of The Star

To the Editor of The Star:
It seems most unfortunate. not cruel.
in the heated term, that the street rail-
road company should pile their stone
around the drinking fountain for horses
at H street near 9th street northwest,
thus depriving the animals Of their water.
This has been the condition OF anairs
for over a week, and Is likely to be 80 for
some time to come. And few drivers have
consideration enough for the poor beasts
to drive a few squares farther to another
fountain. C, S. HORNER.

OVER POWERS PROPERTY

A settlement of taxes on the old
Staten Island Terra Gotta & Lumber
Company property on the Spa Spring
road near Maurer is promised for
Friday night. The subject was to
have come up for final disposal at q
meeting of the Board of Aldermen
called for that purpose last night,
but Joseph E. Stricken, representing
interests which are desirous of de-
veloping the land as a factory site,
announced beforehand that he was
not prepared at this time to close
negotiations. He stated that the
matter would probably come to q
close Friday night, at which time
the Board of Aldermen will meet to
consider It,
1t appears that the aldermen are
prepared to accept $17,50O as the
city's equity in the property should
Mr.. Stricker's clients agree. In ar
irving at this figure the city fathers
have deducted taxes and interest on
personal property since the time of
destruction of the buildings by fire.
Mr.. Stricken recently offered
$1,000 to the city in settlement of
the taxes. He will appear before the
aldermen Friday night, at which
time the terms of settlement will be
argued. At this time Mr.. Stricken
will probably be in position to dis
cuss details as to operation, size Of
the proposed factory, etc.

Interesting Meeting Of

An adjourned meeting of the Board
of Health will be held tonight in city
hall and steps taken to appoint an Of
fee man, who will have complete charge
of the Health Department s office in
the municipal building. At the regu-
lar meeting last week President JUS
tus Kaletseh and Commissioner George
Wusteeld endeavored to have Andrew
McCabe, Jr., of Prospect street, ap-
pointed, but the proposition fell
through.
1t is understood the same appoint
ment will be asked tonight, although
the commissioners are refraining from
stating their attitude on the question.
Commissioners Leo Schwartz and P.
N. Kennedy were the other members
present last week and expressed ignor-
ance of the qualifications of the nomi-
nee, in fact stated they were not ac-
quainted with the man.
So far as could be learned to-day
President Kaletsch has not taken any
steps to familiarize the objecting com
missioners with the ability of his pro-
tege or made any other move to make
the selection unanimous.
Johan Jensen has been summoned to
appear before the board tonight and
answer to alleged violations of the
health code. If he does not appear this
evening, drastic action will be taken
against him.

SATURDAY DANCES
MUST BE STOPPED

Free Saturday night dances in the
rear of saloons in this city are again in
evidence and the police are going to
ions their attention has been called to
music and dancing in the rear Of sa-
looms on Saturday nights. Last Sat
urday night a complaint was lodged
against George Miszewski for having
music in the rear Of his place at 10
Cleveland avenue. The police stopped
it, as they have done in other cases
and the saloon proprietors have, in each
case, been warned against continuing
the practice.
1t has come to the attention Of Chief
of Police Burke that dances are run at
intervals in halls back of saloons He
intends to hold the saloon keepers to the
letter Of the law in that respect and
if violations continue the offenders can
expect speedy prosecution.
The Board of Excise Commissioners
preceding the present one practically
made it a crime to conduct free Satur-
day night dances where children could
congregate and be demoralized. It re-
fused to grant licenses to men who
conducted Saturday night dances and
as result dance halls in the rear of
saloons practically went out of business,
excepting for holding wedding and pri-
vate parties.
The present excise board has held sa-
loon keepers to this provision and it
seems that only lately that violations
have commenced to roll in. Where such
dances continue the police viii gather
evidence for rigid prosecution, as they
are deemed attractions of the lowest
sort and unfit for young girls and chill
dren, such as patronize them.
