those engaged in business who block the
sidewalks, especially those who have dis
play cases extending twenty inches be-

As result, Joseph Hayman and Sam

located on Royal between King and Cam
eron streets, were cited into court today
at the instance Of Policeman Nicholson,

play cases extending beyond the building
line in front of their establishments. Ac-
cording to the testimony of Policeman
Nicholson, the display case of Mr.. Hay
man was sixty-eight inches beyond the
line. The latter. however. did not think
the distance great.
Justice Cation said he had no desire to
impose fine in either case, inasmuch
as both men agreed to move their cases
back farther. in compliance with the law
The cases were accordingly dropped. The
complaint had been made by q neighbor
living the square in question.

Three Election Crooks Jailed.

Jail sentences, with the addition OF
fines in each case, were imposed upon
three election officials convicted Of
making fraudulent returns at the pri-
maries in Baltimore, Nd, in August Of
last year
John Wagner was sentenced to two
years and six months and fined $500
Albert A. Cochran, two years and
$500 fine
Reuben D. Smith, one year and $500.
All three were election judges.
In imposing sentence Judge Elliott
censured the prisoners for the crime
they had committed against the vot-
ers, and denounced the jury before
whom they had been tried for not
finding them guilty Of wilful neglect
and connivance, which would have
permitted him to send them to the
penitentiary for long periods.
Some $50 other election officials,
Republicans and Democrats, are un-
der indictment for alleged frauds at
the same primary. They are charged
with making false returns of the re-
suits of the primary.

Democrats Save $1,000, COO.

The appropriations made by this ses-
sion OF congress for the expenses of
the government this year amounted to
S1,O19,62s,143.6s, according to a state.
ment made to the senate by Senator
Warren, chairman of the appropria-
tions committee.
The total is less than that of last
year by S7O46,7SS, and is $2l,000,OO0
less than the estimates.
Senator Warren expressed the belief
that the reduction of appropriations
would result in heavy deficits at the
end of the year, or at least force con-
gress to make additional apprOpria-
tions at next winters session.
Senator Overman, a Democratic
member OF the appropriations commit
tee, declared the adjOurning congress
had made a saving in appropriations.
I'VE have saved the taxpayers Of
the country $7.OO0,OOO this year." he
said, "and that saving has been made
despite an increase of some $37,00l,-
600 in the expenditures for pensions,
rivers and harbors and for the post
office department"

DOG Gives Birth to Kittens.

Ensconced in an old soap box in
a little down town home in Philadel-
phia, and carefully nursed and being
watched over by an anxious young
mother are living refutations of the
science OF the ages-a cOnfounding of
students of natural history.
Science always has pooh-poohed the
possibility OF the cross-breeding of
genera. There have been many cases
cited, but none authenticated, of ami
mails of different genera produc-
ing young. 1t has remained for a dog
belonging to Jacob Goldstein, 1885
South Tenth street. to give the laugh
10 science by mothering four hybrid
animals which have many of the most
familiar earmaTks of kittens.
Curious persons who called at the
house to see the little creatures found
that one had died, but that the other
three and the mother were doing
nicely, thank you"
"TOotsy,' the young mother, is in
ordinately proud and jealous of her
first family She is a medium sized
yellow dog of no distinct breed The
animals are about as large as small
rats. Their bodies are uniformly like
kittens, but their tails are decidedly
akin to Tootseys own. The faces Of
three are distinctly kittenish; the
dead one more resembles a dog IN
the face But all four have the four
toed paw of a dog, with the needle
like claws Of a cat and the cats power
to protrude and with draw them.
Add to all this the fact that they
have a cats ears and a cats fur and
wonder of wonders-that they
meow" m1searbly like any young
back-fence yowler, and the visitor can
onlv stare in bewilderment.
