CITY MARSHAL'S LONG SHOT
'.Sut" Quarterman. Like Achilles,
Was Vulnerable i'm His Heel

City Marshal Brigance has had
complaint made to him several times
Of late Of shooting of firearms by
persons unknown along the street
between Judge Warmers residence
and the S. A. L. track to the west.
Last evening the marshal was up
that way on the lookout for the
shootis1s and ran into them just as
they fired a fusilade One revolver
was fired five times and another two
times by two of the three men in the
party. Marshal Brigance called to
them to halt and instead they ran.
The marshal fired at them and
struck one man in the heel He fell
and rolling over and over in the
street, yelled that he was shot and
wanted a doctor The mans cries
were horrible to hear. He proved to
be Richard Quarterman, called
SUIT" He said he did not do any
shooting and the marshal found no
weapon on him, so is inclined to
think he did not. '.Sut'' said he
would never have run if he had
known it was Mr. ,Brigance.
This will probably stop the shoot
ing and will be a lesson to others.
The police force is all about, here,
there and yonder, watching for
speeders, shooters and any other sus-
piciouS characters and yiolaters of
the law

the interests of the city. especially
the new Improvements which are TO
be made in the near future. In tell
ing of the new lot, bought recently
by the city. Mr. Hunter dweIt ON the
economy in having place to keep
all important papers together, spoke
of schedule to be inaugurated this
week in the sanitary department to
establish regular routine for re-
moving garbage, and a number of
other improvements that are soon to
be put into effect.
Civic Gardening" an article
treating on Baltimore and its i'm
provements, was read by Mrs T. E.
Bridges, chairman of the out door
art committee. The gist of the pa
per gave good suggestions that can
be used to advantage by those who
are trying to create civic pride in
a clean "city Housekeeping, for
what has been done in Baltimore
can be done here on a smaller scale.
A truly civic pride in the hearts of
the citizens means the solving of
street cleaning for there will then be
no rubbish, tin cans and unsightly
junk to remove.
Mrs. Fl. c. Groves expressed the
sentiment of the club when she read
an article on expectorating. There
is law prohibiting it but it is not
enforced, consequently the evil habit
is cultivated by low, degrading peo-
pie who care not for the health of
their fellow townsmen.
The concluding number was two
pretty vocal solos, Hindoo Song" by
lBemburg. and Nevin's Mighty Lake
Rose" exauisitely sung by Mrs.
Leon Fishel, accompanied on the
piano by Miss Gertie Peyser.
At the next meeting regular bust
ness will be attended to after which
the educational committee will give
short program.
A pleasant social half-hour was
spent with Mrs. Lester Warner and
Mrs. VI. G. Kramer, after adjourn
ment. Ice tea and delicious cake
was served.

coNGEsTED SPOTS A MENACE
Los Angeles Is Pacing Problem Tha, Ia Common to Most Growing
 American Cities.

Every city has housing problem which is in some respect peculiar and characteristic. In Los Angeles this is to be found in prevalent type of house courts" writes William H. Matthews in the Survey. The city ordinance, providing for their regula- tion, defines such court as follows:
 "A parcel or area Of land on which are grouped three orsmore habitAtions used or designed to be used for oc- cupancy by families and upon which parcel or area the vacant or unoc- cupied portion thereof surrounding or abutting on said habitations is used or intended to be used in common by the inhabitants thereof"
 In places thus described a consid- erable part of the labor population of Los Angeles lives. There are record ed in the office of the city's housing commission today some 630 such courts Within them are roughly 3.7OO habitations, housing 10000 or more people, -Mexicans, Russians, Italians. Slavonians, Austrians, Chinese. Japan csc and scattering of some twenty other nationalities.
 The dwellings in these courts pre- sent a great variety in general style and method of building. There are the old adobe houses, sometimes re- modelled and in fair condition, thougl more often with ceilings, walls and floors in crumbling, dilapidated state. yet still yielding goodly rent to their owners. Some courts are cluttered with wooden shacks of every size and kind, big shedlike structures that house many people. and again mere boxes and shanties in which one fam fly Is crowded.
 Some seven years ago Jacob Riis jared the complacency of the com munity by stating that one district possessed congested and unwholesome housing conditions quite as bad. though not so extensive as any city in the land. Through the efforts of the Municipal league and the College Settlement as soctation a housing commission was appointed to better housing co7di- lions.
 Yet in spite of the fact that tre housing commission has succeeded l. having demolished many of the more unatghtly of these courts, one may stiu walk many blocks in some parts ,of the city and see little else. And this, not on the outskirts but within ' shom distance of the city's public buildings. There, too. may be found newly constructed courts. conforming to the new housing laws. more esthet- ic tin appearance than were the old onGs, yet with the same congestion of people and even less of privacy of family life.

The keeper of the Washington park zoo in Milwaukee finds that it is not well for him to leave the baby ami mals, of which there are always few on hands. When he leaves the young leopards or other infants they are like ly to sulk and make themselves i'll, and as he is very fond of all of them he takes very few vacations, and only when there are no young animals that particularly need his care
