The Aledo band rendered its second
concert of the season Thursday night
in Central park. The event drew a
large crowd to the park. Besides those
who were within the park there jwere
many autos crowded with listenefs, al
most entirely surrounding it. A pleas
ing feature of this years concerts is
that little time is taken up between
selections, thus keeping the crowd in
an attentive mood.

Police to Sheet Cnmuzzled Dogs
Davenport police have been ordered
to shoot on sight all dogs running
loose without muzZles in the next two
months. The city ordinance in this
regard states that dogs shall be muz-
zled during the months of June, July
and August, but since June was COM
paratively cool month, the order does
not become effective until today. In
larger cities this rule is rigidly en-
forced. During the hot months of the
year CANNES are subject to fits of
madness, and many deaths have been
caused in Davenport, as well as in
other places, by the bite of rabid dogs.
Chief Boettcher has asked the cooper
alton of the residents of the city in
enforcing this rule. It is not his in
tention to have a wholesale slaughter
of dogs in Davenport this year, but
for the welfare of the people the order
will be enforced A muzzle of some
character should be placed on every
dog In the city within the next few
days.

Cincala found all the chickens in her

she went out 10 feed them in the
morning and she blames Baxa for the
deed. The man went through a Sc
