The Surprising Result.
Once this array OF preventable tor
ments was handed to Officer Pease. that
indefatigable pioneer. without fear or
favor-aiso without laws or special leg
islation, but the mere invocation OF the
police power included under the term
preservation Of the peace'-often at
the sacrifice OF twenty-four hours OF
sieep. succeeded in uprooting ana quash-
ing large part OF these abominations.
Water sprinklers OF nocturnal habits
were divested OF bells. Curves OF rail-
way tracks were creased every few
hours. instead OF twice a day. Bakers
were cautioned to warn all drivers and
other employees who talked or shouted
on the streets. Milkmen gladly applied
the same order to their employees.
Early morning newspaper carriers
were given even more stringent rules,
such as the use OF rubber heels. Lamp
lighters and FISH hucksters, as we'll AZ
other human owls laughingly cooper
ated. Most OF them considered II q Joke
or a fad unless illness struck their own
families, yet Officer Pease intimidated
them into proper behavior.
Growing roostors were located and ST.
fenced. Their owners for the most part
got nd of them. Back fences upon
which meowing cats practiced their ca
denzas were watched and owners Of the
guilty oats discovered. Deliverers OF
bread. who banged down bread boxea
were stopped.
In fine. newsboys. roller skaters, street
car motormen. taxi drivers, ragmen, ash
and garbage cart drivers, and hundreds
OF cats and roosters were made TO mend
their hideous ways by sentences OF
death 10 the latter and threats OF Spst
employment to the former. Railway Of
itciais, Government departments. and
employees, of course, lent strong coun-
tenance 10 this newest OF city health
campaigns. And the result In quick re-
cover1es from sickness in many cases
has more than repaid the labor and
trouble.
