GRAND RUSH TO GET
TAGS FOR THE DOGS
Dogs Captured Are Not
Held for Redemption
Under New Law.

At noon today Chief Harr and mis-
assistants had picked up a total of
thirteen stray dogs. The campaign
began on Saturday when three dogs
were picked up by Policeman Wood
ward, and before noon today the off
GERS had succeeded in catching three
more. making thirteen In all.
The effect Of the campaign Is real
lied by the overflow of applications
handed in at the police station yes
terday and today for dog tags.
Thus far the policemen have been
centering the large part Of their ef-
forts on the East Side Just as soon
as the East Side is cleared the Often
sive will become effective in other
parts of the city.
Chief Harr states that there is q
general Misunderstanding as to the
time of killing the dogs. Yesterday
a young boy came to the police sta
ton with his two dollars with which
to buy a tag for cog that had been
picked up on Saturday, and 1t had
been killed. Under the old law the
city was supposed to hold the dog one
week before killing It, but the new
law entities the city authorities to
put them to death just as soon as
they are captured.

HIS TALE TOO THIN
He DREW 5 MONTHS
With a Neat Little Fine of
Hundred Dollars On
the Side.

Claiming that an Italian bootleggei
had made him "the goat" and that he
was innocent of any wilful violation
of the prohibitory law since he was
ignorant Of the real contents Of the
luggage he was carrying, William
Childs appeared before Justice w. w.
Conway this morning and pulled
down one of the heaviest sentences
that the Justice has yet handed out
William Childs is from Clarksburg
and yesterday he was returning home
from points in Ohio when, so his
story goes, as he was leaving Wheel
ing an Italian who had known him in
Clarksburg approached him and ask
ed him to take a suitcase to Clarks'
burg for him, stating that tht case
contained plasterers tools.
Wishing to be accommodating
Childs took the luggage and was
much surprised tc find when 1t was
opened by officers here that 1t con-
tanned thirteen quarts OF whiskey.
The officers and the Justice, how
ever, would be convinced that Chllds
was so unSophisticated as to be dop'
ed in this way. One of the officers
stated In fact that he knew person
ally tina: Childs was too familiar with
the weight Of whiskey in suitcase
to ever confuse It with plasterlng
tools and after considering the evil
dence, Justice Conway imposed a
fine of $500 and a jail sentence OF
three months.
