MIR. FIXIT'
Right of Thirsty Dog to
Drink Defended

Let Mr.. Eixit present your case to city
fTs a. the ety - half Wrse hP as Tbe
Times.
The time-honored right of thirsty
dog to get a drink was defended in
a letter that has come to Mr.. Fixit.
/ DEAR MIR. SMITH: I would like
to know If dogs are allowed to drink
in the lower part of the drinking
fountain In University Park. A
thirsty dog started to drink there
when the caretaker chased him
away.
Don't you think 1t is better to al
low dog to have a drink than to
go mad and suffer from want OF a
drink? GUNSTALL SMITH.
Mr.. Fixit agrees with you and
SO does Recreation Director Jesse
G. Mcclure. However, the dog
had probably committed the offense
of digging In the flower beds
there.
Mr. F1xit likes dogs. but hereby
announces he will pursue no more
complaints concerning neighborhood
quarrels over dogs. The truth is
diff to find. and he has too much
regard for his own skin. This no.
tice has 10 references to the above
letter, but applies to all others re-
ceived or in contemplation. The ad-
vice to all is to obtain ar affidavit
and swear out a complaint against
persons owning dogs violating the
law.
DEAR MIR. FTxIT: Will you
please have SONS gravel put in the
holes on Tacoma Ave. between
Washington and New York Sts.7

Your request will be granted

BORLAND LAW LOST
FOR THIS SESSION
Senator King Blocks Action
on Measure Designed to
Aid Realty Owner.

The amendment to the Borland law
which would have given local property
| owners partial relief from the bur
den of paying assessments for street
paving In front of their homes. was
practically lost for this session when
Senator King of Utah objected to its
consideration in the Senate. 1t had al
ready passed the House. 1t would
have continued the assessment law
for new pavement, but provided that
after property owner had once
been assessed for an original street
he would not be required to pay for
reSurfacing it.
Senator Oscar Underwood, Democrat
OF Alabama, made an unsuccessful
plea for the passage of the bill. He
pointed out that 1t is proper to assess
the taxpayers for the first paving be-
cause that improves the value of his
property. He declared, however, that
1t is an injustice to assess the owner
of home for repairing the street in
front of his house after it has been
worn out and broken up by the wheels
of automobiles from every part of
the city. The Senator declared that
the automobile of the person paying
the assessment does little or no dam.
age to the original pavement, but that
the constant flow of machines is VIVA
wears out the street.
The bill to set up a separate board
for the licensing of chiropractors in
Washington also was sidetracked for
this session on objection Of Senator
King. The Senator said that he would
not have objected If the chiropractors
were to be licensed by the one gener-
al medical board, but that he was op-
posed to separate board for chiro-
practors.

RAIL MAN WILL SUE
IN INSANITY PILOT"
J. E. Sheean Charges Effort
to Commit Him to Asylum
in New Jersey.

BY the Associated Press.
ATLANTIC CITY. n. J.. July g.
Counsel for James L. Sheean OF
Evanston, ILL.,, former vice president
and general counsel of the Chicago
and Northwestern Railway Co. who
yesterday escaped confinement in an
insane asylum by haheas corpus pro-
ceedings, declares he will bring suit
against Sheean's father-in-law and
two physicians who obtained his COM
, mitment.
The lunacy proceedings were
brought in Toms River by George w.
Holman, Sheean's father-in-law, who
asserted the attorney refused to tell
him where Mrs. Sheean and her two
children We're. The papers were
signed by Drs. Robert Beurman of
Lakewood and Henry II. Davis of
Toms River.
Sheean was taken into custody in
Toms River last night and held in the
county Jail on a lunaCy commitment
issued by Judge W. S. Slaughter.
Hearing on habeas corpus proceed
ings brought here by his counsel,
Howard Ewart of Toms River re-
suited in his release, vice Chancellor
Ingersoll ruling that the commitment
was illegal and void in that the ply
sicians had based their opinion on
hearsay evidence instead of per-
sonal inspection of Sheean.
Sheean could not be reached and
his counsel declined to comment on
the case other than to say that
the events leading up to the COM
mitment would be revealed in court
action his client would bring against
Holman and the physicians.
Mr. and Mrs. Sheean and their two
children came East so that Sheean
could attend a conference of Northern
Pacific officials in New York. They
stopped at the Ocean House, con-
Quoted by Holman in Toms River.
Two weeks ago Mrs, Sheean and the
children departed-where. 1t could
not be ascertained.
Holman served in the New Jersey
Assembly in 1902.
