. I RE KIIVGSTON BRIDGE l

Sin-In the Guardian of April 30th, there appeared a, somewhat lengthy] letter signed West River Tax Payer |sking for certain information regard- ing the amount of $180.76 that was spent to purchase lumber and cem- qlt for the Kingston bridge. I took his letter as a joke at first but hav- Iig occasion to visit a. neighbour he showed me l. blue book and in the public accounts I was amazed to read fiom Appendix 7. page 141 “Kings- kfin - bridge, cement and lumber, 1160378.”

My object in replying to “Tax- payer" is this, that the information asked for is just arid- proper and the necessary explanation should be from none other than the road mas- ter snd the road superintendent and this should be attended to by our two representatives. Hon. Mr. LePage, ltixiister without portfolio, and his. colleague Mr. Angus MacPhee, ML. A., who are duty bound to attend to

lplainfs over the manner in which a ' police ofilcer attempted t-o despnlfth a dog in front of the City Building last Friday. The animal, mortally} wounded from two shots fired at close i range and infuriated with pain, broke

lfrom its leash and dashed madly

away, the officer, gun in hand, giving , chase. It is coniended that a spec- tacle of this kind on a public street is revolting and unnecessary, andi that the bunglingf manner in which! ‘the animal was despiitchcd should be ‘ fnvesigaied by the Society for the‘ Prevent-ion of Cruelty to Animals, In‘ justice to the police ofiicer it may be l said that he had been ordered by the’ Magistrate to despatch the dog.

against which complaints had been‘. made, and that he was taking it; .from its home to the Pclicn Station‘ with the intention bi having it des-, patched as quickly and mercifully as 5

possible. As he approahed the cityl building with the dog on leash. thel animal got unmanageable and he, thought it necessary to shoot it at, bnee. He failed m kill it on the} spot, and the dog made a tcmporaryi escape. Chief of Police Bfrtwhistle,‘ assured The Guardian that every; measure will be taken i9 avoid a. re-; petition of such an unfortunate inci- I dent. In future, when it is neccssaryi to despatch vicious animals, n. syringe or‘ chloroform sponge will be used. In this case, the animal was being taken to the Police Station for the sole pur- pose of avoiding s disagreeable scene on the street, and it was the frantic efforts of the dog to break away that caused the officer to shoot in the first place.

CHILD MARRIAGE BILL HIT

Lord Buclrministers bill to make 10 the minimum age for marriage has aroused such discussion in England. According to Sir Archibald Bodkin. Public Prosecutor, under the law pro- vided by the bill, should it be re- vealed after marriage that a bride was a day under l6. the husband would» be liable to prosecution for misdeamnor. This would especial- ly affect foreign girls, many of them Jeweasess fromPolsnd, who advance their ages to get married.

DRAGON TOO FAT, "SLIMMED"

_ Decreasing the waist line of a sev- en-foot Komodo dragon has been the task of keepers of the London Zoo recently. It had been eating too many eggs presented by visitors and put on foo much flesh. 1t has to be given dailywaliis about the reptile house, and has been put on "diet" of only two ruis a week. And one of the rats s large lvhite, is filled with castor oil before be!“ offered to the dragon. The treatment is effective but not relished by the descendant of fairy- tale monsters.
