"Remember dope," said to Hawkins, "That may be, but all I ever took never affected me the way jt did this last time." Early last evening, to be exaet, 7 o'clock, Hawkins was very drunk. As he reached Smith street, which is in the upper end of the elty, he made for the road, and taking off his coat offered to fight all comers. The weather being too warm for fighting, none of the residents took up his offer, but instead a call was sent to the police station. Constable Daniel MeCarey responded, and Haw- kins was given a ride in a taxi to the police station. The Magistrate was willing to give him a chance, but that all drink is the Acting Magistrate ahle to go to work till Friday morn- ng. "You go to work this afternoon or you won't get a chance," sald, Mayor Richardson.e Hawkins could see that the Mayor meant every word he said, so he sald as soon as he had something to eat| he would hike off to his job. He will have to pay for the taxi ride he had to the lock-up. Orton Fuller was summoned on a charge of being under the influence of liquor when on the 'forbidden list," and Inspector McCammon and C.

However if he will not come by invi-| | tation, force will be used to get him. | { He will be arrested for disobeying | the summons. It does not pay to] ignore the law.

The death of Allan Robinson of the Bell Tele- phone Company's staff, as the result of being bitten on the arm last Fri- day night while trying to stop a dog fight on King street west, has rousad the people to demand that the City Council put into effect a by-law thai will keep dogs off the streets, Other cities like Ottawa have solved the dog nuisance question, which the Whig on many occasions has brought forcibly to the attention of the city fathers, but up to the present tinie Kingston has no effective dog by-law. . H.

He applied to the civ- ic authorities for permission to car- ry a revolver for protection while on his machine, but was told it could not be given. "I told them that I supposed 1 would have to wait until a dog tore my leg before I could do anything," said Mr, Powell, "and I was given to understand that I would have to do that. = Butyl decided that I would not, and I go about on my motor cycle fully prepared for any dog that comes snapping at me, I think it a erying shame that dogs are allowed to run at large as they are in Kings- ton.' DEAN GOING OVERSEAS, Major Starr Left Thursday for Hali- fax Whence He Will Sail. Major the Very Reverend Dean Starr received a telegram Wednes- | day night from the Militia Depart- instructing him to report for Thursday | ment, overseas duty,.and left | noon for Halifax, from'where he will sail for England, Major Starr, who for a long time has been desirous of getting to the front, has importuned the Militia De- | partment time and again to be al-| [lowed to go, and, finally, his request | was granted. So anxious was he to | get to the fir'ng line that he gffered | his services free. He has no idea | yet of what particular duties he will be asked to perform, Prof. Duckworth, of Trinity Col- { lege, Toronto, will supply the Dean's | work in St, George's during his ab- sence. 1 Only One Walk Laid. So far this yeer there has been only one concreté walk laid in Kings- ton, and this is the one on Ontario street between Johnson and Wil- jam streets, which, was rendered | necessary by the construction of a re- | taining wall. Probably not since { Kingston became a city have there been so few new sidewalks laid in any. year as in 1916. However the city is well covered and no one is suffering. Pte.
