Summary ..shooting 01 dogs on the streets of Baker is sua pended, temporarily at least . , Tho rifle which the city had furnished the dog catcher, H. A. Keogh, has been taken away from him as the result of complaints which have been com ing in of reckless handling of fire arms. Since December 4, when Keogh shot through the window of a garage' and started! no little excitement, there have- Ibeeni other complaints and. few days aero, another reoort of shot fired into the pavement, the but- 1 1 let bouncing through the cover of an automobile in which there 'Were per sons at the 'time. Dogs have been shot at from long range and wounded and the result was that Commission er Finley decided to retire the little .22 calibre rifle for the present. The ordinance in respect to requiring tJogs muzzled, " however, has " not been changed. Hereafter the poundimaster will take the dog3 to the pound and Kill them as soon as he gets them there.
