the boys were on a spree and
only desired to frighten the
women, be that as it may, the

Last week the Bouo caution-
ed the boys sbont the narelees
manner in which they are in the
habit of handling fireworks.
Saturday evening by their care
lessness, the plank sidewalk in
front of the bouse lately occopi-
ed by Gresweil A Williams, was
set on fire. It was discovered by
deputy sheriff Herrou in time to
be extinguished before dam-
age was done. Had the fire not
been discovered as it was, the
chances are alt the north aide
of Gonrt Square would have
been destroyed. Be careful,
boys.
