ROWDYLSM IN ST. PAUL.

The st. Paul Pioneer-Pr in speak
ing Of the services at Christ's Church,
on Sunday evening last, says:
AT least six young rowdies, deliber-
ately left the CHURCH last Sunday eve
ming while the service was being read,
and returned us the exercises were
closing. They not only disturbed the
congregation by their entrances and ex-
it's, but behaved themselves so improp-
erly while in church as to make them
selves conspicuous. These parties are
all known to the rector and others, and
unless they desist from such perform
ances, their names will be given, a
course which is not now adopted out of
regard for their parents, who would be
much mortified if they knew Of their
actions.
Pshaw now, why should the Pioneer
Press notice such things? Why not
hush it up and say nothing about it?
Of course, it's naughty" to behave 50,
but then tits NICE" Why can't
young people" have their fun of a
Sunday evening without being called
''rowdies?' And then to think that
the Pioneer-Press should threaten to
publish their names

The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1875-06-25

A gentleman who always has his eyes
open, travels good deal in this part of
Minnesota, noted for his christian and
moral character, and a careful observer
of the moral and intellectual health of
communities, who spent a day or two
III town recently, remarked while here,
that Window, with her two saloons
and all the degenerating influences i'm
parted by them, presented a better NOR
al and intellectual appearance than
our sister village of WortLington, with
all her Wanted pride and ostentation.
Window Reporter.
Now, Huntington. we will agree to
submit the matter to the arbitration of
three disinterested persons, and if they
do not say that we have the best church,
Is, the best Sabbath Schools, the
best public schools, the best con-
certs, the best social entertain
ments, the biggest Grand Army Post,
the prettiest girls, the sauciest children,
the most minor arrivals, and the most
baby carriages of any place within a
radius of fifty miles, then we will give
up the conundrum. That we have
some liquor drinking, some rowdyism,
some very bad behavior of young peo-
Eple, some vulgarity and some mean peo-
pie is not denied, but with good influen-
.ces thrown around them and the AD-
VANCE to prod them, they are compar-
atively harmless, and Worthington
must long remain a model community.
