Forest Hill Cemetery, inst outside the

abate the outrage, but ms he was alone,
and the gaug only came occasionally, he
was unable to catch them. At first they
contented themselves with merely litter
in. up the grounds with peanut shells,
paper and playing cards. Later they be-
came bolder and the iron acttees and
chairs were carried to some point and
piled up. Occasionally when ready to
leave they fired volley from their re.
volvers. One night last week their
shameful conduct reached its height.
Monuments were defaced and scandalous
matter written on them. The sod was
removed from several graves aud whisky
bottles stuck in them. Nameless indig-
mites were inflicted on other graves and
other shocking vandalism committed +;
