There is no reason why boys
or girls should pass their evenings
till 8 o'clock or later on the streets.
Any of them who are in good
health can get ample exercise and
sport during the day, with possibly
an hour Of recreation after supper.
The appetite for play in lads and
misses, for amusement in young
men aud women, may easily be-
come depraved one and needs as
careful attention as any other ap-
petite or propensity. 1t is not
viciousness that in the first place
leads the boys to go with the gang
for evening pastimes, but in nine
ty-nine cases out of hundred the
gang is school of small or large
vices, generally of both. The best
and smallest boy can soon become
permeated in spirit and the quiet
and respectable home circle seems
to him tame and insipid, just as
healthy drinks become unsatisfac-
tory to one who has acquired q
taste for stimulants. There is a
tremendous responsibility resting
on parents in this matter. Let the
boys and girls have their sport but
be sure to know what it is and
have absolute direction as to the
company and the hour. 1t may
require little firmness and care
for the time, but it is better than
henrt-aches and self reDroach es
hereafter. Several Minnesota
towns are acting upon ordinances
requiring the police to arrest all
boys and girls seen on the street
after 9 p. M, unless in company of
adults or able to give good reason
for their presence. It would be a
healthy regulation for any town
and would go far toward prevent
ing the development of hoodlum
element, with its disturbing and
corrupting infuences.-Ex.

WE HAVE IT!
A Generous Flow of Arte-
sian Water.
STRUCK AT 752 FEET
Our Citizens and Contractor Mcyay
Jubilant. Ford now Surely
Gin the SMIm'' Of ProspcritY.

1
IL possible an increasing interest
has been taken in the artesian
well drilling for the past week. MIR.
McVay's splendid machinery has been
surrounded by crowds Of citizens anxious
to note the progress OF the well and full
OF questions rs to developments and the
outlook for flowing well. As will be
seen by the log in another column lis
feet have been drilled since our last issue,
about half of which has been drilled
through shale, the balance through varie-
gated Dakota sandstone carrying wat or.
Yesterday the water stood over 300 feet
deep in the well, making drilling much
more slow than heretofore. At the pres
ent writing Mr.. McVay is hopeful OF
shrinking flowing well at anytime.
Since the above was in type the much
desired water has been found. Yesterday
afternoon the water rose rapidly in the
well and at S:15 last evening flowed over
The top Of the casing. Shouts of joy from
those at the well brought in the residents
OF the suburbs, and many jugs and buck
cts of water were taken to homes last
evening. This morning the water cleared
up and seems to be the finest of pure
water without any mineral elements.
This morning the drill is being made
heavier and the machinery adjusted for
drilling through the great depth of water.
The drilling will be continued until the
water-bearing capacity Of the sandstone
is full tested.
