Garrison threatens to lock up some of
the more pestiferous boys, if they
don't quit their didos. In all prob
ability it will prove disastrous lesson
to the youngsters some evening when
one of them will fall under the wheels
of the train. Parents can not be too
careful in impressing on the minds of
their boys. and girls as well, that the
depot is no play ground, especially
when trains are running in and out.
The august body of county COM
missioners of ST. Louis county will be

A cow whose inclinations prompted
her to meander down the track in
spite of the plucky protestations made
by little girl, came very nearly en-
tering cow heaven by the passenger
train route last evening. No doubt
the beast would have been soaring at
present if Joe Hales who possesses
remarkable sprinting abilities, had
not taken hundred yard dash up the
track, distancing Mayor Vail and
several others, and signalled the in
coming train, which came to stand
still not over two feet from the heels
of the meandering bovine. A sweep
stake race between Joe, the cow,
Mayor Vail and the other sprinters
would now be in order.
