The streets were very slippery at the

OF his wooden slippers and continued

warning 10 Boys.

On former seasons as soon as the Park
ice rink was closed, a number OF BOYS
have been in the habit of breaking open
the door and otherwise damaging the
property. The proprietor, although
knowing who the culprits were, refrained
from taking any action in the matter,
but as now his patience is worn out he
has determined to prosecute any one
found destroying his property, but as he
does not wish to make any trouble he
hopes that the youngsters will refrain
from doing any more mischief there but
il they do not they may rest assured they
will not be SO leniently treated as they
have been in the past.
While on this subject we may say that
any one defacing or tampering with the
mail collection boxes or their contents
or the locks is liable to penalty of
$1,000 fine or three years imprisonment,
and as Uncle Sam is not so easily fooled
with as people generally, the boys had
better take notice and not interfere with
the boxes 10 any way. They were not
put up Tor targets as some boys by their
actions appear to imagine.
