The next was the choice OF clerk. Mr..

Complaints have been received OF the
conduct OF some rowdies who amuse
themselves by firing pistols, much to the
annoyance and terror ofpersons living in

Last Wednesday night about 10 O'Clock

Yesterday afternoon FIVE shots were

when crossing the Beaver dam going to
North Tamarack.
The persons who so foolishly amuse
themselves to the fright OF others had
better beware or they will surely have a
complaint lodged against them.
