loon keepers for violating the Sunday
law Each came up and paid $25 and
costs, amounting to $29 in all, making
the total 1902, which is the largest
amount turned into the city Golfers for
some time, and if this record is kept up
during the month the amount of fines
will be quite large.

Small Fire.

Last evening about o'clock the fire
department was called to the Laughlin
tin mill, where a number of oil bar
rels that had been thrown near the
railroad switch caught fire. The de-
partment responded promptly and
soon extinguished the blaze. On the
railroad track were several box cars
that were slightly scorched, and would
soon have been afire had not the fire
department responded SO promptly.

mas que una c0sa: que aquell0s jeteS

imaginarios para evitar la guerra.
Jierto es que esos jefes daban cOnsej0s
al Presidente Stein, del Estado Libre
de Orange; pero eran consoles inspi
radios en- la mas sana provision y en- la
mas rudimentaria prudenoia.
