Last Friday night nine boys from
the east side of town were up on Wash
ington street seeing the sights. T. A.
Clarke had just completed a cement
sidewalk and the boys tested the walk
in various places with their heels. Mr..
Clarke says that injury was unquestion-
ably intentional as only heel marks were
in evidence, and they were mostly made
through canvas and other protection he
had over the walks. Mr.. Clarke had
warrants issued for arrest of the boys,
but same were not served, but merely
wished to bring the matter forcibly. to
the attention of the parents that the
boys might be punished. Judge Smith,
however, had the boys appear before
him and gave them a little fatherly ad-
vice which would be we'll for boys to
heed. Such offenses are very serious
and in the future they may have to deal
with some one who will not be as lenient
as Mr.. Clarke has been.

city of Edgerton, G. O. Shannon by his
attorney, L. e. Gettle, made application
to the circuit court for leave to intervene
and be permitted to defend the suit.
Judge Dunwiddie decided on the 28th
of October that no taxpayer Of the city
of Edgerton had sufficient interest in the
subject matter in controversy to be per-
mitted to answer and defend the same.
The Judge adjourned the case until Sat
urday morning to give the city of Ed
gerton time to interpose a defense in
case the common council saw fit so to do.
In case the city fails to answer by that
date, the piece of land which Mathew
Croft donated for the purpose of per-
petuating a pleasure place to the COM
munity will revert to his heirs, and the
city park will be recorded as thing of
the past. Whatever may be the out
come of the park lands, the memory of
the good man who made the donation in
all sincerity and for purpose which he
believed would be lasting pleasure and
benefit to posterity, will extend adown
the stream of time and the hills he do
mated will remain monument to his
deed.
One of the most pleasing entertain
ments given in this city for long while
was the social and reception which the
