With Stove Poker.
Boyden Wants License. .Hoyt
SChO0! Graduation.

An old lady who resides at Valley street
was very much annoyed this morning by
a trouse OF 80 or more little boys and
girls. The cause OF all the trouble was
a huge cherry tree. and at an early hour
this morning the old lady got young
MAI, 20 pick the luscious fruit. The man
had no sooner begun HIS work than half-
dozen children were on hand 10 pick up
aud eat the cherries that fell 10 the
ground.
The old lady evidently wanted every
cherry for when she saw the little ones
picking them up she came onto the lawn
armed with a huge stove-poker and told
the little ones that she would sn1fte them
with II II they did not let the cherries
alone.
The children did not go any further
than the sidewalk and as the work OF
picking the cherries proceeded the crowd
OF little ones grew larger and tho troubles
OF the older person grew in keeping with
the circumstances.
The indications are that the children
will he on hand until the last cherry is'
picked or eaten.
