A reward of five dollars has been
offered BY tie city Tor the apprehen.
sion of the person or persons who haze
dtshgured alarge number of build.
tngs in the city by marking the letters

1t seems almost incomprehensible
that boys from IA to Is years of age
could be guilty of performing such
babyish and utterly silly acts rs that
referred to above, yet certain undis-
puted facts lead one to believe that it
has been perpetrated by lot of
would-be young gentlemen. 81. A. c.

Athletic Club" and presumably fail

be good thing, but the members
ought to find &C me better use for their
muscles than defacing buildings.

Municipal Court.

A special term of municipal court
WAS held Saturday forenoon at 10
O'Clock. The following cases were
heard and disposed Of:
l. State OF Minnesota vs.. John
Weldon, on charge OF petit larceny,
L. A. May being the complaining w.t.
ness. The complaint charged the de-
fendant with having stolen four oran'
ges from a box at the Great Northern
freight depot on Friday afternoon.
He pleaded guilty and was given the
choice Of % fine and costs or days.
He chose to pay tho fine.
Mr.. Weldon came here from Sioux
Falls to take examination as section
foreman from Yardmaster Connolly.
2. State of Minnesota vs.. Martin
Olson, charged with selling q package
Of smoking tobacco to boy under
the age OF Is. He pleaded guilty, say
Ing however that the boy had inti-
mated that the tobacco was for some.
one else. This, however. did not al.
ter the case any and the defendan,
was sentenced to pay fine Of % and
costs. The same we're paid.
3. State of Minnesota vs.. Frank
Cleary, charging him with giving to"
bacco to another boy. he pleaded
guilty aud was fned 81 and costs.
The same will be paid.
4. State of Minnesota vs. John
Gault, Great Northern freight con.
ductor, charged him with having kept
q train on the crossing on Seventh
street for q longer period than 10
minutes ON November II last year.
He pleaded guilty and was fined $5
and costs. The same were paid.
These cases prove that the present
police authorities are determined to
enforce the law without fear or favor
and we feel confident that In so doing
they have the hearty support OF all
law abiding citizens< Several boys
have been arrested lately for smoking
cigarettes and We are glad that the
parents OF the youthful culprits have
approved of the officers actions In al
most every instance. The pernicous
cigarette has been entirely too popu.
lar here for some time and ss it is not
only detrimental but also unlawful,
the officers of the law deserve double
praise for their efforts in endeavoring
to minimize it. We think that most
OF our boys are desirous OF being law
abiding and OF behaving themselves
a. it behooves young gentlemen and
they must know that it is impossible
to call anyone young gentleman who
HES himself into dirty alley to enjoy
q moments bliss with "pill'''' or who
parades the street with t'coffin nall
carefully planted In a corner OF his
mouth.
