Five Boys Land in Jail on Account o.
Misbeheavior at Depot

! Last night reports came up town
that gang of boys were having a
free for all at the depot. The reports
indicated nothing much short of MUIR
der. The police FASTENED to the scene
and found that bunch Of boys who
had been drinking too freely were
trying to raise rough house and
were using indecent language. They
were arrested and four of them were
given lodgings at the county Jail.
Some of the boys are not ordinarily
bad fellows and out of respect for
them we mention no names. 1t is TO
be hoped that the lesson will be a
good one for them and that they will
learn that the streets Of Denison mus,
be kept free from disorderly rows.
Today the Mayor fined five Of the boys
$25. 90 each. This will hold them fol
some time.
