go to the club house along the creek This

who make this place look disgraceful at the
station on Sunday evening. Coach loads of
DRINKS, both men and women, are un-

Railroad Company to have an officer placed
there and better order kept would be just,
as only few years ago there was a move
on foot to have the Railroad Company in
dicted for having such disorderiy place.
