Saul c. Steinthal, Henry Mayer, Da-
via Benjamin and Charles fremont.
These men, District Attorney

actual incomes amounted to more
than $4,000 a year From small
merchants, he said, they took as lit
tie as $40, but from the Weather

Boys Games Threaten
Verdure Court House Lawn

While many signs of spring nave
been seen, one of the signs that
proves that spring is here is the
removal OF the storm doors from the
Court House. This was done on
Thursday and to make the declara-
ton more binding, the beautlfHl
lawns in front of the building were
treated TO a coating OF fertilizer
The Court House lawns are al
ways most beautiful in the summer
but this year the boys threaten TO
mar the appearance of the green OK
panse by the practice which 'hcE
have of playing baseball on the lawn
after the court house Is closed at
night. Especially does this Work
havoc with the lawns at this time
as they are yet quite soft and 1t IS
not unusual to find large pieces o.
sod ripped up after one OF THESE
games has been in progress.
Appeals have been made 10 the
bows to cease this practice in ORDER
that the lawns may be placed IN the
hest possible condition but these ar-
reals have been in vain and 1t Is
probable that more drastic steps VIII
he taken IN the near future TO pre-
won't injury to the lawns.
