Those young hoodlums that go home after midnight had better be a little careful andlet their fingers from the property belonging to the city. A few nights ago a streetlamp was lighted when it was a bright moonlight night and shortly after an iron railingwas pulled out of the bridge near the Hilgen Manuf'g Comp. and thrown into the river.Be careful boys or it will be a costly joke.
