Through the efforts of W. A. Selita, an efficient employe of the eorapany, several perwon have been canght and made to saffer for their actions and it i» the intention of the company hereafter to leep a close watch along the line and if any person is seen or that suffciens proof can be obtained. that will conviet, they will punish the guilty ones to the full extent of law. This is a bad practice and should be stopped. Rivetveid Har Sentence.
