the chief has instruced his officers to ar-
rest all boys that are found hanging
about the streets at night, without a
sufficient excnee, and boys who are
canght doing any sort of mischief.

Some boys have an idea it would be a
nice thing to get arrested and have their
name in the paper, but if they knew
what was in store for them they would
flee from it quicker than from a ly
plague: They are treated with scant
ceremony and bread and water diet is
something thet the most hearty stomach
will rebel againet. Then there are other
means the jailer hasat hand to make
life miserabie for the culprits.

the following reasons and urge the re-

First—In the opinion of the city so-

Second—That the location is no.a

MAYOR MANLEY’S VISIT.

He Briefly Tells of His Part in the Al-
leged Claim Jumping.

Mayor Manley of Grand Forks was
asked by a representative of the Recorp
today to make a statement of the alleged
claim jumping credited to him by an
irresponsible paper of this city. Mr.
Manley said he was averse to entering
into any controversy about the matter.
He said he had been misrepresented;
that the parthe played in the staking
of the claims was simply for the purpose
of protecting the interests of his friends
and himself. The general impression
was that the Olive Mining company
claimed title to the property in ques-
tion when as a matter of fact
Manley had the title
which he held i Tn trust. it never having

en transferred to the Olive company.
In order to prevent outside parties who
were not cognizant of the facts, from
putting up stakes on the property and
in @ measure embarrassing the real
owners he placed new stakes there and
