DANIELSON Premature estebration of the Fourth in Danislson must ceage forthwith. This statement was made at the week end by Chiet John MoFarland, who is determined that the abust of good nature permitted during the past week shall met go un- challenged during the present week. Iteling fingers and imaginative minds have resuilted In an almost constant pep- ping of explorives throughout the day in different paris of the borough and even fireworks displays during the evening houres, when , aerial bombs and other devices have been set off by those ‘who cannot await the proper time of ob- servance. Chiet McFarland cited one instanee ‘where a cannon cracker was thrown in- to the center of Main street and burst with a loud explosion during the midst of am afternoon’s shopping period. ‘The practices of the past week have become so widespread as to force ac- tion by the police, and hereafter until sunrise of the morning of the Fourth any person who sets off an explosive or fires a mun er revolver or otherwige dis- turbs the peace along the lines indicat- will rt. There are residential town be arrested and presented In sections of the where boys for A week past have found no keener delight than in the prac- of throwing the f under passing automobiles, with the risk of igniting the gasoline and burning up the cars. Chief McFarland has determined that all of this recklessness shall cease and that Danielson shall be safe and sane at least until of the Fourth. Hal R.

In addition to these matters, Captain Bulger expects this week to have traffie lanes painted at Rugbee square which a pedestrians will be made. to use in cross ing from corner to.corner.
