Tuesday night his daughter was startled by a peculiar noise, and hastening to his room, arrived just in time to prevent his leaping from the window. .She was unable to do anything to quiet him until some neighbors responded to a call for help, and he was finally pacified.

The better class of people of this community detest street profanity, and unbecoming decorum, and yet when it is practiced at their doors, they walk away and neglect their duty to bring such offenders to justice. Peace and good order in any town, can only be had and sus tained by the citizen doing his pprt to suppress the violation of the laws of decency and respect, and he who fails to assume and act his portion of upholding the public peace, can hardly be classed a good citizen. If offenders were punished there would be less of it done.

A Narrow Margin Normal School 1, Hazleton snow water. That in brief is the story of Saturday afternoon's base ball game on Normal Athletic Field. It was the closest and by far the most excit ing contest of the season, and the victory carried with it more glory than any game that Normal has won in a long while. There were absolutely no grounds upon which to claim that the victory was due to luck. It was won clearly on merit, by two good hits and the Hazleton team's sympathizers at home can take solace from the fact that their pets put up an article of ball that win the majority of games. There were but two misplays made, both of which were of an excusable nature. It is safe to say that a more happy crowd of people than the one which filed out of the enclosure after the game, never left a ball field. The score: .bloomsburg. ...00000000 1 r Hazleton 00000000 o o Earned run Bloomsburg. Three base hit Aldinger. Two base hit Ward. Struck out- By Williams 5; by Breham 1. Base on balls Off Williams 1.
