"Will Joe die. do you think?" asked William. AVhllo several nurses and attendants were trying to comfort the boy, the roil! story as to what led up to his visit to the hospital was levealcd. William told his story just like nny other boy of his age would tell It. "Jly cousin, Joe Shields, who lives nt my house, and I were playing last nlglrt In the cellar, when wo found a revolver underneath a box, Wc began to play U with tho revolver, loo picked up n, can and placed it on a rhnlr and told me to shoot at It.

The bullet hit Joe in stead of hitting tho can. Honest, I wanted to hit the can. You can ask Joe and he will tell you that I nm telling tho truth." Suddenly William got up from his chair and bald: "Say, can't I see Joseph for a little while, and If oti don't believe what 1 nm telling vou. why you can ask him." One of the nurses led William upstairs into one of the wards. For a while Wil liam stood In tin- waul looking at tho facvx of several youngsters. As he turned his head ho raised his hand and shouted: "Tht-rr Is Jne." William rushed over to a cot which w:u occupied by Joseph Shields, 13 vcars old. of 2211 South Hicks stieet, stiff,. ling from a bullet wound In tho buck. Joseph was conscious. "Did I mean tn shoot you?" asked William. "No, you didn't." answered Joteph. Tho wounded boy was brought tn the hospital late last night by his parents.

Officials of tho Women's Hospital, at Lid street and North College avenue, noti fied tho poller today that John Anderson, one of the few male employes of tho hos pital and tho onb one whoso duties took him Into tho wards, has disappeared. Anderson has not ben s.ecn for two Kot'ks, and the hospital authorities are worried about him. I'.irt of the man's salary is still due htm. It Is thought that ho may have gono back to Hwcden, his native land, because uf the European war. Anderson had been employed at the hospttnl for 12 cais and wns well liked. When last seen ho cairled a suit case, and this tends color to tho theoiy that he started Lack to Sweden. Philadelphia Is to have a real Xew Year's Pat ado this year. That Is the de teiminntlon of the South Philadelphia KuslnesH Men's Association, whose mem bers feel that the city should take every possible advantage of tills phase of ad vertisement, particularb since tho European war has tended to depress business conditions heie. It Is believed a Xew Year's celebration which would attract nation-wide attention and interest would matoilully advance tho prosperity of Philadelphia business, and any seeming extrnvaganco In the purchasing of cos tumes for the event would be an invest ment amply repaid by the results. The numerous clubs and oiganlwitlons which compose the smaller units of tho Xew Year parade havo already begun to mobolizo their forces, and tho spliil of rivalry which Is always keen between tlicni Is quite nianlfist een at this early day. Each leader Is planning and scheming for features which will draw distinction upon his particular organiza tion n the form of przes. These features aro guarded Jealously, for each fears a rival may take ad vantage of tho Idea and produce some thing oven more blzane. An effort to advertise tho celebration nil over tho 1'nlted States and to provide proper tiansportatlou facilities for those who will visit tho city at that time is being mado by a committee under tho leadership of Ttobort Aiken, and tluough their efforts nnd those of tho locnl or ganizations. It Is believed that Philadel phia will witness a celchrntlon on De cember 31 that will surpass anything of the kind that hns been produced In this country.

A new public school to supply tho needs of one of downtown's most rnpldly grow ing sections Is soon to rise on the site occupied by car barns nt 13th street and' Snyder avenue. This was decided after an Investigation by Francis S. Cantrell, Jr., James M. Hazlett and J. Parker N'orrln. Jr., constituting a board of road viewers. These filed a report yesterday awarding $150,000 for the site. It Is expected that the Frankford and Southwarlc City Passenger Railroad Com pany, to whom $00,000 of the award will go, and the Thirteenth and Fifteenth Streets Passenger Railroad Company, which Is to receive the remaining $100,rp00, will nccept the price set for the ground. The car barns were built many years ago when Snyder avenue marked the farthest southern part of Philadelphia's building line. Since then thousands of houses hnve been erected below this street and the population has increased to such an extent that additional school facilities aro badly needed. RED LIGHT HIS UNDOING Policeman Watches Lantern's Zig zag Course, Then Arrest Bearer. It is generally agreed that there are lots of honest men In CJermantown, but ileorge Ducklt, of Voungslown, Ohio who started out to find one early this morning, a la Diogenes, had to be sat isfied with Policeman Kenny, who Is equal to any emergency. Kenny saw a red light moving down Chelten avenue. He noticed that it took ft zigzag course and was convinced It could not be a police patrol. He hid In the shadow ot a building until the light reached him. Ducklt was the bearr, and as he could give only a hazy expla nation as to how he got it, th police man took him nnd the light to the Germantown police stution. When the prisoner hid ti henring before Magistrate Pennock. it developed that many other lights In Uermnntown were missing. Incidentally there came wails of complaint from a dozen other prisoners, several declaring that If Duekit had let the red lights alone last night they would have been able to roach home safely. Ducklt disclaimed responsibility for the disappearance of the other lights. Tho Magistrate sent him to the House of Correction for five days.

Manufactured by LEUN & FINK, New York Jfo Lw YOM HAKIPURIM, DAY OF ATONEMENT, BEGINS AT SUNDOWN Solemn Jewish Ceremonial Will Be Observed by Mil lions in All Parts of the World. In th tribunal of hiavi nnd th tribunal of earth, by the p'rmliiilon of Oml-blMiea ! He end by th permission of this holy con gifuntlon. wo hold It lawful to pray with the tran'srrs-or. This prayer, chnntcd to the qunlnt and plaintive melody of ages at sundown to night In every synagogue nnd Improvised synagogue In the world, from every bat tlefield nnd battleship, will usher In tho most solemn day of the Jewish year Yom Haklpurlm, or the Duy of Atone ment. This year the day, hallowed as It ! by centuries of devout observance despite all obstacles, will have an added signifi cance. For from tho throats of 11,000,000 Jews there will go forth the first unani mous prayer alnre the great cataclysm for a restoration of pence on earth and good will to men. Here, In America, where none Is di rectly affected, the synagogues will re sound with weeping and walling, for thousands of those who will offer the prayer will recall the members of their families, particularly In Itussia and Oallcla. who hav already fallen or who are still on the firing line. In the belliger ent lands It will cause prostration nntl hvstcrla, for It will come from the hearts of the wounded nnd the mourners: It will come from the fathers and mothers as well as from wives and children of thosr on the battlefields. The prayer quoted above ii the one with which the services begin. It Is called Kol Nidre. from the Initial two words. A few minutes before sunset on the eve of tho Day of Atonement, when the congregation has gathered In the synagogue, the Ark Is opened nnd two mbbia, or two leading men in the com munity, take from it two Torahs. or scrolls of the law. Thrn they take their places, one on each side of the cantor, nnd the three begin tho service. With this service also begins the fast, which will last until sundown tomorrow. The Orthodox Jews observe this fast so rigorously that they will not even tnstr water in the entire 2t hours. Many of them spend the entire time in the syna gogue, using the time In which they ordinarily sleep In the recitation of the Psalms and In other special prayers. Those who go home for the night will return to the synagogues aoout o'clock tomorrow morning and remain there until about 0 In the evening. In the reform tcmpIcH the services are shorter and several recesses are declared. The fast will be btoken by the blast of the Shoffar, or the long blow from the ram's horn, after the final service at sundown tomorrow. In this city the demand for seats In th" synagogues is so great that large halls In different parts of the city are converted into improvised synagogues. This year even the Arch Street Theatre Is being used for a similar purpose. This afternoon special collection boxes weie placed In nil the corridors of thn synagogues, the monev to go for those who will sufffr as a result of the war. This collection will be made throughout America, and it is expected that in this way a large sum will be collected. MEN SENTENCED FOR BEGGING Police Declare They Are Confirmed Panhandlers.
