Smith, who Cole of SSE i EGGS ARE DOWN Themélves by Shooting a Re- volver to Annoy Pedestrians ~ Between nine and ten o'clock last night a shot from a revolver in the hands of a member of a gang of street corner loafers, congregat- ed at the comer of East Packer avenue and South River street, narrowly missed striking a woman who was passing along the street, and caused consternation among the peaceful inhabitants of the ncighborhood. For some time past,and especially when the nights have been warm, a gang, composed of boys and young men, ‘whose azes range anywhere from 10to 21 years, has been in the habit of congregating at the corner named and when not located at this point amuse themselves by prowling about dwellings in that neighbor- hood, peering into the windows, knocking on front doors and other- wise annoying the residents. Last night they assembled as usual and when they saw the woman, who had been to a store on an errand, one of them fired a revolver in her direction. The bullet whizzed past her in close proximity and spent itself in the air. The woman screamed and the gang laughed, and then ran to their respective domiciles. The people residing in the neigh- borhood rushed to their doors to see if any one had been shot and this morning com. plaint was entered to the police. It is likely that complaints will be made against members of this gang as their names are all known to the authorities and in the event of their arrest there will be a job for the graad jury. MR. CADYS LAST SUNDAY The Rev. F. T. Cady, who has been rector of the Church of the Redeemer for the past five years, will conduct services in that church tomorrow. for the last time, Next week Mr. Cady will go to Ambridge, this state, to become the rector of the Episcopal church in that place. During his pastorate here Mr. Cady has made scores of friends, not only among his own congregation but with the people of Sayre generally, and all will exceedingly regret his departure He will be followed, however, by their best wishes. He will prob ably remove to Ambridge some time during the coming week as his pastorate isto begin in that place on the first of next month. THANKS AND A REQUEST | The ladies of the M. E. church desire to return thanks to all who in any way contributed to the suc- fcess of the birthday social, If those receiving pockets, who could not or did not care to attend the social would return them with any contribution they felt disposed to make, it would be greatly appre ciated. We desire to make as large a payment as possible. upon the parsonage debt, and any assistance from anyone will be thankfully re ceived. J. F. Warner, pastor. For Ladies’ Aid Society.

For the past year, however, the mem- bership has fallen off perceptibly and last night it was decided to abandon the project for a time at least. This step on the part of the members was deemed advisable as at the present time the club's finans ces were in good shape and disso- lution could be effected without embarrassment. According to a statment given out this moming the charter will be retained by the present mem- bers so that if at any time in the future it is desired to reorganize, and do business a meeting can be called for the purpose, and a reor- ganization effected with but little trouble, At the meetng of the club held last night the furniture and other pharphernailia was disposed of to the members, nearly all the mem- bers buying one or more articles. The rooms in the Wheelock block which have been occupied by the club for some time will be abandoned as will everything else that has been an item of ex~ pense. The dissolution of the club will be regretted by many of the mem. bers. The rooms were nicely fitted for the purpose and they have been a source of much enjoyment to the younger members who made it a point to spend many of their even- ings there. It is hoped that cre another winter passes interest in the club can be renewed and a re- organization effected. HIT BARTENDER WITH CANE Between 1 and 2 o'clock this morning Thomas Hassen, a bar- tender at the Sayre House, went to the office of Dr. Higgins and had several stitches taken in a contused wound in the back of the head, the result of having been hit with a cane in the hands of a man whom Hassen had orfjered out of the hotel Tate in the evening. It is said that the man was a cripple and that he came to the hotel with several others. Shortly after the arrival of the crowd they got noisy and the bartender told them to be quiet or leaye. to move and the bartender, it is alleged, attempted to forcibly eject them, During a scuffiec which fol lowed Hassen was hit on the head with a cane.

Storage eggs that were sold a year ago at the rate of 20 cents a dozen are being sold at from 8 to 10 cents per doz~ en.

For that reason the farmer hen syndicate is squeezing the cold storage speculator as he has never been squeezed before At present it is estimated that there are 200,000 cases of eggs in storape at various points through out the country and speculators fear that the present low prices will prevail until spring.
