Themélves by Shooting a Re-

~ 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

Next week Mr. Cady will go to

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.

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

Fhey insist that the mild weather
is the cause of the incessant cakling

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~

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

will prevail until spring.
