We are called upon once more TO
chronicle the fact that promiscuous
shooting and reckless discharging of
6re arms on the streets at night has
again started. Steps should be taken
to put a stop to this. Such actions
can only be attributed to hoodlums
and is of no earthly necessity. Some,
and we might say many Of the young.

disturbing the peace, are known and
should be reported and dealt with to

All Caused From Gossip.

The following is very truthfully
told: "Gossip has made many a
home q hell on earth; gossip has
parted husbands and wives; gossip
has b!ackened the character of many
poor gilIs; gossip has parted lovers
who would have been very happy if
il had not been for gossip. One little
misstep, or one little indiscretion
causes gossip to arise with new
strength and start on its MISSION. A
gossiper is about the lowest and
meanest thing on earth"

Over in western Canada the United Gas
Company. which controls the salable output
Of the natural gas wells, has begun a policy
Of retrenchment which has aroused alarm
In a very wide region. It has cut of all
the factories in the thriving manufacturing
town Of Kingsville and Is reported to be
considering the discrimination of its sup
ply to all the heavier users of gas in its
Canadian field.
Whether or not this decision is the result
Of the company's finding that the Detroit
field. to which it has always sent much Of
the output of the Essex wells, is better

meager dispatches. but the change has Gre

controlled the export of the Canadian pro-
duct Two years ago there was q protest
against the unchecked expectation Of nat
ural gas from Ontario to the United States

BUSINESS MEN TO ORGANIZE.
Call for Meeting to Re Held Next
Tuesday Night.

Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.
LAUREL, Md, January IL, 1901.
A call has been issued to the business
men of the town to assemble Tuesday night
at Hills Hall, when plans will be discussed
for the organization Of business men 8
association. A circular has been addressed
to every man interested, stating the object
of the meeting and urging each and every
one to be present. The circular states brief
ly the condition of the business interests,
and their gradual decay, the prediction be-
ing made that the town will experience a
more decided slump in trade than has been
the case during the last five years, unless
some immediate steps are taken to prevent
it. In his special message to the city coun-
Gil Mayor Phelps strongly advocated the
formation of such an organization as the
one in view.
With the accomplishment Of the project,
it's efforts will be directed toward estab-
fishing closer business relations with Bal
timore and other Maryland cities, attract
ing capital and labor to Laurel. Another
point to receive attention ana one Of the
most important items will be the endeavor
to get the Washington Traction Company
to construct the electric road through to
this town. This road is part Of the pro-
jected system that was to connect Was h
ington and Baltimore 1t has been built
from Baltimore out as far as Ellicott City,
distant ABOUT WE'VE or HIteen nnles from
this point. That part from Washington
reaches to Berwyn. nine miles from Laurel.
All the preliminary work has been COM
pleted from the former city TO this town,
including the cuts, fills and the building Of
culverts. In many places the rails were
laid in position and ballasted, but there the
project hung fire, and instead Of pushing
the work through, the rails laid were taken
up and placed on the road at other points
between Washington and Berwyn. That
part Of the route between Ellicott City and
Laurel has been surveyed. but no other
work done on 1t.
1t is alleged that the high rates Of tariff
on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad have
been working against the town and that
business men to secure better rates. but
these efforts, 1t Is said. have met with but
little success
