and . o'clock last night young
Italian whose name could not be
learned. came running from the court
house plaza over to the Wakeln corner
with big shotgun in his hand. He
stepped up to the 5. f. p. & p. Office
and looked in. but did not seem to see
anything there that looked like an easy
mark. so he turned around. retraced his
steps to the corner. passing a group Of
young men. and then rushed rapidly up
First avenue toward the postofice.
Some distance up the street he stopped
and broke the gun as though either
loading or unloading it and then went
on. \ few minutes later he returned
without the weapon. and as he
passed the group Of young men
one Of them asked him if anything
was the matter or il he was in any sort
Of trouble. He answered. No but
seemed to be very much excited about
something. Then he crossed Washing
ton street, wading through the mud.
and disappeared down Wall street. The
young men who spoke to him followed
MIN. but could not find him again.

prise the youth Of the city where the
churches are located and where the
gospel they are so much in need Of can
be secured. Not long ago visitor ia
the city entered an Office on Washing
ton street where several young men are
employed. Approaching the first one.
he said: can you tell me where the
Presbyterian church is?'' This particu-
lar clerk q I once became very busy and
judiciOusly failed to hear the question.
Tor. though he had lived here for q
couple of years. all churches looked
alike to him from the outside and he
had never seen one of them from the
inside. The stranger approached the
next man. who was also temporarily
deaf. The third man. seeing the visitor

clerks. thought it would be simple man

as ignorant. however. he said in reply
TO the question that he had only been
here a few days and did not know. so
the visitor turned to the fourth and last
clerk and repeated his question. That
man in reality had not been here n

arrival to make inquiry. But the re
