ARCHBISHOP FALCoNIo.
VIII Be Rendered Reception Here in
 October.

October.
 Archbishop Falconio, papal nuncio to this country wil visit this city on Monday and Tuesday, October and G The papal delegate will be the guest of the Rev W. J. Slocum during his visit in this city. Arrangements for his reception have not as yet been deti- nitely decided upon. It was proposed to have a banquet rendered to him on Monday night at the Convent of Notre Dame by the priests in this city, who are members of the alumni of St Bona venture college, Allegany, N. Y., but at the archbishop's request this part of the program has been eliminated. A public reception may be tendered to Archbishop FalconiO in some church or hall The drawback to this would be the fact that no church or hall would be large enough to accommodate all the people who would like to hear or see the representative of the occupant or the holy see. On the occasion of the visit of Cardinal Satolli, then papaI delegate, to this city several years ago, "a public reception was held for q limit ed time in St Patrick's hall. The crowd of people was so large that only about quarter of them had the pleasure of seeing the papal nuncio.
 On Tuesday morning Archbishop Falc0nfo, after celebrating mass Ill some church or religious institution, may be driven about the city and shown the different churches and re- hgous institutions and other places of interest Tn the evening he will be rendered a reception at the Convent de Notre Dame by the sisters of the inst- tuition and the alumnae of the con vent At a meeting Of the alumnae last night preparations were made for the reception
 On Wednesday morning the papal nuncio will leave on an early train for Washington.
 All the more interest is attached to the papa1 delegate's visit to this city owing to the fact that he was once as- Eistant priest at the Immaculate Con- Seption church.

Fighting Noun taineer Dies With Boots
 On From His Last Battle.
 Connellsville. Pa. Sept 15.-old ABTT' Turner. the famous fighting mountaineer, is no more. Yesterday morning at 9 o'clock he bade goodby to his stalwart sons, kissed his wife and lay down and died after his last fight. Characteristic of his strenuous life was the death of Turner. Half an hour before the end came he called for his boots, which had been taken off after he was shot by James Swaney
 @IIet me put them on." he said, @for always said I'd die in my boots. That's more than a good many per- sons do.''
 Pulling the boots on without assist ance, Turner staggered to the door of the Rose cabin, which is just across the road from the Swaney store, and shaking his terrible fi&A at Swaney' s home, he muttered the wrath of thirty years at his old enemy. '1'n leave Jim Swaney to you" he said to his son Dave, who was at his side. "You and Chauncey look after him if he ever gets back bo Uniontown." Then he pEalked back. stretched his massive frame on the little bed and breathed his last
 Coroner Hagen says he died from septic peritonitis following the shoot ing.
 County Detective Alexander Me- Beth, who investigated the circum. stances of the shooting, went before Justice of the Peace W. H. Miller and made an Information against Swaney. charging him with the murder of Tur- ner. Swaney Is in jail in Uniontown.

 Stamford's Executive to Spend Spare
 Hours in Study in Yale
 Stamford, Sept 15.-Burlesque hunts in cat shows for chocolate mice no longer demanding his official vigilance, Charles Henry Leeds, the wealthy youth who still has a year to serve as mayor of this city, yesterday informed his friends he intended to enter Yale this fall for a three'years' course in political science and kindred subjects. He added he would continue to hold office and that his pursuit of knowl- edge would not interfere with the per formance of his duties. It would be necessary for him to go to New Ha- ven only twice a week for a few hours each time.
 Leeds, it is admitted, doubtless knows whereof he speaks, for he has been a mayor about year, and has been graduate of Princeton since 1895. Constituents, however, hazard the prophecy the interests of munich pality or university will suffer.
 It will be many years before Stam- ford society forgets the joke on the young mayor when youthful enthusi- asm influenced him to issue a ukase against the belles of the Connecticut club, who were holding a cat show, and, it was reported, were to pit prize tabbies against one another in a whole sale slaughter of dear little mice. The women permitted him to commit him. self before they let it leak out the dear little mice were made of sugar and spice and everything nice and rich brown layer of chocolate.
 Leeds, whose aspiration to office was regarded humorously, first attracted attention to himself, before his cleo ton. by promising not to interfere with the Sunday activity of the liquor

PUT NUMBER ON COLLAR.
Dogs Lives win Not Be Saved in Any
 Other Way.

Unlicensed dogs are being put out of business by the dozen every evening at the police station. Last evening a number of them were done away with and the business of the aldermen was incidentally interrupted One shot usually is sufficient, but last even ing the dog executioner got nervous once and missed his aim. Conse- quently the police station rang with painful bowling.
 It is not only necessary that the dog shall have collar, though it need not be linen collar nor ironed or starched, but it shall bear the owners name as well as the number of it's license in order that it may be saved from the executioner. A great many suppose that a collar only is necessary.
