men were taken to the James Walker
Memorial hospital for treatment.
1t was found that Glover's injury

An examination by the physicians
showed that Jones condition was very
serious. if not critical. the bullet hav-
ing entered the back and gone through
the abdomen and punctured the intes-
tines. It is considered that his
chances for life are very slight.

To Editor of the Journal and Courier:
Street up and street down I travel in
this City of Films, how beautiful it is
with all its fine trees and how it cuts
me to the heart to see, as | pass along
among these stately sentinels, how
nearly every second one of them is
mutilated by horses that are left
.carelessly in the street.
Between the elm tree worms and
the knowing horses these dear trees of
ours have at the present a hard time.
Why should we not all Of us help them
as much as we can?
I believe it is in Springfield there is
"a fine of S. for the man who leaves
his horse so it mutilates tree that
belongs to the city.
Why cannot the authorities of our
city also do something that might stop
people in their thoughtiessness in re-
gard to our elms so that we for years
to come may be singing the old, old
song:

for Purpose.

AT meeting held at s, Aldernan's
shore cottage, recently, $1,000 was SUBJ
scTibed towards putting through the
project for a Hebrew school, Twenty
two men were present and their en-
thusiasm was unbounded, Inside of FIVE
minutes after subscriptions had been
called for the above amount had been
raised, one-quarter of which was in
cash. AT the rate the fund is increas-
ing, enough to pay for the German NJ.
E. church., where the school is to be
located, will be at hand much sooner
than was at first expected.
Another meeting was held last even
ing in the Rose street synagogue, and
another large sum was pledged. There
will be meetings held in the various
Hebrew sections of the city from time
to time to explain the movement and
its purpose. Subscriptions will be call

ron LABOR DAY.
Annual Demonstration In This City ns
Usual.

Agitation in other cities among la
Dor men to dispense with the annual
Labor day demonstrations has not
struck here, according to statement
made yesterday by Joseph Reilly, sec
rotary of the Trades Council Of this
city. The celebration here for several
years has taken the fern Of a field
day and picnic at Sayin Rock and
plans are now being made in acord-
ance with this precedent. There will
be athletic events and ball game be-
tween rival teams Of the big organi-
2ation here at the ball grounds, and
lbig crowds are expected to be in at
tendance.
One argument being urged against
the celebration in other cities is that
# would be wiser and more beneficial
TO apply the money incurred by such
parades and displays to sick benefits.
Mr.. Reilly said he voiced the senti-
ments Of the working men here when
he said that they would not think Of
giving up an opportunity Of showing
a visible pride in their day of jolliiica-
ton and their triumph In securing 1t
as a day Of leisure, recognized as a
national holiday
