HE SAYS HE saw TWO MOONS.

Two moons are what David Camp
bell, of Page county, AYERS he saw a
few nights ago
Campbell, very reputable and trust
worthy man, was aroused from slumber
about 8 O'Clock by some unusual
noises around his premises. The moon
at that hour was lying far to the south
and was shining brilliantly. Casting
his eve to the east, trying to locate the
noise that had broken his slumber
Mr.. Campbell was startled by the ap-
pearance OF a second moon Just above
the horizon.
Mr.. Campbell says he could not have
been mistaken in his lunar observations
and that for some time he stood gaz-
ing first at one moon then at the other.
Several weeks ago the letters N. c. "
and a perfect cross were seen in the
eastern heavens about dark by num-
Der of citizens of Page county, and this
latter spectacle seen by Mr.. Campbell
has contributed no little to the discom-
fort of the superstitious, and they are
ready to charge the phenomena to all
kinds of direful things that will soon be
visited upon the valley,

Gang FIGHTS IN NEW YORK.

Three men were dangerously wound
ed andi20 others more or less severe
ly hurt early yesterday in the most
serious gang fight" which has oc-
Cured in New York city in many years.
Police reserves in military formation
charged on the rioters and put an end
to the disturbance only after 100 shots
had been fired. According to the po-
lice reports, four gangs OF roughts par
ticipated and for fully half an hour
fought hand to hand with reyolvers,
sticks, stones and any other weapons
which we're available.
The fight was precipitated when the
members OF the Bear Athletic Club,
after a dinner in Tenth avenue beer
garden. began to leave the resort
shortly after midnight. While the
banquet was in progress the roughs
from rival organizations had gathered
at a neighboring street corner. Ac-
cording to the police, the "Gophers"
the Jungle Gang" and the Hounds
of He'll" all organizations with which
the officers OF the law had had expert
ences, were represented in the mob at
the corner.
With the appearance of the Bear
Club diners the fight commenced.
With yells, curses and shouts the wait
ing gangsters threw themselves upon
their rivals. Then some one fired a
revolver, and in an instant gun play
was the order OF the hour. The FIR
ing continued at irregular periods
until the appearance Of the police re-
serves.
Whenever gangster was felled he
was numerically beaten and kicked.
The entire neighborhood was thrown
into panic. Many of the injured were
carried off by their companions be
fore the arrival of the police. Fully
l25 men were still engaged in the
battle when the reserves reached the
scene. A half dozen arrests were
made.
