FOUR BOYS WERE
SHOT At TOWER CITY

Tower City. Topics: Hallowe' en-
in nszTower City this Year was one
of the quietest that we have ever
had, at least that was what ine
crowd outside the postoflice lead
one to believe the next morning.
But it is doubtful if ever there
were any Of the celebrants as close
to death as four of the boys
Harry Hood, Roy Black, Ed Grit
fin and Earl Mohr--were last Sat
sn,,HAy night. - After Il few pranks
i'm the business part Of the town
these boys spied a wagon and ran
if into yard and the"l left, but
had hardly reached the road when
a shot was fred and each OF the
bows received shots in their pack
ard legs. Realizing Immediately
that they were in for it, they ran
for town and Deputy Marshal Erhl-
ar, who was on the lookout for the
marauders, told Topics reporter
that it is doubtful if a high speed
auto could have overtaken them.
Or. Hoff took charge of the cases
and was able to ind some OF the
shot. but the most of it had gone
too deep to be removed. The boys
are all suffering from the wounds
and it is to be hoped that there
will be no fatal results. This oc-
curramce is to be regretted and one
should bear in mind that the use
OF firearms is often times dan
gerous one.

Mr. Nord told how he happened to

was not feeling very well and went
into the drug store to get some

that Druggist Larsen mixed him up
