RAID BUCKET SHOPS
IN WESTERN PENNA.
16 Places in Pittsburgh and
Vicinity Closed.
A Housewife Restored.

Harrisburg, March 11.-Sixteen
raids on establishments alleged to be
bucket shops were made in Pittsburgh
and several western Pennsylvania
towns by forty state policemen, act
ing under the direction Of Deputy At
tCrney General Horace W. Davis, the
raids being the first move in what is
termed at the capitol to be an effort
to clear the state OF such places.
The raid has been in preparation
for months. Last fall the matter was
placed in the hands Of Attorney Gen
eral Brown by Governor Brumbaugh
and Mr.. Davis was assigned to the
Investigation. The warrants were
sworn out few days ago, and THURS
day Major john C. Groome, supe in

in the hands of the troopers, with in

best. Hebrews has been ascribed to
Clement of Rome, st. Luke, Barna-
bas and st. Paul. The consensus of
scholarship today seems to indicate
Appolos as author, Italy outside of
Rome, possibly Brundislum as the
place where written, Ephesus as the
place addressed and 61-62 A d. as
the date when written. The reason
for denying Pauline authorship Is
dissimilarity in mode of thought and
argument. The writer does not view
the Law from the ethical standpoint
as St. Paul does, but from the ritua-
listic. Again, he quotes the Old Tes-
lament from the Septuigent version
and is apparently an Hellinist, not
familiar with the Hebrew text. Again
he does not so much as mention the
antithesis between Jew and Gentle.
The epistle is addressed to persons
of class not so likely to be thrown
to the beasts of the arena, as to suf-
fer in a monetary way by boycott in
business or in their social standing
by the rebuff of those with whom
they had been accustomed to asso-
ciate. This indicates a class above
the average of the ordinary converts
and those whose disciplin, would en-
able them to understand line Of
argument which would be obscure to
others.
