AFTER THE BOTS. Lieutenant Ridgeway is waging a quiet, uhremltting war against the boys who loiter on the street corners till unseasonable hours at night, and during the progress of pranks make life unpleasant for people of the neighborhood. About a week ago he swooped down on a gang at Church avenue and Theodore street, and there has been very little or none of their noisy conventions at that place since. Many complaints were received from residents of the vicinity on Oak street and Wayne avenue, and thither he Went, last night, with a corps of assistants. He surprised the boys in the midst of their merriment, and ere they could disperse ten were taken into custody.

They each furnished substantial guar antee that they will be present for a hearing to night. EVENING PARTT. A very pleasant party was held at the home of James Kelly on Wednesday evening.

A GOOD RECOVERT. Karl Davitt, the 10 year old son Of Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Davitt. of 41 Willow street, has made a splendid re covery from a perilous illness.

The boy was first afflicted with pneumonia. The inflammation generated a large volume of pus, the removal of which required an operation. This was successfully performed by Dr. Brewster, who four weeks ago made an incision in the boy's neck and inserted a tube. This was effective.

The conditions along the new pave evening were dreadful. The wind lifted the dust Jn large volumes and hurled it on the faces and clothing of pedestrians. Conditions could not be much worse for the citizens who had to pass along this thoroughfare if the dust were shoveled on them. An exas perated citizen accosted a member of council and asked him if he were ashamed to allow such a state of at fairs. "Ashamed?" asked the councilman.

"Yes. but what can I do In the prem ises?" Do, answered the aggrieved one.

Old 'Phone Ml New 'Phone. Sit CORRECT HANDLING OF A C'J3 The division' of zoology of the Pennsylvania State Department of Agriculture, in Its bulletin for October baa tha following suggestions to htfntersi 'The hunting season ia at hand, and the newspapers will doubtless be filled with mnnlnff llvMmtl aa Mtlftl IffOsl of these accidents are due to careless ncss, or to ignorance in the proper waj) to carry and handle a gun. While It 1 true that a gunner is not likely to leans and bear in mind any fixed code of rules, is is possible for him to act in accordance with certain, genera! principles. These principles were published in our November Bulletin of last year, and were further circulated by the press. Although they were ridiculed by a few editors, who do not appear to undertsand the art of gunning and, the necessity of great care, we do know of at least one Instance where by their observance the loss of Kfa was doubtless averted.

"For the sake of saving even one life we shall gladly bear all ridicule that can be given by the thoughtless writers who think It smart to attempt to show their wit at the expense of persons in public offices. As it will soon be the hunting season a few rules may save very serious trouble, accidents, litigation and lose of life. There are sure to be many persons shot accidentally this month and next. This need not happen If all would ear In mind the following rules. Always keep the gun pointed from yourself and other persons.

"2. Carry a gun with the end pointed upward toward the sky or downward, toward the ground. Never sweep the horizon with it. If accidentally discharged hile In the former position no harm is likely to result but if discharged while held horizontally it may result seriously. "3.

In getting over logs or fences always see that the gun is first put over and in a solid position where It will not fall. Then go to another place to climb 'over, and pick up the weapon with the end pointed as it should he, from yourself and companions. Never pull or draw a gun toward, yourself by the muzzle, especially la wagons, boats, over fences, logs, etc. "5. Do not load the gun until after leaving the house, and draw the loads (or remove the caps, if a muzzle loader, and watch that no percussion is left on the tube) as soon as leaving tha hunting grounds.

"6. Never keep a loaded gun around the house or tent, and do not leave a loaded weapon where it can be knocked down by dogs or children. "7. Do not carry the gun cocked excepting when alert for the game to rise. "8.

Do not shoot into moving bushes or in the direction of a noise without being sure the desired game is there and seeing it for a certainty. The move ment or noise may be caused by some person or by domesticated stock. "9. Watch the muzzle of the gun that no mud, snow, or other material fill It; and do not load as heavily with white or nitro powder as with black powder. This may prevent accidents from bursting.

"10. Do not start a Are in tho woods without first providing against its spreading, and do not leave it burning under any circumstances. "11. Do not wound game and leavs it to suffer and die of its injuries. Better to spend an hour searching for a winged bird than to let it remain and suffer for a day or two before being relieved by a merciful "12.

Do not shoot protected birds or animals. There is a reason for protecting them. Find what it is and you will agree that the law is generally correct in giving them a protective season. "13. If you are going for fun only it is all right to take inexperienced friends, a well filled lunch basket, literature and a target, and go to the nearest grove.

But this is not hunting. "14. If going for game go alone or with experienced hunters only, and carry only what is essential. Hunt with the back to the sun, slowly and rfuietly, and in such places and at such time3 of day as experience has taught that the particular kind of game sought is to be found. "15.

Do not hunt for "anything and everything." This generally results in nothing. Different kinds of game are to found in different places and at varying times of day, according to the species sought. Decide before starting out as to the kind of game to be hunted and the region to be visited. "1. Ascertain if farms or premises are "posted" or hunting is forbidden there, and keep out of trouble either by avoiding them or by asking the owners for permission to hunt on those portions where no damage to live stock can result.

"17. If fences are knocked down in climbing over them, take time to fix them up properly. Leave gates and bars just as they were found. If open leave them so, as that i3 evidently what the owner wants; but if closed, be sura to close and fasten them as before. "IS.

Be satisfied with a fair shara of game, and do not try to exceed the legal limit or to kill all that may be found just because it may be there. "19. Do not commence hunting before the 15th of October. "20. Do not hunt rabbits or deer before the 1st of November.

"Only citizens of Pennsylvania are permited to hunt in this State without a hunting license. Non residents and unnaturalized foreigners must pay a license fee of ten dollars per season for the privilege of hunting or even carrying "a gun in the fields or in the forests or upon the waters of this Commonwealth."

The animal sank his teeth in Mrs. Baker's ankle twice. The ladies screamed and the dog was frightened away. Mrs. Baker and her daughter went home and applied hot vinegar and carbolic salve.

Mrs. Baker's leg was very much swollen, but she looks for no serious results to follow in hejr case. She does expect that something serious will happen to the dog and insists that the animal must be dispatched. BIRTHDAY PARTY.

James Morris, residing in Pine Brook, near rne jveuer piano lactory, burled a heavy stone through one of the win dows of an outbound Providence car, near Court street intersection of Provi dence road last evening. The lad was actuated by pure mischief and did not perhaps realize the gravity of his ac tion. At teh time he was playing with sev. eral 'v. r.panions, and one of them dared young Morris to throw the stone at the car.

The boy was too brave to ac cept the dare and, seizing the missile. he threw it through one of the side windows, toward the front of the car. Luckily, the car was not crowded, else serious results would 1 have occurred from his rash action. Lieutenant Ridgeway saw the boy and gave chase, when the little culprit took to his heels. The officer eventual ly captured him, but upon furnishing description to the motorman, dismissed the boy.
