It seems that Bobyok became vexed about something and jerking from under his coat a broad bladed knife, the blade of which measures over a foot in length started after Mr. and Mrs. John R. Chawnung who had incurred his displeasure.

The man and wife ran right nimbly and succeeded in eluding the murderous Mike. It is claimed Mike then made an effort to carve up some men who had witnessed his first failure along the homicide line. Along about this time Officer S. J. Ansil arrived on the scene and succeeded in pacifying Mike and disarming him.

Taken before Justice J. D. Hornbake Mike was held for court the formal charge being unlawfully and feloniously attempting to cut. Entertained Guild Mrs. William Landefeld was hostess to the Westminister Guild last evening at the beautiful country home of her parents, Mr.

James Downer and granddaughter Miss Annie Risher extending their cordial hospitality to the guests and serving a most delicious collation. Mrs. Gartside of Pittsburg was an out of town guest.

Secretary Wood made a farewell speech to the boys thanking them for their co-operation and good behavior and extended a very cordial invitation to any who should visit Mc-Keesport to come and see him at the Association. was then introduced and in a very thoughtful and forceful manner presented the pennant to Capt. Philip Scott the leader of the victorious Quakers.

Mr. McCullough held the attention of the boys and his address was a masterpiece of humor, narrative and sound advice to the boys present. He exorted then all to strive to Jbe pennant winners in life but first of all to be sure that they had won the pennant of a good character and a devotion to that which is for the advancement of right. After sing' ing a verse of America, Fred Landefeld took the boys in a journey across the cean in the Celtic. Fred has deve loped the happy faculty of seeing the humorous side of life's experiences and he displayed this characteristic last evening to the evident enjoyment of I his youthful auditors.

His description of the greac liner and the comparison with other ships was instructive and the tales of adventure and seasickness kept his hearers in a jubilant frame of mind. The talk was illustrated with slides from pictures taken by Fred and Miss Landefeld on theirjtrips. Ice cream was served and a flashlight taken of the group.
