ELEVEN TEAK OIJ) BOY
KIM.EI) AT BA.XGOR.
The 11-year-old son of .Mr. and Mrs. John Wagner, of Bangor, was killed on Sunday evening about 7 oclock, ¦when an auto, driven by George An¬ drew, of Pen Argyl, ran over him. Andrew was driving his machine to¬ wards Pen Argyl, and as he neared the top of Bangor hill, at a slow rate of speed, two boys ran across the street in front of the auto. In order to avoid striking the boys, Andrew made a quick turn of the wheel and the machine ran into the gutter along the side ot the road. As soon as the car struck the side of the road, the Wagner boy jumped down from an embankment, directly in front of the auto. The front wheel of the ma¬ chine knocked the hoy down and the wheel passed over hira. Andrew tried to stop the machine before striking the boy, but it was impossible to do so, and in his efforts the engine stall¬ ed with the hind wheel on the hoy's neck. He was- immediately taken from underneath the auto and Dr. J. J. Mazza, of Bangor, and Dr. I. N. Johnson, of Pen Argyl, • were surm- moned, but the injuries were so se¬ vere that the child's life could uot be saved.
The impact broke the neck and Jaw of the little boy, and he also sustain¬ ed severe bruises and lacerations. He is survived by his parents, two sis¬ ters, Hazel G. and Agnes .M., und ono brother, Enos, -ill living at homo. The funeral was held Wednesday , after¬ noon from his late home, with ser¬ vices in charge ot Hev. E. W. Lentz. Interment in Fairview Cemetery, Pen Argyl.

WAYSIDE 0.\THEUEBS.
NAZARE.NE USES "SLUGS" TO
PAY  KOR FHO.\E CYLLS.
The Wayside Gathers wiil give an unique entertainment in the chapel of Nazareth Hall, on Tuesday, Nov. 4.
There wiil be a series of tableaux illustrating the old nursery rhymes which have charmed little folks, and big folks, ever since Mother Goose lived in a shoe. Incidentally mothers and teachers may learn new ways of entertaining little tots, and also re¬ ceive judicious hints on the use, or misuse, of corporal punisliment.
There will be Littio Polly Flinders, who sat on the cinders. Jack atid Jill carrying water. Hush a-bye baby in the tree top, and many others. In¬ cluded among lliem is sing a song of six pence. How many know thut the latter is a nature myth"? The open¬ ing of the pie is the coming of tho dawn, when the birds begin to sing Tho king is tho sun counting out the golden liours, the ((uoen is the spirit of industry using the hours to make lite strong and sweet, Tlie maid is tho spirit of the air, who hangs the white clouds in tho blue sky, und the little l)lack bird that nips oif her nose is th" l)laili, bi'.ick niglit that hides the liiMTj clouds from our eyes.
The Wayside Gatherers do not wish to be frivolous so they endeavor to combine in this entertainment advice, instruction, and amusement,
Mrs. Florence Brockman has kind¬ ly volunteered to ping the rhymes to a new and pretty setting of music.
For the past few months the Slate Belt Telephone & Telegraph Co., had found quite a few blank slugs in their pay station boxes and the company has been making close investigations into the matter. It happened on Friday evening that A .Q. Connolly, president ot the company, had occas- sion to remove all the money from the Nazareth Inn pay station. Short¬ ly afterward Frank Siegel, who oper¬ ates a store on So, Maiu Street, be¬ low Hagenbuch's resKuirant, went into the Inn pay sta..,.' and put in a call for a party at 1 ulmerton, when the exchange girl got Palmerton, she asked Mr, Siegel to drop his money. He dropped enough "slugs" equal to a quarter in change, which is the charge to Palmerton, and evidently one of the slugs did not ring the bell which lets the operator know that the amount is dropped, and she requested hiiri to drop an additional dime, ho argued with her and finally dropped another "slug."
Coming out of the booth he saw Mr. Connolly standing in the Inn lobby. He approached him complain¬ ing that the exchange girl made him drop ten cents too much. Without continuing the argument .Mr. Connol¬ ly got his keys out ot his pocket, and told Mr. Segal to wait a minute, he '.vould see whether ho dropped too much. When .Mr. Connolly went in¬ to the booth to open the box .Mr. JJe- gal went out and got out of sight. Whon the box was opened it contain¬ ed five "slugs." Several people were then called to witness the contents.
A search was made for .\Ir. Segal, but he could not be found.
Mr. Connolly then went to 'Squire
HAY LINE I'UTH CARS
INTO OPERATION.
t The Northampton Traction Com¬ pany Monday morning began run¬ ning cars on its lines between Eas¬ ton and Nazareth, and Easton and Bangor, the first since the strike of motormen and conductors was called a week ago. Only two cars were running, nie flrst reached Easton terminus of the road. Fourth and Northampton Sts., about 7 oclock and the second about half an hour hiter. The cars were manned by the company's despatcher and shopmen and trackmen. Few passengers were carried during the o-irly morning hours, due, no doubt, in part at least, to the fact that no announce¬ ment had been made that an effort would he made to reopen the lines. It was announced that the cars would not be run at night for the present.
Between 10 and 11 oclock W. O. Hay, general manager of the road, notified the Easton police that a crowd had collected on Pearl St., and officers wero immediately despatched to the scene. When a car came along U is alleged that a man who is not a striker, tried to induce those witli Ilim to pull the motorman and con¬ ductor from the car. No disorder occurred, however.
On one of the trips, one of the cars carried a sign "U. ri. .Mail." When this car left Fourth and Northamp¬ ton Sts., Easton, City Detective Sim¬ mers and Policeman Fisher lioppea on and rodo to the city limits. At the company's station on Bushkill St., west of Fourth, three sacks of mail were taken aboard. No effort was made by any ouo to molest the crew j or to impede the progress of the car.
The strikers held a meeting .Mon-

furnishes a very pleasing effect. The congregation deserves to be congratu¬ lated upon the completion of such a noble work.
The first service was held on Sun¬ day morning at which service the Rev. F. K. Fretz. Ph D., paslor ot St. John's Lutheran Church, Easlon, preached the sermon. He took as his theme, "What think ye of Christ." He made an eloquent appeal for a wider application of the spirit of Christ and for the introduction of the principles of Chrisl inlo eve.yday life. It was a very impressive discourse and made a very favorable impression upon the large congregation assembled. The music at this service was furnished by the choir with Miss Pearl Schnerr as the soloist.
The service in the afternoon waa arranged so as to give the entire com¬ munity an oppiu'tunily to attend. It was held immediately alter the ses¬ sions of the various Sunday-schooLs. At this time the various pastors of the towu brought the greetings of their respective congregations. The speakers were Revs. P. S. -Meinert, of Nazareth Moravian Church; W, H, Wotring, of tteformed Church; R Henkelman, o and A. D. Thael
reth Hall -Military .Academy. The music at this service was furnished bj the St. John's Choir and the Naza¬ reth Choral Society numbering 100 voices under the efficient direction of E. Schneebeli. The choir rendered very effectively the very beautitul anthem, "Thou Wilt Keep Him iu Perfect Peaee," by Fred W. Peace. This was follovved by an anthem by the society of "Gloria" from Mozarts 12th mass The climax was reached wlii'ii the chorus rendered Gounod's "Gallia"' witli -\lr.->. W. Gi.-ary as the soloist. It was a very impressive service and wiil long liiiiier in the liearls of all preseni.

Mr. Steckel was a native of Balh. this county, and was a" son of the long since deceased Joseph and Elizabeth Steckel. His grandfather, Daniel Steckel, was one of the first settlers at Bath, having    come    there    from
what  is now Lehigh  Co.,  where  his ' ''"    "'•',' ,    .

He received his early education in the sehool at Balh, and laler came to Easton, where he was a student at the old Vanderveer Acad- ' emy. Later he decided lo study law and entered the office's of the late .Matthew Hale Jones, Sr,, who was at Unit time one of the leading mem¬ bers of the bar of this county, and af¬ ter completing his work there was ad- milled to the bar on -\pril 22, 1851. i At about the same time he was ad¬ mitted to practice law before the Su
Next Sunday, Oct. 25Ui, has been designated by tbe Savings Division of the Treasury Department as Thrift Sunday in the churchee of Eastern Pennsylvania, Southern New Jersey and the State of Delaware embraced within the 3rd Federal Reserve Dis¬ trict. On this day, clergymen will make "Thrift" the subject ot their esrmon or in some other way bring before their congregation the vital necessity of s.vstematically saving at least a part of their income.
Thrift Sunday comes as the culmi- I nation of a short    educational    cam- ! paign    of    thrift held in schools and churches.     Letters have been receiv. ed by the Savings Division from lead- ¦ ing educators and prominent clergy¬ men endorsing the Government's ef¬ forts in making thrift a national hab¬ it.    It is the concensus of their opin- ] ion that churches and schools afford an Impressive medium in bringing be¬ fore the people the need of develop¬ ing those habits ot thrift and saving ; that are such a stabilizing influence in    the    restration of indusirial and social settlement.
The study of thrift has been made ' a part of the curriculum in the pub¬ lic schools and has received whole by Superin¬ tendents and Principals everywhere. Dr. Thomas E. Finegan, State Super¬ intendent of Schools in Pennsylvania, has expressed the opinion that there should be regular and systematic in¬ struction in the subject of thrift in every school in the land. On Friday, Ocl, 24, Registration Day will be ob- .served in the sch<5ols, when the chil¬ dren will register their intention of iiecoming regular savers and will be il,vited lo give a practical demon¬ stration of thrift by opening a sav¬ ing account vN'ith their teachers.
