I pulled the trigger nnd thonj Joe fell down. Tlie Duuot nit joe in stead of hitting tho cnn. Honest, I v anted to hit the can. You can ask Jo and he v.111 tell you that I am telling the truth." Suddenly William got up from his chair and said: 'Way, can't I see Joseph for a little while, and If you don't believe what I am telling vou. why you can ask him." One of the nurses led William upstairs Into ono of the wards. For n while Wil liam stood In the ward looking nt the faces of several youngsters. As he turned Ills head he raised his hand and shouted: "There Is Joe." William rushed over to a cot which was occupied by Joseph Shields, 13 years old, of 2211 South Hicks street, suffering from a bullet wound In the back. Joseph was conscious. "Did I mean - shoot you?" asked William. Jf "No, you didn't," oliiwcied Joseph. The wounded boy was brought to tho hoipltnl Into last night by his pnrcnts.

Tlie numerous clubs and organizations which compose the smaller units of the New Year parade havo already begun to mobollze their forces, and the spirit of rivalry which is always keen between thorn is quite manifest even nt this early day.

An effort to advertise tho celebration all over the United States nnd to provldo proper transportation facilities for those who will visit tho city at that time Is being made by a committee under the leadership of Robert Aiken, and through their efforts and those of the local or ganizations. It Is believed that Philadel phia will witness a celebration on De cember 31 that will surpass anything of the kind that has been produced In thi country.

It Is generally agreed that thete are lots of honest men in Germantown, but George Duckit, of Youngstown, Ohio, who started out to find one early this morning, a la Diogenes, had to be sat isfied with Policeman Kenny, who is equal to any emergency.

When the prisoner hid a hearing before Magistrate Pennock. It developed that many other lights In Germantown were missing. Incidentally there came walls of complaint from a doen other prisoners, several declaring that If Duckit had let the red lights alone last night they would have been able to reach home safely.

Thin prayer, chanted to the qunlnt and plaintive melody of ages nt sundown to night In every nynngogiie nnd Improvised Rynngogue in the world, from every bat tlefield nnd battleship, will u-her in tho most Bolcmn day of tho Jewish yenr Yom llaklpurlm, or the Day of Atone ment. This year the dnv. hallowed ns It la by centuries of devout observance despite all obstnele. will have nn added signifi cance. I'or from tlie throats of 11,000,000 Jews there will go forth the first unani mous pravcr slnco the great cataclysm for a restoiatlon of peace on earth nnd good will to men. Here, in Amcrlrn, tvhere none Is di rectly affected, the synagogues will re wound with weeping nnd walling, for thousands of those who will offer tha prn.ver will recall the members of their families, particularly In Itupsla nnd Onlleln. who hnve nlrendy fallen or who are still on the firing line. In the belliger ent lands It will cause prostration nnd hvsterlu, for It will come from the hearts of the wounded nnd the mourners; It will come from th fathers and mothers ns well as from wives and children of those on the battlefields. The prnver quoted above Is the ono with which the services begin. It Is called Kol Nldre, from the Initial two words. A few minutes before sunset on the eve of the Day of Atonement, when the congregation has gnthered In the synngogue, the Ark Is opened nnd two rabbis, or two lending men In the com munity, take from It two Tornhs. or scrolls of the law Then they take their place,, one on each side of the cantor, nnd the three begin the service. With this service also begins the fast, which will last until sundown tomorrow. The Orthodox Jews obsrvc this fast so rigorously that they will not even taste water In the entire 21 hours. Mnny of them spend the entire time In the syna gogue, using the time In which they ordlnnrlly sleep In the rccltntlon of the Psalms and In other special prayers Those uho go home for the night will return to the svnagogues about 6 o'clock tomorrow morning nnd remain there until about C In t le evening. In the reform temples the services are shorter and several recesses are declared. The fast will be broken by the blast of the Shoffar or tlie long blow from the ram's horn, after the final service at Mindown tomorrow. In this city the demand for seats In tlie svnagogues Is so great that large halls In different parts of the city nr converted Into improvised synagogues.
