prize they were parting' with. There
are two varieties of coins of that date,

the date and rays diverging around
the iflgure of .the American eagle, and

arrows were added to distinguish tho
one from tho other.

The Impediment to pedestrians which
The Tribune spoke of In a recent issue,
as existing In front of a Church street

glass sign, In which photographs are
displayed, has been anchored to tho
strips of wood. There Li plenty of room
In Montrose which could be used for
advertising without utilizing the side
walks for that purpose. Why Is It al
lowed? A small cose could be hung or
placed In the stairway leading to the
photographer's. The owner of the
building is at fault for allowing such
a nuisance the photographer Is all
right.

a tale one of the oldest dentist In Mon

Mexico produces anything that can be

The Massachusetts board of conciliation
and arbitration reports that the strikes In
that state last year were numerous, but
generally unsuccessful, and that those
called successful entailed more loss than
gain to the workmen. The results of arbi
tration were favorable to all concerned,
but It seems that both parties to a labor
controversy will seldom agree to so calm
and reasonable a method of settling a dis
pute. Speed without smoke or cinders is what
muster mechanics are seeking to accom
plish with locomotives. The experiment
on the lialtimore and Ohio In burning coko
In the engines hauling the fast express
trains overthe trons-Ohlodlvlslon has beon
a success thus far. The trains have made
the time, and the annoying smoke and
cinders wero conspicuous by their ab
sence. Should the testB continue satisfac
tory the passenger engines on the lialti

coke.
A scheme has been projected by W. H.
Andrews to transport noal 1n large quan
tities by piping. His project is to convey
coal from the Connellsville teglon to New
Castle, Youngstown, Sharon ami other
towns and cities throughout the Shenango
and Wheeling valleys through a giant pipe
line, and wherever It pays to transfer the
the coal Into coke, there to build coke
ovens. In order to drive tho coal through
the pipes and pumps It Is to be crushed
and diluted with water. Pumping stations
and reservoirs will be built at Intervals
along the line.
of all cases of consumption can, if taken In
the earlier stages of the disease, be cured.
This may seem like a bold assertion to
those familiar only with the means gener
ally in use for its treatment ; as, nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy emulsions, extract
of malt, whiskey, different preparations of
bypophosphitcs and such like palliatives.
Although by many believed to be incura
ble, there is the evidence of hundreds of
living witnesses to the fact that, in all its
earlier stages, consumption is a curable
disease. Not every case, but a large per
centage of cases, ami we believe, fully pi
percent, are cured by Dr. 1'ierce'a i.omen
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering
couch with copious expectoration (includ
ing tubcrctilar matter), great loss of flesh
and ex ire ute emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to its as cured by " Golden Med
ical Discovery " were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease ? You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been sa pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial of "Golden Medical Discovery,"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, iu curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions" and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and bad either utterly failed to bene
fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for
short time. Kxlract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the ltypophos
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of a large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of 160
pages which will be mailed to you, on re
ceipt of address and six cents in stamps.
You can then write those cured and learn
their experience. -

STOCKS AM) BONDS.
New York, April S. The stock market
was irregular and choppy today. At the
opening a weak tone characterised the
trading. The loss In the prices of tho
Grangers, however, was unimportant, and
at the close these Issues were very little
below yesterday's figures. As a rule aftor
the opening the market became strong,
Sugar was again a feature. The price
opened at 102 .fell to 101, rose to 102,
and receded to 101, a net loss of fop the
day. General Electric was heavy, falling
from K4 to 33'i. Humor had It that the an
nual report now due will not be favorable
and that tho chances of an amlcablo
agreement with the Westtnghouie wero
not as good as a week ago. The heaviness
of the stock finally affected the general
list and In the last hour there was an in
creased pressure to sell and prices fell H
a. the anthracite coalers being especially
weak. The market closed Irregular but
in tho main weak. Net changes show
losses of iu2 per cent., General Electric
leading. Total sales were laS.OOO shares.
