Cornwall ore banks.
It 1 estinuvted that under the three
lays' mining arrangement the May
pri.Kluc.tlon will reach 3,500,000 tons.
While the sales agents have been trying
to ngree upon the May tonnage, the
Keudlng during the last week In April
materially added to its tonnage for
that month by sending to market 253,
491 tons, an Increase of 35,912 over the
corresivondlng week of 1S94. The ship
ments from the Wyoming region were
37M.341 tons, a decrease of 43,563 ton,
and from the Lehigh region, 136,701
tons, a decrease of l.GIS tons over the
corresponding week of lust year.
New York Sun: The agreement be
tween the anthracite coal companies,
though covering only a short period, Is
another encouraging development. It
can logically be accepted as evidence
that the managers of those companies
ore reluctant to engage In an open war
fare which would be disastrous to all.
The solution of the problem presented
by the anthracite situation is compli
cated, but not lmiwsslble, and the In
terests Involved are so large that It
seems reasonable to expect that In due
time fhe desire for substantial returns
upon the capital invested In the Indus
try will result In an adjustment of pres
ent differences.
The force In the oar shoia of the
Philadelphia, Reading and New Eng
land rond, at Hartford, Is being In
creased, and the section gangs tire

More than 1,000 tons of new GO-pound
steel rail9 have been bought to lay
the extended runs and heavy grades.
The Iron and steel trade continues
In a state of expectancy, for the actual
developments In the business are slow
in coining. A larger demand is talked
of, but the big orders do not seem to
be placed; higher prices are awaited
for, but consumers prefer to do with
out material for the present rather
than pay any advance over tho prices
that have ruled recently. Meanwhile,
the situation. Is complicated by reports
of combinations of coke manufactur
ers, iron ore producers and workmen
to advance the price of raw materials
or of labor.

STROUDSBURG.
A meeting concerning the interests of
the Delaware Valley Electric railroad
was recently held In Stroudsburg.
Those present were Messrs. Coolboough
and Peters, the receivers; Frcldberger,
the president of the road; Rockwell,
president of the Middletown and Goshen
Traction company; Attorneys Storm,
Staples, Shull, Palmer, Engineer Car
rlck and K. Arborgast. When Judge
Craig revoked the order for an olilcial
sale, on the statement that the road
would be sold by April 30 and the
money paid over to the receivers by that
date, providing the creditors would be
willing to sign an agreement to take 50
per cent, of their claims, it was under
stood that if the sale was not affected
by the date fixed, in all probability legal
action would be taken looking to an
official public sale by the proper au
thorities. This meeting was held to get
a further extension of time, as there Is
yet a probability of a private sale on
the above terms being made. It was
represented by the Intending purchasers
that they had not had sufficient time
to perfect ail their arrangements and
that the best Interests of all concerned
would be conserved by a private sale.
Tt Is understood the price offered by:the
Middletown and Goshen people was
$12,000. Their statements and argu
ments were favorably considered by
those present, and it was deemed best
by all those in attendance to grant the
extension of time, providing it was In
accord with the desires of the creditors.
The receivers say they will be guided
by the wishes of those having claims
against the road, In all their actions,
but private conference with one of them
leads to the view that in his opinion, a
private sale, if It can be affected, is best
for all concerned.

Bicyclers are kicking, with a good
show of reasoning, against the borough
ordinance that prohibits the use of side
walks to wheelmen, but allows refuse of
every sort to bo dumped Into the street
to the Imminent danger of puncturing
tires. The sidewalks are not a proper
place for wheels, but riders are not so
much to blame for taking refuge upon
them when tho street is lined with
toroken glass, old tin cans, bits of wire
and other trash. The borough authori
ties ought to put a stop to the throwing
of such things into the street.

iervoiBsness
Is only another naino for impure
blood, for no person is weak and ncr
Vouh whoso blood is perfectly pure.
When tho blood is full of tho jrerins
of disenso, nnd lacking in tho red cor
puscles which pivo it vitality, when it
fails to properly nourish tho organs
nnd tissues of tlio body, what can you
expect but that tired feeling and ner
vousness? Of courso Scrofula, Salt Rheum,
Catarrh and llheuniatism arc uni
versally recognized us blood diseases,
for which Hood's Snrenparilla, ns tho
best blood purilier, is everywhere
acknowled the greatest remedy.
Therefore, as Hood's Sursuparilla
cures all blood diseases, it is tlio best
remedy for that condition of tho blood
which causes Nervousness.
It is a falso idea to think you are
curing your nervousness when you
fire taking ft preparation which only
quiets your nerves! It is like trying to
"drown" your sorrows in tlio flowing
bowl. They aro sure to return.
Wo wish to make most imoresslvo,
then, this truism:
You cannot purify your blood by
peadkninu or ql'ietinu your nerves
with opiate, narcotic, or nerve com
pounds. If you tuko such articles
you uro only trtflino with your
troubles. There is sukk to bo a itEAo
tion which will leave you worse than
you were before.
Why not then, take tho true course,
follow the bee-lino to tho stato of
health, purify your blood and cure
your Nervousness by taking
