The Green IUdge Iron works are
working full time owing to the great
demand for railroad spikes.
A number of boys are wanted at 'the
Scranton Glass works, on Green IUdge
street. The company has large orders
on hand.
Paul Dunn, contractor, of the Trib
une building, has left for Morrirtown,
N. J., where he has secured a contract
for .macadamizing 'thirteen miles of
road.
Contractor James Simpson Is in the
city making arrangements for the erec
tion of the silk mills on the South
Side. The foundations for the brick
work will be ready this week, and It Is
anticipated that the mills will be com
pleted wkhin three months.
E. S. Pratt has transferred the plant
of the Elmlra Cash Register company
to this city, and has secured a large
store room ait Green Ridge. The com
pany's offices are at 312 Washington
avenue. The demands for the registers
are very brisk, and each article has the
word "Scranton" Impressed upon It In
a prominent position.
A compilation has been made by the
Financial Chronicle of the gross earn
ings of 125 railroads during the month
of April. The comparison with April
last year is favorable In spite of the
fact 'that there were five Sundays last
month and only four the year before.
The gross earnings were t36.S98.665, an
Increase of t1 S39.344 or 4.65 per cent.
compared with the same month last
year.
The Reading organs are talking quite
confidentially, these days. This Is how
the Philadelphia Press talks, apropos
of the report tha't New York capitalists
have bought large holdings of Reading:
"If the New York people were to get a
majority of the stock and come here
next January and vote Mr. Harris out
it would net give them control of Read
ing. Tha't thing has been done In the
par t. The Botid-Oowen contest was ex
actly parallel and Receiver Gowen,
when he was beaten for president. Bald
he would see that President Bond's
duties were limited to signing the an
nual passes, and they were. There Is
only one way 'to get control of Reading
and that la to raise the money neces
sary to reorganize the company. Until
the New York people do this their sug
gestions of control and great things
will net be listened lo outside of Wall
Krett and the Reading company will
continue In li position of master of
the anthracVte coal trade. There la a
way by which tle New York coal com
panies can settle 'the coal trade dispute
Instantly and thai la by dividing 79 per
cent, of the amthraclto tonnage among
themselves. This Is the situation."

All Her Ufa -Happy Reloat at List
of Miss Alice Young, Who Re.
tides at 302 Alexander Street,
Rochester, N. Y.
(From the P.ochester Democrat andChron-
tele.)
Our representative was received very
pleasantly at 392 Alexander street, by Miss
Allco Young, who told how since childhood
she had been held In the bondage of pnln
from her back, never remembering the
tlmo that she had not suffered pain or
aches In the region of the kidneys. Many
wera the means she used to find relief, but
there seemed no remedy for her case and
she remained a captive; then along comes
these little enemies to backache, J loan's
Kidney Pills, nnd a half box releases the
bonds, as one by one the aches and palm
dlsapponr, she finds herself a slave to
pain no more, by their continued use. She
says: "1 Was entirely relieved of all my
suffering and now I am perfectly strong,
healthy and well."
"How did you take this romedyr Miss
Youni was asked by our representative.
She "replied that she followed directions
explicitly. Miss Young then told how the
malady affoctod her. saying nor symptoms
wero: "Stooping, bending over, walking
or standing any length of time always
gave me a pain In tho small or my back,
I had a pain In the kidneys all the time
and If I caught cold It would always sottle
there; the pain I suffered was of a very ex
hausting nature; at night I could only lie
flat on my back, any other position caus
ing pain and suffering; the nerves passing
up my back wero affected and this brought
with It severe headaches, but aa I said be
fore, Doan's Kidney Pills have removed
all pain and suffering entirely and I never
felt bettor and healthier In my life."
Doanii Kidney Pills are for sale by all
dealers, price SO cents, mailed by Foster-

Munti-ose has fails just 'the same as
most provincial towns. Among the
noticeable Is the wearing of sweaters
by men. Tho sweater la usually worn
at gymnasiums, when one desires ito
get "warmed up;" at bicycle races as
preventive of cold and protection be
fore and after a race, and In the ath
letic Held In the same, manner, but
where, oh! where In Christendom, save
In Montrose, are 'they worn dally while
pursuing .the ordinary vocation of life
the store, ottlce and shop? Why this
Undue exertion for persplra'tlon?
Jud. North Is a horseshner, and a
good one. He does not profess) to at
tainments in the science of manly art,
but he Is as powerful as a lion, and
while there Is no chestnut tree In front
of his blacksmith shop, 'there Is a large
bed of cinders which have heated shoe
upon shoe that Judson might strike
when the Iron was hot. A certain toller
at tho forge of a South Montrose es
tablishment, Miller by name, halls
from Scrar.'ton and beasts of his prow
ess as a puglllrt, the profession of a
blacksmith evidently trailing along
somewhere In the rear. Recently Jud.
was compelled to remove some shoes
from a team which had been shod by
the South Montrose smithy and re
marked, in his usual bon liomme man
ner, that they had evidently been put
on with a sledge hammer by a Dutch
shoemaker. In some way he of South
Montrose learned of the Ironical r?
marks and forthwith slung aside the
leather apron and buskins, girded him
self strong about the loins and came to
Montrose. Like the Romans of old he
had a herald accompany him to con
tinually cry, "Remember, thou art but
a man!" He entered the establishment
of Judson North and after a few mo
ments, during which time several In
sulting remarks were indulged in, he
was seen sailing south toward his
home. Mr. North, when seen by a
Tribune man, stated: "Yes, I did
throw him up In the air, but, for heav
en's sake, don't print It In the paper."

Tired Women
Should stop and consider the dangers
which threaten them because ot their
weakness, languor and lack of ambition.
Thousands of women find their strength
unequal to the demands of duty. And
yet there Is no escape from tho Incessant
round of care and toll. They must have
strength. How shall it bo given? By
building up their systems through puri
fied, enriched and vitalized blood.
Hood's Sarsaparilla will give thein
Btrength because it will make their blood
pure and enable it to feed the nerves upon
proper nourishment. It will create an
uppctlto, tone the stomach and invigorate
every organ. It is what tired women need.
