Jill: OLD OAK.
For The Tribune. ,
Oh, aged Oak! grim relic of the past,
Arrayed in hoary grandeur bleak nnd
ba re,
Through thy fantastic, limbs the cruel
blast
Shrieks with frenzied fury tho weird
glare;
Of lightning, vivid, streaks athwart the
air;
Kxulitlng In thy anguish, deep nnd sore;
Hurling a branch with each succeeding
flare.
Thus to the ground the fiery Antilles bore
My ancient, trusty friend who fell, to rise
no more.
Oh, fallen Oakl once thou didst proudly
rear
Thy lenferowned branches to tho sum
mer ulty,
And oft the storm's wild fury thou didst
bea r
As with a roar It swept so swiftly by.
Shrieking with gk-e to sweep tho moun
tains high.
Or clothe tho fragrant field with wild
despair,
And wake the hollow caves with startling
cry.
And left thee,, noble Onk, so tall and
fair,
Unmnlmcd, to grow again thy wonted
way
A home for weary pilgrims at the close
of day, .
Oft to thy grateful shade I pensive
strolled, "
When morning, lovely nymph on dewy
wing,
Ope'd the great gates of light, with keys
of gold
To hold communion with my Ood and
King.
Or haply listen to the voice of spring;
Irs tuneful numbers kiss thn morning air
Diffusing life and Joy to everything;
And wafting . fragrant 'Incense every
where, X--, ; .;. . .
Arranged .In flowery robes, so beautiful
and fair, k
Thus, llko tho 'Oak, f, In youth's golden
vale: '
So fanciful. and free with flery.glow.
And gestures Wild' defy the howling gale
Filled Willi, my strength, and far too
proud to bow. 'i -' , ' i
But ago will .come snd furrow, o'er my
brow '
Deep-rooted wrinkles filled with morbid
- gloom;'
And denth, . triumphant, with one mighty
blow,
Will hurl my body to the gaping tomb
Or haply, strike me now. In. all my youth
and bloom. " . Geo. W. Bowen.

From the Elmlra daiette.
Do you know Mr. 3. 8. Dodder, of 214
South Mainstreet? He has been a business
man and permanent resident of Elmlra for
over twenty years. . A man whose state
ment cannot be disputed. Well, Mr. Rod
der's cose in a nutshell Is that he has
been a sutTcrer from kidney disorders,
but doesn't suffer any more. We will let
him tell what has brought about the
change. Hero is how he spoke of his
case to our representative: "f have
never been well since the closing of the
war, where. In the service of my coun
try, I contracted kidney and bladder dis
orders. The complaint has gradually
been growing on me. I had sharp pains
In the small of my back, just back of the
hips, and when they left It was only to
bo followed by a dull, heavy pain which
remained continually. 1 could lie in but
ono or two positions In bed or the pain
would be almost unbearable. I was
ulways very sore over the kidneys, and
tho urine emitted a strong odor. At
times I felt existenco a task. I tried
this, that and the other thing, to no
avail, and was on the verge of giving up
entirely when I saw Uoau's Kidney Pills
iidvertlaed. I thought uu a Inst resort I
would give them a trial: they were
highly recommended, and I would use
just this one more remedy. I began
taking them, und 1 inn very gluJ Indeed
to glvo my statement, tliut suffering
humanity may receive the same benefit
I have. A few doses of Dean's Kidney
Pllhi satlslled mo they were helping nie.
Now, tho pain is all gone, und I am en
tirely well tills, after years of sickness.
My sleep ut night la good and refreshing.
I do not feel any more that tired feeling
I used to on rising, ull thanks duo to
lmnu's Kidney Pills."

THE WORLD OF BUSINESS
STOCKS AM) BONDS.
New York. 'Sept. 20. The railway and
miscellaneous speculation was very ir
regular today. At the opening the mar
ket was strong owing to the slightly
lower rates of sterling exchange; u be
lief that but little gold would be for
warded to Europe tomorrow and Unully
to un Impression that the trunk line
and Central Tralllc associations at their
meeting today would form a new orga
nization fur the (better maintenance of
rates nnd reduction of expense. This
caused a general advance of to 1,
and at the top notch there was consid
erable covering of shorts. The stocks
most prominent In the early rise were
the Grangers, iSouthwestcrns, anthra
cite coalers, Louisville and Nashville,
Tennessee Coal and Iron. The railway
list held its advance pretty well and
as a rule prices closed M, to Hi per
cent, higher on the day. The Indus
trials were active and feverish through
out. Chicago Gas bounded up to 71 ',4
In the first hour, then sold back to
67H and closed at 67. The rise
brought out long stock and the after
noon decline was partly due to this
selling. Sugar rose to 108 and
dropped to 104alO5;'.. Leather, Gen
eral Electric and Lead were notably
firm. In the last hour the general list
was a shade easier. The Industrials
made net losses on th day of to 2
per cent. General Electric and Leather
preferred were exceptions and gained
a per cent.

tivo stock of the New York stock mar

Other Narcotic substance. It Is a harmless substitute
for Paregoric, Drops, Soothing Syrup, and Castor Oil.
It is Pleasant. Its guarantee is thirty years' use by
Hillions of Mothers. Castorla destroys Worms and allays
fevcrishness. Castorla prevents vomiting Sour Curd

Do. O. C. Odoood,

Castorla Is the best remedy for children of

anthracite locomotive, which pulled
four passenger coaches. The distance
is 90 66-100 miles. The steam pressure
was 120 pounds, while the pressure
on the secent trial was 200 pounds and
the weight of the engine was doubled.
Kngineer John Hogan, of the Heading,
made the run in 85 minutes.
The high water mark In Iron and
steel has been touched and the prices
have begun to recede. On Thursday
Hessemer pig dropiied from $17.50 to $17
and steel billets from $24.50 and $23 to
$24.25 and $24.50. This Is the first de
cline s-ince priees began to rise lust
December. A further decline Is very
probable, as prices were bultt up large
ly on the expectation of labor troubles.
The decline will be of some slight bene
fit to tin plate and steel plate manu
facturers. President Walters, of the "Delaware.
Susquehanna and -Schuylkill railroad,
who has been spending the summer
months In Europe, Is expected
to arrive nt Drifton on Sun
day. -Speculation Is already rife
ns to who will succeed the lamented
Lanlel Coxe as superintendent of tha

kill. Among the names mentioned are
those of A. F. Harager and James F.
Sweeney. Well Informed railroad men,
however, are of the opinion that It will
be an entire Ktranger. A meeting of
the directors will likely be held next
week, when the matter will be dls
potted of.
Preparations are on foot for putting
the whole plant of the Maryland Steel
company, at Sparrow's Point, Aid., Into
operation. It Is expected that the
works will be In full blast by.Junuary
next. As is well known, 'this is a
branch of the Pennsylvania Steel com
pany, nnd the works have been Idle,
or partially so, since that company got
Into di'Ilculty some years ago. The
plant Is an entirely modern one, and
is one of the largest In tho country.
When In full operation the works have
n capacity of 1,000 tons of pig Iron
per day. or .T.O.OO"! tons per annum,
and iiOO.i'OO pteel rails per annum. The
pay rolls will bear the names of 3.W0
employees when work Is fully resumed.
In commenting upon the railroad sit
uation. General Manager Joseph Wood,
of the Pennsylvania company, Is
quoted as saying that the business of
the Pennsylvania lines was good and
promised to be so for some time to
come because of the revival of other
Industrie!!, more especially the Iron and
coal Industries. Mr. Wood expressed
himself as pleased with the manner the
several divisions had handled the
heavy passenger traflic of late, the ex.
emption from accident to passengers
and damage to equipment being re
markable. He does not take so rosy
a view of the outlook for business as
some oflicials do, but expressed the
opinion that both passenger anrl
freight traflic will be heavier this fall
and winter than in the fall and winter
of IM.
