There Is no more useful and success ful work ever carried on within the borders of this state than that of the Pennsylvania State Sabbath School as sociation. In its list of officials and managers are found the names of many distinguished men who have been long ldcn titled with this kind of Christian work. The thirty-first annual conven tion of the association was held In AVllliamsport Tuesday. AS'ednesday and Thursday. Great preparations wero made for the rweptlon of delegates and marvagement of the convention. Tht speakers were from among the most successful workers within the limits of the state and outside of it. The sinking was Inspiring, under the leadi of 'Professor 'Sweeney and others, and a general uplift from the gathering was certain. The recovd of the asso ciation during the past year had been iiotter than ever before, nnd the inter est 1n the association more widely ex tended. Three Pulpits Vacant. It Is somewhat remarkable that three leading pastors of Baptist churches have resigned within a few weeks of each other. First, Rev. AV. G. Partridge goes from the Penn Avenue Baptist church. Next, Rev. T. J. Collins re signs from the Scranton Street Baptist-church, and now Dr. D. C. Hughes, the scholarly pastor of the Jackson street church, has severed his. connec tion with that church and returned to New York, w here his work was so suc cessful. Neither one of the churches have settled upon a new pastor. The sacrament of the Lord's supper will be administered at the First Pres byterian church tomorrow morning.

The music of the church also Is of the best, and fhe chorus choir seems to be composed of those who know their responsibility, for all the members are always In their places. The Washburn Street Presbyterian church Intends to have some of the best music. In the city. During the past three months they have had a very fine quartette, and now a -chorus choir Is to be tidiiud. tinder the direction: of Tallle Morgan.

The transactions were only 137,907 shares, of which 31.300 were Chicago Gas, 12,800 Burlington and Qulncy, 10,800 St, Paul and 10.400 Sugar. In the early trading on favorable Sugar reports prices moved up. Rather sensational reports from Chicago about the freight situation In the west led to a reactionary movement In the rail way list shortly after the opening, and) the gain noted was soon lost. Sugar, Leather, Cotton Oil and To bacco were generally lower. The mar ket closed firm, .but without animation. The range of today's prices for the ac tive stocks of the New York stock mar ket are given below. The quotations are furnished The Tribune by G. du B.
