Wall Street Review.
New York. May 8. As on yesterday
the stock market was one or specialties,
the Industrials figuring for the bulk of
the business transacted. The total
sales were only 103.U3 shares and In
this small total Tobacco led with 15.200
shares. Leather preferred followed
with 13.400 and Bay State Gas was
third with 7.100 shares. Tobacco was
weak throughout and under steady
pressure of stock for both accounts fell
from 68t to 6TS7K. Leather pre
ferred on the other hand was Arm on
rather vague reports that the director
Intended declaring a dividend shortly.
Kay State Gas started oft with a rise of
li per cent, to S3, fell to 31 and rallied
to 3'jJi31. Ijtclede Go and Rubber
were heavy. The former broke 3 to
25 on a false rumor that the ease In
volving the charter of the company had
been decided against It. Later on a
rally to 17 4 ensued. Rubber common
dropped li to 23 and the preferred 3
to mVi. the announcement that ex
Presldent Branlgan has organised an
opposition company having Induced
further liquidations. Cotton OH com
mon and preferred were higher on the
statement that the directors had de
clared the regular semi-annual divi
dend of 3 per cent, on the latter. The
usually active railway list showed no
change of Importance although the ten
dency of prices was downward. Lon
don operations were insignificant, but
local traders were disposed to espouse
the short side of the account because of
the engagement of gold for Thursday's
freight charges for carrying gold by the
trans Atlantic lines will not check ex
ports of the metal, so shippers say.
Speculation closed dull. Net changes
show losses of ,4Vi per cent. In the
raiway list and ',) per cent. In the
Industrials, Rubber preferred leading.
Cotton OH preferred gained U per cent,
on the day.

An Old.iimer Cured After Using
Tobacco Twenty Three Years.
He Gains Twenty Pounds
in Thirty Days.
Lake Geneva, Wl. Special.) The
ladies ot our beautiful little town are
making It Interesting for tobacco-using
husbands, since the injurious effect of
tobacco and the ease with which it can
be cured by No-To-Bac have been
plainly demonstrated by the cure of
Mr. F. C. Walte. In a written state
ment he says: "I smoked and chewed
tobacco for twenty-three years, and
my case wa one of the worst in this
part of the country. Even after I
went to bed at night, I woke up to
chew or smoke. It was killing me and
my wife was also ailing from the Inju
rious ell ects. Two boxes of No-To-Bac
cured me, and I have no more desire
for tobacco than I have to Jump out of
the window. I have gained twenty
pounds In thirty days, my wife Is well,
and we are Indeed both happy to say
that No-To-Bac la truly 'worth Its
weight In gold,' "
Mr. Waite's cure is looked upon as a
miracle. It Is the talk of the' town and
county, and over a thousand tobacco
users will use No-To-Bac. The pecu
liarity about No-To-Bac Is that the
makers authorise every druggist In
America to absolutely guarantee three
boxes to cure or refund the money, and
the cost Is so trilling, compared with
the expensive use ot tobacco, that tobacco-using
husbands have no excuse
to offer when their wives Insist upon
their taking No-To-Bac, gaining pure,
sweet breath, new mental and physical
powers and a practical revltallzn tlon of
their nlcotined nerves. No-To-Bac not
only cures the tobacco habit but re
stores vitality and nerve vigor. It Is
Indeed a miracle worker for weak men.

the Scranton Diocesan union will becrln
at Precland and contlnu in session for
two days. The union includes all of
the Father Mathew societies In this
part of the state, the greater pact of
which will be represented by delegate.
It Is felt that the movement Is not
as strong; and vigorous within the con
fines of the Scranton union at this time
as It should be, and steps will probably
be taken at the approaching convention
to cause a revival of interest In temper
ance work. Officers are to be chosen
and delegates to the national conven
tion elected. John J. O'Hara, of Par
sons, the present president, may be re
elected, but Charles Lavin, of Wllkes
Barre, Frank McCafterty, of Jermyn,
and M. J. O'Toole, of this city, are also
mentioned fur the office.
On the night prec-dlng the conven
tion a rally will be held under the aus
pice of Freeland society, ut which
time the latter' new hall will be form
ally dedicated. J. Washington Logue,
of Philadelphia, will be the orator of
the occasion. The Frecjand total ab
stainers are maicing extensive arrange
ments for the entertainment of the dele
gates to the convention.
ENTERTAINMENT AT Y. W. C A.
Marked the Closa of the Physical Culture
l)er"r"n"t.
A large audience gathered at Young
Women's Christinn association hall on
Washington avenue last nlnht to at
tend the closing exerclse.3 of the- gym
nasium. The room was tastefully dec
orated with red and white, the associa
tion colors. An instrumental selection
on Mano and violin by Messrs. Doer
sam and Kiple opened the entertain
ment, and then came the Pizzisoti
chorus by the children's class of th 1
"gym." The little ones went through a ;
series of exercises on the parallel bars
and also gave flue exhibitions of vault
ing and body movements. The mem- i
hers of the ladies' class went through
the Swedish drill end Mefsrs. Dcvrsivm
and Kiple were again heard on piano
and violin.
The evening's entertainment closed
with a lecture on "Michael An
gelo," by Attorney A. V. Bower. It
was Illustrated by eighty steroptlcon
views taken from the best examples of
art In the galleries of Europe the orig
inals of which were nearly all studied
by Mr. Bower. The performance of the
members of the "gym" demonstrated
the good work that Miss Janet Adams,
the physlclal directress, has been doing
In that department.
