TOWANDA. v'elsh Brothers gave Towanda peo ple an excellent course of two dny per formances Friday and Saturday, and despite the rainy weather the tent was crowded at each performance. The trapeze, juggling and other feats were up-to-date without exception. Special notice is worthy of Professor Mohr's trained ponies nnd dogo which cannot be beaten by any trainer. The concert was also excellent and the soprano singing by George Boies was alone worth the whole admission fee.

POPULAR READING OF THE DAY Recent Literature That Scranton People Most Crave. The Now Among Books, and How They Ars Selling. By Courtesy of Jonas Long's Sons. Examine the shelves of the up-to-dato book store of today, and you will find much that Is worth reading. Go back to the debut of Dr. S. Weir Mitchell's famous "Hugh Wynne" and come gradually down to tho newest erase, "The Grey House on the Quarries," and you will find much that Is interest ing. High class reading is the boon of Scrantonians no moru aptly illustrated than by the crowds who constantly surround the book counters. Go into the big department store on a rainy day, when shoppers who arc gathered there cannot get out that Is, If they are taken unawares, nnd you will find a large percentage of them scanning the literature of the day. And how tastes differ! Tho greatest selling book of the year In this particular store hqs been Henry Slenklewlcz's famous "Quo Vadls," over a thousand copies having been disposed of. But the snle of "Quo Vadls" has been nearly ap proached by that delightful bit of re ligious fiction, Sheldon's "In His Steps," which for a book so simple In treatise and character has had a phe nomenal sale. Barrle's "Little Minis ter," loo, has been setting the pace for other authors of light reading but the sale of this Scotch prose has been severely nffected by the failure of the publishing house who Issued the work. At present, It Is Impossible to buy the book. No book of Its class can npproach James Lane Allen's "Choir Invisible" in point of verdure nnd fine English, and no book published nt Its price has com manded so great a sale. Out of ono of the simplest of romances is woven a love tale that Is tho embodiment of smoothness nnd clear detail. Kate Douglass Wiggln's new "Penelope's Progress" has proved to be a trade winner, as has also that delightful pas toral story of Maria Louise Poole's, "The Red Bridge Neighborhood." The latter In particular Is a book that should grace every library. Among tho other books which find much favor among Scrantonians are Richard Hard ing Davis' two stories, "Soldiers' of For tune," nnd "The King's Jackal": An thony Hope's "Prisoner of Zenda" and "Rupert of Hentzau." In the case of both of these writers, however, their first treatises seem to be the best nnd most sought after. Students fond of dialect will find In Paul Dunbar's "Folks From Dixie" the Idealization of their warmest hopes, while others who prefer something more choice and heavy should not fall to scan Mrs, Humphrey Ward's "Helbeck of Bannls dale," and Emlle Zola's latest effort, "Paris." Of the standard books for which there is always a demand, new editions recently published are worthy of men tion. The most prominent of these Is a popular priced collection In handv pocket volume size of the works of E. P. Roe and Amelia E. Barr, nnd also a standard sized edition of the same at a popular price. The famous "Elsie Dlnsmore" books for girls and the "Henty" books for boys have also out lived their copyrights and find places on the shelves at popular prices. In deed the time may well be said to have come when the cost of books' cannot be made an excuse for being without reading. THIRTY-SECOND NATIONAL EN CAMPMENT OF G. A. R. AT CIN CINNATI, O.

Wall Street Review. New York, A'ug. 22. The stock mar ket resumed Its familiar character of the greater part of last week today with tho exception thnt the early strength of stocks was not fully re covered nt any time subsequently. In fnct tho closing was rather easy In tone, prices being sustained with ap parent difficulty nt a point decidedly below tho best, but somewhat above tho lowest. In the Grangers tho open ing prices were the best at a level of about 1 to 1 above tho buoyant top prices of Friday nftcrnoon. Tho realiz ing sales In the first hour were very heavy, and In splto of tho largo out side demand tho prices of tho Grangers melted nway beforo tho profit taking sales. Tho tono of tho group was somewhat heavy for the rest of tho day though St. Paul rallied abdVc 113 before tho close. Tho Pacific stocks also showed evidence of profit taking. There wdro numerous extraordinary prlco movements In special stocks, Minne sota Iron covering a range of 11 points and Illinois Steel about 5 points In ef forts to adjust proportion of valuation on tho consolidation. International Paper stock was up 11 points nnd Con solidated Gas had a break of about 10 points. Cotton oil advanced, 4U and the perferred DVfc, nnd perferred gained nlmost 3 points and lost It nil. These were extreme movements nnd there were subsequent reactions and recov eries, Manhattan was consistently weak and People's Gas was raided down 2 points by the bears, but after wards fully recovered. The railroad list generally held very firm In spite of the unsettling Influence of weakness In the specialties and profit taking In tho Grangers, many stocks showing gains ranging up to a point or over. Tho total sales were G11.40O shares. Furnished by WILLIAM LINN ALLBN & CO., stock brokers, Mears' building, fooms TOG-TOO. Open- High- Low- Clos ing, est. est. lng. Am. Cot. Oil 33H syi-4 3S 304 Am.
