Mowery, of Dunmore, Pa., Visited New Orange Last Week and Make the Following Report: We take pleasure in saying that when we vis ited ?ov Orange, N. J., last week we found it in all respects as represented to us by Mr. Gray and Mi. Asherop, of Scranton. "We were taken through and about the prop erty by Mr. Long, and then we went alone so that we might learn all we could about it. Nearly all the ground is nicely situated for building purposes, the most of it is high and day and exceptionally line. A large mandolin factory is now in operation and a silk mill is being built. The railroad facilities are most excellent. A railroad has been built which runs nearly through the property connecting with the New Jersey Cen tral and Lehigh Valley railroads, and another has been surveyed and staked which will run across the property and connect with the Baltimore and Ohio, the Pennsylvania and the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroads, which are near by, and thus bring all these lines in competion in the transpor tation of freight. About, seventy-five houses are now erected or are under process of erection on the property. Streets have been graded through the property in different directions. College buildings on a most beautiful plot of ground are now being built, school and church hites have been secured and every thing points toward the growth of a large city. It would seem that with its natural nnd ac quired advantages Its proximity to New York and other large cities, the enterprise and push of the oflicers of the association, who are determined to build up a large place, the value of the property must increase rapidly, and those who purchase lots must reap the benefit of the rise Lots $325.00 Payable V., 1 1 v nv vx M XV O vn XV 9 v a XV 8 V. vu XV, XV V 5 VH XV p vx v NEW ORANGE IfHJiM ASSOCIATION 308-309 Mears Bullrtin?, Scranton, Pa. a xvxv XVXVXVXVVXVXVXVXVXVXVXVXVXVXVXVXVXVXrfXVXVXVfe Vx-fcVXVXVX wi m ta . i-rm made by J.

At tho Academy of Music this after noon tho Miles Ideal Stock company will present "A Heart of Gold," and tonight "Now Mexico." Tho Circus Girl. An American beauty, a born com edienne, such Is tho title bestowed up on Miss Minnie Ashley who plays tho part of Dora WemysH in Augustln Daley's production of "The Clrcua Girl." Nature gifted her for the part, nnd under careful training of Augustln Daly's management she has success fully reached a condition of advance ment which places her ns one of the brightest and youngest comediennes on the American stango. "The Circus Girl' with all her glitter will appear at the Lyceum Theatre Thursday even ing. February 2. "Tho Countess Valcska." "The Countess Valcsko" has proved to be by far the most successful and profitable effort Miss Julia Marlowe has yet made. In New York, Philadel phia and other cities it was hailed with enthusiastic appreciation. The extraordinary reception the play hart had Is undoubtedly duo to Miss Mar lowe's splendid work and to tho high romantic Interest and dramatic Intm slty of the play. Tho success Is ex tremely gratifying to till friends ot serious and sincere effort on the stage. Miss Marlowe's personal triumph must also be very Mattering to her. It Is not generally known that the management, staging, and, Indeed tho discovery of Valeska werj entirely her own work, and she rehearsed and drilled her com pany In even the minutest detail, so that she nlone Is responsible for tho notable flawless production. "Tho Countoss Valcska" will bo presented by Miss Marlowe at the Lyceum Theatre Friday evening, February 3d. Burlesque at tho Gaiety. Th? Zero Burlesque company which begins a three-nights engagement at the Gaiety tomorrow needs no in troduction to our theatre-goers.

The programme offered this year Is a surprise and revelation to all and a big hit everywhere, among tho specialists appearing on the bill are the Meeker Baker trio: Misses St. John and Lvt ton, Madden nnd McCarthy: Fish and Quigg; Misses "Ward and Wood, and LIUlo Jerome. With such a strong at traction at the Gaiety tho indications ate that big houses will prevail throughout the engagement ot this company. TUB STOMACH'S WOKS.

Tho nvcrnge reces sion In Btock values today was fractional, lhero wob no ptonouncfd pressure to rell as was shown by tho diminished voluina of business. There wero transactions In about three-quarters of a million shares which formerly would have been con sldctcd a large day's business but, whlcn Is tho smallest amount traded In, In somo tlmu for a full day's Fesslon. London continued a mudcrato Feller on balance and tho market showed alternate spells of strength and weakness. Tho traders wero free sellers ot tho opening and prices ran oft fractionally except for dealings ot a point and over hi Heading tlrst pre icrrcd, New York Central and Tcnnessoo Coal and Iron. Buying orders appeared In various directions nnd thoro was a number of recoveries from 1 to 2 points. A decllno In Heading llrst preferred ns on minors that tho coal deal was not de veloping as well as a vigorous bear at tack which was irtlculurly directed ngnlnst Sugar caused that stock to drop 4 points fiom the highest prices which It had attained on a continuance on talk of somo arrangement with the Glucoso fougar Helming company. The facts con cerning ho company's Intention nro known of course only to the Insiders. Generally speaking the market went tnroiiRii the process of digesting recent realizing sajes nnd speculative Interest wits largely centered in specialties. To tal Bales were 780,900 shares. Cnrrington & Co's Letter. The market ooencd fractionally lower with tho exception of Federal Steel, pre ferred. London wus a free seller at tho opening nnd commission houses liquidated long stock. After tho llrst hnlf hour, tho list rallied led by Central Pacific. South ern Pacific, Southern Hallway, preferred, Cotton Oil and Son Francisco llrst and second preferred. Tho rally extended to nbout noon hour, when the buying pow er, showing signs of exhaustion, traders acnln sold tho list. For tlmo being tho market, wo think, will bo Inclined to be feverish and Bhow evidences of profit tnklng. The street profesrlonals aro In clined to sell the list short nnd unless renewed buying develops tho inarkot will bo lower. Hatlllcntlon of tho peaco treaty comes upon Tuesday of next week and until this measure is finally acted upon, tho market Is liable to continue firm but at tho same time wo think It prudent tn take, prollts on oil strong ad vances. Tho situation while strongly bullish from the neneral outlook, and while there Is still the greatest confidence both In the Immediate present and the ultimata future, yet the advance has been so continuous and the reaction so fractional that on the probability alono n lair set-back should take place. Tho most significant feature, to our mind Is the gradual falling off In tho volumo of business Indicating that nl tho moment the outside buying Is come to a halt. London Is changing speculation from our srcuiitles Into those of other groups dealt In on their mnrkot nnd shows very little disposition to follow our prices fur ther. In our opinion, specialties will bo the order of the day for somo time to come, and It Is merely a question of pick ing out a special stock which shows evi dences of buying bought for a rise. On nil weak spots Federal Steel prefenvd, Central Pacific. Southern Pacific. Head ing llrst preferred, Ontario nnd Western and Southern Hallway, preferred, can be bought with safety.
