The plan of class 24 of the Broad
Street Methodist Kplscopnl church to
have extensive repairs made to the
church have received .i tevore set back.
For over a year the class ha been
hard at work raising funds for the
contemplated Improvements, and alto
gether over $3,000 has been secured.
Last week bids were opened for the
work, and It was found at least Jll.MO
would be requited, wheteas the class
had expected to have the work com
pleted for ti.OOrt. A meeting of tho
congregation was held tonight for the
purpose of discussing whether or not
It would be advisable to abandon the
plan for Improvements and erect a
new church. Many of the members
favor the Idea of a new building.
Rev. T. M. George and John 'C.rav
ell, eiT., have been elected delegates
from the Weli-h Congregational church
nt Plttston to attend the "gymanfa"
of the Welsh Congregational churches
of Hastern Pennsylvania, which takes

Rev. N'elson B. Hawiey, chairman of

who has been in town for the past
few days, says tho annual reunion

Saturday night, John Oruver, of Up
per Plttston, and a companion went
llshing In the river. They set an out
line near Fcovll's Island, and both lay
down on the bank and went to sleep.
When the other man awoke dining the
night he found C.ruver had disap
peared and the boat was nlMi mlsMng.
Just what became of the man and boat
Is a mystery. Friends and relatives
of Gruvr-r fear the worst, and they
were at work today dragging the river
In that vicinity, thinking lie may have
fallen Into tho water and been rirown
( d .N'j trace of the boat has been
found.
The new rapid transit load being

line as surveyed runs through the
property of Herman Smiley, and will
strike a portion of the barn on the
property. Smiley objects to the rail
way cutting away a poitbm of his
harn. The company has offered him
$500 for the portion of his property
they need, but he has refused, el. lim
ing that the company should purchase
his entlie property, which will be
riam-iged considerably by the close
proximity of the railway. He s-nys It
the company attempts to cut through
the barn lie will li.nc an Injunction

tion. The kind of people who are least able
to withstand hot weather aie the ones
with up.et Nerves They break down
during summer heat lose strength
nnd restless cannot sleep fidgety and
fretful mentally and physically. With
this class, heat seems to talrly flatten
out activity of mind and body produc
ing a languid, spiritless, exhausted con
dition. Its the action of Dr. A. W. Chase's
Nerve Pills In building up the Nervo
CentteR and setting In motion that
hidden current called Nervo Force,
which wo know exists, but the nature
of which we do not understand they
make this medicine so poifalur for
summer lassitudes and weakness.
Mr. Samuel Rogers, of No. l:'S Hyde

"I was In a inn down condition head
nehes, nervous nnd sleeping badly nnd

others. This I can do conscientiously."

HOPBOTTOM.
Special to the Scranton Tribune,
Hopbottom, Aug. 19. The down-pour
of rain which deluged this vicinity
Saturday afternoon has again con
verted tho streets of the city Into
rocky creek beds, and totally destroyed
some roads in the surrounding coun
try. Rain had been pouring down
steadily for about two hours, when
the two small streams which enter the
main stream from tho eastern hills
suddt nlv became roaring torrents, and
rog.udless of their every-day channels
pnurvl a deluge of ,ater down Main
street and another down Center htieet
finm the dliecllon of the milk depot.
Where bridges offered resistance to the
llnod of water theie were ne channels
formed, and mounds of earth, rock
and collected debris many feet high
now mark the location of tho bridges.
Moie than a hundred chickens were
drowned, and one two hundred pound
porker took a rough voyage without a
boat.
The railroad bed was badly dam
aged from hero several miles south, and
hundreds of men were Immediately
placed at work along tho linos. As a
result the noith-bound Hack was clear
ed by morning so that a few trains
were moed over that section of track
Sunday.
It is thought that one road leading to
Lenox will have to be abandoned en
tlrely, and a new road constructed else
where, the channels cut through being
many feet deep.
Two of the recently appointed teach
ers, Miss Jackson and Miss Waldle,
halng declined to arcept positions ten
dered them, the hoard on Friday even
ing appointed Miss Lillian Hyram and
Miss Bessie Tiffany to fill the vacan
cies. It Is safe to say that Hopbottom
now has the cheapest school of any
town In the county of Its size, the sal
aries paid ranging from $40 to $18 per
month. While a cheap school Is hardly
a matter for a community to take pride
In, It may be consoling to taxpayers
to know that although Hopbottom
ioadn are an expensive convenience,
education Is now extremely cheap.

visit at Fleetvllle.

men who filled the place Saturday

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
Now York, Aug. 10. Dealings In
stocks today we'ie too small to offer
a broad basis for generalizations. But
tho fact Is significant that very few
stocks were offered for sale, holders,
apparently being foment to retain
their holdings In spite of some of the
developments unfavorable to vnlues,
so that the demand, smnll though It
wus, was .sufficient to put a check to
the opening decline nnd establish u
higher range of prices than those at
the close of last week. The additions
to the irankB of the striking steel
workers over Sunday was responsible
for the opening heaviness, not only In
thosi stocks, but In the general list.
The Interests Involved In the strike
nre so large that ltd vicissitudes af
fects the values of all securities. Tho
market guardians of the steel stocks
supported them and tho starting of
somn of their mills had n reviving
effect. But they did not lully share
In tho later recover of the market
which carried some of the railroad
stocks Mihstnnthtllv over Saturday's
'prices. Tho activity and str?ngth was
confined to a few stocks only and was
apparently due to causes Individually
to those stocks. Norfolk nnd West
ern and Chef-apeake and Ohio were
higher. The llgures of the coal ex
port trade published this morning,
showing the value of coal exports
doubled since 1637 nnd the amount
more than trebled since 1M1 wtie nn
Influence Jn the strength of these
stocks, which nre peculiarly benefited
by the coal export trade. Not folk and
Western rose 2! over Saturday The
rise In St. Paul and Atchison reached
about tho same llgure In a sudden
spurt Just before the cke. Chicago
and Eastern IlMnols mounted eight
points over the previous sale. Amal
gamated Copper resumed Its upward
movement. The market closed firm
tjut very dull on the last rally. Total
sales today, 270.400 shares.
Railroad bonds were little dealt In
nnd were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $:P.'.,000. V. S. bonds were all
unchanged on the last mil.
