President Mcleod, of the Philadel
phia and Reading Railroad Company,
has reason to feel proud of the work
he has accomplished during the past
, --~. - sAAoArals GeOOLu IVA Vnv PIOP
erty intrusted to his management
which has not been eclipsed since the
reorganization.
The prosperity of this corporation
not only affects the holders of its Sc
eurities, many of whom reside in
Philadelphia, but it interests a great
army of wage earners, the railroad
and the coal and iron companies CIV
ing employment to 41,537 men, to
whom SIS. 237 ,262 was paid as wages
last year.
One of the commendable features of
President McLeod's management is
that the property is not allowed to de-
teriorate. He is quick to take advan-
tage of extensions and alliances
which will add to the company's
traffic, and he maintains and adds to
the equipment Of the property that
the traffic, when obtained, may be
speedily and profitably handled. The
expenditures for betterments of a
permanent nature and for new rolling
stock were 81, ,77S, ,469.
The management has looked out for
the future also by arranging to issue
100000 of collateral trust bonds,
from the proceeds Of which better
ments and equipment will be provided
without diverting the earnings from
the income bondholders and stock
holders.
The Junior security holders, es'
pecially, havereason to feel encouraged
as the policy Of the management is
evidently one of justice to all classes
who are interested.

BURLEsQUINa MARY.
The Hazleton Sentinel Man Says
Naughty Things.

NohBA1y 4h4nRbs
May Davenport's Burlesque Company,
which is to appear here, played at
Hazleton on Tuesday evening, last, and
this is what the dramatic critic of the
HAzleton Sentinel says of her: "Hazle
Hall held a queer crowd last night 1t was
a low browed, retresting crowd that made
a man feel ashamed of himself. The faces
in the front rows wee l ke those peculiar
mugs you see on the inside pages Of the
Police Gazette, which you read in the
barber shop when you go there to get
shaved.
There wasn't a woman in the audience.
Men we'll known around town sneaked in
with guilty smiles on their faces.
When the curtain went up George Free
bic came out as lend man." Hazleton has
had many things charged to it, but If
George Freebie bills himself as coming
from Hazleton the town ought TO 20 down
the mines. A town that can produce
monstrosity in the end man line like that
has great deal to answer for. l. has been
said that George claims to come from the
metropolis" wherever that is. 1t was the
earnest wish of S217 house that he wou d
60 there and melt.
There were seven females on the stsgp.
Three little Hsz!eton girls weae decoyed in
to take part in the performance. They
sat on the stage like blocks, painted worse
than cigar signs One of the girls was
subsequently yanked out by her sister, who
threatened to call the police.
But the show.
May Davenport, top-heavy looking
specimen, was the interlocutor. There was
farmer, and three fairies with faces sharp
and rough enough to cut cold slaw, and
voices that could only blend with the sweet
cadences Of saw being filed.
The Jokes were villainous. The club
swinger was great. The only thing that
can be charged against him is that he is in
very bad company. The pianist was
villainous player and Davenport refused to
pay him more than fifty cents, and it was
money thrown away
The manager was fearful of arrest. He
left the hall when the curtain rang down.
But nobody made such move, though it
should have been made. ''
The Sentinel adds: "Performancss such
IS the May Davenport C1mpany give call
for the intervention of the strong arm Of
the law"

Still Waiting for the Word.

Ell KENO, y. L., April 6.-The only topic
of conversation among the boomers is the
opening of the new lands, and the only query
asked is when will the proclamation be is
sued. The daily papers are largely read to
find some new information as to the opening
day. The era of the cowboy in this country is
nearing its close, and he is now enjoying his
last grand round up. The cowboy knows the
country, and from him all information on
the matter can be secured. One of them, in
conversation, said that the cream of the new
country is in the county of H." and along
the Washita valley. He is authority for the
statement that farmers have been scared out
of the new country and now await the open
ing along the southern border. This will
give all fair chance and insure the finest
portion of the country to be settled by honest
and worthy people.
The freight force at the Rock Island depot
are working day and night all the tracks are
full of cars of goods for the boomers. The
noon train brought 655 people bound for the
new country.
It is estimated that there are 5000 boomers
at present camped in the town, and every day
adds to their numbers.

NEW YoRK, April Ar. G. Dun & Co. 3
Weekly Review of Trade says:
The business outlook is improving. There
has come distinct increase in marketing of
manufactured products and greater activity
in many lines of domestic trade. THIS is in
part due to more favorable weather in most
sections and the improved condition of coun-
try roads, and to the prospects Of an early
spring.
Manufacturers are doing very well. Prob
ably cotton manufacturers have not turned
out as great quantity of goods at any other
time as they have this year thus far, with less
accumulation of their products in the hands
The distribution has been remarkably large,
and the result of trade generally satisfactory.
Wooden manufacture also shows in the list of
improvement in some branches. The boot
anG shoe business is also increasing and &C
tive shipments are now exceeding last years,
the orders being large and urgent.
Reports from cities are generally encoura9.
ing. Speculation during the week has not
been active. Wheat declined ~ cents, corn
~ cents and pork 25 cents per barrel. The
decline in wheat is mainly due to shrinkage
in the foreign demand and western receipts
continuing large. As the new crop draws
nearer, and the prospect is that it will be
very large, prices naturally tend downward.
The money markets here and throughout
the country are abundantly supplied and
there is no sense of anxiety manifested in
any quarter.
The business failures far the past week
number 2iS, compared with 231 the previous
week. For the corresponding week last year
the figures we're 243.

An AmIcable Settlement.

All AITlICdOIS SSIUSIIlSnCs
TOPEKA, April 5.-The Santa Fe and the
telegraphers' grievance committee, that has
been in session here for a month, reached an
amicable settlement of all differences.
The conference resulted in q readjustment
of salaries all over the line on a basis that 10
entirely satisfactory to the operators and dis
patchers. New rules will be put in force that
are considered very favorable by the COM
mittee.
Under the old schedule there were a num-
Der of offices receiving $50 and $35 per month
and the petition of telegraphers to establish
a minimum salary of S45 per month was
granted.
Operators receiving over S45 per month
were increased S. and $40 each, except 200
offices. In these minor offices the committee
asked for an advance of $3.50 per month,
which was compromised at 81.
Train dispatchers and chief train dispatch
ers were allowed an advance of SIS per month,
making the salaries of the former $40 and
the latter $145. Thus it will be seen that every
Santa Fe telegrapher will receive an increase
of salary of from g to $40 per month, and
$50, 600 more per annuin will be scattered
among the 800 men over the 4,5O0 miles of
road.
The rules regulating operators and train
dlSpatcherS were also revised. At stations
where there are more than two operators. ten
hours will constitute days work instead of
twelve, and eight hours will hereafter be q
days work for train dispatchers. All ope-
rators and train dispatchers will be paid Tor
extra time.
The grievance committee feel very kindly
towards General Manager Robinson and Cen
eral Superintendent Nickerson for the cour-
teous treatment they have received, and they
are perfectly satisfied with the result of the
meeting.

KANSAS CHURCHES.

There are only four Jewish syna-
gogues in the state: One in Topeka, one
in Wichita aad two in Leavenworth.
The total membership is about 400.
At the Northwestern NJ. E. conference
the delegates elected to the general con-
ference were DR.. w. H. Sweet and D.
NJ. NJ. Stolz. The lay conference elected
E. W. VOORHEES,. They favored the adj
mission of women to the general con-
ference and equal lay representation.
Lawrence item: The First Congre-
gational church has been badly dam
aged. A tall chimney fell, crashing
through the roof and ceiling, and scat
tered brick and timbers on the pulpit
and choir loft. The janitor was in the
church at the time and narrowly escaped
being hit by falling bricks. The dam
age amounts to about $500.
North Topeka item: Something nov
ell in the way of surprises" took place
when the Congregational prayer meet
ing marched in body over to the Pres
byterian church. AS they walked in,
headed by their pastor, Rev. Thomson,
it was easily seen that the Presbyterian
brethren were genuinely surprised. Ex-
pressions of good fellowship between
the churches were made by members of
both bodies present. A very enjoyable
hour was spent in joint prayer meet
ing.
Wichita Eagle: Rev. F. A. Bissell,
who has recently been called to the pas
torate of the Plymouth Congregational
church of this city, was born in Sriur,
India. Coming to this country to be
educated, he was prepared for college
and graduated at the age OF 81 from
Western Reserve university, Cleveland,
Ohio, after which he spent five years at
Yale, graduating from the Divinity
school and taking in addition two years
of post graduate study. Plymouth
church had been without pastor for
nearly a year when Mr.. Bissell was
called, and had passed through some
discouraging times, but is now taking
fresh courage and has bright outlook.
The congregations are growing in num-
bers and the services in interest. Late
ly the pastor has introduced new idea,
that of making the evening service one
for the people. A series of leaflets en-
titled peoples services" with new leaf
let's for each Sunday evening, has been
used, and special music has generally
been prepared appropriate to the theme.
These services have been of great inter-
est, and are to be continued.
