THE TRIAL TRIP.
The Lakeside Railway Car, with New
Motors, Makes the Trip in ~ Minutes.

The Lakeside Railway Car, with New
Motors Makes the Trip in 21 Minutes.
The Lakeside Railway Company is equip
ping their cars with more powerful motors
and larger wheels, with q view to making
the trip from Shenandoah to Mahanoy City
in less time. Yesterday afternoon car No. 6,
one of the two eight-wheelers, was brought
out for the trial trip. Daniel Waters guided
the trolley Conductor John James held the
watch and Supt William Founder was the
motorman.
The guests aboard were Messrs Patrick
Welsh, Supervisor of Mahanoy township;
w. w. Lewis of Mahanoy City; James Nc
Cool, Township Tax Receiver; Richard
Amour, detective; Z. w. Amour electrician;
Samuel Henry, Mauch Chunk; Andrew Car
lin and contingent of newspaper men,
representing Mahanoy City, Shenandoah and
POttsville papers.
In the run to Shenandoah, the time was
twenty two minutes from terminal to ter
minal. The return was made in twenty-one
minutes. Few stops were made, and speed
was sackcned but few times yet the trip
could not be said to have been made under
favorable conditions for high speed test
The machinery is new and stiff and two
other cars were drawing from the current, a
condition that made itself felt in climbing
sharp grades, With everything favoring the
run, it is believed the time could be reduced
to Is minutes, about 10 minutes faster than
with the old equipment. The speed of yes
terday was superior to that made by the
small cars in their initial trip which ended
at the Lehigh Valley crossing and several
minutes faster than their present speed. The
diameter of the new wheels is 33 inches
and the power of each motor is so horse
power.
Following is the time at several points on
the return trip to Mahanoy City: OF
toboggan 5:O95 Reading crossing, 5:1Ob foot
of Shenandoah hill 5:1O8; Columbia park
5:12l top of Fowlers SIG Fowlers SLOPE
517f Jacksons' siding 5:2O Meadows, 5:214;
High Point Park, 5:23; Robinsons, 5:25l /;
Stoeckle's, 5:27l Mahauoy City terminal,
5:29. The return was made in 2l minutes.
Work ON the other big car is now under
way and both will be in readiness to trans
port the masses July 4.

Addlel.s OF for St. louis.

WuAnNGToN, Del, June l2.-J Edward
Addicks left for st. Louis yesterday after
noon. He said that he did notexpect much
of contest on the Delaware delegation,
as his convention was the only lawful one
and he would present the regularly signed
credentials. He carries with him big
batch of afiidavits declaring that the Hig-
gins men used money at tho primaries. 1t
is said that the principal claim the Hig-
gins faction will make at st. Louis will
be that Addicks is not Republican, be-
cause he gave money TO a Democratic
campaign some years ago

THERE has been much discussion Of late as
to the effect on other trades of the big boom
il bicycles. The journal of CONNER
recently had long editorial ON the subject
and trade papers have generally discussed it.
Yesterday the Journal devoted a page to the
matter. 1t estimates the loss to other trades
at Sll2, 500. 900 year, and yet it leaves out Of
its calculation several items that might with
reason have been incorporated. 1t has been
generally known that the livery business and
the carriage trade had been seriously hurt,
but it has lately been made known that the
demand for pianos, jewelry, watches and
confectionery has ia len of materially. 1t is
stated that less whiskey and beer are drunk
fewer cigars smoked and fewer books bought
on account of the bicycles. The theatres
complain that they are obliged TO close much
earlier in the season, because their patrons
prefer wheeling to seeing plays. One way of
arriving at the financial effect of the bicycle
craze on a different basis than that Of the
Journal is to estimate the years output OF
wheels at 100000, Asthe average cost OF
wheels is about s75, it follows that S75, 900 OOC
VII be expended this year for wheels, and is
thus diverted from other lines of trade
What is gain for the bicycle makers is cleai
loss to other business men.

GRATIFYING RESULTS.
INTERESTING EXPERIMENTS WITH THE
NEW STOMACH REMEDY.
Not Patent Medicine, But a Safe Cure
For All Forms of Indigestion.

Not a Patent Medicine, But Safe Cure
For All Forms of Indigestion.
The results Of recent investigation, have
established, beyond question, the great
value of the new preparation for indigestion
and stomach troubles; it is composed of the
digestive acids, pepsin, bismuth, Golden Seal
and similar stomachics, prepared in the
form of 20 grain lozenges, pleasant to the
taste, convenient to carry when travelling,
harmless to the most delicate stomach, and
probably the safest, most eiiectual cure yet
discovered for indigestion, sour stomach,
loss of appetite and flesh, nausea sick head
aches, palpitation of heart, and the many
symptoms, arising from imperfect digestion
of food. They cure because they cause the
food to be promptly and thoroughly digested
before it has time to sour, ferment and poison
the blood and nervous system.
Over six thousand people in the state of
Michigan alone in 1894 were cured of stom-
ach troubles by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.

half century they have been debarred
from this privilege, for it was the forty
sixth annual convention of the Episcopal
diocese of California which opened its first
session in Grace Church yesterday morn
ing.
Last year certain amendments to the
canons were adopted, and one OF them
read: THE election for vestrymen ana
trustees shall be by ballot, and any person
of lawful age" etc. Now as the word
person" applies equally to men and
women, it was evident that women could
become vestrvmen and trustees, and if
vestrymen, why not delegates? This being
the case, it seemed good to some of the
churches to send women. st. Paul's
Church, Bakersfield, sent Mrs. Helen
Maude as one of its lay delegates. ST.
Johns Mission, Tulare, sent Mrs. Helen
Nj. Sexton among its representatives, and
Mrs. T.. j. Hutchinson also registered as a
delegate.
The ladies took their places quietly and
unostentatiously yesterday among the
clergy and laymen, who about hall filled
the seats in the central nave of Grace
Church. No opposition was offered to
their presence. and they listened to the
proceedings without offering any remarks
or suggestions. 1t is expected that to-day,
however, the question of whether women
can legally take an official part in the pro-
ceedings of the convention will be voted
upon, though to judge from the reticence
The San Francisco call., 1896-05-06

evinced by the lady delegates yesterday it
is not they who will bring the question to
aD issue by forcing their presence upon the
proceedings OF the convention.
The proceedings opened yesterday with
morning prayer at 1890, the music being
furnished by the surpliced choir of Grace
Church. There were over thirty clergy
men in the chancel, and the procession of
the clergy and choristers to the choir
stalls was very impressive. Rev. Edgar ] +.
Lion of ST. Stephens Church preached
the sermon, in which he touched briefly
on the history of the church, and strongly
advocated the advisability of extending its
sphere of usefulness by means of foreign
missions.
The Right Rev. w. f. Nichols officiated
at the celebration of the eucharist, and at
the conclusion of the religious services the
only business transacted before the ad-
journment for lunch was the calling of the
roilcall and the election of Rev. M. ID.
Wilson as secretary of the diocese.
The afternoon session was occupied with
reports of committees and other routine
business The treasurer of the diocese.
A. NJ. Van Bokkelen, reported a flourish
ing financial ssate of things, and all the
other reports were satisfactory.
Rev. ID. J. Lyon made q motion that the
business sessions of future conventions be
held in some public hall instead of a
church, which he did not consider fit
discussion which followed the clergy as
whole were more in favor of a secular hall
than the lay delegates.
Rev. K. S. Spalding said: "Mr. Lyons
resolution touches real point with us.''
Delegate Mansfield made a strong plea
in favor of continuing to hold conventions
in churches, declaring that if it were ir-
