Lease Is Closed.

New York. June 27.-The Tribune says:
The report that the New York Central
had come to an agreement with the Bos-
ton & Albany railroad, by which the New
York Central would lease the Boston &
Albany for a term of 50 years and guar
antee s per cent IN the stocks, was not a
surprise either in railroad circles or in
Wall street. That the lease is practically
closed was confirmed from a trustworthy
source yesterday. From one of the most
influential railroad officials of the Van
derbilt system some facts We're CLEANED
about the negotiations to secure control
of the Boston &Albsny. For more than
two years William X. Vanderbilt and his
friends have been working to get control
of the Boston & Albany, as it is the Cen
trails natural outlet to Boston for its
western trains. About a year g Dr.. w.
S. Webb, president of the Wagner Palace
Car company, started in to buy Boston
& Albany stock. AS this stock is largely
dealt in in Boston, he authorized a Bos-
ton broker to buy all the stock he could
find in the Boston market and did not
stipulate a price, but said to get it. In
about 10 days his broker sent word that
he had secured something over 1000
shares, and wanted to Know if he should
go ahead, as the price had gone up about
80 points in these few sales. Then a stop
was put to that. Thu stock was so close
ly held that many thought control could
never be secured. Despite tbs persistent
work has been done and is laid to have
been crowned with success. The general
opinion in Wall street, although no off,
clal confirmation of the transaction could
be obtained, is in line with the informa-
ton that the lease has virtually been eff
fected and the view was taken that his
New England arrangement would before

LUMBER DRIFTS ASHORE.
Residents of Bolinas Profit by the
Aherdeen'S Loss.

BOLINAS, Oct. 17.-About 100000 feet OF
pine lumber which was washed from the
deck of the steamer Aberdeen last Tues
day while she was on her way from Port
land. Or, to San Francisco, foated into
Bolinas Bay last Friday. There was so
much of the lumber that for half mile
from shore the ocean appeared yellow.
The incident created good deal of ex-
citement and for a while residents were
busily engaged in removing the lumber
from the beach to their homes. All the
lumber now reposes in piles and stacks
on the various ranches in the vicinity,
where it will be used for firewood, as 1t
is c,It into too large Scantlings to be used
in local building operations.
- It was on last tuesday that the Aber-
deem. Captain Pedersen, encountered d.,
fierce northwester off Point Reyes. The
iashines of the lumber which formed her
cargo broke loose and some of the lumber
getting caught in the rigging the main
mast of the steamer was carried away;
Water poured into the engine-room and
the cabin and for few minutes it was
feared that the fires would be eXtin-
pIIished The vessel was turned bows on
and weathered the storm. She reached
Lon dlomba rd-street wharf, San, Francisco,
With about 500, 900 feet of lumber and was
sent to Oakland Creek after discharging.

Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are a dis
covcry Of great value to the medical pro-
fession and the public. They are an un-
falling specific in all cases Of dyspepsia
and disordered digestion.
Almost everybodys digestion is disord-
cred more or less. and the commonest
thing they do for it is to take some one
of the many so-called blood purifiers,
which In many cases are merely strong
Cathartics. Such things are not needed
If the organs are in a clogged condition,
they need only a little help and they will
right themselves. Cathartics irritate the
sensitive Innings of the stomach and
bowels and often do more harm than
good.
PUrging is not what Is needed. The
thing to do is to put the food in condi-
ton to be readily digested and assimilat-
ed. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do this
perfectly. They partly digest what Is
eaten and give the stomach just the help
It needs. They stimulate the secretion
and eXcretion of the digestive fluids and
relieve the cOngested condition Of the
glands and membranes. They put the
whole digestive system in condition to
do its work. When that is done. you
need take no more tablets, unless you
eat what does not agree with you Then
take one, or two tablets-give them need
Cd help, and you will have no trouble
It's common sense medicine and q
common sense treatment and it will cure
every time. Not only cure the disease,
but cure the cause. Goes about il In a
perfectly sensible and scientific way.
We have testimonials enough to fill q
