MT. Parsons' Musicale.

E. A. Parsons gave the first of three invitation musicales at Republican hall last evening. These musicales are de- voted to readings from modern mas ters" and the remaining two will be on the 27th of this month and the 11th of May. There was a numerous gathering of musicians last night and Mir Par sons had prepared an especially inter- esting programme, in which he was as
 sisted by Mrs. Ida Feutchwanger Asher, E. A. Leopold and Master Nathan Fryer MT. Parsons played the F minor sonata of Grieg and a group of solos, which included four of Macdowell's new Sea Pieces" Mrs. Asher, whose splen- did dramatic soprano voice is only too seldom heard sang, with her usual en- thusiasm and fire. Mrs. Asher is singer of rare temperament and she deserves to be heard in some large work. E. A. Leo
 pold sang two groups of solos and was heard to better advantage than on any occasion since his return from Germany. Master Nathan Fryer MT. Parsons discovery and pupil, played a group of solos and the brilliant Op. 79 con certo of Weber with his master at the second piano, This boy is undoubtedly possessed of real talent and his per- formances gave true pleasure. The evening was a great success and the other two are anticipated with interest

The Stock Market.

New York, April 13.-Local transport ation and gas properties were advanced smartly to-day and retained about half the rise to the end. Brooklyn Transit's strength was connected with its pur- chases of the Kings county elevated system. There were no new develop ments to account for the rise in Man haitian and Metropolitan. Assurances that adverse legislation was unlikely helped Consolidated Gas and Brooklyn Union Gas. Among other specialties that were strong were Sugar and Press ed Steel Car. The activity and strength of the speclaltes caused the early weak ness in London to be ignored and the standard railways were neglected until the afternoon, when renewed activity was at the expense of values. Some considered the Samoan incident as bear argument, but crop damage re- ports caused the grangers to be sold freely
 Important bull interests seemed to bid up their properties in the forenoon but were not heavy buyers, judging by ap- pearances. The reactionary movement in the railways cut fdown some of the advances in special issues, including the Tobacco stocks The selling movement was in progress at the end, leaving the market weak.
 Call money in the late dealings ran up to the legal figure, but later eased off to per cent. The public was in- duced by the carly advance in the spe- cialties to take an increased interest in the market, which was reflected in the volume of commission house business. The more urgent demand of this char acter was satisfied before the final hour, when there was considerable profession al realizing.
 The comparative ease of the monetary situation influenced return of invest pment orders in the bond market, which caused an active demand and higher prices for the gild edge issues. Semi speculative mortgages were taken for turn, and the market was decidedly strong in many spots. A feature of the trading was the increased inquiry from out of town centers, but this demand was largely for the middle grade secur- ities. The total sales aggregated s3,- 31O,000.
 United States threes registered and the new fours coupon advanced Is, but the old fours registered reacted A in the bid price.

DOG SHOW CLOSES TO-DAY.
School Children Invited to Attend This
 Afternoon.

School Children Invited to Attend This
 Afternoon.
 To-day is the last day of the dog show. It promises to be the most inter- esting of all Complimentary tickets have been sent to all the school chil- dren for the afternoon and at this house the hall will be given over to them All the entries have been left in and are as numerous as at the begin ming.
 The last of the special prizes will be awarded by the judges this afternoon, as will also the prizes for Yale entries. The greatest task on the judges will be the awarding of the special prize to to the best dog in the show. The merits of all the dogs that have been awarded prizes will be discussed, and the one having the greatest number of good points will be awarded a valuable tro- phy.
 If any one dog at the show is attract ing more attention than another it is the one owned by Professor Baur of 143 York street, this city. The dog is a French bulldog and is one of the very few genuine French bulldogs in this country. The little fellow is only seven months old and he was awarded the first prize at the show. 'Pari," as he is called by his proud owner, was re- ceived as present from Baron de Sel- Here of Paris, who owns the father and mother of the little fellow The dog is a splendid specimen of the French bull dog and the judges speak in high terms of his qualities. On the first afternoon of the show he managed to get loose from his stall, and, making straight for a hound owned in Bridgeport, fastened his teeth so firmly in the hounds throat that his grip was with difficulty loosen- ed by his owner.

Burton H. Strickland is secretary and treasurer. This corporation has the exclusive rights in this state of the Kelly patents during their lives, about eleven years, and as far as is known at present the recent purchase cannot in the least have any effect on the local concern. Before the new syndicate, which it is said is to be incorporated for $20,000,000, can control the entire rub Der tire business in this country, if not in the world, they will be compelled to purchase the local agency.
 Complete control is their prime ob ject and they have purchased the busi- ness of the Rubber Tire Wheel com- pany with that end in view. The price paid was $1, ,250,0O0. The new owners in tend transferring the headquarters from Springfield, O., to New York city in the course of a few months.

EXHUMING VICTIMS OF MAINE
Forty Bodies Are Prepared for Ship
ment to the United states the
First Day.

HAVANA, Dec. 1S.--A gang of fourteen
grave diggers, superintendent by Chaplain
Chidwick and Or. Cacour, began the ex-
humation, in Colon cemetery today OF the
remains of the victims of the Maine.
AS the coffins We're raised to the grave
side, the remains were Immediately placed
in tin-lined collins prepared with lime and
charcoal bottoms, after which more lime
and charcoal were used and then the cof-
fins were carried a few yards away, where
tinsmiths nailed down and hermetically
sealed the lids, the names being distinctly
painted thereon,
Chaplain Chidwick, using his chart, kept
strict account in each instance Forty
eXhumed bodies we're carried to the ceme-
tory chapel. Two watchmen are on duty
for the night. Twenty-Five soldiers and
about as many spectators were present.
A distressing but unavoidable feature was
the necessity of removing the broken rem
nants of several collins. Father Chdwick
at first refused to allow this 10 be done,
in the only way 1t seemed practicable to
remove them but as the lime, which was
originally put in as a dsinfectant had caked
firmly there was no alternative.
