With general regret it was learned the last Of
the week that Theodore Lyons, one of our oldest
and most highly esteemed business men, had
become financially embarrassed and had made
general assignment for the benefit OF his Credi-
tors. The grocery house of the Lyons is one Of
the oldest here, having been founded by Jerre
Lyons in the early history Of the town, and since
been continuously operated by members Of the
family. The firm has always been noted Tor
strict honesty, and this reputation has been lived
up TO in every particular 1t seems hard, indeed,
that Mr. Lyons, whose life is well advanced,
should be oycrakcn by business reverse.

Yesterday was the beginning of the
last two weeks of The Tribune's Edu-
cational Contest. The remainder of the
period will undoubtedly be filled with
energetic work on the part of the six
teen contestants who have scored
points as well as by some who have
registered their names recently, but
have not yet brought in subscriptions.
As the end OF the contest is now so
pla inly in sight, each contestant should
do all in his power to Increase or, at
least, maintain his present standing.
The special rewards offered are too
valuable to lose after many weeks of
earnest work, and it depends on the
"hustling" abilities of the young men
and women themselves whether they
come in near the top or down below
the leading ten contestants.
Every possible means will be taken
to safeguard the interests of each indi-
vidual in this contest and no favorit-
ism will be shown. The Tribune will
see that all have a fair and equal
chance in the closing days and hours
of the contest.
Yesterdays changes in the standing
were quite numerous. Miss Jennie
Meyers, of Lake Ariel who is a COM
paratively recent acquisition to the list
of leaders, came up from eleventh place
to sixth, displacing Eugene Boland,
whom she now leads by single point.
Harry Reese gained three points on
Boland, and is but two points behind
him for seventh place. Miss Grace
Smrell, who was in tenth position on
Saturday night, has also improved her
standing and goes up one place, and is
now only seven points behind Reese.
Miss Fannie Williams, who stood
eighth yesterday morning, is now
tenth, and Miss Mary Yeager, who was
ninth, has dropped behind little and
is eleventh. The rest of the contest
ants are practically unchanged. AS
there is a difference of but 23 points
separating the eleventh contestant
from the fifth, and as two yearly sub
scribers would take the former into
the place held by the latter the splen-
did chance any one of the contestants
has to improve his standing will be
readily perceived. Even the lowest OF
the contestants can catch up with the
foremost ones by a little extra work
Below we publish the complete list OF
contestants, with their standing:

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York. Sept. 1.-THE expected break in
prices Of stocks failed TO occur today. There
was very considerable selling orders in the mar
ket ut the opening, as never fails 10 happen
after such break in prices a. that OF Satur,
day. but the friends Of the various stocks had
placed supporting orders in the market and their
buying was SUFFICIENT 10 absorb the offerings.
The professional traders, who had sold short
on saturday were net slow 10 detect the eYl.
dcnces OF support, and they hastened 20 corcr
aud take their profits Buying from this source
was a material factor in the day. Seeing the
tendency Of things, the bull leaders who had
70 retreat last week attempted to retrieve their
lost ground by bidding up prices. The pressure
TO sell at the advance stopped this movement
however, and the market fell back into its re-
cent condition OF lethargy and downward drtit.
ing. Prices in nearly all important stocks we're
very near to Saturdays lebel at the close, which
was dull and easy. The relative hrmness OF the
coal carrying railroad stocks, even before the
general upturn and the positive strength devel-
opcd later served to detract somewhat from the
effect Of the shutting down OF the coal mines.

As Big as a Sea,

Perhaps no lake can lay SO great
claim upon the tourist and pleasure
seeker as can Lake Winnipeasaukee.
Its very environment leads to health
and pleasure, and that these are the
salient qualities which have made the
lake famous, is shown by the great
and ever increasing number who seek
annually the resort with which the
shores Of Winnipesaukee abound. The
shore line of the lake measures more
than hundred and eighty miles, and
its surface, of nearly three billion
square feet, is dotted with islands
numbering not far from three hun
dred, some Of which are mere speCks,
while Others in area coveres several
hundred acres. The rugged shore
line, with its innumerable bays, inlets
harbors and the many islands furnish
thousands of admirable sights for
camps and summer homes.
To reach the resorts in Winnipesau.
kee Is an easy matter inasmuch as the
train service to The Wcirs at one end
and Alton Bay at the opposite end, is
SO arranged as to enable the steamer
Mt. Washington, to make two round
trips of the lake daily. The trip over
the lake is a delightful one, and in

The Old Cumberland ROaG.

Before the war and the advent of
the steam horse the Cumberland road
presented a scene to the traveller long
to be remembered, a picture such as
we see today only in print and not in
nature. The iron mleposts which
dotted the road We're kept clean and
free from rust, and the crack of the
POSITIONS whip could be heard at any
hour of the day as the rumblng stages
bumped along between Wheeling and
Cumberland and Baltimore. Twenty
OF these coaches, with their red and
yellow trimmings, passed each day tho
rattle and sheep which were being
hllven to market by the cattle raisnrs
along the road. Since the time when
the road was covered with stage
coaches, canvas covered wagons ana
ten horse teams, cattle and sheep the
road has undergone little change.

TO SAVE THE ROADS.
Provisions of the Massachusetts
Wide Tire Law.

wide Tire Law.
The wide tire law, passed by the
Massachusetts legislature through tn,
efforts of the Massachusetts division
of the League of American Whoelmen
provides that on and after Jan. /, 1902
sit shall be unlawful, except as pro-
vided in section Of this act, to use
upon any road, street or way in this
commonwealth draft wagon or cart
having tires of iron or steel or of any
substance equally hard which nre less
in width than one and one-half times
the diameter Of the axle, measured at
tie shoulder thereof; but in no case
shall a tire more than four inches in
width be required, and wagons and
carts built with wooden or hollow
aNlos shall have tires not less in width
than The diameter Of the axle, meas
urcd at the shoulder thereof.
This act shall apply to all wagons
and carts the aXles of which are two
inches or more in diameter, measured
as aforesaid. and to all stagccoachcs,
tallyho coaches. barges and other pas
Senger vehicles not built to run on iron
or steel rails and constructed to carry
eight or more PERSONS"
The fourth section states that the act
shall not apply to wagons or other We
hicles owned and used in the state on
Jan. l, 1902. This is the weak clause
in the bill, putting off the best effects
OF the law for many years. The pen
atty for violation Of the law is a fine
not exceeding 500.
