Enormous prices were paid for the

at the Charing Cross bazaar in Len
don-in some cases G5. or S25, having
been demanded and given. This re-
calls the cantankereus action OF an

some years ago, when the professional

One of these. before serving the elder

Smallest In the World.


Smallest In the World.
From the New York Herald: Losses
at sea sustained by the merchant serv-
Ice OF the world in the last year are
sent forth in report prepared by the
British government, copies of which
have been received here. Great Brit
ain, with over 100000 tons afioat,
has the lowest percentage of losses.
Startling figures are presented as to
the number of steamers and sailing
craft reported missing" and now re-
garded as lost by insurance underwrit-
ers. No less than "A steamers sailed
out of various ports last year and have
never been heard from, and 70 sailing
vessels cleared and never reached their
destination, both classes representing
total tonnage OF 72,773 In addition
So ships, representing IS sailing craft
and II steamers, had to be abandoned
at sea. AS result of all the losses
the gross reduction in the, mercantile
marine of the world is shown to be
1,l4l vessels of S20,72o tons, excluding
vessels of less than 100 tons. Great
Britains rate of loss is 223 per cent.
the next on the list being Germany,
with 2.33 per cent. Germany and the
United States are now making meek
and-neck" race as regards the total
number of vessels owned, the latter
having 2,113.677 tons and the former
2113,9S1 tons. Austria-Hungary is
third in point of rate of loss. with 3.1S
per cent, and then comes Russia, with
1863 per cent, and the United States,
with Ala per cent. The other nations
are in the following order: Italy, 4.34
per cent; France, 4.4S; Holland. 4.62:
Spain. Sol; Norway, $50, and Sweden,

Summer Gowns,

Among the gowns for grown-up folk
one hardly sees anything now but the
cool and airy ones. Every one is in
quest Of the costume that will look sum-
merry and count for next to nothing in
weight and warmth. Printed muslins
are in all sol ts OF pretty colorings and
tigurings A good deal more tucking
than ruffling is used on them, and the
fichu and scarf effect on bodices prevails
The fichu permits of the house gown be-
ing left open at the neck, and when worn
with out.of-door frocks there is nothing
more covering the neck than lace
yoke and unlned collar. A pretty idea
in dresses for young women is the deep,
square yoke with scarf formed of wide
lace caught just at the back and brought
around close up under the arms, tying
in knot, with ends, just at the front
An arrangement of the fichu that is
liked is to draw it around the shoulders
giving the effect of the wearer's
shoulders emerging from the bodice.

Black seedaess Grape wanted.

Will some one develop black seed
less grape? We have white seedless
grapes, but suitable only to the climate
OF California, and now we want good
black grape without seeds. Such a
grape would sell at a fancy price on
the market. The fear of appendicitis
causes many people to take out the
seeds when eating grapes. and this
greatly detracts from the pleasure of
grape eating. A grape of the charac-
ter described would bring a good deaf
more than the common grape.-Farm-

The Hour Glass.
BY Priscilla Leonardo

tBy Priscilla Leonardo
Eternal things can stretch or shorten
At that imperial will from chime to
chime
Measures the limit of an hour, yet
The anguish of a soul can overfill
A century's cup as the slow seconds
move,
Or, throned within the heart,
rapturous love
With passionate and all compelling
power
Can, by touch, make of the self
same hour
A single yearning moment, swift to
pass.
All, Time! how impotent thy scythe
and glass
Plaything thou art, though tyrant
thou wouldst be,
For mans eternal soul makes sport
of thee!

TO BETTER THE SERVICE.
Scranton Railway Company viii
Run Through Cars Between scran.
ton and Carbondale.

Commencing Thursday the Scranton
Railway company will run through
cars between Scranton and Carbon
dale every twenty minutes, covering
the distance in an hour and fifty min-
utes and charging 30 cents each way,
or S5 cents less for the round trip than
is charged by the steam road.
The first car leaving Scranton for
Carbondale will start at SEQ a. M,
arriving in Carbondale at 7.10. Twenty
minute trips will be made up to 10
o'clock p. m, and after that the SER
vice from Mayf1eld barn to Carbondale
will be cut to forty-minute trips. The
last car leaving Scranton for Carbon
dale will start from Lackawanna ave-
nue. at 1l.2O p. m. and arrive in Car
bondale at ITO a. m. All cars will run
through to Belmont street in the upper
part of Carbondale.
The first car from Carbondale to
Scranton will leave at $50 a. m.. A
twenty-minute service will be MAIN
tained straight through till 11.30 p. m,
when the last car starts for Scranton.
1t will arrive here at 1.1O a. nj.
The five large "spliced' cars now
used on the Peckville runs and six Of
the eight-wheel Carbondale Traction
company cars will be utilized for these
through runs. A four wheeler will be
temporarily brought into service to
make out the full complement Even
tuelly special large fast cars will be
supplied to this line.
The Peckville and Olyphant runs will
be abandoned. with the exception of
the first Olyphant trip at $40 a. m.,
which will be continued.
Heretofore there was a fifteen minute
service to Peckville and Olyphant and
seven and a half minute service to
Providence. After Thursday there will
be a twenty minute through service
and ten minute service to Providence
The through cars will leave on the
hour, twenty and forty The Provi-
dence cars will leave at ten, thirty and
fifty. The larger size of the through
cars, 1t is figured, will make up for the
decrease in the number Of trips.
On the same day a change will be
inaugurated in the Bellevue-StOne ave-
nue. line, by which a twenty minute
service will be substituted for the pres
ent half-hour service. from $50 a. m.
to $50 p. m. on the Bellevue end and
from 6 a. m. to 9 o'clock on the Stone
avenue end. The last car for each ter

SAFE IS STILL LOCKED.

Are Still without Their Pay-To
Use Electricity on the Safe.

Payday is still a thing Of the dim,
way cOmpany's four hundred em-
ployes. All attempts OF Expert Griggs
to throw back the bolts that securely
bar the door of the vault containing
their pay envelopes and the pay-rolls
have proved fruitless, and now 1t Is
purposed to cut hole through the
door, as the only means of ever get
ting inside.
When Expert Griggs gave up all
hopes Of moving the bolts from the
outside. and announced that it was
necessary to cut way through. Chief
Engineer r. d. Wildt. of the Provi-
dence power station, who, incidentally,
Is waiting for his pay. with the rest,
suggested as substitute for the slow
process of chiseling through the steel
door that he be allowed to burn a way
through with electricity.
His request was granted and yes
terday afternoon force Of men, under
his direction, laid heavy feed wires
from the feeders" on Lackawanna
avenue to a field of resistance coils
located in front of the vault and from
these to single, heavy. insulated cop
per wire reaching to the vault door.
1t was figured that by applying the
end Of this wire to the door q hole
would be melted through the outer
steel plates in verv short time.
1t was arranged to commence this
work at o'clock this morning when
the cars had stopped running and the
full current supplying the trolley could
be utilized. Mr.. Griggs marked the
place where he wanted the opening
made. and asked that 1t be made large
enough for him to insert his hand. Mr.
Wildt promised to have such an open
ing made before daylight.
