People who have been inclined to the
belief that ever since the ripper" bill
went into effect this city has gone to
the "demnition bow-wows" will be now
forced to admit that in one most i'm
portant particular she holds her own
with the largest municipalities of the
countryside has an unimpaired credit
that commands the rnspect of the big
gest financial houses in the land.
This was demonstrated yesterday af-
ternoon, when the second batch of bids
for the bond issue of S2S5, 900 was opened
by Recorder W. l.. Connell. These bids
were not only higher than those opened
and rejected a week before, but they
We're double those received last year for
the sewer bond issue. and it is believed
that the, successful bid is the highest
ever received in the history of the city.
The successful bidders We're w. J.
Hayes & Son. who offered a premium of
$1,000 for the S2S5,000 issue of 31a per
cent. bonds agreeing also to pay the
state tax. which will amount to over
$4,000. There We're several other bid
ders who We're close TO this bid, as will
he seen by the following list Of premi-

A number of representatives from
several of the houses bidding We're pres
ent in the recorders Office when the
bids were opened. but the successful
bidders had no agent present. The
bondsmen who We're on hand, however,
made the emphatic statement that the
successful bid was one of the highest
they had ever seen, and congratulated
the recorder OH his being able to dis
pose of the bonds at such great ad-
vantage to the city.
1t seemed to be the unanimous senti-
ment that the almost absurdly small
net Indebtedness of s522, OBS. 80, as CONF
pared with the assessed property valu-
alton of S65,6S6,703, was what led the
bidders to deem Scranton's credit to be

country has such small Indebtedness
IN proportion to its population and as
sessed valuation.

YOUNG PEOPLE
Being Trained for and Placed In
Excellent Positions.

Probably a greater popular interest
now attaches to The Georgia Ala
bama Business College at Macon, Ga,
than to any other Southern education
al institution.
Doubtless this is due to the fact
that in addition to giving young la
dies and gentlemen a more thoroughly
practical business training than is OBJ.
tainable elsewhere, it makes special
ty of securing positions for them :
and it offers a reward of 100000 for
legal proof of any graduate holding
diplomas under it's guaranty offer
who was not promptly placed in a
good position, or proved incompetent
to hold it.
Being owned and conducted by Prof.
E. L. Martin, formerly of this State,
it has an annual enrolment of over
800 students, representing the entire
South.
Mississippi stands second on the list
of States, having pupils present from
nearly every county and section.

Rushing and Worrying Through Life.

A good many good and conscientious
women make themselves haggard and
old before their time by worry aud
overwork in the endeavor to fulfill
what they call conflicting duties"
These people in spite of all their
goodness and unselfishness, are want
ing in common sense. Conflicting du-
ties simply do not exist, as they may
easily prove by faithfully and punctu-
ally performing each duty as it occurs.
Careful arrangement and system will
produce a sense of peace in the place
of conflict, and there will still be that
little breathing space left for which
they often sighed before. If this be
not their experience, they may be quite
sure that they are magnifying into du.
ties all sorts of claims which may be
the duties of other people, but which
certainly are not theirs.
No one ought to rush through life in
a perfect turmoil of work and business,
and those who do, almost invariably
have themselves to blame. They prob
ably are such slaves to duty that, not
content with doing their own, they feel
morally responsible for the duties of
others. The idea is morbid and silly :;
still, it is, unfortunately, common, and
the result is sooner or later state of
nervous strain.-Picayune.

Here is a girls composition on boys:
"Boys are men that have got big as
their papas, and girls are women that
will be young ladies by and by. Men
were made before women. When God
looked at Adam, he said to himself,
We'll, | think | can do better if | try
again, and then he made Eve. God
liked Eve 50 much better than Adam
that there have been more women tina n
men ever since. Boys are trouble.
They wear out everything but soap. If
l had my way, half of the boys in the
world would be girls, and the rest
would be dolls. My papa is so nice that
l think he must have been little girl
when he was little boy" Farm Jour

TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS,
And to All Others who Wish to
Take The Leader.

To meet the requirements of
its growing circulation and in.
creasing job printing patronage,
THE LEADER has found it nec-
essary to add an engine to its
outfit to run its presses. We
have, therefore, closed a con-
tract for a gasoline engine of
one of the best patterns, to be
delivered within the next 30
days. We have agreed to pay
cash for the new machine, and
in order to meet this and other
extra expenses incident to the
change of power, we must raise
an extra amount OF cash be.
tween now and February |. To
do this, we have decided to call
upon all of our subscribers and
those who wish to become SUBJ
scribers for the coming year, to
assist us, and to make it to
their advantage to do so.
Our proposition is this: From
now until the first day of Feb
ruary, 1902, and including that
date, all subscribers, old or
new, can get THE LEADER at
ONE DOLLAR A YEAR. If you
want THE LEADER and HOME
AND FARM combined, you can
get both papers by paying Sl.25.
Persons who have recently paid
our regular subscription price OF
Sl.5O, can have their time ex-
tended for another year beyond
their present limit by paying
the dollar rate while this spe-
cial offer is in force, or they can
get THE LEADER and HOME
AND FARM for another year by
paying Sl.25.
We hope all who read this
notice will take advantage OF it,
and thus do a good thing for
themselves and at the same
time help us pay cash for our
engine.
FAIR NOTICE This offer will not
be continued after February I. 1t will
positively be withdrawn on that date,
and our regular subscription price of
$3.50 per year will go into effect
again; so don't procrastinate--nOw is
the accepted time. There will be no
exception to this rule, and no one
need ask or expect it.

1t is reported that few days before
Christmas, while President Roosevelt
was walking on Massachusetts, ave-
nue. one evening, he was approached by
a stranger who laid his hands on the
Presidents arm and shoulder. The
President is reported to have felled
the man with his fist, and passed on
with friends. Secret service police
deny knowledge of the incident. At
the White House it is intimated that
the story is true, but exaggerated. Lord
Paunceforte is said to have witnessed
the encounter.
