Alfred Farlow, head of the Christian

asked last evening if the foregoing

Busy to Drive.
iBoston, July 2G.-The carriage OF
Mrs. Mary Baker c. Eddy, founder
and head of the Christian Science
Church, will not be seen about the
drives of Brooklne and Newton in
the future as often as it has been
seen since the distinguished woman
moved from Concord, n H., TO Chest.
nut Hill last winter, according to a
statement made officially yesterday.
Pressure of her still increasing labors,
not her years, which on July 16 num-
bered 81 Is the reason given for her
going out less regularly.
In letter to Mrs. Ella e. Williams
of Chestnut Hill, Newton, Mrs. Eddy
gives the information that, owing to
the increased demands upon her time,
she will not continue her daily drives
with the same regularity that has
characterized past years. Hereafter,
it is said, she will only drive out when
the demands upon her time at home
are not imperative.
Following is a letter from Mrs.
Williams to Mrs Eddy speaking of
the latter's drives, and Mrs. Eddy's
reply
Rev Mary Baker G.. Eddy:
Beloved Leader: have been
pleased to see you drive out in your
carriage every day, also to know that
you can take time from your work to
enjoy this daily drive. 1t brightens

New York May 9.--Prices OF securi-
ties have worked to a higher level dur
ing the week with occasional reactions.
Evidence Indicates that great banking
and nnacial interests have continued TO
exercise a benevolent control of the
market. Unlmpaired abundance Of money
resources have furthered the plans or
advocates of higher prices and the plac-
ing of new securities on more advan-
tageous terms. The enormous over-sub-
scription OF the Pennsylvania bond issue
and the declining interest basis on which
New York city revenue bonds were SOLO
was regarded as proof OF the substantial
increase in capital available for invest
ment. The promise of success for the
coming Union Pacific bond issue made
the Hartman Issues conspicuous In the

was a cheering factor.
