HOTEL ENTERTAINING IN
 NEW YORK
Guests Of St. Regis May Entertain
 Friends There As
PERFECTLY AS AT HOME

Formerly all hotel life spelled cheer lessness,e and conditions have changed but little today in that class of hotels where the rooms consist of straight rows of narrow, comfortless and box-like bed- rooms. At such hotels guests sleep and get out; they do not live" there. At the St. Regis. located at Fifth avenue and Ffty-fifth street, New York city-admit- tedly the most exqulsitely arranged and furnished hotel in America--the features of hotel living with home comforts and privacy. and facilities for the entertain- ment of friends, have been carried to an extent that places this hotel in a class by itself. A week or a month spent in the metropolis during the opera season, the horse show, at Easter, and at other times, will be much more fully enjoyed if one Is able to make some suitable re- turn for the Inequalities of resident friends. At the St. Regis this is possible under conditions equal if not superior to those of the highest class private resi- dences. Guests can be afforded facilities for entertaining friends in any manner that heart can wish, from a quiet -tete-a- tete luncheon to an elaborate formal din- ner. The famous cuisine of the St. Regis, equal In all respects to the most cele- brated restaurants of Europe, lends itself admirably to such arrangements, and it's prices are no higher than any other first class hotel. Room rates at the St. Regis are likewise low: sS to S4 day for a commodious and luxuriously furnished single room; the same with private bath for s a day Cor S6 for two people): or S13 a day and up for a superb suite of parlor, bedroom and private bath

GENERAL ADVANCE
 II STOCK MARKET Neglected Stocks Are Pushed Forward for Good Gains BAD SIGNS ARE IGNORED Upturn In Wheat Is an Incentive to Retterment of Stocks and the Easy
 Money Market Is Favorable
 =. to Advances.

New York, April S.-The days proceed lngs in the stock market exemp1ified the adage that ''every dog has his day." the stock exchanges special adaptation of the term dog making the old saying apt. The market gave evidence at an early stage of a disposition to curtail operations on the eve of the three-days' recess. The oc- casion was seized, however, by numerous pools to rush into prominence innumer- able favorltes and to push them upward by violent advances. This sudden appear ance of activity and strength was ac- companied by nothing in the news to ac- count for 1t, either of a general tenor or of special application to the stocks af- fected. There was little evidence in the way of rumors to explain the appear ance in the spotlight of stocks which have stood in the background during the pe- riod of activity of stocks and larger issues and more representative character. Some others have not appeared on the tape at all for days or weeks past.
 One of the days news reports was that the Hughes committee to investigate ex- changes had completed it's report, and that no recommendation of legislation to restrict trading in stock exchanges would be included. Whether the unostentatious appearance of the announcement and the astonishing variety of the day's move ments In obscure and pooled stocks had any connection may afford an interesting subject for conjecture. It was subject of remark during the sessions of this com mission that pool activities were under discreet restraint. and sensational price movements were rarity.
 The substantial body of the stock list was quiescent today, but firm sn tone. Such ebullition as that of today in low grade stocks is accepted usually as a sign of degeneration in the speculation and a harbinger of the end of a move- ment. The market showed its recent dis position to ignore bad signs however, and there was no urgent pressure to get out of stock holdings over the holiday inter- val. The stock market kept one eye on the wheat market and saw evidence there to conform the belief that the government crop report did not promise well for the winter wheat crop.
 Inc reassembling of the conference be- tween the anthracite operators and the representatives of the miners was hope fully regarded as promising settlement. The coalers continued to benefit from this view The estimates of the current move- ment indicated that the money supplies would be increased by the time stock market operations are resumed on Mon day next. Receipts on balance from the interior thus far this week are reported

Plea for the Swamp.
om Leslie's Weekly.

From Leslies Weekly
 There Is no need of hastening the dis appearance of our swamps by campaign based on ignorance, prejudice, short-sight- cd commercialism, and political expedi- ency." This astonishing statement was made by Dr. Roland Harper, and is. upon second thought, worthy of consideration. Most people who use the word swamp do not know what a swamp is, and he contends that much of the demand for reclamation of swamp land is entirely be- side the point Much of the prejudice above mentioned is based upon misun- derstanding of the real nature and prop critics of swamps, and failure to dis criminate between the many kinds. Most swamps should be preserved, Dr. Harper thinks, because they are so well adapted to forestation, because they serve as pro- lection to the sources of streams. because they form the best habitats and refuges for certain classes of wild game, and breed rare plants, and, lastly, because the swamp is nature undeflled, and nature undefled is always beautiful. Swamps only become repulsive to the nature-lover when they are partly drained or contam- mated with rubbish or sewage.

Hubbard Bros. 6 Co.'s Letter.

New York. April s.-(Special.) J. Showers in various places in Texas, in four instances over an inch of rain, brought about realizing during the morning which held the market in face of favorable advices from Liver pool. In the afternoon the market made sharp advance on outside buy ing apparently based on the absence of any selling after the reports of rain were received. This demand came on a market where holders had sold as much as they wished before the holidays so that the demand quickly carried prices to the high est of the year. As many factors may develop during the holidays any opinion is without value but the sentiment is un- doubtedly in favor of a further ad- vance.

RUNAWAY VICTIMS
ESCAPE INJURIES
John 7. Devine, Wife, and Guest
in Smashup on H
Street.

At the Shoreham Hotel today it was
said that John T. Devine. proprietor
of the hostelry; Mrs. Dsvine, and
Miss Lucy Brown, OF Philadelphia,
who were in a runaway accident in
II street northwest yesterday, were
not feeling any III effects as a result
of the smashup.
Miss Brown had been visiting the
Devines at the Shoreham, and, accom-
panied by the proprietor and his wife.
was on the way TO the Union Station
when the runaway occurred. While
driving down II street the pole be-
tween the horses snapped. The driv-
er would probably have been able
TO stop the horses had not e passin z
automobile frightened them.
Unable TO keep the frightened ami
mails in the middle of the street, the
driver guided them into the iron
frame work at the New York avenue
entrance 10 the Masonic Temple. Both
horses fell to the pavement as they
crashed into the iron pole, but the
carriage was not overturned, and the
occupants escaped injury.
