STOCK MARKETS. DULL

Sporadic Flashes of Activity Are
Only Features of
Poor Day.

New York, May eliminating
sporadic flashes of activity. todays
stock market was dull and utterly
lacking in significance. Dealings
were in declining volume and reflect
ed the conservatism of the trading
element quite as the Indifference Of
the investment public.
Leading stocks of which there
were less than half a dozen were
under pressure all day. United States
Steel luctuated within a fraction of
yesterdays close. Lehigh Valley and
Reading both bore the marks of COW
cred trading. The standard or divi-
dend paying grangers. trunk lines
and trans-continentals, were more or
less neglected. There was no ia
miliar contrary movement in major
specialties on some of the high price
issues, including Sears Roebuct,
which sold as high as 1870 ", on
buying ascribed to inside interests,
The lower range of prices, with
which the market opened, again was
attributed to London where Ameri-
can stocks in common were dull and
. irregular. Canadian Pacific follow
ed its decline abroad with a two
point drop This soon was extended
to 31a points. American Tobacco
rose over three points, Liggett &
Meyers four and half and Lorrilard
six points.
Minneapolis, St Paul and Sault
Ste. Marie also was heavy with more
selling of Reading and the local IA
vorites.
The dull afternoon session WINS
marked by further irregularity of
the market leaders and additional
gains of obscure issues, the closing
being fairly heavy despite renewed
heaviness in the coalers and Cana
dian Pacific.
Prices of bonds were q trihe lower
with moderate dealinis. Total sales,
par value, $3,329,0O0. Govern

Gossip that attracted a great deal
of notice among wheat spectators

the United States had fallen 10000

WhyShould
CutiCura Soap?

"There is nothing the matter
with my skin, and / thought
Cuticura Soap was only for skin
troubles" True, it is for skin
troubles, but its great mission is
to b,SVent skin troubles. For
more than a generation its deli
cate cmollient and prophylactic
properties have rendered it the
standard for this purpose, while
its extreme purity and refreshing
fragrance give to it all the advan-
tages of the best of toilet soaps
1t is also invaluable in keeping
the hands soft and white, the hair
live and glossy, and the scalp
free from dandruff and irritation
While its first cost is few cents
more than that of ordinary toilet
soaps, it is prepared with such care
and of such materials, that it wears
to a wafer, often outlasting several
cakes of other soap, and making
its use, in practice, most econom-
ical. Cuticura Soap is sold by
druggists and dealers everywhere,
but the truth of these claims may
be demonstrated without cost by
sending to "Cuticura," Dept. M,
Boston, for a liberal sample
cake, together with a thirty-two-
page book on the skin and hair.

STATE FAIR BILL PUT INTO
SHAPE.
Commission Created and Half Million
Dollars Provided--Agricultu
Federation Back of it.

Drafts OF bill providing for a
State fair have been completed and
the measure will be among the first
to be presented to the Legislature
when it meets In January.
The bill, which has the endorse
ment of the Pennsylvania Agricul-
tural Federation and of many promi-
nent State officials and political lead
ers without regard to affiliation, will
carry an appropriation of 100000
for the purchase of a site, erection
of buildings and general preliminary
work, together with the cost of oper-
alton for two years. The fair is to
be in the hands of a commission OF
seven, of whom the Governor and
Secretary of Agriculture are to be
ex-officio members. The Governor
is to appoint five. The commission
will select the site and every agri-
cultural organization in the State
will be asked to lend support and to
send the best of the exhibits al
county fairs to the show. The fail
has long been urged by the State
Livestock Breeders, members of the
State Dairy Union, State Board OF
Agriculture and other organizations
The bill will probably provide that
the fair shall be held near Harris
burg, because of II being the capita
and owing to Its central location anC
good railroad facilities.

PETITION TWO MILES LONG.

San Francisco, Cal.-The liberty
bell petition, mounted on huge
reel and containing the signatures
of nearly 100000 school children of
California, started on its journey to
Philadelphia last week after being
paraded down Market street with
military honors.
When the Philadelphia authorities
seemed unwilling to send the famous
bell to San Francisco for the Pana-
ma-Pacifc exposition in 1915, it was
decided to make an appeal to them
in petition form. The signatures
pasted together make a string two
miles long. The petition is going
as special baggage and will be sent
through to Philadelphia without
stop.

STATE TO Be LIBERAL WITH
HIGHWAYS
Estimates Being Made for Informa-
ton of Next Legislature as to the
Appropriation of Moneys for
State Highway Depart
mpnt.

Harrisburg, Dec. Estimates
are now being made for the informa
tion of the next Legislature in max
ing up the appropriation for the
maintenance of the State Highway
Department for the two years COM
mencing June so, 1913. If the pro-
posed $50,000,000 bond issue for
the construction of highways on the
definite program laid down in the
act of 1911 is approved by the peo-
pie, the State will be in a position
to be liberal in regard to highway
construction and maintenance aside
from the main highway building sys-
TEN.
AS the State is committed to a
system of main highways by act of
the last legislature, provision must
be made for maintaining during the
next two years the roads already re-
built or repaired; but assuming the
bond issue for construction will be
ratified, the State will then be in a
position to make good sized appro-
priations for construction of high
ways under the State aid plan and
to provide for the payment of road
tax bonus to townships.
Highway legislation bids fair to
occupy much attention in the coming
session of the Legislature, as the
experimental period of road making
is practically ended and the de-
mand for good roads is State wide.
1t is no longer confined to those To-
calities near cities which have large
suburban populations, but comes
also from agricultural communities,
where the advantages of first class
highways reaching county towns and
market towns are now recognized
On the next legislature will depend
the future of the roads of the State
and the improvements seem certain
to go forward, owing to the strong
feeling in the interior counties in
favor of better highways as an econ
omic proposition. With a plan OF
distributing the sales of bonds over
period of years as needed and fol-
the retirement of these bonds at the
end of five years, the burden will
fall lightly compared to the benefits
that will be obtained from the de.
velopment of the highway program
and its systematic maintenance along
modern lines.

Due to Starvation.


Due to Starvation.
A man by the name of Stevens was
found dead in the snow at the old
stone quarry near Lake Como on
Sunday afternoon by Mr.. Jaycox of
Lake Como. MIR. Jaycox had gone
out to set some traps and when at
the stone quarry stumbled over
something which was covered up
with snow. He investigated the OBJ
ject and found that it was the form
of a man. 1t had been under the
snow some hours and was dead. The
justice of the peace was notified and
took charge of the remains An
inquest was held and a verdict rem
dered of death by starvation. DR..
Merriman of Lake Como examined
the body and no wounds of any
kind were found or no evidence of
crime having been committed.
Stevens was about 40 years of age
and a single man. He had been
previously employed in a saw mill
at Lake Como but lately had been
out of work. His home was in Hol-
listerville, this county. There was
a small amount of money on the
body and also a watch. No other
details could be obtained
