herself busy devising new methods to
make other people happy Since his

Schools and Colleges.

Bates college opened its year of work
Tuesday, Sept. 23rd, with the largest
entering class in its history.
The law against school fraternities,
passed by the last Legislature, is to be
vigorously enforced by the school au-
thorites of Bangor Superintendent of
Schools Norwood has stated most en-
phatically that at the least indication of
such activity the law would be used to
stamp it out at once and completely.
Colby college opened for the first sem
ester of her 93d year Sept. 18th, with a
bouncing freshman class of 1876. Eighty
seven of the newcomers are men and -
are women. Last year the number of
men shown by the catalogue, published
Jan. i, was 50 and the number of women
81, which was after there had been a
number of registrations late in the fall
term, The indications are, therefore,
that Colby college Will have close to 1850
freshman as soon as the late corners ar
rive.

 NEW YORK, Nov -Quotations were scaled down all through the stock market today. It was seVerest seVerest set back back for some time with four point losses among the representative stocks at the low fi- gUre of the day. The absence of strong support was disquieting to holders of stocks. Even more signi- ficant was the evidence of genuine liquidation which was written on the record Of the day. Conservative in Vestment stocks like Deleware and Hudson, Consolidated Gas Louisville and American Telephone were sold at concessions. In many cases the prices reached the lowest points since the slump last June, and in num- her of stocks, including Atchison, St Paul New Haven. American Tele- phone and Rubber, low marks for the year were set.
 The belief that a crisis is approach ing in this countrY's relations with Mexico was the foremost factor in influencing sentiment. United Steel's monthly statement of untitled ton mage was considerably poorer than had been expected For the first time in nearly two years the thrilled tonnage fell below the five million mark, the decrease amounting to more than three million tons in the last twelve months The showing last month indicated that orders for that period did not average more than fifty per cent production.

SUCH 4 TROUBLE FOR
 THE GINkS AND DiNkS
Two Little Republican Readers Want
 Cartoonist to Fix it up for Them.

Sympathy for "Gink" or for Mrs "Dink', a longing for a good miX-up and family row, curiosity, or some such motive has come to the surface in two little readers" of The Republican and prompted the suggestion that a change be inaugurated in the funny series en- titled "Gink and Dink' and that the little man and woman be mated and thrown into the limelight in contrast with the bigger pair of paper -vaudevil- lists.
 Prior to the inauguration of that change, however, proceedings must be instituted in several courts. A divorce case must be filed in the Jersey courts for Gink and his wife live on the far side of the Brooklyn Bridge. Another case must be inaugurated in the New York courts for the Dinks put up in a "gray-stone front on Fifth Avenoo. Grounds for the filing of the cases must be secured; counsel must be ar ranged on each side, and the contest ants will have to file away their pen nies until 9 time comes when they can pay their court expenses.
 But when all this is accomplished. and when a ripe time permits such a marriage. doubtless there will be a hOOl-up with results from the family row standpoint just as thrilling as are the present fisticufs
 Following is the letter:

FIRST PRAYER
 WEEK ADDRESS
Rev. John c. Page Speaks On the "A B c of Prayer" Before Large Noontimc Audience at Y.
 NJ. C. A. Luncheon Room.

Food for the body and rood for thought were both provided amply at yesterdays the first Y. M. C. A. prayer week and the prayer week luncheon series of addresses by Rev. John C. Page of Denver.
 Dr. Pages address, which was lis tened to by over eighty persons, was stirring and eloquent. It concerned the A. B. C. of Prayer, and naturally under that title, had something to say about the elementals of the sub ject.
 The A of prayer is communication. one must he able to communicate with the father before one can have communion with him. The B of pray CT is petition. One of the purposes of prayer is petition. The C of pray CT. and it's greatest purpose is inter cession.
 The address was enc to make it's hearers think. and that, after all is the main purpose of the religious department of the Y. NJ. c. A. In succeeding in stirring men, Dr. Page accomplished his end.
 There were nearly sixty people at five dropped in half an hour later to hear the speaking. TodaY's luncheon will he at the same hour, noon. Those who have not reserved tickets but wish to do so, may find Sccrc- t@ry Harry Blair at the association this morning.
