Pleasures Of the Moving Season.

Saturday prudent, elderly wom-
an, was observed skirmishing around
West Harrison street, evidently on
house-taking thoughts intent. She
called ut one house, and when the
bell was answered by woman with
her hair done up in wispy queue
behind, and -four all over her arms,
said affably:
"Good morning. Are you going
to stay in this house this year9"
"Cculdn't you see there was no ito
let up ON it2 OF course we are; VIC
own it." replied the woman very
shortly.
20, / don't want 10 take it," blandly
answered the visitor; II have as good
as taken the house next door. Do
you burn wood, or hard or soft coal
And do you make your bread, or buy
III And what sort of sugar do you
use9 And how many dishes and
spoons have you got2"
"Ah-why, are you madY" gasped
the womsn of the house.
20, nothing" composedly remark
ed her curious visitor, "onlyI always
like to know what sort of neighbors
am likely to have, what things they
will be likely to borrow, and so on,
because it makes quite an item in the
course of the year. The last place l
had over on Adams street they all
used granulated sugar, and the diff
ference Of living there, compared
with what it had been on May street.
where they mostly used coffee sugar,
was very considerable"
By this time the resident had re-
covered her senses, and jumped for
broomstick, shrieking:
"Take your dollar-store jewelry and
your made-over cheap silk dress off
of my doorstep or I'll fit you for
new set of six-dollar teeth. and II
false front uglier than the one you've
got on" and her visitor departed, re-
marking placidIy:
"The poor creature seems uniriend-
". She must take good deal OF
trouble with this front garden
think l shall keep hens. - Chicago

Popping the Question.

young lady home on Sunday even

performing both services last Sunday
night, suddenly said to her:

"Why-no," she answered, in sur
prise.
"Do you walk in your sleep9" he
next inquired.
"No, SIR"
He moved his chair an inch closer,
and with increased interest asked:
"Do you snorea"

uneasily at him.
At this reply his eyes fairly spark.
led. His lips eagerly parted, and as
he gave his chair another hitch, be
briskly inquired:
"Do you throw the combings from
your hair IN the wash basin2"
"What's thata" she asked, with a
blank face.
He repeated the question, although
with increased nervousness.
"No, I DON'T" she answered, In
some haste.
Again his chair went forward,
while his agitation grew SO great that
he could scarcely MAINTAIN his place
upon it, as he further asked:
ado you clean out the comb when
you are through"
"Ot course I do" she said, staring
at him with all her might.
In an instant he was on his knees
before her, his eyes ablaze with flame,
and his hands outstretched.
"Oh, my deal Miss, I love you,"
he psssionately cried, ~ give my
whole heart up to you. Love me
and will be your slave. Love me
as I love you, and l will do every
thing on earth for you. Oh, will you
take me to be your lover, your hus-
band, your protector, your every
thing2"
1t was critical moment for a
young woman of her years, but she
was equal to the emergency, as a
woman generally is, and she scooped
him in.-[Danbury News.

Tobacco Trade

Mr.. Steady, superintendent OF state to.
bacco warehouse, is in the city. We
learn from him that the Huntington
warehouse is in successful operation. The
sales al that point average Is cents per
100 lbs better prices than at Cincinnati
and Richmond, and fully 81 so per 100
lbs better than Baltimore FOR the same
grades Of tobacco.
Mr.. Steady has been for the past week
visiting the tobacco packers of Tyler,
Doddridge, Peasants and Wetzel coun-
ties and has been greatly encouraged by
them to push the Petersburg house
into operation. The season so far has
been unfavorable for packing until this
week, and now that sessonsble rains have
occurred, he is promised goodly snip
ment TO the warehouse at Psrkers burg.
We learn also that the main reason
why some of the Ohio dealers oppose the
warehouse al Bellsire, is that il would
benefit the grower, and in time, perhaps,
break up the trade OF packers and furnish
to the growers the needed opportunity to
market his crop free from the depressip o
prices of profits of middle men. MI.
Steady informs US that buyers from
Richmond, New York, Cincinnati and
Charleston attended the sales at Hunt
ington, and have established branch
purchasing agencies st that point, and
will do the same at Psrkersburg at once.
SO thss tobsccos will be sold for some
thing like their value, as manufacturers,
shippers and stemmers all purchase in
competition.

public interest begins to deepen, and
should the day prove propitious, and no
accident intervene, there will be an i'm

OF both contestants are sanguine, and
considerable money will change hands
on the result. The betting so tar ia about
even. In some strong Morris localities
he gets the odds, and the same is true
OF Schsrti. The past record OF the
men, coupled with the evident
deter ninstIon of both to win If possible,
has ter dency to make betters conservs-
tive and they are not disposed to give
much odds or speculate recklessly on tn e
result. At Garlic and Schartf's saloon,
yesterday, 81 900 were taken even, and
Mr.. Carrie says he expects to see 1900
more taken to day, as overtures ~ that
extent have been made. Pools were sold
at the Friendship Saloon, on Diamond
alley, lsst night, and at the Lit
tie Central, on Market alley
At the former place Sehartt had the
call, pools selling at $40 to SIG. At
the Little Central Morris had the call,
selling IS to So. In addition to these
three, even bets were accepted yesterday,
$500, 500 and 1925. Mr.. earle, Schartfs
business partner, was up at the course
yesterday evening. He reports both
men in good health and spirits and
everything connected with the course,
etc, in spple-pie order. Excursion trains
will be run over both the Connellsyil.e
