San Francisco Market Review.

San Francisco Market Review.
+ SAN FRANCISCO, May 2O-The produce mar.
kets were generally quiet this morning.
The fruit market is doing we'll in nearly all
lines except oranges. Cherries and berries are
doing very well. The first lot of new apples was
received this morning, there being only six
boxes in all. They were small, and brought 81
a box. Gamers are on the lookout for fruit
and are running heavily on white cherries, as
at the present time they are without an ade.
quate supply. Agents throughout the interior
are offering $50 ton for apricots on the trees
Growers are holding off for two cents per pound
in the country. There is also good demand in
the country for green prunes, buyers paying 2
cents for fruit for drying purposes

CHAPTER /.


Along row Of some dozen or so great
stone mills, with roofs tall and steep, or
hipped and gabled, and with walls
whitened with -four, gaping by open
sheds and half doors upon sunny stretch
Of dusty road, they stand upon the steep,
bluf shore of a river. Upon the road
they are two stories high; upon the river
front they are four, five, or even six. In
some seasons sloops, briggs and barks are
Iashed to the river walls loading with
barrels of -four or cornmeal, the shouts
OF the stevedores and the creaking of
blocks and tackles echoing from stony
wall TO stony wall. On the decks lounge
few idle sailors in baggy bretches or
petticoats. club queues down their backs
and cooked hats or Monterey caps upon
their heads; and upon the road in front
Of the mill doors stand clustered the
queer old vehicles of the day farmers
carts, coopers carts, great Conestoga
wagons dragged by teams Of eight, ten
OF twelve mules, and which travel some-
times even as far as Pittsburg
Upon the farther side of the road from
The mills is the rniIlrace, trimming with
the speeding waters that in the night
time fill the silence with the brawling of
their hurrying rush. Here and there
side streams shoot under the bridges and
lift fioodgates and set the huge, grooming
wheels a-tu1ning, and the rude machin
cry and great rnillstones to jarring and
turning in answer.
Such, one hundred years ago, were the
famous old Brandywine -four mills,
which ground more meal during the
Revolution and for the old West India
trade than was ground at any other
place IN the country.

she added, '-but. with ia grimaee, when
be whips he whips hard.
The young officer laughed aloud. "And
that was your wonderful secret, was it?''
said he.
Eyes, said Matte; 81 did not want
the soldiers to know it for fear they'd
laugh at mo- Then suddenly There
is a farm house mile up the road yonder,
and Mr.. Sparks told me to stop there for
a letter if you'd wait till AIRS. Penny
wrote it.
"No," said the young officer. .sWe
make no stops till we get to Chester
Very well, = said Matte with show
of Indifference, Just as you please. 1t
wouldn't take over fifteen minutes, and
she can null crock Of the best hard
cider to be had in the state of Delaware"
The young soldier rode on for awhile
in silence. He had been marching in the
rain with the three men since daylight
that morning He had had nothing to
eat but piece of bread and meat, and
nothing to drink bat cup of iukewarm
tea, which he had swallowed in Will
mington The thought Of the mulled
cider and the warm rest for few min
utes was alluring.
"Where is the houses" said he sud-
denly.
"Oh, half mile or SO along the road. !"
said Matte. 1T don't matter if you
won't stop. 1t was only letter that
was to take if l had gone to Chester
yesterday
The young officer refined back his horse

hind, and a few words passed between

ward to the cart again, 'swe'l stop for

passed her cousin in the entry
Yes, said Jane Penny 10 an answer
ing whisper; and then, Don't give way.
Matte
Don't speak to mel" gasped the poor
girl
"Hallool" said the corporal when they
came out into the rain, they've stood
the barrel on endl''
And 50 they had, but it was not the
same barrel that Matte had brought
with her from the Brandywine mills.
She saw that at flash, and then re-
membered that her uncle had sent a
double barrel one time to Friend Penny
to pack smoked hams in for the winter.
That long, dreadful ride to Chester al
ways remained in her memory like some
horrid nightmare She had dim recol-
lection Of staring straight before her, of
what seemed to her the unending road,
the fine rain dashing in her face and
bitter tightness in her throat. But at
last it was ended, and she lay upon the
bed in her aunt's spare room sobbing
and crying as though her heart would
break.
Perhaps no woman before or since
that time has carried her lover in -four
barrel and then exchanged him for
smoked hams.
Major Van Cleft made every effort to
find the name and address of the old
captain Of troopers that suffered Matte
to pass along the road that day, but it
was not until he had been married
twelvemonth that he was successful.
Then he sent him on behalf of his wife
