The movement in the stock market this
evening turned upon further orders for gold for
export, and the immediate effect is to intensity
the weakness which has been developed In the

On the whole, there has seldom been a time
when there was so little interest IN the markei

plcation for gold for export made considerable
animation during the first hour at declining

The opening was heavy, and under the influence
of orders for gold and the hammering of
traders, everything yielded with considerable
animation until the end OF the first hour, after
which dizziness and stagnation again took
possession OF the market. There were evidences
Of better buying at lowest figures, however, and
in the last hour partial rally took place,
leaving the list as a rule small fractions above
the lowest prices and about the same below

All tho Rarc Ferns.
A story was recently told me by a
lady who had just returned from camp
ing in the Yosemite valley, says writer
in Garden and Forest. a friendly guide,
when asked about the ferns of the re-
gion, answered that he would have to
know her long time before he would
be willing to tell her about the kinds in
the valley, and continued; 81 know YOU
don't mean any harm, but there was q
young woman here from the bay-a
great botanist-and told her of Il fern
that only grew in two places, so far as
knew, in the whole region. Then she
was wild to see it. told her she might
have some leaves to press in her brown
paper books, but warned her not to
pull up any. Don't you s'pose / know
better than to spoil your fern gar

showed her where the stuff grew-onc
place, where the most of 1T was, under
some dry brush I had put there-and
made her promise again not to tell any

looked real pretty, and said she
entirely agreed with me. 1t might be
new species, she remarked, and it
might he named after me if / would let
it be taken away, but then was ex-
actly right, and it belonged right here.
Two or three weeks after that her
camp broke up, and she went up the
valley and dug up every root of the fern
that she could find. Fact. saw her
doing it. When went down to camp
to tell them good-by, that cusscd little
hypocrite sidlcd up and begged me to
take good care of the fcrns--specia1ly
of that now kind! No, mum, I'll show

Arrested on Ills Own orders.

The Two Republics of Mexico tells
the following queer story: A Judge of
San Luis Potosi gave strict orders to
the police that every person found on
the street after eleven o'clock ut night
should be put in Jail. One night the
worthy judge, in very effective dis
gsise, took a stroll Mt midnight to see
whether his orders were duly obeycd.
