A ceastins Experience In the Alps.

II had a coasting experience dur
ing q visit to Switzerland that was
as exciting as it was novel;" remarked
II. .Woodson, OF Philadelphia. "One
day we made up party OF four Ia
dies and Us many gentlemen to make
a short trip up among the Alps. Ar
irving ut the top Of a great declivity
OF frozen snow, our guide stopped,
and, addressing himself to the ladies,
asked how they would enjoy coasting
down the hill? As we had brought no
sleds with us or any other contriv.
ance for coasting, they looked ut him
in establishment and asked him to
explain. This he did, and We follow
ed his instructions to the letter. Each
of the gentlemen folded his overcoat
in four and the lady whom he was to
pilot down the hill took seat on
her shawl, the ends OF which she
wound about her feet, directly be-
hind him, the gentleman holding her
firmly by the ankles. Then " u
given signal we started off, dragging
our companions, laughing and utter
ing little shrieks, after us. We went
down the hill like shot, and at the
bottom arose u trifie giddy, but
otherwise none the worse for our ex-
periencc. list. Louis Globe-Dcm0.

At that moment the opening bars
Of q brilliant waltz came pealing
through the tall windows.
Perhaps So replied Lady Sciva
hastily, and she rose to her feet.
And now you must take me back
to the ballroom quick. | am engaged
for the next dance"
Gordon Melrose gazed Mt her in
astonishmcnt. There was u joyous
note in her voice which COMPOUNDED
him. Silence he was prepared for
the silence Of sorrow which Is too
deep for words, or the passionate
complaint Of n deeply injured woman.
But not this.
Come, Mr.. Melrose. l can't go
back to the ballroom alonev' she
cried impatiently, and she moved to-
ward the open windows.
Melrose sprang to his feet at once
and escorted her back to the ballroom.
At the window a tall, handsome man
claimed her.
II am sorry" Melrose heard her
say as she went of on the strangers
arm. ~ got up the moment the mu.
sic began, but my partner dawdled
and l couldn't fly in alone"
As they whirled of in the crowd
Of dancers Melrose caught q mo-
mentary glimpse Of her face. It was
radiant as II TRANSPORTED. The man
was bending over her, whispering in
her eur, and his lips approached her
hair.
"Who Is that dancing with Lady
sciva" inquired Melrose Of another
man.
"Oh, that's Jack Hardness, Of the
Rifles, He's a lucky dog! When
old Lord Sciva died he left his widow
oil his property absolutely. She
must be worth some twenty thOus-
and year ut least, and has n house
in Grosvenor place and fine place In
Derbyshire."
But what has Lord Selves will
to do with this Mr.. Harkness?"
what! Don't you know? Why,
they IRE to be married ut the end Of
the month. 49, London World.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK, August 22-Early trad
Ing at the Stock Exchange was character
lied by fsverishness. and the course Of
prices was very irregular. a drive was
nude at the start against the Changers
and Sugar. and the bears We're more in
evidence than for days past They ac-
complished little. however, and after the
expiration of the first hour Of business
they were compelled to act on the de-
fcnsive. Their sales in the early trading
brought about a decline Of bQ9. per cent.

movement. but the declining tendency was
soon checked. and near IL O'Clock specu-
