MARRIAGE MARKETS.
A Queer Institution of the Berber
 Tribes of Morocco.
Bazars Where the Feminine Merchant Sells Herself with the Purchase of Masculine Customer Who Is
 to Her Liking.

Among the Kabyle clans in northern Africa women are looked upon as chat tels to be sold like other possessions, and they are accordingly disposed of to the person who makes the highest offer to the father or other male guardian. Many of the Berber tribes of Morocco, Algiers and Tunis hold yearly marriage riageable girls and widows from the neigh hboring villages are brought. The markets are attended not only by young men and old on the lookout for wife, but also by curious crowd anxious to see what lots are for sale and what prices they fetch. The girls when on view are allowed to have a voice in the selection of their husbands, and may decline any proposal.
 They are arranged in rows right across the market place, decked in the most telling Berber costumes; painted, powdered and patched in the highest style of Kabyle art; loaded down with rings and bangles, brooches, chains and coins enough to stock jewellers shop. The jewels are rarely the girls property, but are borrowed for the occasion from friends and neighbors, as every village takes pride in it's girls and wishes them to serve well. The young women are all seated on small squares of carpet spread upon the ground. Each has an elderly woman beside her, and in front she has, as if for sale, small roll of stuff woven by her own hands. The faces of the girls are uncovered, for Berber women do not wear the face

concealing haik of the Arabs, but it is impossible to tell whether they are pretty or not, for their faces and fore heads are so paintedand even tattooed that the natural features cannot be made out.
 Here is description of a girl of six teen: Yellow bars are painted across her face and a patch of gold foil is stuck on her right cheek; her forehead is tattooed with blue circle and her lips and gums are well reddened. Her hair is arranged in narrow plaits, from the end of each of which dangle rib bon and a coin. She wears a long sleeved, red silk garment, falling from her shoulders haEZ7ay down her legs, and red silk scarf, worn like plaid across the left shoulder, where it is fastened by jeweled gold brooch. The legs from the knees down are bare. but the feet are inclosed in little vel low slippers, with gold-embroidered edges and jeweled tops, while round the ankles is double row of bangles with bells attached. On her head is Phrygian cap with thick corded silk border and fringed ends, to which tiny coins are fixed, hanging over the fore head down to the eyebrows. To pair of small earrings are attached two larger rings, six inches in diameter, from which dangle little bells. A heavy necklace is round her neck and below that a massive chain with a central aI, Ie- band of gold, and below it seven ban gles, to which bells are fastened. An other girl may nave her whole face painted yellow, with little stars and suns and moons in silverfoil pasted over it. Another has blue circles tat tooed all over her cheeks. The widows wear white cloth fastened to the top of the head and secured by brooch at the waist.
 The man who wishes to purchase steps up to the woman of his choice and asks the price of the woven stuff before her. If he pleases her she names very low figure, then loud, 1 shrill and prolonged ''Yu-yu-yu-u-u" uttered by the old woman at her side announces that q bargain has been made and the crowd shouts its approv- al If she does rot care for the man she names an ahsurdly high price then he walks off to inspect the next lot. The girls are perfectly self-possessed. The young men are good deal more nervous, and look as sheepish as a Eu- ropean might in their place. They are dressed in their best, in long red burnous, with high straw hats sur mounted by cabbage-shaped plumes. One will spend an hour, and sometimes two or three, walking about the girl he wants before he dares to ask the price of the woven roll The girls watch the men out of the corners of their eyes, apparently unconcerned, chatting and laughing at them. When the suitor presents himself they eye him boldly from head to foot as they would horse, and if he suits he gets a prompt answer. Sometimes the old woman will encourage bashful youth with a wink or nod. The old men set to work in business-lil1e manner and walk down the line making their proposal to one after another until they find some one who will accept their offer.

Working on the Tariff.

Washington, Feb. 1.-The senate sub
committee on tariff is sitting almost con-
stantly now, not only through the day,
but we'll into the night, and is holding
frequent conferences with the full Demo
cratic membership of the committee. The
subcommittee has almost completed its
work on the minor "details of the bill. but
the more Important questions which have
puzzled them from the beginning, unless
it may be the income tax, are stall giving
them worry, and many Of them do not
appear to be any nearer settled now than
they were when the bill first reached
the senate. There no longer appears q
disposition to change the income tax in
any way, and it may be accepted that
it will be returned. Indications Still
point to an increase of the whisky tax tc
$1.20 per gallon and an extension of the
bonded period, though there is some dis
agreement i'll the committee.
