the moan of the pines--a moan that
seems a wall raised over the dead and

At the station at which | was await

and bustling town of Meadow Lake
many teamsters had gathered in. Cham

On h road. The men freighting over
the mountains always strove to reach
that hating place. Until long after
dark the sound of bells was heard on
the pine bordered road, and the huge
prairie schooners came rolling in. Aft
er supper found the immense barroom
almost filled with the transfers. and
more were still arriving, for a full moon
vas lighting up all the mountains.
The men were all talking horse" and
mule" and my head being filled with
thoughts of mines and gold, l paid but
a dreamy sort of attention to the con-
versation. Presently, however. one Of
the teamsters said, with a good deal OF
emphasis, II tell you what, Johnny, if
you hadn't "a, hitched onto me and
helped me up that air last hill, I'd IA
bin at the foot of it yit!"
"That's all right, Bill. You know /

No. sir, by the beard of Baiaam, the
son Of BeOrl L have my opinion of a
man that will do a trick like that"
Instantly l was all attention. AL

and had never heard it since-I at once
recollected where and under what cir
cumstances l had before heard it. /
soon had the man who had sworn by
the beard Of Balaam safely cornered at
some distance from the main throng of
guests. l then asked him if he remem-

emigrant family out Of a desert over in

it. But, stranger, how do you happen
to know about that? You amt the

you are! Yoa are the very fellow that
came out on the road and got me to go
down into the desert after the family!
Give me your hand!"
Having recovered my hand from John
Henderson's fearful grasp and straight
ened out my benumbed fingers, l said:
Il did not remember your face. Mr..
Henderson, for now you are bearded like
the pard, but 1 recollected your peculiar
style of oath. You used it once that

Ex-Empress Eugene.

The ex-Empress Eugene has settled
down into the solitude which best ena-
bles her to endure her memorable and
cumulative sorrows. Her tall, sad fig
ure goes in and out among US with only
the recognition of silent sympathy. The
empress likes to have communication
with as few people as possible. For
instance, when she shops-she does her
own shopping-she likes to be waited
on by the same salesman always. l
was witness Of an incident of this sort
the other day. The empress walked
into a we'll known west end shop and
asked for Mr. -, naming n of the
head men. She was told he was out.

call again and went away. l was told
that she certainly would come again;

by the circumstances Of their birth,
that the wild scenes ia which SCOTS

that the ballad writing led naturally in
its turn TO romance. and that the higL

A political friend. who knew Lord
Palmerston intimately, relates that he
was not always to be depended on in
keeping appointments. He once fixed
2 O'Clock to dine with the officials of a
provincial town, but failed to turn up.
When O'Clock struck and he still was
absent, the company in sheer despera-
ton sat down and had reached only the
second course when the great man ap-
peared. All expected an apology for
the delay that had spoiled their dinner,

New York.

NEW YORK, March 16.-The seignior-
age measure was the subject of much
conjecture, and the financial community
of the city seem to be a unit against it,
but the gold exports were not factor
of the speculative situation at all. and
the greatest advance was made just
after the announcement of the projected
shipments was made. London was a
buyer during the morning of Atchison,
st. Paul, Erie and New \ ork Central
and Louisville d Nashville. but only in
small amounts. and the room traders
were generally on the long side of the
market. There was at no time very
great pressure to sell. At the
opening prices were mostly frac-
ton higher than the closing
figures Of yesterday. Gordage was
notably strong on report that the
United States Cordage company had
entered into an agreements with the
National Cordage company by which
the interests of the latter were materi-
ally benefited. This apparently we'll

of the shares of the National Cordage,
causing them to rapidly advance, the
common selling up ~ and the preferred

ings the general list advanced A@I
per cent, the latter Chicago Gas. A
slight reaction was soon made, but the
speculation soon recovered its
tone, and an upward move
ment began which continued in
force up to midday, an improvement
being recorded of 4@14 per cent, Gen
eral Electric. Sugar. Western Union, the
grangers, Louisville & Nashville lead

very sluggish, and some few shares de-
clined small fraction. but the market
was generally held firmly until about
1:30 O'Clock, when a small raid was
made on Chicago Gas, based on Chica-
go adyices that the Hyde Park Gas COM
pany ordinance would certainly pass.
The result was drop of Is per cent in

rest of the list smaller fraction. The

brief duration, and during the last hour

LUCANiA's FAST TRIP.
"A New Winter Record Is Made
auC for Ocean FLYERS.

81 a ENC" w tuNCI AhCCOFu As haQe
5auC for Ocean Flyers.
QUEENSTOWN March 16.-The Cunard
line steamer Lucania, from New York,
which arrived here at 8 O'Clock, made
the trip in days Is hours and IL min
utes. While this trip is one hour and
four minutes less than that made by
the Campania in November last, it
really makes new winter record, as
the CamDanla's record of days ~
hours and minutes was made over the
shortest nnrtherly route. On the pres
ent voyage of the LucanIa the vessel
covered 1894 miles over the long south
erIy route. This is eighty two miles
more than the Campania covered
on her record breaking trip. The
hourly average time by the Lucania was
21.73 knots; had she travelled the north
erly route and made the same average
time. and covered the same number of
miles as the Campania, her time would
of been days hours and "a minutes,
or 2 hours and 43 minutes less than the
present record. In calculating speed of
a steamer. the rate covered per hour is
the real test Of her ability, and the
Lucania's speed OF 21.73 has not been
eQualed by any other vessel. If she
does as we'll on her return trip TO New
York, she will establish new western
record, as tlfe same steamer, when she
made the western record of days, 10
hours and AZ minutes in November.
