The Market Closed Strong and Confident
 With Increased Prices.
 New York, May 2-If there have been any doubts existing as to the character of the current speculation, to-day's op- erations at the stock exchange ought to dispel them. For several days past the chronic bears, whenever the upward movement Jagged, have begged away at the list, at one using the light earn ings of the grangers and at another the apparent inability of the subsidiary of- hcials of the anthracite coal roads to get together on the question of the May output. This, 1t was claimed, would in. evitably lead to ruinous coal war.
 To-day, however, the coal sales agents met and agreed to mine three days a week instead of working daily to their full capacity, and even the Reading rep resentative stated that his company would not stand in the way of settle ment of the troubles now perplexing the trade. This was severe disappoint- ment to the wiseacres of the street, who have been selling the coalers short on the prospect of war, and in the last hour of business there was some heavy buying to cover contracts in various parts of the list put out at lower fig- ures. Reading moved up from 165a to TIE, Jersey Central from 95A to 961s, Delaware and Hudson from 129 to 130, and Lackawanna from 159 to 160.
 Sugar was more active than the coal CTS. Over 50,000 shares of the stock were traded in at 111% @1131s closing at 112%. The strength of the stock was attribut- ed to buying by new bull pool. Re- fined was advanced again to-day for one grade of sugar, This appears to be a part of the bull program. Chicago Gas and Leather were also more active at higher range. The West and Stan- dard oil interests bought the former, and it was said that the chances for favorable legislation by the Illinois leg islature were favorable. The grangers were stimulated by good crop news and improved about A@7s per cent.
 Among the low priced stocks Louis vile, New Albany and Chicago, Hook ing Valley and Pacific Mail scored high CT figures. Pullman Palace Car sold at TIT, the best price for a long time past The market closed strong and conf1- dent. Net changes for the day show gains of 4 to.2 per cent,
 The bond market was active and @ brisk demand prevailed throughout the day. Sales were $2,S62,000.
 Following are the closing prices re- ported by Prince & Whitely, bankers and brokers, 46 Broadway. New York, and 15 Center street, New Haven.

"For After Awhile.o

People, as rule, are quick to appre-
ciate and understand any kindly ac-
ton, particularly on the part of roy
atty. When the royal family moved to
San Sebastian recently from the Span
ish capital, luncheon was given by
the city in honorof the guests. As the
repast was not served until three
o'clock, the king had already lunched,
and was not hungry. In order to show
his appreciation of the action of his
subjects, however, he took two large
pieces of cake from plate, and re-
marking to neighbour: They are for
after awhile" placed them in his pock-
ct. This childish action greatly pleased
the people of San Sebastian. = Youths

A Handy Continuance Where Room ID
Lacking.
Nearly score of years ago an in.
genious woman who occupied rooms in
house in southern city found her
quarters rather too cramped for con.
venience. and set about arranging
some device togive herself more room
She secured lry-goods packing-box,
and opening window in her room
slid the box out upon the sill, and with
a couple of strong screws attached it
to the window frame. 1t just filed
the space and extended some distance
above the middle sash. In this box
she arranged number of small
| shelves, brackets and hooks, and in it
placed the gas stove, connected by a
rubber tube with one of the burners
of the chandelier. In this convenient
| and accessible addition she prepared
all her meals for more than year.
The house was situated so that the
rear looked out upon an alley, and the
box caused no annoyance to anybody.
Finding it desirable to make change
in her quarters, she tried the same ex-
pertinent in her new location, much to
the disgust of the owner of the house,
who was extremely whimsical, and pro-
tested that the building might be in
iurcd.
1t is very easy matter to fix up a
box in this way, and the only wonder
is that it is not more frequently done.
OF course, it shuts off the light from
one window, for the curtain must be
kept closed to conceal the cooking APP
paratus
1t is surprising what an amount Of
work may be done in a little place like
this il one is neat and careful. The
inventor of this convenience arranged
at one time to have such box made
and fitted with strong hinges, SO that
when not in use it SWING outso as to
leave the window free, but an entire
change in her circumstances prevented
putting the box up for that purpose.
In little annex of this kind, it must
be remembered that articles that
would be affected by extreme heat or
cold could not be kept, as the heat
of the sun and the frost of winter
would spoil them. The lady
who first made this expert
ment had a small nursery refrigerator
or ice box in her ROOM in which all of
the perishables were kept. This. box
had tank at one side for ice and a
faucet She took very good care to
get as pure ice as possible, then, when
it was melted, she drew the water into
a pitcher, strained it through several
thicknesses of cloth and used it for
her toilet. 1t was matter of some
surprise to her friends how she Sc
cured such delightful soft water, but
she kept the secret to herself and en-
joyed the luxury.
Where house has inside blinds,
swinging closets of this kind can be
managed with the greatest ease, and
if the house is small, are of untold adj
vantage in more ways than one.-NY.

Terrible Plight of n Portuguese Fisher
man In u Southern Sea.
"When we were coming up the
coast" said a recently returned voy-
ager from South America, 1--WE had Tor
several days dead calm, the sea lying
like n sheet of glass under broiling
sun On one of these days, as | was
pacing the deck, discovered what
looked to be q man standing on the
water. As we were quite out OF sight
of land the apparent spectacle seemed
to be inexplicable, but picking up
spy glass and scanning the figure care
fully was convinced that my first inn
preston was correct, and as the cap
tain and his officers were of the same
opinion twas Immediately determined
upon to direct the ships course toward
the mysterious figure. 4
"When we had approached within a
certain distance we could make out
that the man was standing on the seat
of small boat which was nearly
filed with water, and that all about
him in the water was an enormous
school Of sharks
Orders were given to lower a boat,
and when near enough to cast a light
rope over the bow Of the beleagured
craft and gently tow it with its up
right occupant back to the ship. This
was successfully accomplished and 1t
was sight never to be forgotten when
the little convoy arrived-the man still
standing iminovable as statue with
fixed gaze, like one who had been
struck dead while watching terrible
horror. Ht4

he sank to the deck in what seemed a
dead faint, and 1t was hours before he
was able to give any account Of him

and said that he had gone out in his
boat to fish, and having been without
due rest for several nights had fallen
asleep, and when he awoke it was to
find himself far from land, one oar
gone, his boat half filed with water
and all about him sharks. He had al
ways heard that sharks would jump
out of the water at man in motion,
but never ut one who remained per-
fectly still. But finding his position
in the water cramped and unbearable
he had made desperate move. He
planted himself upright on the deck
of the boat, hoping meanwhile TO
think out way OF escape. But tho
longer he remained standing the more
desperate grew his chances, and for
nearly three days, in the boiling sun,
in hunger. sleeplessness and in mo-
mentary expectation of horrible
death, he had stood until every muscle
