TAKING NO CHANCES.

He Wanted to Propose, But There Was
Parrot in His Way.
Somehow she felt that he had come
with his mind made up to propose. She
was as certain of it as she would have
been if he had told her, and conse-
Quently she amused herself by teasing
him for half an hour before she let him
have a chance to come to the point,
says the Chicago Post.
And then he baked.
She couldn't understand it. She
knew that he was on the verge OF ask
ing her to be his wife, but he didn't
put the question. He became sudden
ly very i'll at ease and nervous and
sheered off every time they got any
where near the subject that was upper
most in the mind of each.
She looked at him soulfully, and he
returned the look, but that was as far
as he went. She sighed and he sighed,
but be didn't put his hopes and wishes
into words. She became pensive and
romantic and talked OF the loneliness
She knew, although he did not, that
there were others on the porch, and she
pleaded that she was afraid of the
night air.
He looked around the room anxious
ly, but seemed to find nothing that
gave him any hope. He seemed to be
respondent, but in measure deter
mined.
Mabel" he said at last, speaking
very softly.
Yes" she returned, endeavoring
not to show her agitation.
There is something l wish very
much to say to you
She looked down at the toes of her
boots and said nothing.
He came over to her and took her
hand.
Mabel" he said earnestly, eff you
will take that blamed parrot out of the
room. I'll tell you what it isl
Then she understood why he had
been so nervous, and the parrot was
put where he could not overhear and
repeat what might be said.

WOOL.
Rra1Straets


The market continues slow. with values
for most kinds nominal in the absence of
trade. Manufacturers are not disposed to
buy TO stock up except at liberal conces-
sions from the present low prices, while
thei necessities for the present foot up but
small. Western spectators are buying up
considerable wool in the Territories at bet
ter prices than Eastern buyers will pay.
hence the latter can see no object In cut
ting prices any more TO clean out old wool
when the cost TO replece with new wool
would be greater. The feeling Is that, I'M
I'll the wooden goods market improves and
permits idle machinery to start up. there
is littlep respect of any marked increase in
the demand for wool.

DRY GOODS.
Bradstreets.


Business continues quiet, with conditions
not materially different The call for sup
depression is felt. Cotton fabrics are dull
and values are weak, there being too many
made-up goods on hand TO give buyers
any confidence. The mills have kept up
production to such a point that they are
forced TO sell the goods at the best prices
they can get. Raw cotton has declined
considerably. but this does not affect the
good smarket, as the latter are now SELL
ing below the parity of the cost of raw ma
terial. Printed fabrics are quiet. and there
is a disposition to clean up odd lots at
low prices. Lancaster and Amoskeag
ginghams have been reduced in price to
job at 424c. Dress woolens are dull and
few fall orders are being taken by the
mills. Mems wear woOlenss continue dull
Spring samples are being prepared but
there is little encouragement to show them
as yet.
