Sometimes it is the wise words of
an infant that impress us more than
those carefully thought out by the
sage. Therefore we quote the words
of the most innocent of mothers who
has in charge a beautiful daughter:
Il will not interfere with her mar
riage. though I do not exactly ap-
provo of the man she has chosen.
All have to abide by the fate
they make for themselves. ! would
have preferred some one else, but
her heart has decided for her, and
Cupid, after all, is the best judge"
Mothers, sisters, friends, take this
lesson to heart You will never be
thanked If you interfere, and no
matter whether marriage turns
out well or i'll the adviser, the third
party, is seldom considered. Advice
in business may go-in love it does
not count. Remember this and save
yourself time and annoyance by
keeping to yourself any wise re-
marks that you think the occasion
requires or your own conscience de-

Where to Plan. Watermelon.

Several young farmers were dis

pressed as to the most desirable soil,
the best seed, the best fertilizer and
the like, and finally one of the group
accosted On aged colored man who
happened to pass. The question was
stated, and the young man said:
Come now, Uncle Winter, what
is your opinion about all this? You
must have made many a fine crop
in your time"
The old mans eyes twinkled. He
took off his hat, scratched his gray
wool and answered:

The Russian "kakochnik" Ia one

century by the ladies of the court,
who have elaborated IL into a red

In Austria Hungary is found the
greatest divergence in the matter Of

peasant is so fetching that the
wealthy ladies copy il when on their
estates. 1t consists of q short puffy
skirt of crimson and yellow, a small

and an artistically knotted head

plishing a national object exempted
its stockholders from liability under
the constitution and laws of California
to ordinary creditors"
Reference is made in the opinion to
the obligation of Pacific roads to pay
the United States bonds at maturity,
which obligation, the opinion holds,
affords 'cogent reasons apart from
the words of the act of congress, why
rule should not be applied to the
stockholders of the Central Pacific
Railroad company which confessedly
cannot be applied to stockholders of
the Union Pacific Railroad company.
Both corporations participated in the
execution OF the purposes of congress.
Each received franchises and powers
from the federal government to be
eXerted for objects of national con-
Germ. Although the Central Pacific
Railroad company of California became
an artificial being, under the laws of
that state, its road owes its eX-
istence to the national government;
for that was accomplished in the ex-
ercise of privileges granted by. and
because of the aid derived from the
United States"
A brief argument is then entered up
on to show that the Central Pacific ac-
cepted the conditions imposed by the
government and to show that national
aid was necessary to its construction of
the line, thus placing it also in this re-
spect on the same footing as the Union
Pacific.
The opinion concludes as follows:
The relations between the Califor
MIA corporation and the state we're of
no concern to the national government
at the time purpose was formed to IS
tablish a great highway across the con-
tinent for governmental and public use.
Congress chose this existing artificial
being as an instrumentality to accom-
plish national ends and the relations
between the United States and that
corporation ought to be determined by
the enactments which established those
relations, and if these enactments do
not expressly, nor by implication, sub
Ject the stockholders of such corpora
ton to liability for it's debts, it is to
be presumed that congress intended to
waive its right to impose any such liza
bflity.
'"The views we have expressed rem
der it unnecessary to consider any
other question in the case We are of
the opinion that the bill filed by the
United States was properly dismissed,
and that the order of the circuit court
of appeals affirming such dismissal was
correct. The Judgment is therefore af-

NEW YORK, March 2.-Trade in stocks
was steady today. Sales of Sugar reached
the largest of any shares, and the deals
in railroad shares exceeded those in COM
merca1 by large majority. A marked
depression in prices was noted at the
opening, the contributing influences being
chiefly the news of the anti-American
demonstrations by the populace at Bar
celona and other places in Spain and the
formal declaration of the insolvency of
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. Western
Union was depressed an extreme 13s per
cent. on the theory that the bankruptcy
of the Baltimore & Ohio would result in
the throwing of that stock upon the mar
ket. On the strength of denialS of the
probability of such contingency a rally Of
two points from the lowest was made
There were also rumorS to the effect that
100000 of its Western Union stock had
been secretly sold by the Baltimore &
Ohio management a, year ago. This story
was also denied by parties claiming to be
well informed. The general list suffered

being most prominent. The reactonary
movement was soon checked and large
part of the loss was recovered. The mar
ket then again reacted on renewed firm
ness in the sterling exchange market. A
revival of strength was noted towards
midday on foreign and local commission
buying and covering by shorts. The inn
pTovements were most important in the
high priced industrials. the grangers,

specialtios. The general market proved
superior to the weakness in Tobacco, but

anticipation of prompt action by the

tions. Speculation left off weak in tone.
although the final prices, as a rule.

The market was irregular in early deal
