The Stock Market Was Generally Weak
 Yesterday.

Yesterday.
 New York, Feb. 15-The week open ed with considerable depression at the stock exchange, the result of the re- ceipt of lower quotations from London and advices that a panicky condition of affairs prevailed on the Vienna bourse in consequence of the Turko- Grecian troubles.
 The foreigners had selling orders in this market for the international stocks and altogether the bears had a fine op- portunity to hammer the market. This they did with vigor and succeeded In dislodging stocks held by timtd spec tators. The circumstances considered, however, the effect upon prices was by no means startling.
 A few of the specialtieS which have a limited market at best yielded some | what sharply, but in the general list the losses were a. point or less, and the furry was soon over. Among the im- portant declines were Colorado Fuel and Iron F per cent, Leather preferred 1s4, Tennesse Coal IT, and American Spirits preferred 1% per cent. That there was free selling of the grangers, Louisville and Nashville and the industrials for the short account was plainly indicated during the after noon when on advices that the Euro pean powers had decided to intervene | in the Turko- Grecian troubles the mar ket took sudden turn for the better. | Prices advanced far more rapidly | than they had declined during the day and the shorts found much difficulty in covering. Sugar moved up IFS, To- | bacco 2, Leather preferred 21s, Tennes- see Coal 23s, Illinois Steel 2 and the balance of the list 4 to 13s per cent. There were two notable exceptions, namely, Manhattan and Western Union, which were pressed for sale throughout the day.
 X Manhattan declined from SEA- to S6&, and the old. story about an issue of bonds was revived. The sale of about 4 4OOO shares of the stock by a broker who usually acts for one of the insides attracted general attention. The stock subsequently, rallied to SS, but closed | at STA, a net loss of 1A per cent. for the day.
 1 The strength of Sugar in the closing | deaIs was attributed to statements | that officials of the company treat I lightly the investigation now in prog ress by the senate committee, and are concerning themselves mainly with the talk of a change in the sugar duties by congress.
 The market closed firm. Net changes show advances of A to B per cent, Su- gar leading. Manhattan, however, lost ty,D cific F per cent,
 The bond market was lower durlng the early session, but recovered in the afternoon and closed firm Sales foot ed up $1,53S,000.

A PRETTY SOCIAL OCCASION.

The Fancy Dress German Given by the
 Ladies of the York Assembly Last
 Night
 One of the prettiest social affairs of the season was the fancy dress german given by the ladies of the York assem- bly at Warner hall last evening. The affair had been planned for some time and certainly the promoters were well paid for their efforts. As several ex- pressed themselves, it was veritable miniature Bradley Martin ball; in fact one of the costumes, that of the Knight of the Maltese Cross,' was worn there. Phelan, the local cos tuner, is responsible for many of the most prominent costumes. Several of the most gorgeous-those worn by Mrs. Schurman and Miss Dow-were made expressly for the occasion by him, and were works of art. The decorations of the hall were palms, flowers and every where were hung hearts of various sizes. A beautiful scene was presented when George H. Leopold, the photog- rapher, grouped the merry dancers at one end of the hall, when flash light was taken, The favors for the german were mostly humorous and comprised rattle boxes, Chinese lanterns, return balls, .boutteniers of violets, etc. MT Malone, who directed the german, wore a handsome costume, representing Don CarlAs. Mrs P B. Schurman imper- sonated in costume Elizabeth of York queen of Henry VII; Miss Alice l.. Wells, lettuce; MT. Ferry, Prince Fran cis I; Harry Dow, Hungarian Huzzar; Miss Jennie Merwin, tambourine girl; Mir. Field, a Mexican; Miss Mae B. Dow. Lady Chesterfield; Miss Lillian Wilcox in black and yellow, a folly; Miss Emma Hart, queen of the fairies; Miss Lucia Brown in white and green; Miss Grace Grinnell in white and red; Mrs. Ayers, Tyrolean peasant; Miss Rogers, flower girl; MT.

The Fate of a Knife-wIeIder.
From the San Francisco Examiner.l

From the San Francisco Examiner,l
 Only a few days ago, as was dutifully commented upon in these columns, a dispatch came from Fresno stating that the young man who had stabbed Miss Black in the neck because she had tilted him was likely to get into serious trouble" We took the liberty of hoping that the dispatch was not inspired by spirit over sanguine, and, really desired that the young man would do as predicted. But this was in the interest of justice, and not by any meaus a wanton brutality. If memory serves we went so far aa to wish that the young man might be kicked by big brother, or go to jail. There was no hint of cruel and unusual punishment, nor even of ha nging.
 The telegram has proved prophetic. Alas for the young man who went a-wooing with glittering blade. To his last day he will regret the act, and until, perchance in hope of relief, he use the same blade deftly on his own jugular, he is destined to be haunted by the memory of his crime. The young woman in the case, the wound in her neck healed, evidently retained one in her heart, urging her on to vengeance. There was no gleam of pity in the course she took. With unfalter- ing step she sought the office of the County Clerk, procured license. and,. unrelenting to the end, she married that miserable man. With the utmost faith that justice is getting in fine work, we hasten to congratulate the pair.

According to the story told by two Danish officers, AIessrs Oloufsen and PhiliDsen. who have just returned from the Pamir country in Asia, bringing sev- eral hundred photographs of people and scenery not before visited by Euro pcans. there exist in that elevated part of the world tribes of very small men, who worship fire and are entirely un- civilized, and whose domestic animals are at least as remarkable as the people themselves for their small size. The ex- plorers report, for instance, that the cows they saw were not larger than ordinary foa1s, that the donkeys were of the stature of large dogs, and that the sheep resemble small poodles in size.-Youth's Companion.
