The Stock Market.

New York, Oct. 5-Speculative attention was directed to the American Sugar Refining company's shares to-day by the cut in prices of the product, Advices from the sugar dis trict were that dealers were holding off in expectation of further reductions and that a lively war in the trade was looked for. Wall street received the various developments with some concern, as 1t was felt that re- neWed iquidations in Sugar would tend to deprive the market of the outside support which 1t was now experiencing and that the efforts which were being made to sustain various speclalties would be abandoned. Subsequent developments, however, served to reassure the street. as supporting orders were placed all around and the drop in Sugar of three points to 11A was without appreciable effect. The tirmness of the gen. other industrials by a. leading interest brought about q rally of two points in Sugar irregularity was quite pronounced throughout the day and the list gave little terval at the start anf again in the late ses- sion The absence Of q decisive tone led to the cancellation of some commission house orders and Londos also alternately bought and sold.

slnrrl.a couri.. Ar...

A statistictan has published the re-
suits OF his investigation of the rela-
tive ages of husbands and their wives
in the various capitals of Europe. He
discovered tina; marriages are more
frequent where the husband Is two or
three years older than the wife. Wom.
en- under twenty years of age, however.
usually take unto themselves husbands
six or seven years older than them
selves. The cases in which the man
was year younger than the woman
were almost as numerous as those in
which he was six or seven years older.
The first condition was true of CT per
cent of all married couples, and the lat
ter condition of Ga per cent. The
cases where the husband was six or
seven years younger than the wife
were almost Just As numerous as those
where he was thirteen or fourteen
years older Only two cases were dis
covered where the husband was thirty
five years the senior, one case where
he was the older by forty-seven years.
One case WIS discovered where the
wife was thirty-four years older than
the husband. Twelve and three -tenths
per cent of all men who marry women
under twenty years of age according
to the statlstician. are between twenty
six and twenty-seven years old.

The art OF conversation has suffered
In England from the example OF its
most famous professor. Dr.. Johnson
undsTstood 1t theoretically, but even
80 only to limited extent. He Was
supposed to form his view Of 1t in ac-
cordance with the rule of Bacon. says
the Nineteenth Century. I'm all kinds
OF speech. whether pleasant. grave, Sc
we're or ordinary. II is convenien; to
speak ieisurcly and rather drawiing-

confounds the memory and oftentimes.
besides the unseemIiness, drives a man
either TO stammering or nonplus. or
harping on that which should follow
whereas slow speech conformeth the
memory, addeth a conceit Of wisdom
to the hearers. addeth seemliness OF
speech and countenance" This does
not strike one as a model for him who
would either be brilliant or agreeable.
and excludes naturalness. which Is one
OF the greatest charms OF conversation.

Bacon's precept is very certain. So

his ever being at nonplus is ridi-

At loss for a repartee from sheer
indignation. The rights OF his little
passage of arms with Adam Smith are
much disputed. Tha. he remarked I:
