The Stock Market.

New York, April S.--The stock ex- change was open to-day for the first time on Good Friday in over thirty years. When it was decided on Tues day evening, in response to motion put on the board to forego the usual holiday it was expected that the pres- ident's message would be presented to congress on Wednesday and that by Friday the shock of war might have come. The resembling of the motion was discussed when the postponement of the presidents message was an nounced, but no action was taken. As the events have proved, there was no disposition to trade even yesterday, all elements preferring to wait for the development of the situation.
 As for to-day's market, business was trivial in amount and fluctuations were totally without significance. As for eign exchanges here all closed 1t was supposed that there might be some business. A large number of brokers shut up their offices and went home when they perceived the condition of affairs. Those who were left on the floor devoted their principal energies to sportive devices and tricks of haz- ing upon the board member whose mo- ton was responsible for depriving them of the usual holiday.
 Prices ,drifted aimlessly all day be- low last nights close, and closed above the lowest but at fractional net losses. Quotations both in the money and ex- change markets were merely nominal but a small additional engagement of gold for import was sufficient to indi- cate that the tide of the precious metal has not changed.
 Bonds were almost stagnant, but showed declines. The total sales were $S0o.00o.
 United States fours coupon lost per cent, United States fours coupon reg istered 4, the old fours registered F and fives fl per cent. in the bid price.

For NapoIeon's Sake.

Some people are very fond Of telling
a story that has a catch in 1t, and so
taking their listeners In. Here is a
sample of what mean:
Once, when In Paris, Napoleon paid a
visit to hospital for old soldiers.
Among the inmates was an old man
who had lost an arm. The Emperor
asked him:
where did you lose your arm"
"At Austerlitz sire"
Then, no doubt. you curse the EN-
peror and your country for your fate"
ION the contrary" said the veteran,
"for the Emperor and my country I
would sacrifice my other arm"
81 can hardly believe It," said the EN-
peror.
The soldier Immediately drew a saber
from It's sheath and Topped off the other
arm.
"a most sublime act of self-sacrifice,"
said the old lady who had been listen
ing to the yarn, totally forgetting the
impossibility of a one-armed man cut
ting off his remaining arm.-London
Tid-Bits.

male oryx. The animal was grazing

the lion had crept up unseen.
"In the very moment that the lion

late to run. But, like flash, the oryx
turned his nose to the ground and
threw his mighty horns forward.
THE lion fell fairly upon their sharp

slender body of the oryx was crushed
to the ground, but the lion fell with

artist, who took Du Maurier's place on
Punch, won great deal of fame for his
very expressive sketches. He would
draw a woman In couple of dozen
strokes, yet somehow would bring out
the very texture Of her gown. He came
across during the Worlds Fair and
brought along some Of his original
drawings. They were perfect webs of
blue pencil study, and every detail had
been worked out with an elaboration
that was simply incredible. Then he
had selected the lines that really told
the story and linked them over. 1t was
simple enough after you once know
how, but the trick was to make the
first drawing. That was where the
