ALITTLE QUIETER.
Southern Makers or Foundry Holding
Prices Up.


A Quieter week than those imme-
diately preceding. is the record for
the iron market. The experience as
to volume and prices is not uniform.
Continued firmness in some lines, as
in foundry iron, of which production
is steadily under consumption, is off
set by easier conditions elsewhere, as
in Bessemer pig iron, steel billets and
some forms OF finished Steel Stock
statistics for Oct. l, by the Western
Pig Iron Associations report, show a
decrease in September Of $4,000 tons,
coke, anthracite and charcoal iron all
participating, the first named con-
tributing $4,000 tons of the total.
Southern makers Of foundry iron are
holding prices at the level recently
reached, and it would appear that
these prices will be realized in the
buying Of the next few months. The.
chief complaint from the southern
market is the inability to make full
deliveries of certain grades, and the
pinch of scarcity, felt IN several
districts. is especially in evidence in
Alabama. OF export business there
are regular offerings, but the foreign
demand for grain from the United
States has increased the difficulties OF
Southern exporters. While shipments
are being made on old contracts, the
conditions at home and the freight
situation cut down on new foreign
business. The central western mar
ket in Bessemer iron and billetS is in
active, and the feeling is weaker in
both. Steel works are apparently sup
piled for the balance of the year, and
the selling agency of the associated
furnaces has scarcely become opera
tive. Iron outside the agreement has
sold considerably below the recent $40

He stood for a few moments IN
thoughtful silence, and then he said
Yes, accept til shall be pleased
TO prove my sincerity to you."
The earl returned to Ravensmere
to show all needful politeness and re-
spect for Lady Hamilton. 1t was a
great relief to him when the doctor
pronounced her well enough to return
nome, and he was a little surprised
when he found that she regretted leay-
ing Sir Raoul more than anyone else.
The noble, honest soldier had made a
great impression on the fashionable
beautiful coquette. HE is a man
worth loving" she said to herself.
Then the earl returned to London TO
see his wife and Mrs. Glenvil off. He
went with them to Dover-they had
decided upon going to Paris first. He
stood for few minutes on the deck
OF the steamer before 1t sailed: he
looked with longing, wistful eyes at
the face Of his young wife.
"Hildred. how 1 wish that I were
going with you." he said.

charming smile. But that would not
do-you must stand the test. You will
come to fetch me and the year will
not seem so long"

cried, suddenly.
But the countess drew down her veil.
No" she said, that would make the
parting even harder. Good-by. Heaven
bless you, Uric"
"Good-by, my wife," he said; and
his eyes filled with tears as he watched
the steamer cutting her way through
the blue waves.

it is hard to imagine. Never have
there been more shirt waists sold than

that there are so many white waists,
and the people who have bought all

they need more white waists for the

patton, no more self-indulgence. He
made up his mind that all the plans
his wife had contemplated and be-
gun for the benefit Of the estate should
be carried out before she returned
home. The model cottages should be
built. and men with their families re-
siding in them; the schools should not
only be erected, but open; the aims
houses should be finished, and the old
women occupying them. She should
find her protege, Mary Woodruff, in
stalled as FORTRESS in one of the lodges;
every wish his wife had ever ex-
pressed should be carried out, every
desire fulfilled; houses should be re-
paired, farms put in good order-he
would neglect not single thing that
she had ever proposed or thought Of
No matter what it cost. it all should
be done. He took Sir Raoul into his
confidence, and they found that by en-
ploying extra hands the work could
be done in time.
Lord Caraven, in the midst Of his
labors and tolls, did not forget to cor
respond continually with his wife. He
wrote to her every week. never telling
her what he was doing, but dwelling
continually on his passionate love for
her, on his intense desire to see her
again.
So the year passed away. It was
thought advisable for Mrs. Glenvil to
return before the English winter be-
gan, and the beginning Of September
was fixed upon as the time for her and
the countess return. The earl prayed
his wife to allow him TO go to Nice
to escort them home, as was at first
arranged. She answered, mo-" that her
father would do that. She did not wish
to meet him again until she met him
a. home. Her father would bring her
to Court Raven station; he could meet
her there and take her home.
"She is right" said Sir Raoul; that
seems to ME more fitting. She is right,
as she always is"
So the day came-a bright Septem-
hsr day-when all the world seemed
changed to the Earl of Caraven. The
train was due at the Court Raven sta
ton at in the afternoon, and the
earl was to meet it.
Lord Caraven kept his word. The day
was celebrated as wedding day. Great
tents were erected in the park, and
all the children and the tenantry were
Toasted therein to their hearts con-
tent. There was nothing but rejoic-
ing and nerriment and happiness.
The earl stood by the carriage door
when. the train stopped. There was not
much time for greeting then. He
clasped his wifes hands between his
own, hesitate6 for a moment, and then
kissed her.
my wife-my darlingAwelcome
home!" he said
Then he helped her into the carriage
and took his seat by her side. He saw
her face grow pale with emotion as
the ringing cheers Of men, women and
children fell upon her ear, and, as
the carriage drove SLOWLY along, more

than one rough voice cried, Heaven
bless your ladyship! Welcome home!"
They drove slowly, for the crowd was
great. 1t increased as they drove
through the park, and when the car
riage stopped at the great entrance 1t
was wonderful to see the throngs OF
people. The earl stood up to thank
them for their kind and spontaneous
greeting. Then he took his wife's
hand in his, and a beautiful smile
frightened her face as she looked round
upon them-there was hardly one in
the vast gathering who had not re-
ceived some kindness. some favor or
benefit from her hands.
