BrddStreet'S Financial Revie1v.

NEW YORK. Dec. 29.-Bradstreet's review OF
the stock market tomorrow will say:
After the storm Of the preceding week this
has seemed n decided calm. While the
movements Of prices have been irregular they
have been mainly in the direction Of improve
ment. and there has been an entire absence Of
liquidation or other tendencies which had so
alarmed Wall street. Last Saturdays bank
statement, while not as good a had been
hoped tor. was nevertheless favorable and II
also evident that the strain upon the
money market had been removed by the action
OF the treasury and the New York banks. II
would indeed seem that the money has been
under firm control and that financial interests
OF the largest caliber Were determined that no
further disturbance should be allowed while the
Preparations fer the January disbursements
were in progress. Call money this week has
not been above per cent. and at the Stock
Exchange lower rates have been quoted on
large transactions. Time money. however is
houses hesitate about supplying themselves
at a Der cent rate, which is the mini
mum. The improvement in the money situation
here had its counterpart in the better feeling at
London. which market apparently owes its
more cheerful tone to the fact that further gold
shipments TO the amount OF some S.35O,O00 are
being made TO IL from New York to-day. The
indifference with which the hrmness OF ex-
change and the gold exporting operations were
regarded by the market another feature OF
the week. There We're other factors OF spec
ulative Importance but with the removal az the
reaction OF sentiment which favored higher
values throughout the list. Fresh buying by
the public has not developed yet. The bear
interests. however. covered extensively and
pools and large operators found little opposition
to marking up the prices for their specialties
This process was plainly noticeable in the steel
stocks and other industrials. The railroad
share list was, however. relatively the most
active part Of the market. both the standard
dividend payers and the lOw-priced stocks
showing sharp advances. The voldme of busi-
ness however. showed decided reduction and
despite the bullish manipulation Just referred
10 the general disposition of the street was TO
allow the market to become quiet in the hone
that the enormous disbursements on January /
easter money and a renewed investment ana

Once l saw pretty thing. a young
bride of the Kickapoos, on a sort of a
wedding trip. She was tall and slight,
and-so closely do the members of
tribe resemble one another-she looked
like the twin sister of her young hus-
band. At first they were accompanied
by stout old chief, but he left after
circus day. 1t Is odd to see an Indian
chief patronize the peanut and lemon
ade stands, and sit unmoved at the per-
Torrance, and yet stand enthralled be-
fore the cages of animals unknown on
his native prairies.
The bride and bridegroom spent
three or four days in the town, wander
ing about as unconsciousIy as Adam
and Eve in the garden. The man was
already masterful and protecting, the
girl shy and subservient Day after
day they walked hand in hand, looking
at everything people, shops, cattle
but never speaking to any one. never
even to each other, yet deeply content
in the consciousness of companionship.
They were living example of the hap
piness Of simplicity. and while they
staid in the hustling town. made many
a civilized man and woman think of
how far their own conduct as wives
and husbands fell short of the standard
Of this unconscious Indian pair.-Ains-

Not Wasted ON Her.

This happened to the wife of a well
known merchant who Is rather con-
spicuous for his devotion to the church.
His spouse. dressing one Sunday morn
Ing, got into waist that more than
put Joseph's coat in the shade. She
was conscious of the color scheme, but
decided to ask her husbands and her
fathers opinions before wearing the
garment to church. They agreed, poor
men, that she was delightfully."- dressed
and that the waist could hardly be i'm
proved upon.
So they went to church, the wife
with secret misgivings, which, as the
case turned out. were well enough
founded. for they were no sooner seat
ed in Grace Episcopal church than the
Rev, DR.. Worthington gave out the

The Bovvery Critic.

The critic was the most prominent
leader of Bowery society. He is slow
of speech and hesitates, sometimes
painfully, but when he does speak ev-
cry word hits. He does not go about,
as is the manner of less cultivated
speakers, but strikes home with few
words, mainly figurative. Although he
is full of the instructive diversions and
tastes of man of culture, he Is re-
tired prizefghter and spends most of
his time in an uncommonly dirty sa-
loon.
At ball which this leader of Bow
cry society gave "hard walk took
place, in which there were contestants
for a prize, to be given to him who
was the most natural. Any one who
should burlesque the walk of the Bow
cry tough was to be excluded. If the
tough walk was to be given, it was to
be given right.
you must do it on de level" said
the leader of society, giving prelimina-
ry instructions. "You must give us de
real ting. 'Tain't no cake walk, dis
hard walk. Walk jest as If you was

In writing to us to protest against
the readiness with which criminals are
pronounced by public opinion to be
mentally deficient. "B. A." tells the
following extraordinary story:
Personally" he says, Il am ac-
Quainted with case in which two sis
ters-the united annual income of
whose husbands is not less than $4,000
have for years been trying to per-
suade a brother incapacitated by i'll
health from work to commit suicide,
in order that they may be absolved
from yearly contribution of ESQ to-
ward his maintenance. At first | abso-
lLtely refused to believe that such
heartless selfishness actually existed,
until was shown letters from one of
the ladies in question, which left no
further doubt in my mind.
yet" he adds, ''if these sisters were
to put an end to their brothers exist
ence, there would be hundreds to con-
tend that the motive of pecuniary ben
eft was totally inadequate to account
for such a crime, which must conse-
Quently be attributed to mental aber-
ration. "-London Chronicle.

The following story illustrates the
resources of Nebraska farm: A
farmer got discouraged because he
didn't get rich the first year and, as
there was mortgage of 500 on his
farm, was about ready to jump the
whole business, but determined to
make one more effort and sowed 80
acres In wheat. 1t happened to be a
poor year for wheat and the stand
was not very good Concluding that it
wasn't worth harvesting he pulled up
his stakes and moseyed back to Mis-
souri,, leaving the farm to fight the
mortgage all by itself. The farm was
equal to the occasion. '
The wheat ripened, fell down and de-
posted the seed in the soil again. Next
spring the wheat began to grow Justify.
Some of the neighbors were honest
enough to write about 1t down to the
fugitive in Missouri, and he got inter-
ested enough to come back and take a
look. Then he stopped and harvested
his voluntary crop. He sold it for
enough to pay on the mortgage and the
rest of his debts and had tidy little
surplus over, with which he moved his
family back and now declares there is
no state like Nebraska.-Lihcoln (Neb.)
