Horses-There was another small supply
of horses arrived for the auction, there
being about 100 in the regular sale CT the
Blair-Baker Horse Company, against l75 the
same time last week and 125 the CORE
spending time a year ago The class OF
horses represented did not differ materially
from those offered in the initial sale of
the week, and the conditions were very
much the same as those existing at that
time. A fai- number of buyers attended
the sale. but their requirements were not
really urgent and they took considerable
time in making their selections. The sup
ply all changed hands. however, and prices
were quotably steady compared with
week ago. 1t is expected that the markets
will continue quiet throughout the sumner
season. The highest price paid was s3IO
for high-acting sorrel coach horse in the
consignment of John O.. Clark, Of Wester-
field, that sold to Colonel George w. Craw-
ford. the well-known exporter, of Newark,
.. Other sales were reported high as
500. a few around $50. aid most of the
supply sold from SIS TO sll5 per head.

Tsogs-Receipts. $500; shipments, 1000.
Combined receipts of hogs for three days
exhibit an increase of nearly 1000 over the
same time last week and nearly 1000 over
the corresponding time year ago. The re-
ceiptS to-day were nearly 1000 larger than
a week ago and 1900 larger than a year
ago. Fresh and stale, there was from 5000
TO 1900 hogs on sale. The ample supply
sufficient TO guarantee lower prices
but the buying interests were also favored
Dy lower markets elsewhere and only a
fair Improvement in the shipping demand
here. The market opened with the bidding
unevenly lower from shippers. and packers
were waiting TO see just what proportion
of the supply they would be expected to
take. Transactions at the start represent
ed a decline of from 15c TO 2Oc in prices
compared with those current yesterday
morning and probably all OF the hogs that
were sold up 10 II o'clock showed that
change. At that time, however, only about
one-half the supply had changed hands
and IL was apparent that shipping orders
had been well filled. Therefore packers
were inclined TO be more bearish than ever
and II was claimed offered 20G25c lower
prices in certain cases than equal kinds
sold for yesterday. Their excuse for bid
ding such prices was that they did not
need the hogs, and they were not inclined
to recede from their position. There We're
not many sales reported late in the day
and the market again closed fiat with
probably half the supply left in the pens
unsold Sales ranged from 81 to 81. 72h and
u very small part of the supply sold below

Telling Fortune. In Russia.

Whenever a number of young people
CT me together in Russia during New
Years Eve and Twelfth Night, whether
it be for dancing, playing games, or
Just spending q pleasant evening to-
gether, some one of the party is sure to
rrerose "fats-rsading," or "gadat," as
1t is called in Russian.
Seeking to know beforehand the a t
of ones future sweetheart is u very
amusing experiment, and there are two
methods of going to work. The first Is
managed thus: A sheet Of paper is cut
up into strips about four and a half
inches long, on every n of which a
number is written. A big basin is half
filled with water, and by wetting one
end Of the strips of paper these are
made to adhere to the rim Of the basin
all around, the dry ends pointing hori-
zontally toward the center. A nut shell
containing a bit of lighted wax taper is
then set afloat by one Of the party, the
water having previously been slightly
disturbed with the fingers so as to give
1t a slightly rotary movement. Some
times the skiff will pass many times
without harm, or, again, it will stay a
pretty long time before n without ig-
hitting it; but the name set fire to is
believed to be that of the person who ts

The young man in society who
caused his family great pain and anger
the other day by marrying his servant

brated men as an extenuatiOn or a JUS.
~t.ification Of his act.
There was William Cobbett, the great
writer, and the "liberator of the Eng.
lish press" as he is frequently called.
He was only 81 years Of age when,
walking out in the streets of Halifax,
Nova Scotia, one morning, he CHANGED;
to see a buxom servant girl busily n
gagged in washing the family linen. The
girl, though only 10 years Of age, was
pretty, SO Goblet spoke to her, learned
her name, and the same evening called
upon her parents and said he would
like to marry their daughter.
This is probably the origin of the
expression, This is SO student" which
blushing maidens have made use OF
ever since.
The parents Of the girl informed the
young man that they had no objection
to him as a son-in-law, but that he

Accordingly Goblet gave the girl all
The money he had, which amounted to
e14O, and she went to England and
became a servant in the family OF a
clergyman. Five years later Goblet
returned to England and married her.
The late Sir Henry Parkes, premier
Of New South Wales, Is. another exam
pie. One night, when dining at q
friends house,. he was struck by the
appearance Of a servant girl who wait
ed at the table, and persuaded his host
to allow her to enter his employ. This
she did, and for q short time held the
position Of cook In Sir Henry's house,

all conventionalities and he made her

But more illustrious than all these
examples is that of Peter the Great.

the affection you suggested she had Tor

the right thing. There had been 81
much wrong. done in this unhappy
house, Nugent Leathwood, in the past.
that I determined no nor wrong should
be done through. me. / said to myself:
This girl has repented Of q promise
made when she was too young to un-
derstand the gravity of It.; I will hold
her to no such romantic dream as that;
she has awakened to the reality OF life.
and knows her heart for the first time
AS God is my witness, I meant to give
her to you, Nugent Leathwood, and to
drop completely out of your lives. With
that purpose I returned to England,
prompted. perhaps, by curiosity to see
the man Olive Mallory preferred to my
self-but prompted, above all else, by
the best and truest feelings that ever
guided a man to do what was right"
'sYou tell your part Of the story pretty

impulses can animate a mar In these

Gilbert. For some hidden reason

you. I wanted to find out, in an tndi-
rect fashion, what sort Of mar you
were. So I gave my servant n of my
cards, and put in his hands $500 in bank
notes, to be given to you as an earnest
