YESTERDAYS STOCK MARKET

AS Reviewed by Prince & Whitely's
Letter.
New York, Dec. 11.-To-day's mar
ket, take it all in all has only showed
that in order to bring monetary condi-
ton on a legitimate basis forced liqui-
dalton would be necessary. To-day's
break was chiefly we think brought
about by the monetary condition exist
ing at this center, to which we have
often referred from day to day and
+ was helped along in a measure by idle
rumors, which we do not care to enum-
crate.
The selling of bank stock of one of
the most prominent institutions shows
| plainly how sorely money is needed. In
a calm way, judging present condi-
tions we should say that the atmos-
phere is clearing for a time at least,
and even If, as is likely, we should
have f1urries in the money market
! hereafter We think that certain proper
| ties from an investment standpoint are
meriting attention.
The bank of England rate remained
unchanged at per cent.
| Call money ran up to 9 per cent,
closing at G per cent. Time money
very firm, with per cent. bid for nine
| ty days and under. Foreign exchange
dull but firm; actual short 4S72O for
sterling.
! Wheat less active but prices well
maintained, foreign demand at prices
remains good. Speculation much re-
stricted.
Cotton showed it's inherent strength
to-day. Always more or less allied
with the stock market it advanced to-
day and we can only repeat that on
any dip from present prices we con-
slider the market a purchase Ulti-
mately cotton seems bound to sell
much higher or its present statistical
position and consumptive demand.
| The stock market with the advent
of the closing hour was inclined to
harden but money rates were too much
! for speculative ventures and for time
| prices gave way again, still we think
that the better properties bought on
these dips will eventuate in good profits
| before very long.
The close was feverish and prices ir-
regular. Toatl 1,125 500.

COMING DORsCHr CONCERT.
Programme for sunday Evening Has
Been selected with Great Care.

GNEhRA& mas
Been selected with Great Care.
The first Dorscht concert of the 18th
season will be given by the big Dorscht
orchestra at the Hyperion theater Sun
day night. In arranging the programmes
for these affairs the character of the
day is never lost sight of, and for that
reason trash is never found on the list
of numbers to be performed. The best
! class of music, such as finds place in
the musical portion Of church services,
! is alone chosen. 1t is seldom, however,
| that those having in charge the music
| in churches can avail themselves of the
majority of numbers by reason of
handicaps In the matter of Instruments
for such performance.
The Dorscht orchestra is a complete
! band, capable of performing the high
est form of music, the symphony. For
about forty-fve men selected from the
| best Of the Instrumental performers in
the city, and will be as usual under
! the skilful leadership of Frank Fichtl.
The solOist is one especially secured
for the lodge by Morris Steinert, the
| noted lover Of music and art, and she is
prodigy of remarkable talent. She
will be heard in two solos for piano
! forte, one the great Liszt "Fantasie
| Hongroise." She will perform upon Il
| magnificent Steinertone expressly
manufactured for her. 1t is not gen.
orally known that the appearance of
Miss Scholder here Sunday night at the
concert is entirely due to Mr.. Stein
/ erts' generosity. AS the concerts of the
| Dorscht lodge are for the benefit of
! aged and sick musicians, nnne of those
| PEI forming are paid and consequently
when an artist like Miss Scholder ap-
| pears it is because her services have
| been donated by some one. 1t is Mr.
| Steinert who has given her services to
the lodge as his donation to help the
| cause.
The orchestral numbers of the con-
| cert will include Reisingers majestic
overture, THE Mill on the Cliff: Vic
tor Herbert's great American Fan
tasie," one movement from Grieg's
peer Gynt" suite, two characteristic
! numbers, Nevins beautiful song, THE
| Rosary" arranged for full orchestra
and SulIivan's THE Emerald Isle"
The proceeds of the concerts are de-
voted to charity, the fund in aid of
aged and meritorious musicians, an
object which has accomplished a world
of good and relieved distress unosten-
tatiously, although the fund has been
sorely taxed at times.

epicureanism comes very close to being q
virtue.
Most homes cater to children as we'll as
to adults, which would preclude the ad-
vocating Of club cookery for the family
table. But there is no reason why the task
OF catering to a family should not be con-
sidered as important, or at least as inter-
esting as 1t is evidently regarded in The
clubs. The club will always rival the
home until some woman Of influence begins
to make a fad of housekeeping aesthetics.
The trouble is that in min homes out
OF ten this branch Of work is left to domes-
tics who are hired to perform manual. not
mental, work and are paid accordingly. A
cook may be perfectly able to proceed with
the technical task OF preparing a roast,
an entree or a sauce, but she can hardly be
expected to plan the asserting of a weeks
menus. the proper combination OF dishes
for breakfasts, dinners and iuncheons, and,
above all, the avoidance Of repetition-that
deadly fault In the routine Of the dining
room. 40
1t has, of course, become quite clever
nowadays to affect q disdain for the de-
tails of housekeeping. and women who can
not AFFORD housekeepers or chefs to LOOK
out for this branch Of the home manage
ment usually let 1t go by the board, and
when confronted by the ever recurring
question, "what shall We have to eat?"
dispense with 1t many hundred times In a
year By ordering steak and chops, which
appear on the American table with deadly
regularity and have come to be regarded
as our national foods.
Until women begin to make a serious en-
ioyment Of this branch Of home making,
as they have Of many far more laborious
pleasures, they will always fail to succeed
In ousting the club cuisine from its place
in masculine estimation. It will ever loom
upon their horizon as a haven to which men
Of the family may betake themselves with
naughty 10y in case Of any small domestic
Jar.
The trouble seems to be that. despite our
cooking classes and most excellent cook
ing teachers and lecturers, there Is too
much attention given to the chem
Istry and the hygiene OF gastronomy as we'll
as the practical carrying out OF methods
10 the exclusion OF the aesthetic side OF
the subject, which is Its spirit. once
women become impressed with this idea
there will be q mammoth revival in the
lost art.

The setting was spectacular. Grouped
together on the floor Of the historic cham
Der were the representatives Of the legis-
lative. judicial and executive departments
Of the government. the diplomatic corps in
their multi-colored apparel, the heads Of
the army and navy in resplendent uniforms.
Then. as now, the galleries were owd
with the leaders OF political and social life.
But the actors In this national drama were
not the same.
Twenty years ago the orator of the day
was James @. Blaine and by a most pathetic
coincidence the exercises Of commemora-
ton were under the direction OF william
Mckinley on the part Of the house and
John Sherman on behalf Of the senate. To
institute comparisons between the oratory
OF James @. Blaine and John Hay would By
no means detract from the merits of the
polished address Of Secretary Hay, whose
scholarly attachments are Of the highest
order. but Blaine's mastery and forcefuI
presentation could not have been equalled
by any American OF his time. Mr.. Hays
manner Of delivery was pleasing and the
tumultuous applause at the close of bis

Kate Masterson in Golfers Weekly.
Men are always boasting of the good
things to eat which they are able to get
at their clubs. The growing generation
boasts not Of mothers cooking. but Of the
club chefs. Many women AFFECT to dis
believe in the projections of the club
cuisine until they have the good fortune to
lunch or dine at one Of these masculine
retreats, where they speedily become aware
Of the fact that, while feminine touches
may be missing in the way Of rose candle
shades and violets strewn upon the cloth,
the service Is unimpeachable.
Club, service Is rarely snowy; there are
no .bovknots on the French chops or lace

the butter. the soup at once impress them
selves unmistakably upon the diner and
the minimizing might wonder at the un-
usual charm Of It all.
In reality the reason for all this lies
mainly in the fact that the steward. a man,
caters for men. and the chef, who Is also q
man. cooks for them But above all they
know that the dishes must meet with the

club q man is never afraid of the cook.
Men are many times more particular as
to what they eat than women, for women
are not particular at all In this direction.
They are impressionistic in their culinary
tastes as a rule and know very little about
the aesthetic side OF gastronomy. Oddly
enough the best women cooks are not cpl
cures, although they are proud of their
achievements and OF the appreciation Of
those who enjoy their triumphs. But cooks
taste as they proceed with their work and
then dine on bread and tea
In reality the much-talked-of club flavor
that men declare they can never find else
where consists of extra seasoning. But 1t
must be borne in mind that clubs really
get the very best foods that come to mar
ket- The hotels come next, and after them
the chefs Of private individuals are served
But the club stewards are keen on the sub
ject OF excellence in quality and are the
first on hand at the markets, besides having
contracts with the dealers that they VIII
