to good man she will prob
ably stay by him although there
may be better men. There is a
reason for this. Marriage is a
serious thing and it should not
be entered upon lightly. A
promise is made "until death
shall us part. Not so with flour,
you do not have to marry a miller

WAITER ON TIPS.
Gratulties, He Says, Are Taken Out
 of Sheer Necessity.

The bitter cry of the victims of the 'tip nuisance" is loud in the land, but the recipients of tips have usually maintained naughty silence. Now MT. James D. Stemons, colored waiter, explains their point of view in the Independent:
 ''Waiters' wages have everywhere been reduced with the growth of tips, so that the tipper Is merely making good the de- ficiencies of the employer. But of late there has also been a great decline in the volume of tips, so that the waiter, under paid and confronted with the loss of his perauisite at the same time. is flattened between the two rolls of wringer.
 Tn the north the tendency is for the best restaurants in different cities the tips re- ceived by colored walters vary from noth- ing at one place in Cleveland to s1.50 a day in New York At the best hotel in New Orleans they average 75 cents a day. In Memphis they are cents a day, in Louisville 15 and in Philadelphia from 40 cents to $1 The usual range in the south Is low.
 In the north the tendency is for the best hotels and restaurants to employ white walters. Where colored men are em- ployed they get much lower wages.
 "As rule colored walters draw from SIS to S22 a month in wages, and they are lucky when they can get Sl0 more m ups. In most restaurants the bulk of the bus mess Is compressed within two or three hours, and 10 cents is the prevailing fee.
 Tn fact, 1t is only the most aggressive waiter who manages to average so much as 50 cents a day in tips"
 he recipient of this tip takes 1t as a matter of hard necesslty-not because he likes to. The author of the article quoted worked for three years before he consent ed to accept one, and then 1t was forced upon him. But the tips will stay until the patrons of hotels and restaurants induce proprietors to pay living wages. Such a If MT. Stemons may be cred ited will have the enthusiastic support of the walters, whose supposed exactions in spired the vlrtuous resolves of the An league.

on the movement which appears to have eliminated last Monday. The Harry Well clique also made number of very handsome turns Besides these, varl- ous professional operators followed the downward movement to a very great ad- vantage The idea that James R. keene by his connection with the Morgan party was inhibited from ever again assum- ing the bear leadership of the stock mar ket has been exploded. The dissolution of the United States Steel underwriting syndicate of which MT. Keene was man. ager, appears to have left him with much of his freedom and although his bull ish interests are perhaps greater than ever before they are not so great as to prevent him essaying speculatfons Tor the decline. It has been supposed that bear market would develop a new bear leader, but none has yet arisen. Harry Well, whose bearish operations have late ly attracted a great deal of attention is the most promising candidate. but he Is not the manner of man to command following, and indeed. those who know him best say that he ia nov ambitious to be a leader preferring rather to work along independent lines without being re- sponsible to a party. The short interes' in the market this month at times has been very large. but 1t was hidden by the expedent of selling stocks short through houses that were long of them. The late Addison Cammack was a genius at thus disguislng the large position on the short Side of the market.

Western Unions poles. The Western Union, be it remembered, is a Gould property The bitterness of feeling on both sides is hurting the stock market. Efforts, we are told, are being made to effect a truce but the outlook is cer- tainly very badly clouded.
 St. Paul this week reached price more than 50 points lower than the high rec ord mark of last year. The buying of the stock below 190 is remembered to have been of very excellent qualitya It proceeded from influential sources and evidently was based upon Standard oil information, so-called. The Rockefeller interest has long been dominant In St. Paul and the fluctuations of the stock for years have been controlled absolutely by the Standard oil crowd. The informa- tion on St. Paul that emanated from Standard Oil sources when the stock was selling around 19O was extravagantly bullish and completely fooled some of the most conservative men in the finan- cial world. With St. Paul selling below 15O it Is interesting, not to say signif- cant, to recall that James J. Hill offered $2OO a share for the control of St. Paul when the property was wanted for the Northern Securities company. Control could not be secured at that price. and Messrs. Hill and Morgan took Burlington instead. One can not refrain from won dering what Burlington stock would be worth if it were still in the market. The Northern Securities company paid S200 a share for Burlington, exchanging North ern Pacific and Great Northern bonds for 1t on that basis. It is said on very re- liable authority that some of the heavi- est liquidation seen in St. Paul has been for Mir. Hills account. and that he has been putting the money Into Northern Se- curities The story Is that he began to increase his holdings of Northern Se- curities before the adverse decision of the Circuit Court of Appeals at St. Paul two months ago, believing that the de- cision would be what it was, and that his more recent buying has been in an- ticipation of a similar decision by the United States Supreme court. MT. Hill believes, according to those who give this information, that the Northern Securities stock will have to be retired at much

Rich investors who rarely come to Wall street. except in search of bargains, have been seen this week around the old-fash- toned commission houses. These peo- pie come, as a rule, in the wake Of 6 panic. They buy stocks and take them up when other people lack the means or inclination to do so. They have begun to accumulate stocks on scale orders This Is the very best kind of buying, and once begun it bids fair to be continued on a scale down until the market turns Stocks thus purchased are taken out ot Circulation, either for good or for per- iods anywhere from six months to six years. If they are bought as a specu- lative investment they come on the mar ket again when everybody is bullsh and buying stocks. This suggests the reflec- ton that the old-fashioned commission houses are becoming more and more scarce in Wall street. There was never anything in the past that could approach the present sumptuousness of brokerage establishments and the tendency is to- ward greater extravaganza. lot ot sympathy has been wasted recently on the brokers. All of them have been com plaining of a lack of business. Many of the large houses have said that they were not making expenses. Some of the larger institutions have been dismissing clerks and curtailing in other ways tnelr DNed charges. As a matter of fact. however, the brokerage business in the average is steadily improving. The only thing in Wall street that does not grow is the membership of the New Ycrk Stock Ex- change It is limited to l.lJ1 members. Ten years ago market of 300. F,0 larss day was regarded as a marvel of ac- tivity whereas today .ht professional element in the room alone is capable Of creating that amour. uf business. In the natural order cf things .he volume c. stocks will go on increasing an1 ;he nuni- Der of people to buy and sell will continue to grow, but the membership of tho New York Sto>t Exch7nge VII remain sta- tionary. This would account for the way Stock Exchange seats have been hold up in price. They are selling higher today than they sold at the height of the bull market a year ago
 Operations for the decline In the stock market have been immensely profitable this month Aside from the campaign supposed to have ben conducted by the Standard oil crowd at the expense of St Paul, New York Central and Penn sylyania, several very shrewd independ- ent operators have made big killings on the short side of the market. It was es- timated after the close of trading on Monday that in that days session the Keene crowd alone had covered 100000 shares of short stock. There is no doubt that Mir. Keene and his immediate fol- lowers made a great speculative coup
