asked a bystander.
This mule fell down in the car last
night" replied the auctioneer, "and was
scratched up bit. But he's all right. He
was all right yesterday. Start him at
something. Start him at 50 if you want TO,
for l know he'll come up all right He's
got TO be sold.'
No one in the crowd, however was noticed
scrambling over his fellows to secure this
mule, but finally a bid of s. was offered,
and the voice of the auctioneer was again
heard abroad in the bazaar. He. did his
best with his cry of five, 1 have, now
ten but $3.50 was all the auctioneer could
get for the prize, and although it was "giv-
ing the mule away that amount was taken
with alacrity when the sale had been fin
ished.
Many of the horses sold al the bazaar
good animals, and in numerous cases
they bring from 500 to $50 and more.
But the story is told for fact that a col
ored San at one time bought an old horse
at one of the auctions for $1.50 In lead
ing the animal home, and after the colored
man had gotten about a black away from
the bazaar, the horse slipped and fell, and
right then and there turned its bleared eyes
toward the smiling sun and gave up the
ghost.

But not So This man with the pleas

adjusting his glasses, and then there is

pdfGnIIy lley won sell a morse or mule
to any one who does not carry a whip. If
you should shout bid on an animal and
could not produce the whip the men in
charge of the auction would likely look
upon you with suspicion. The whip seems
to be an evidence of good faith, and it
is the sign by which persons who have
actual business at the bazaar are distin-
gushed from those who have no business
there.
A horse bazaar is a great, big square sort
of a barn with stalls on either side for
horses and mules, and a large open space
in the center The stand for the auctioneer
and his clerk is located toward the front
of the stable on side Horses and
mules are brought into the barn from all
parts of the country-north, east, south and
west-and the auction sales take place on
Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
1t is Tuesday morning at the bazaar and
there are several carloads of horses and
mules to be disposed of by the auctioneers.
The crowd begins to gather about 10 o'clock
and forms two lines part of the way down
the center of the stable in the vicinity of
the auctioneer's sta..d. An open space is
reserved between the lines to permit of
the exhibition of the animals to be sold
The throng is a heterogeneous collection
of men. Among the few men who carry
whips-the buyerS-are proSperouS-looking
contractors who need horses and mules for
hauling, farmers who wish to replenish their
stock of farm horses, and occasionally
livery stable proprietor. Here and there in
the crowd may be seen clean-shaven, neat
looking young men wearing good clothes,
which seems TO be their only occupation,
and evidently attracted to the scene by their
curiosity to see and hear what is going on.
There are others in the crowd who appar-
emily have paid no attention whatever to
their garb, and whose faces seemingly have
not experienced the luxury of shave for
several weeks. Occasionally a man will
be noticed with his shoes united and pre-
senting the general appearance of one who
has been abandoned to the caprices of fate
and didn't care. Workmen out of a job
come to the bazaar a convenient place
to loaf in the association with other men,
and many colored men, old-time .'darkey
uncles'' and those of the later generation
add to the size and variety of the throng

 "The internal treatment" said this woman, was even more interesting. I was on the milk cure, which was man. aged thus: Every morning there was bought for me six quarts of pure or whole milk This was put in six diff ferent cans and to each can there was added half pint of pure water. A can was then set in warm water and as it heated I was allowed to drinkk it.
 q took, said she, "a full glass of milk every half hour. It was slightly warm, just warm enough to take the chill off and keep me from shivering.
 "The ingenious part came in the fla. voring of the milk. One can each day was slightly favored with vanilla This made the milk taste like custard. And one can was favored with cinnamon. There was just the very faintest taste of spice, as in a hot punch"

WARM MILK AND HEALTH.
Internal and External Applications of the Lacteal Fluid Give Sur-
 prising Results.

The milk cure is one of the most fa- nous of all cures these days, and the way in which it is managed makes it a tonic for the skin and the stomach. The patient takes milk inside and out. The outside milk cure is wortny atten- tion, writes Mime. Julie Darcy. This is the way it was described by wo- man who took it: T was massaged," ]" said she, from head to foot every night of my life with milk. might have taken milk bath had it not been so expensive. The milk baths were managed for me in this way. At night I was massaged with the top of the milk, which was like cream. Then, as the weather was cold, I was wrapped in blankets and put to bed. This was for extreme nervous prostration.
 "In the morning took bath in this mixture: The tub was filled with warm water in which about a quart of milk was stirred. And into this was dropped ten drops of benzoin. This

So Says Mrs. Fish, Who Scores Him
 For Wearing a Derby.

So Says Mrs. Fish, Who Scores Him
 For Wearing a Derby.
 Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish has come to the rescue of her sex by iaying men for following fashion blindly, says the New York Times. She says:
 Talk about slaves of fashion. We women are not in it with the men. They wear straw or felt hats, accord ing to a certain date, and pay no at tention to the weather or to their own comfort. But that Is not all. For years they've clung to the derby fashion be- cause it Is the style. and if there's an uglier, more uncomfortable or more unhealthful hat than a derby I don't know what it is.
 There's not one man in a thousand to whom such a hat is becoming. But tall men and short, big headed men and small headed men, fair men and dark men, all stick on derbies and walk around with a self satisfied air
 If fashion decrees a narrow brim derby, all men wear narrow brim der bies regardless of the fact that the narrow brim makes the round face look like a full moon. If broad brims are the fashion, every man wears a broad brim, although 1t makes the thin featured man look like a scarecrow. If fashion says brims shall roll sharply at the sides. even the man with large ears wears a sharp. rolling brim, although he must know that it makes him look like a yellow kid
 ''Women will mind fashion so long as it dictates something becoming but they will refuse to look like frights to please 1t But the men follow it blindly and devotedly. no matter al what sacrifice to their looks. And ev' cry fall I wonder what has become of the handsome men until I remember that the ugly hat season has come up on them"

reached Liverpool they were engaged. You might call it an accidental wed- ding, due to propinquity, but 1t has not turned out badly, though they are so in contrast. Belle adores Hugh and looks up to his superior scholarship with the proper degree of admiration. Most men appreciate homage. As for Hugh, though Belle is shallow, he has never found 1t out. He will read a thesis to her and she will sit looking like a modern Madonna, really consid- ering the style of her next gown, but outwardly listening to her good mans deep voice as 1t goes droning along the resonant periods. She does not un- derstand much of it. but she makes him comfortable, and good deal of married happiness is built upon a foun- dation of domestic comfort and mutual adoration.
 A little romance may be lent to the most prosaic day if we are ready to find pleasure in agreeable accidents. For instance, on the veranda of an inn at resort which is patronized all the 
 year round, alike in winter as in sum- mer, one may meet an old gentleman or an old lady whose memory is g treasure house of incidents and anec- dotes of a by-gone day. Interesting as younger people are, they cannot bear comparison with delightful old people who have lived in the midst of things through their busy years, and are con- tented to sit on the edge of things in the Indian summer of their lives. Ac- cidentally the lady who is spending a few weeks for her health fn place like this drops into conversation with the old stager, who is postmaster or mistress of charming gossip, and finds the idle days greatly enriched by the chance acquaintance.
 Accidents of this kind are common enough, but should never be taken for granted. They drift into our days like extra sunbeams and should be re- ceived with thankfulness. The hap | piest people are those who begin each morning with the expectation that some accidental joy will overtake them before night.

Miss Roosevelt Present at Many Functions Given In Honor of Britt fish hAdmiral-Chamber ber of Com-
 merce Luncheon Today.

NEW YORK, Nov. 13.-Prince Louis of Battenberg was the guest of the New York chamber of commerce at luncheon today and tonight will attend a great entertainment at Coney Island which the American bluejackets are giving to their British cousins.
 The prince will give a grand ball on board the flagship Drake tomorrow evening. On Wednesday, the last even ing of his visit, he will be given din ner by the Pilgrims society of New York.
 Prince Louis is having such ''good time" here that he has postponed the sailing of his squadron until Saturday
 Prince Louis is being kept on the move. Between 9 o'clock in the morn ing and midnight Saturday he held four receptions, reviewed parade, saw a football game, attended a state lunch, con and society dinner, travelled LOG miles by boat and train and was in terviewed. And yet he got up Sunday morning in time to go to church at Trinity. He is running strong with. out sign of break.
 After seeing the Carlisle Indians trim the West Point football team in the presence of the flower of the United States army he is of the opinion that American football is not so interesting game as his own Rugby. He is strong for West Point, and well he may be, for the Naval alumni and the elements together gave him beauti ful day-one that will be remembered along the Hudson.
 The prince and his party went by the steamer c. w. Morse.
 On the way up the river the prince reviewed the American fleet. The Eng lishmen took no notice of their ad miral. The Maine of the American fleet, on the other hand, piped to quar-

ters and the band played the nationai airs as he passed. On all the other American ships the crews stood at at- tention, and there were quarters on the Pennsylvania. The Morse passed so close that her passengers could read the insignia of the officers on deck. Prince Louis stood on the upper deck by the pilot house and watched the fleet until the last American cruiser was lost to sight in the mists of the river.
 The admiral said to the representtA. tives of the newspapers:
 q did not mean to be understood as saying that any fleet could reduce your city to atoms. That would be child's talk. What did mean and what re- peat is that no city would suffer more from the effects of war because 1t would put stop to its tremendous commercial activity, which was one of the first things that impressed me-
 The Indians from Carlisle scalped the football team of West Point and won their initial gridiron struggle with the army eleven by to 5, the home team failing to kick a goal, which would have tied the game, from a difficult angle.
 The scene of the struggle proved a mecca for probably 5000 persons.
 Miss Roosevelt is in town and has attended the various entertainments in honor of Prince Louis of Battenberg and in honor of the officers of the Brit ish cruiser squadron. She is staying with her aunt, Mrs. Douglas Robinson. Miss Roosevelt will be at the ball to be given tomorrow evening by Prince Louis on board his flagship Drake and on Wednesday will join Mrs. Ogden Mills house party at Staatsburg-on- the Hudson, given for the prince and for his nephew, young Alexander of Battenberg.
 Miss Helen Miller Gould presided at special sailors service held in the naval branch of the Young Mems Christian association in Brooklyn and spoke words of welcome from the plat form to about 200 bluejackets from the British squadron now in the North riv- CT and about 600 from the American | fleet.

 was glad for my own sake too. The parting of tomorrow would not, then, be final one.
 She left me presently, and for an hour or more sat there and looked, in every aspect, at the theory she had sug- gested. Certainly there was nothing to disprove it, and yet, as she had said, 1t merely served to deepen the mys- tery. Who were these people, asked myself again, who dared to play so bold and desperate a game? The illegih- mate daughter might, of course. inn personate Miss Holladay, but who was the elder woman-her mother? Then the liaison must have taken place in France-her accent was not to be mis- taken-but in France MT. Holladay had been always with his wife. Be sides, the younger woman spoke Eng fish perfectly. True, she had said only a few words-the hoarseness might have been affected to conceal differ ence in voice-but how explain the elder woman's resemblance to Hiram Holladay's daughter? Could they both be illegitimate? But that was non sense, for Mrs. Holladay had taken her into her life, had loved her
 And Martigny? Who was he? What was his connection with these women? That the crime had been carefully planned I could not doubt, and it had been carried out with surprising skill.
 Doubtless it was Martigny who had arranged the plot, who had managed its development. And with what bold ness! He had not feared to be pres ent at the inquest or even to ap- proach me and discuss the case with me. I tried to recall the details of our talk, impatient that I had paid so little heed to it. He had asked, remem- bered, what would happen to Frances Holladay if she were found guilty. He had been anxious, then, to save her. He had-yes, I saw it now-he had written the note which did save her; he had run the risk of discovery to get her free!
 But why?
 If I only had clew-one thread to | follow! One ray of light would be enough. Then I could see my way out of this hopeless tangle. I should know 1 how to strike. But to stumble blindly onward in the dark-that might do more harm than good.
 Yes, and there was another thing for me to guard against. What was to prevent him the moment he stepped ashore wiring to his confederates, warning them, telling them to flee? Or he might wait, watching us, until he saw that they were really in danger. In either event they must easily es- cape. Miss Kemball had been right when she pointed out that our only 1 hope was in catching them unprepared. The impulse was too strong to be resisted. In a moment I was on my feet But, no! To surprise him would be to make him suspect, called a | steward.
 ''Take this card up to M. Martigny," :" I said, ''in 3T5, and ask if he is well enough to see me-"
 l As he hurried away a sudden doubt seized me. Mortified at my hardihood. I opened my mouth to call him back. But did not call. Instead sank back into my chair and stared out across the water
 "M. Martigny," said the stewards s voice at my elbow, answers that he will be most pleased to see M. Lester at once."
