Goudy Shoes.

Probably the most remarkable shoes
ever produced within recent times
were those worn at a function in Lon
don the other day by a woman well
known in society. In keeping with a
gorgeous gown, which is said to have
cost fabulous sum, she wore pair
Of shoes that were literally covered
with flashing jewels-diamonds, rubies
and pearls. The style Of decoration
was Of a remarkably striking charac-
ter. Five hundred dollars was the
price Of each shoe.
Such decoration Of shoes is a return
to the fashion Of the middle ages. when
extravaganza and gaudy display were
the chief characteristic pertaining to
footwear in common with other things.

kitehying ON New Years Day.

Nateay1ng ON New Years Day.
In japan the chief New Years pas.
time for boys and men is kitehying.
The kites Of America may be scientific,
but the kites Of Japan are gorgeous,
and they sing.
Little contrivances fastened to the
strings cause strange, whirring sounds,
which remind one of the aeolian harp.
Some OF them are of an enormous size.
as big as two doors. and require a
group OF men to raise them.
In ancient Japan, it is alleged, large
kites played the part Of the modern
balloon in estimating the forces Of the
enemy during wartime, and law was
enacted in Tokyo to restrict the size Of
these aerolytes so that the shoguns
camp could not be inspected from the
city.
The kites come in variety Of shapes
birds with expanded pinions, ogres,
flowers, butterflies. A favorite style Is
simple square pointer with the face
OF national hero. The lads glue bits
Of glass to their strings and wage
aerial wars, with the slogan that the
spoils belong to the victor.
They are experts in plotting their
kites and can raise them as far as their
cords will reach without shifting their
position more than yard or two.-Chi-

FESrERDAY,s STOCK MARKET.
Organized Movement for Advance of
 Stocks Continues.

New York. June 23.-The organized movement for the advance in prices of | stocks. continued to-day and further progress was made. The market was | ( n about the same scale of activity as for several years past. The movement however, showed less consistency than yesterday or the day before, owing to the disposition to take profits. The TO- tation through the list was also less complete than yesterday. The days gains as a consequence are less widely distributed and the high prices of the day were less evenly maintained. The weight of selling to realize seems to show a progressive increase the fur ther prices advance and proved less easy to absorb to-day than heretofore. The conductors of the movement, how ever, showed considerable confidence in taking over the stocks made necessary in order to hold the advanced level of prices and were evidently disposed to proceed with the movement. It was said that there were cases where sell ing orders placed above the market had been withdrawn owing to the better feeling inspired by the upward move ment. The selling for London account was a special burden to-day, the for eign markets being unsettled by renew ed anxiety oyer the Moroccan situation. | Operators in stocks, however, showed the same disposition to ignore unfayor- able factors as for several days past. Both the wheat and cotton market were decidedly unsettled by reports of con ditions against the crops. Nevertheless the granger stocks were prominent in | the days advance and were resorted to in the shifting from the Pennsylvania i group. i'll which there was selling to realize on yesterdays advance. The market showed none of its former sen sitiveness to the reiteration of the pres ident's views on control and regula- ton of corporations contained in his speeches yesterday. The demand for the Pacifics were accompanied by re- newed rumors of a coming dividend on Southern Paciflcs. The weeks curren- cy movement has resulted in large accdmulation here, estimates running as high as $7,00O,000. A strong bank re- turn is therefore expected. The buying Isubsided considerably during the af- ternoon and the closing was distinctly easy with the gains reduced to frac- tions and struggling array of smaller loans. .5~
 Bonds were irregular Total sales par value, s3,100,000. United States bonds were all un- changed on call.

PoOLE'S FAMOUS FEAT.

Lucious Poole, a brother of William Poole, the librarian whose name is perpetuated in "Poole's Index and who died in Boston within the past year, was known throughout the coun- try for his rare skill in restoring and repairing old documents and reprints He lived for 30 years in a house at the South End, Boston with / three congenial spirits, one a collector of Dickenson the second of Napolean- ana and the third a collector of first editions. Poole was 8 collector, too of books, letters and programs relat- ing to the stage. He had a remark able faculty for matching old paper and could put a corner or a patch on a letter or a playbill so neatly that 1t could be noticed only under a magnifying glass. MT. Poole's famous feat of splitting a magazine page into four leaves or layers was brought about by an English inlayer, who showed MT, Poole page split in three leaves with the printing on it un- marred. The American said that he could do all that the Englishman had done and more; and after some ex- periments produced a page of the Gen. tury Magazine split in four leaves This was taken to London by book collector who had gone abroad to add to his library, and after the page had been, the rounds of the clubs there it was sent to Paris and caused the Frenchmen to wonder.--Portland Me.
