THE BRIDE WAS PLEASED

Jerome X. Jerome recently told a
story-a true story, he declared-illus-
trating the English cockney's idea of
enjoying himself. Mr.. Jerome was con-
graduating a workman he knew on his
recent wedding.
II hear you are just back from your
honeymoon" he said. "Where did you
go?"
"Didn't go anywhere, sir" was the
reply. "Leastways, we went to foot
bali match that day"
Did your wife enjoy it?" asked the
novelist.
"Oh, yes" said the man. We'll
didn't she Just! Why, sir they mobbed
the referee, and my Sal was lucky
enough to get swipe at him with her
umbrella. Yes, sir, she enjoyed the

MARINE NOTES
America and Americans

A correspondent writes to the Lon
don Times that William Pitt once said'
America, Canada and Louisiana are
the three countries of North America.
At the time he said that louisiana
meant the vast territory west of the
Mississippi, which was subsequently
sold toS he United States by Napoleon,
At a time when the United states had
the Mississippi for it's western bound7
ary. and had not frontage on the
Gulf of Mexico Pitt spoke of 1t as
"America," without explanation or
qualification. He took 1t for granted
that none was needed. His terse de-
scription of this country is much more
appropriate now that the United States
has absorbed Louisiana" one or the
three parts into which Pitt said the
continent was divided. In addition TO
that 1t has come into possession OF
Alaska, which Pitt may have thought
was a part of Canada, If he thought or
IL at all. 1t Is too late to question the
indefeasible right of the citizens of the
United States to be recognized as the
only unqualified and unconditional
Americans, and of their country to be
known simply as America,-Chicago
Tribune.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1S-Prices on
the stock exchange have been we'll
sustained this week on a somewhat
diminished demand of "spotty"
character. Industrials and low priced
railroads have been the favorites, but
have supported the general list by
sympathy. The drop in foreign eX-
change and the passage of the French
demand for American gold have
helped the market. Peace rumors
abroad also resulted in some foreign
demand in this market for stocks.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1S.-Union Pacific
extended it's remarkable advance to-
day on large dealings and served as u
moderately sustaining influence for the
rest of the stock market. It's rise TO
$1.2SB added nearly three points to it's
previous record on this movement, and
Northern Securities on the curb and
Great Northern preferred kept it conl-
pany. Buying for foreign account was
an important element in the movement.
1t was believed that the small effect
on foreign markets of the tragedy in
Russian prompted buying of stocks,
but the demand for the Northern Sc
curities' group was more adequately
explained by the knowledge that fav-
orable statements of the earnings of
the constituent companies were pub
lished in London this afternoon.
Southern Pacific and st. Paul made
moderate responses to the Union Pa
cific movement but there was not
much in the market otherwise outside
of the specialtieS.
Stocks connected with the leading in
dustries were strong and there were
rumors of plans for combinations.
The discussion of a possible strike of
New Haven firemen was an influence
in the market.
There was a special movement in
Chicago Great Western and rumors
we're current of a probable absorption
of this property in the interest of larg-
er competing system.
The bank statement was more faV-
orable than expected.

ever, showed some loss, May being 9sc
lower to Ac higher, at $119A al. 1873.
July was off 1Ac TO &c, at $1.00A al. OF u.
The May delivery assumed suprem-
acy in the pit trading in that option
early in the day being extremely
heavy. At the start sellers filled the
pit. but offerings met with little de-
mand. Within a few minutes May

On the decline shorts bought liber-
ally and the price was forced up again
to $1.193s. Meantime finally eased off
to $1.1S. but later rallied a trifle in
sympathy with the upturn in May.
The market was influenced consider
ably by the weakness of foreign grain
markets. Lower prices abroad were
said to be due to the enormous in
crease in shipments from Australia.
trading narrowed down to small trans
actions. May closed rather weak,
3031ac lower, at $1.193s s01.19h. July

Gelson refused, giving his marriage as n
reason.
lt5now appears that Gelson had Il pre-
arrangement with Mrs. Hubbard at tho
same time. What this 1fleans no one will
say. Meanwhile Dillon Wallace Is going
his way, hoping to find what Hubbard
could not, ignorant that his dead friends
widow Is In his wake. No one here be-
lieves that Wallace had the least sus-
lplcion that Mrs. Hubbard was about to
go to Labrador.
Mrs. Wallace Is a cultured woman, fond
Of outdoor pleasures. She accompanied
her husband on his first trip us far as
5Rlgolette in 1903, then returned to st.
Johns to stay until he should return.
Mrs. Hubbard did not like some state
ments in Wallace's book telling OF tho
exploring trip and Hubbard's death, es-
pccinlly where Wallace questioned his
friends Judgment when he said that the
party had plunged into the region with
out any definite knowledge Of how or
whore they were going and that with
out provisions" 1t was this statement
that led to the enlargement Mr. ,,al-
lace's friends are now trying to get into
communication with him, but It Is not
likely that he will be heard from for
months. He Intended to come back by
the middle OF October.

NEW YORK. June H.-Snce 1868 the
annual death rate from heart disease
and Bright's disease up to the end Of
1904 has increased from 1906 to 2o.62 per
10000 population. In 1903 with the same
ratio. to 1901. there was an increase in
deaths from these diseases of 242 IN
each 10000. While this was considered an
alarming increase in the mortuary rec
ords, the fact that 125 persons died last
week from organic heart disease. when
the death rate the corresponding week
in 1904 was only &c, has given rise to che
belief among physicians that New York
residents are living too rapid lives.
Tho strain Of business and the cares
attendant on fierce competition in the
financial centre Of the city and the worry
attendant on anxiety to gain wealth are
