GREATLY ATTACHED TO 1T
Husband Who Had Married Money"
Acknowledged the Truth to His
Friends Query.

Apropos of a beautiful young wife,
worth ssA@o.O 900, who had just di-
vorced her penniless husband In or
der to marry again, Henry Il. Dixey,
the comedian, said at dinner in New
York:
The young man who marries for
money has none too easy a time of it.
His rich wife is likely to tire Of him
and throw him out in a few years, or
else she is likely to limit his allow
ance to 25 or so cents day.
"T married money a man once
said to me.
Wasn't there a woman attached
to it?' l asked.
"'Yes, you bet there was, he ex-
ploded, so much attached to it that

Ace of OYSTERS.

Oysters grow only during the sum-
mer and especially during the long,
warm summer at that, and are scarce
ly big enough for the mouth before
the third year. 1t is easy after look
ing over bunch Of shells to tell how
old an oyster is. A summer hump and
the winter sink come across the shell
every year, but after the seventh or
tenth year full growth comes; then, by
looking at the sinks between the
humps 1t is hard to tell anything
more about Miss Oysters age oysters
live to be twenty years old.

the best Of it. although according to
Judge Gary the trust is we'll satisfied
with its percentage of new bookings. AS
pointed out in these letters the great
bulk of talent in the steel trade Is
represented by the independent manu-
facturers, and with the steel trust hold
ing an umbrella over the trade the indie
pendents are very certain to get their
full share Of whatever new business
comes In sight. When the situation was
looking so bad few short weeks ago
there was acute danger of a rupture IN
prices. It was largely owing to the
urgency and diplomacy of Judge Gary
that battle royal was averted.
Now the men who were loudest In their
opposition to the Gary policy of MAIN
tanning prices until times improved are
most vociferous in his praise. Some OF
them are going SO far as to suggest
testimonial Of some sort in token of their
appreciation of the judges superior WIS
dom. Judge Gary has taken II high rank Tx
as the great apostle Of optimism. He

Sunday covering by shorts and decided
activity on the part of bull leaders con-

had a part in bringing about the general
scamper by shorts. Mills northwest led

able giving out of bear pressure. None

from the strength of grain, better call

upon the reports that leading importers

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, March 4.-The cotton
market continued more or less nervous

the early market suggesting support from
the bull leaders. prices soon eased of.
closing a point or two up from the lowest
on active months. Supporting orders ap-
peared below I4.35 for May. but the buy
ing was by no means aggressive, although
rather a better feeling was apparent in the
late trading owing to rumors that Canada
had asked for a delay in action on the
reciprocity bill, and that an extra session
of Congress was consequently less likely.
Gables from Liverpool indicate that
Lancahire spinners will meet March 10
and discuss a proposal to curtail the

days for three months.
