movement OF stocks here was sharply
downward Union Pacific, Steel, St.

Of all descriptions reached new low
levels for the decline. and their sub
stantial losses In all quarters For-
eign markets were disturbed by the
prospect OF renewed hostilties in the
Balkans. and some uneasiness Was felt
In London regarding the approaching
fortnight settlement. London disposed
OF perhaps $4,000 shares here, on bal
ence, and there was some selling hero
on direct orders from the Continent.
Pressure from abroad was an I'm.
portant fact in the markets movement.
Traders showed no desire TO attempt
TO mark up price, here In the face OF
heaviness abroad, especially in view OF
the fact that should they succeed they
would merely be holding out added in
6ucements for further liquidation Of
European holdings OF American stocks.
Professional operators took advantage
of the situation to sell stocks They
were helped by further liquidation OF

How is it TO be explained that ii has

noted archaologist, Marcel Dieulafoy.
He has some arresting theories about
the relation of Persian architecture TO
that which was evolved In Spain, and
his earlier chapters will greatly ap-
peal to the scholar. The ordinary stu
dent will find him more practically ser
viceable in his account Of Romanesque,
Gothic and Renaissance buildings. In
any history Of Spanish art the bulk Oh
the space must, Of course, be given 10

divers interesting Primitives, the Span

fair adequacy, but he hardly shines as
an interpreter Of the pictorial phase or

sketch of Portuguese art completes a
volume not unworthy Of the series In

readable or as profitable as certain OF

COLONEL RANDOLPH.

Colonel Randolph went ahead with his
work az II the country were basking I'm
peace. When the rebels seized a portion
OF his line he had 10 yield; but he yielded
gracefully, still preserving his attitude OF
strict neutrality. The rebels admired him
and RETAINED from the wholesale destruc-
ton Of his property. Presently they de-
dided TO ask the courteous and obhging
colonel not to operate his trains.
Colonel Randolph smiled and reminded
the rebels of the troublesome feature Of
the railroads charter requiring him 10
operate trains daily or attempt to do so.
Only an act Of God or an act OF war
that made the line impossible OF opera
ton could excuse his failure 10 do so.
That was satisfactory to the rebels. They
saved the roads charter and accomplished
their own ends by burning few bridges
not Wholesale burning, but just enough
TO make impossible the operation OF thosr
sections OF the roads they had asked
Colonel Randolph not To operate.
Not long thereafter the government oil

THE EXCURSION STAMP.

When Jeffery Farnol, the novelist, was
painting signs in New York and writing
stories that nobody would buy, he was,
of course, hard up.
"Farnol." said New York editor, tells
me that in those days postage was his
curse 1t cost him such lot, you know,
to post his heavy stories TO the maya
zines, and, OF course, he had to pay the
postage back as well on their rejection.
"Farnol said it seemed to him in those
days that the worlds crying need was a
cheap excursion stamp, there and back,
for authors manuscripts"
