more flee dogs, and I don’t intend to stop
until I've given the poisoner s„me work to
do, for the dog* wili%uok every egg in half
a mils of the house, and will play thunder
generally. I’ll bet that fellow, whoever be
is, will wish be had never poisoned my set

settled himself down to his work, thinking
of the little dead fice on his farm, near

SHOULD A GIRL. HESITATE?
Diverging Opinions of Two Maidens as
to Woman’s Sweetest Hour.
From the New York Herald.
A young girl, attractive though not
pretty, bright and witty, well read and well
bred, whom I love dearly, asked me the
other day what I thought was woman’s
sweetest hour.
I have since then discovered her reason
for asking the question.
She anticipated my answer with the
preface that she thought it was wheD, hav
ing brought the man of her choioe to the
point of proposing, she keeps him waiting a
few moments for her answer, regarding tho
nature of whioh she has given no inkling so
strong as to make it certain that it will be
"Yes.”
I am also a Jyoung girl, three years her
senior. I have not yet experienced that
"sweet hour”—not,at least, from a welcome
source. Htili, I can well understand that to
see and feel the anxiety of one’s lover, and
to know that It is all caused by love for you,
should aonstitute unbounded happiness.
Yet my friend’s idea strikes me as some
what insincere and a trifle cruel. Were
I ever called upon to answer the most im
portant question of mv life, propounded by
the man of my heart, I would flod keener
joy in unhesitatingly saying “yes” than to
feign a doubtfulness I did not feel.
A ! ttle beating about the bush at the out
83'. is perhaps proper enough, but when you
have assured yourself that you are dealing
with an honest mao that loves you I think
that all parrying and diplomacy bad better
be supplanted by frankness and sincerity.
I think the honorable wooer is entitled to as
much information os he bas imparted to his
sxeetheu.t.

“i'ulki- g obout ipook raisers,” said a

“ When I sought out the medium for an

The stock market to-day was insignificant in
every respect, and reflected only the waiting
attitude of operators, trailing being extremely
small and fluctuations strictly in accordance.
Foreigners were inclined to buy, but the trading
element was bearish, and there was no dis
position to trade by domestic operators. Tbe
reeling abroad was Indicated by higher figures
in London this morning, and this produced
generally higher prices at tbe opening here,
which, however, were soon neutralized by short
sale* by the trading element. No material
change occurred, however, and the expecta
tion of a good bank statement, which was dis
appointed, developed a firmer tone before the
expiration of the first hour. Prices were
brought up to a shade better than the opening
figures, and kept there for the remainder of
the session. Lackawanna was tbe only feature
of the day developing marked strength in tho
last hour, and moving up sharply on buying of
traders, scored the only material gain of the
day. Of the other stocks. St. Paul, Louisville
and Nashville, Burlington and Quincy and Chi
cago Gas were more active tnan the general
list, but failed to make more than a slight
fractional advance. Silver Certificates were
atrong and active again. The bank statement
met all expectations, making a remarkable
showing and served to keep the market firm to
the close, which was dull at best prices, but
only slightly better than last evening Trading
reached only 47,381 shares of bated and 2,530
Shares of UDiisted.

The Sun'* cotton review says: “Futures
opened with an uncertain appearance, presently
advanced, then declined, further declined
closing easy at 2®3 points decline from yester
day's closing prices. The early advance was
due to the demand to cover contracts, when
buying for account oeased, prices fell off. and
the general absence of speculative interest and
the absence of spirit shown by bulls led to a
further decline, under which tnelowest figures
of the season were made. There was a good
deal of talk that values bad ‘touched bottom ’
but no one seemed inclined to act upon it
Crop accounts indicated that more rain is
needed ip Texas, and that warm, dry weather
is needed in the northern belt, wnere the grass
is becoming troublesome. Spot cotton was
quiet. ”

Chicaoo, June 20.—Although the early news
on this board this morning was of a very bear
ish nature, there were so many buying orders
in the pit at the opening that the price for July
was up to 94)40 almost instantly, and it tarried
only a bare minute or two before making a
further advance of )£o. Much of July wheat
was bought around 24®94)5c. The price ad
vanced later to 95)£e, and under the influence
of realizjng sales there was a drop to 94)Jc, but
a fresh batch of buying orders came in and
there was a quick up-turn to 9S)fSc. Again the
selling carried the price off to 9iH@9lk3e.
shorts having apparently covered. Later cables
reported firmness on the Continent, and a re
action here left July at 95c at the close, a net
gain for the day of Trading was spirited
and geuerous in volume throughout the sessioD.
There was a strong disposition to sell corn at
the opening, which was quickly followed by an
equally urgent demand. July opened at 55)4
@s6c, a drop of )sc. Covering shorts caused a
rapid whirl to sts(®s6)6c, followed by heavi
ness. The market broke to 5554 c and 55Mc.

tereit in the oats market. Trading in July fut
ures began at 30c and closed at 35)$c. The
provision market opened lower in response to
lower prices at the yards. A reaction followed,
but later hog products became very weak.
Pork declined 25c from the highest price of the
day and was 17)£c lower thau Friday. Lard
and rihs also made their highest pric s in the

HOW WALES DRES3ES.
Wide Ban(?9 of Variety fl-om Paris tal
That la the Highland l ".
From the Clothier and Furnisher.
The Prince of Wales is colonel of good-J
ness only knows how many regiments, comJ
mander of countless vessels, and holds com-l
missions in crack corps of a dozen otheil
countries besides his own; it being court!
etiquette that princes shall wear in enchl
other’s society uniforms pertaining to each!
other’s respective dominions, while ini
compliment to the officers of any ship oil
regiment be may happen to visit, the Princal
of Wales must wear their full uniform fori
dress occasions and their mess or fatigual
uniform for dining and chatting with themj
Albert Edward is a splendid lightuiug-1
change artist in his way, and can got ini
and out of any amount of paraphernalia ini
the course of a day and evening. 1
He is an imposing figure in uniform, bufl
makes rather a weighty soldier, being nofl
longer in the heydey of youth and iittiel
given to martial ambition, like bis warlik*
nephew. To be seen at his best H. R. H.l
must be found in evening dress aud in thM
character of the charming man of society J
which is most naturally his. Were hea j
what ho is, he would be the c.unterpart ofl
his American friend, Chaunoey M. iiepewJ
being the cleverest after-dinner speaker i:9
England,aud.furthermore, able to say clovlß
things in exquisite French and Germaa.B
His character may be readily summed upfl
in the remark he once made to a gentleman
who asked him if he did not feel a repugi
nance at visiting M. and lime. Carnot ml
company with tho princess when in Far:s.H
“Why?” he replied, “I don’t like his got®
ernraeut, but he is the hoad of the nation J
nnd my friends will scarcely worry for fetfl
of my becoming a republican.” ■
This caty-going willingness to accept an™
situation not absolutely compromise ;:, wntß
becoming gravity, nowhere betrnys itsel®
so much as in his dress, which, while
suited to his convenience and comfort.]®
always thoroughly in harmony with ’
surroundings. In "Scotland, where, by tb®
way, he has not been much of late,
his sons always compromise with the
tional dress by making their tramps a--®
hunting or flsuing excursions clad in
garb of tbo canny Scots who accompssJ®
them. At Sandringham, when outef
tho Prince usually woars rough
corduroys, with close-fitting ' pig-sta
gins, as he is likely to mount at sty
ment and canter away to
part of his estate. In Tendon he 1?
seen in public in other than a perfect fIMFjM
frock coat over very fine French
trousers, aud with a white flower in wi™
buttonhole. When in Paris be

of a dark material, as light or gaudy P*‘®
torus at once stamn the Englishman at t
French capital, reserving those gorge’ oß ™
eccentricities into wkicn bo oociuuona*
plunges for Homburg or Cannes. ■

People who are fond of remarking the

man forget, that he is no longer a toy,
hard on the road to thirty, ar.d t
furtbermore, ho is considered in E u i? l ®’\
be about as useless and unimportant j*
can well be. He is neither a popular so ™
man, a talker, a speech-maker, nor ft . .® 1

and awkward. He seldom appears in P j
except in company with his ls , iter®
alludes to him as “ray son,” as if *>
ten yea's old. He is always rumor 1 ’ j®
on the point of marrying, but is * *
