ing abroad were feeling In particularly
good humor one evening, and when
toasting the absent member* In Muen-
chencr. Pllslner and Wurxburgrer. They
were feeling very kindly disposed In
deed to their brethren abroad and
finally one man said:
"Let'* tend them n letter."
There wasn't any letter paper handy
and one postcard wouldn’t have been
large enough to contain fill the greet
ings that the members Intended to
send. So they were pusxled for a time
until one man, who was so hopelessly
old-fashioned as to wear detachable
cuffs, was seised with an idem.
"Here." ha cried, drawing off his
cuffs, "why won't on© of these doT'
Tho novelty seised upon all the mem
ber*. They crowded about the man.
He pressd one cuff out and flat and
then prepared to write on It.
One artistic member drew several
some German verse that fitted the oc
casion. Every one about had a chance
to write o n the cuff, and finally it was
all covered 1 over.
There were still some folk# there who
wanted a chance to get their names
down and nothing would do but that
the suggester should put his other cuff
at their service. The artist drew on
this some caricatures of the absent,
and evcntuallv tho cuffs were carefully
addressed and stamped, and a member
ran out while the Idea was hot to put
them In th* letter box.
That kind of thing lint at all rare,
the postal folks say. They are ac
customed to getting all sorts of stuff
through the malls, some of It being
of the sort that Is troublesome ana
still cannot be refused.
For Instance, one merry Jester elect
ed to send through the mall# a wo
man's corset, Just bound with a string
and stamped and addressed. This the
postoffice people assumed wasn't a
woman, nnd they had their own opin
ion of the sort of man who would do
a thing of that kind. Their opinion
was all tho sharper because the corset
was directed to be forwarded to a
woman, and furthermore It was not the
sort of package that a department store
would be at all likely to make up.
One man who ha dbeen In the city vis-

NEW YORK. Nov. 14.—The slowing
down of ths speculative pace In the ato.k
mat kef from that or yesterday woe due
In port, no doubt, to the customary prac
tices of evening up all financial transac
tions with the close of a weak. Thera
wa« a gamering of profits accrued by
iho.-e prompted by this sentiment Thera
wn.i a marked decline, also, from yester-
> s furious activity. One or two items
in the day's news increased the tendency
to pause, one was the statement attri
buted to President Corey, of the United
States Steel Corporation, placing the
present working of its mills at 00 per
c *nt of capacity and putting forward tho
probable date for restoration of normal
and healthful conditions on business to
the middle of next summer. The reac
tion of United States Steel was of strong
sympathetic effect on the whole market.
It was scarcely counteracted by the vig
