| The Rose of One day it occurred .to Lietoel that he ought to get married. He went to Sugarman the Shadchan forthwith. **i have the-rery thing for you," said >h* TtMrrlnn hroker. "I* she pretty?" asked UebeL "Her father hu a boot and shoe ware, home," replied Bugarman enthusiastically. "Then there ought to be a dowry with her." said Llebcl eagerly. "Certainly, a dowry! A line mas like you!" "When could I see her?" "I will arrange for you to call next Sabbath afternoon." "Tou won't charge me more than a aoverelgn?" "Not a groschen more! Such a pious maiden! And, of course, i per cent on ' * the dowry?" < "H'm! Well, I don't mind." On the Saturday Llebel went lo aee the damsel, and tin Sunday he went to see Sugarman the Shadchan. T3..4 M.m nnlnt(lH It* cr!?^ OUb J U U4 lUiUUtH WHMIM M? ? ? resentfully. "An excellent thing!" said Sugarman. "A wife who squints can never look her husband straight in the face and overwhelm him. Who would quail before a woman with a squint?" "Why. the girl Is a hunchback!" he protected furiously. "My dear Leibel," said the marriage broker, depreciatingly shrugging his shoulders, and spreading out his palms. "You can't expect perfection!" Nevertheless. Lelbel persisted In his unreasonable attitude. He accused 8ugarman of wasting his time, of making a fool of him. This gave Leibel pause, and he departed without having definitely broken the negotiations. His whole week was befogged by doubt, his work became uncertain, his chalkmarks lacked their decision, and he did not always cut his coat according to his cloth. His aberra lions becarac so marked that pretty Kose Green, the sweater's eldest daughter, who managed a machine in thesame room, divined, with all a woman's intuition, that he was in love. "What Is the matter!" she said in rallying Yiddish, when they were taking their lunch of bread and^cheese. "They are proposing me a match." ho answered sullenly. "A match!"'ejaculated Rose. "Thou!" She had worked by his side for years, and familiarity?bred the second person singular. "Wtth whom?" naked Rose. "With Leah Volcovltch!" "T ??U VnlxAultnhl" irnanbH . T?n? "Leah, the boot and shoe manufacturer's daughter?" Lebel hung his head?he scarce knew why. "And why don't thou not have her?" rfaid Rose. Ijeibel did not reply. "Is it that thou Iikest me better?" she asked. . Leibel seemed to see a ball of lightning is the air; it burst, and he felt the elecliic current strike right through his heart. The shock threw his head up with a jerk, so that his eyes gazed into a face whose beauty and tenderness were revealed to him for the The face of his old acquaintance/had vanished?this was a cajoling, coquettish, smiling face, suggesting undreamed-of things. "Nu, yet," he replied, without perceptible pause. "Nu, good!" she rejoined as quickly. And In the ecstacy of that moment of mutuaf understanding Leibel forgot to wonder why he had never thought of Roie before. Afterwards he remebered ^ that she had always been his social superior. | Before he left that night Rose said to jl him: "Art thou sure thou wouldst not mf rather have Leah Volcovltch?" Y "Sot tor all the boots and shoes In the world," repHed Lei-bel vehemently. The landing outside the workshop was to badly ligniea mat meir uyo vumc ?wgether in the darkness. "Nay, nay, thou must not yet," said Rose. ."Thou art still courting Leah Volcovhch. For aught tfhou knowest. Sugarman the Shadchan may have entangled thee beyond redemption. Lelbol found Sugarman at supper. "You don't mean to say that you give up a boot end shoe manufacturer merely because his daughter has round shoulders!" he exclaimed Incredulously. "It is more than round shoulders?it Is I a hump!" cried Leibel. "Th<vn i shall have to look out for an other, that's all." "No, I don't waot any," replied Lelbel, quickly. Lelbel felt guilty. "But whom have you got In your eye?" he inquired, desperately. Leibel gave a hypocrltlc, long-drawn "Um-m-m. I wonder if Roae Greenwhere I work?"he said, and stopped. "I fear not," said Sugarman. "She Is on my lift. Her father ?ave her to me some months hro,- but he is hard to please. Even tho maiden herself is not easy, being pretty." "Perhaps she has waited for some one," suggested Leibel. * SugarmAn's keen ear caught the note |V of complacent triumph. If "You have bi?en asking her yourself!" [r he exclaimed in horror stricken ac cents. "And If I have?" Raid Llcbel. defiantly And doc* her father know?" "Not yet." "Ah! then I must get hi* canaent," said Sugarmnn, decisively. "I?I thought of speaking to him myaclf." "Now. If you went to her father," pursued the Shndchan, "the odil* nre that he would not oven give his daughter?to say nothing of the dowry." "Yes, I think you had better go,"?ald Leihel eagerly. "But if I do thla thlro* for you I tfjal! want a pound more," rejoined Sugarman. "A pound more!" echoed Leihel In dlJinoy. "Why?" "Because Rosa Oreen's hump Is of gold," replied Sugarman practically. "Also, *h<? is fair to cce, nnd many men desire her." "But you always have your 6 per cant on the dowry." The very next dny Bugarman Invaded the Green workroom. Sugarman'a entry was brUsqu* and breathless. "At laat!" ha cried, atMiaailn* tha the Ghetto. > ? . little white-haired matter - tailor. "I have the very maa for you." "Haa he any money?" grumpily Interpreted Ellpliaz. "He will have money," replied Sugarman. unhesitatingly, "when be marries." "Ah!" The father'a voice relaxed, and hit foot lay limp on the treadle. "Honr much will ie hare?" "I think he will have flftr pound*: and the leaat you can do la to let him have fifty pounds," replied Bugarman, ?a>l?t* aama hnnnir amhlrilltv Kllphas shook his head on principle. 'Yen, you will." fiald Sugarman, "when you learn how line a man lie la." "Tell me, then," rejoined Ellphai. 'Tell ine. flr?(, If you will Blve flftjr to n young, healtbr.hard-worklng Oodfearlnir man whose Idea- Is to start as a master tailor on his own account? And you know how profltable> that Is!" "To a man like thntl" aald Ellphai. PARIS COSTUME WITH LOUIS XVI Black and white combinations, never more fashionable than at the present time, appear In costumes entirely of velvet, or In black cloth tailor-gowns, made with heavily braided white revers and waistcoat. A velvet coat of the popular Louis shape has broad rolling revers and collar of white satin, covered with black chenille braiding. The coat-tall9 open to the waist in the back, and show a lining of white satin, and the blouse and cravat are of tulle dppllqued with white satin. An Oriental clasp fastens the closely folded girdle. The velvet skirt Is mode with a tight-fitting circular upper part, lined throughout, to which is added a flounce, whose fullness Is formed Into narrow box-pleats taken up at intervals and held In place by three Jet and gold buttons. The flounce in a b\irst of enthusiasm, *I would give as much as twenty-seven pounds ten!" "Unless you can promise thirty it Is a waste of time mentioning his name," said Sugarman. "Well, well?who is he?" Sugarman bent down, lowering his voice Into his father's ear. "What! Llebel!" cried Ellphaz, outraped. "Sh!" said Sugarman, "or he will overhear your delight, and ask more. He has hit* nose high enough as It is." "B?b?b?ut," sputtered the bewildered parent. "I know TJebel myself. I see him every day. I don't want a Shadchan to find me a man I know?a mere hand In my own workshop!" "Your talk has neither face nor figure," answered Sugarman, atemly. "It Is Just the people one sees every day that one knows least" Ellphas grunted vaguely and the Shadchan went on triumphantly. "I thought as much. And yet where could you find a better man to keep your daughter?" "But I didn't know he would be hav ing money." murmured Eiipnaz. "Of course you didn't know. That's what the Shadchan is for?to point out thing* that are under your nose." "But where will he be getting this money from?" "From yon." said Sugarman, frankly. "From me?" "From whom else? Are you not his employer? It hes been put by for his marriage day." "He has saved it?" "He has not spent it," said Sugarman, Impatiently. "But do you mean to sav ho has saved fifty pounds?" "If he could manage to save fifty pounds out of your wages be would indeed be a treasure," said Sugarman. "Perhaps it might be thirty." "But you said fifty." "Well, you can come down to thirty," retorted the Shadchan. "You cannot expect him to nave more than your daughter brings." "I nearer oald thirty." Ellpha* reminded him. "Twenty-seven ten of my lAit bid." Sugarman turned up the next day. and reported ihnt Leibel wan unobtainable under thirty pounds, and Efflplias, \v#*ary of the contest, called over Lclbel, till that moment cjycfullv abm?rbed In his scientific chalk mark*, and mentioned the thing to him for th^ first time. "I am not a man to bargain." The formal enpagem^nt was marked by even greater Junketing, and at Inst th* marriage day came. Lelbel was resplendent in a diagonal frock cont. cut by his own hand, and Rosp stepped from the cab n medley of flowers, fairness and white silk, and behind ,hcr canie two bridesmaid*?her sisters?a trio that glorified the spectator strewn pavement outside the synagogue. Lcibel nnd flose wore not tho only couple to be disposed of, for It was the thirty-third d,?y of tho Omer?a day fruitful In marriages. But at lost their turn came. They did not, however, come In their turn, and their special friends anion* the audience wondered why they had lost their preccdence. Gradually the f.iotg leaked out. nnd a buzz of talk a.id comment ran through tbt wilting synagogue. Ellphaa had not paid up! At first "he declared he n*cu!d r-it down the money Immediately after the ceremony. But the wary Sujtfrman. schooled by experience, demanded the instant delivery on behalf of his other client. Hard pressed Eiiphaz produced ten sovereigns from hys trouacio pocket and tendered them on account. And then arose o hubbub of voices, n chaos of suggestions; friends rushed to and fro between the camps some emerging from their seats in a synagogue to add to the confusion. But Eliphas bad taken bis stand upon a rock?he had no more ready money. Tomorrow, the next day, he woifld have some. The minister left his post near the canopy, under which so many lives had been united, and came to add his white for mrnnromiac. But he tared no taettcr than the other*. Incensed at the obstinacy of the antagonists, lie declared he would close the synagogue. At the eighth minute .the bun of tongues faltered suddenly, to be transposed into a . noiv key. so to speak. Through the gostlculatlng assembly swi-nt that fr ' COAT FROM HARPER'S BAZAR. is lined with silk, and no foundatlonsklrt Is necessary. There Is no fulness at the belt behind, and tiny buttons with loops fasten the placket. The width of the ilounce at the foot Is four and a half yards.

In tulip form, has a velvet fan In front which sweeps a broad, bright-colored breast, while at fehe right side is a knot of the same velvet. murmur of expectation which crowds | know when the procession is coming at last. By some mysterious magnetism all were aware that the bride herself? j ths poor hysteric bride?had left the i paternal camp, was coming in person I to plead" with her mercenary lover. And as <he glory of her and the flow- , ers and the white draperies loomed upon Leibel's vision his heart melted in worship, and he knew his citadcl would crumble In ruins at her first glance, at her first touch. Was it fair fighting? As his troubled vision cleared and she came nigh unto him. he saw to his amasement tliat she was speckless and composed?no trace of tears dimmed the fairness of her face; there was no disarray in her bridal wreath. The clock showed the ninth minute^ j She put her hand appeallngly on his arm, while a heavenly light came into | her face?the expression of a Joan of | Arc animating her country. "Do not Rive in, Llchel," she paid. "Do not have me! Do not let them persuade thee! By my life thou must not! Go home!" So at the eleventh mlnuta the vanquished Ellphaz produced the balance, and they lived happily ever afterward. Plica t Plica! Itching Pll*?.

The motor nerve of the world'? market was touched to-day by the reported orders of the government of France to Major Marchanl to retire from Fashoda. There was & prompt recovery in govenment securities in London and Paris and Incorporate stocks at all foreign markets. For the same reason there was a weakening in the wheat market of the world. Including Liverpool, New York, Chicago ami San Francisco. This checked resterday'a advance in the stock market But when it became evident later In the day that there was good pupport In the wheat market from a continued demand for' export In spite of the subsidence of the war scare and of the continued heavy reports there sprang up a demand for railroad stocks which showed Itself more confident and urgent than anything that has been seen in the stock market for several weeks. Naturally, the demand was most manifest for stocks of grain carrying roads. The strength was manifest not only in the granger group proper, but also In the paciflcs, including Northern, Union and Atchison. The preferred stock of the latter road was next to St. Paul, the leader or tne rauroaas in jiuim ?i ?wtivity and was Arm throughout the day, closing with a net gain of 1 per cent The absorption of the stock In the late dealings was on a very large scale. The dullness and heaviness of the stocks of the great eastern trunk lines was in strong contrast, although according to o quoted utterance of the chairman of the New York Central directors. many companies cannot get cars enough to carry the freight coming forward, but are cutting rates and making contracts ahead at llgures below the rate schedule. It is In line with this view to find the gross earnings of the Central for the corresponding quarter last year, while Che balance available for dividend Is 1 55-100 per cent for the quarter compared with 1 70-100 per cent last year. The strength of western. southwestern and southern stocks was quite general. Louisville leading the latter group with an extreme rise of a point The movement of <he Industrial specialties was relatively much less Important than of lote. Tobacco advanced an extreme three points, but met heavy saleW; sugar was raided be low 111, but met the resisting point ana Manhattan, although It weakened early on published utterances tending to discredit reports'' of early electrical equipment, later rose over, a point. Sterling exchange advanced further today In response to the stiffness of foreign money markets, which the clearing of political prospects did not relieve; but the local money market continued easy. The gain of the New Tork banks In cash from gold Imports from the sub-treasury and by reason of the marked decrease in the movement of currency to the interior Is estimated to be not far from- $10,000,000 for the week. How far the reserve requirements have I been expended through enlarged de[ posits by reason of loans made on ster} ling exchange cannot be closely estimated, but it may run as high as $15,000,j 000. The bond market broadened nnd im| proved in the course of the day nnd snows gains generally. xwai ouiea, $2,340,000. United States 2s registered advanced % and the 3s registered declined per cent in the bid price. The total saies of stocks to-da?y were 215,200 shares. BONDS AND STOCK QUOTATIONS. U.

CHICAGO?Though the disappearance of the European wnr scare was the ostensible leadlnir influence in wheat today the action of the market here Indicated that the trade had been pretty well water-logged by the enormous quantities sold durlntr the last few days. Price* slumped sharply near the close. December wheat closed l^c lower. Corn lost IfllHc. Oats declined %e. Pork, lard and ribs each left off 10c lower. The disappearance of the European iv ir fiim<ir? iiikI i>nh!n fliivlpon Ihnt the continental -markets were entirely Indifferent to the excitement raised yesterday, caused a concession In prices o? wheat here at the opening. English consols had also recovered yesterday's decline and wheat at Liverpool closed lH?l%d lower than last night. With puch an array of conditions confronting them even In the roost radical bulls considered It prudent to at least wait for a reaction In prices. The fact that the northwest receipts amounted to 1.190 carloads as compared with 852. for the corresponding day Inst year and tho total primary market arrivals were liberal. did not Increase the bull courage. Nevertheless the seaboard reported export biislnesa early and had tho total up to seventy boat loads long before noon. In addition to that there were sales here ot ZW.UUV Dunnvis cukii wm-ui *??. iuc lower level of prlcces and the northwest weather news was disquieting on nccount of the flertops dntnnirc to the crop In Manltobh. Export clearings from the Atlantic ports were equnl #to $521,000 bushels anil Chicago receipts only amounted to 237 earn, against 247 for the same day last week. Primary market receipts were 1,385,000 bushels, against 1.041,000 bushels a year ago an<l the trade was counting on an tncreuso of 1.500,000 bushels for the week in tho risible supply. Ther was a good general trade and it was under thoiecon* illtlonH that December wheat; which opened %4$lc lower at C7{j<C7^4c ranged between 0676<t?'67%Q during tho forenoon with the price most of tho time at 67%c, As the scsslorv beared the close it was evident that the offerings <>f -tho last two days were more than tho market ( could absorb and December sold oft to <W?tc and closed nt PHc. Msy ket>t precisely 1c premium and closed at 67^4c. Better weather, lower cables and a disappearance of the Nile Incident counted against com at the start. There was nencrons sellln? of long com by large Interests and despite heavy covering by shorts there was quite a backset in prices. Kansas City told of liberal acceptances of round lota of cash corn there by foreign buyers, but that was ignored entirely and prices were hammered down and the market closed weak near the bottom figure for the day. December opened HCttc lower at 33<?3?V:C, declined to 3t%c and closed at 3l%031%c sellers. Oata weakened with the other grain markets and on influential selling both to take proflta and for the short account May began ttO | Vic lower at 24K034%c. declined to 21%c. then rallied to 24c, the closing figure. mm 1 Large receipts of bogs everywhere, I ?? i_ 1-- 1IV??.l ..1.. me we?Rnraa in bi?mi? on11 iiuntai mva by English houses, especially of Urd, unfavorably affected provisions. Nevertheless the market absorbed the offerings better than was the case in the grains and the price did not suffer so badly. A weak turn In the grain market at the close sent the provision market down to the lowest figure of the session. January pork opened l%o down at 19 20, advanced to J9 30, then dropped to >9 !S4 buyers at the close. January lard began 5c lower at J5 lZVj. held steady at that figure and nnally declined to >6 07%. the closing figure. January ribs started Be off at S4 8TH and sold off to J4 77% buyer* at the close.

NEW YORK?There was a centering of Interest to-day In the dry goods market in the print cloth situation. Tho news from Fall River of the completion of the agreement fur curtailment and trustees for the sale of the surplus stocks of the mills has added stability to the general market for cotton goods. There was a generally better feeling in quarters where stable goods were handled. Buyers in the market to-day were not prepared to be more liberal in their offers than they have been heretofore. In Jobbing stores the business pacing was of about an average character. There was little interest manifested by buyers in the local market and the mail records were light. Silks were strong as a result of the auction sale of yesterday where better prices prevailed than was expected by some operators. Reports from Fall River are'such as tend to make the market stronger. There are plenty of bids for extras at 2 cents and so far manufacturers aro ready sellers at that quotation. MrlnU.
