Barrell We think it advisable to take profits on any further bulge as reactions are natural and to be ex-

Pringle We think wheat Is ulti

mately going higher for July and Sep

ther bulge today is in order and chance

replacink It to better advantage. We

think it a purchase on all breaks.

Miller We still adhere to our be

lief that a very much higher range of

on the verge of a rise with the pros

pect of a vote for the 5-cent fare. The trend of Southern Pacific is still

upward and Harrriman followers are buying on every little weakness. We have great reason and faith in North

ern Pacific which should be bought and held. There is no reason why Loco, should not advance further. The

coal group should be kept to display bullish activity. Low priced stocks

are still under manipulation of pools.

A Prison Marriage.

CCOOOOOOOOOOOOOCOOOOOOCXXX) Original. It Is matrimony day In the prison. In the reception room stand a row of women to be chosen as brides. There are about a dozen of them, and as many men will be brought up to choose them. They are members of a penal colony on the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, In British India. These matrimonial candidates are chosen for good behavior. When married they are given a hut and a few acres of ground on one of the islands and left together to make a home. As I was saying, it is matrimony day, Saturday these receptions take place on Saturday and the candidates for husbands are In line, only women being present. The record of a man was read, giving his name, religion, age and the crime he was there for. Then he was admitted to the room where the expectant brides were standing. He looked strangely at them, for he had not seen a woman for ten years. Slowly he approached the woman standing at the head of the line of those who were of his religion. He chatted with her a few minutes and passed on to the next While conversing with the first two or three he covertly cast his eye down the line. Suddenly he started, put his hand to his brow and passed the palm over his forehead. Then he went on chatting with the women as he passed them till he came to one near the end of the line. She turned away her face. 'Ton are" he said and paused. "I am." "And yon know me?" "I might not have known you had I not heard your name and record read. You have suffered much." "Did you know your act brought me here?" "No." "And the child?" "I am here for the child as you are here for me." The man shuddered. - "Did you see It die?" "No; I got another to do it" "Why?" "I did not wish it to suffer." The man paused, then said: "They made a mistake in sendingTne here for you. Perhaps they have made another in sending you for the child." "I hope not" "Why?" "Because if that is so she Buffers." They talked fpr some time, and at the end of their conversation the man announced to the prison authority that he chose this woman. They went up to a table, and her history was read to him. The man who read did not know that they were a married pair. A dozen years before poverty had maddened them. They quarreled, the woman disappeared, and every one was sure her husband had murdered her. She had given be daughter to be drowned given her to a woman whom she thought a friend, but who was a secret enemy. This woman told

that she had been hired to do the deed, and the mother was convicted. The couple talked over what they should do. If they had known their child was dead, they would not have hesitated. They would have said nothing, but taken the home they were to receive on the Nieobars. But they did not know this. Should the man claim his freedom and look for the child? If he did so, the woman must remain a prisoner. They had been parted by the torment of poverty. If they took the home given them by the government, they would need little, and that little they would have. What should they do? The woman decided. She would remain in prison while the husband went to look for the child. The man made his claim for freedom, his wife's existence proving his Innocence. After much delay he was pardoned. This Is the only short way civilized nations have yet found for untying the knot of a wrong conviction. The man went away; the woman resumed her work. She could have stood the next Saturday in the matrimonial line, but she did not. She waited long and anxiously. Never did a prison official approach her but she looked at him eagerly to see if he were coming to tell her if her husband had returned. A year passed. One day she heard her name called and, looking up, saw a keeper at the door. He beckoned to her. With a wildly beating heart she dropped her work and followed him. He took her to the office of the superintendent There she saw her husband holding by the hand a girl of twelve. Strange meeting! Fate that had separated them ten years before through the maddeniDg influence of poverty had brought them together. They were where they had been when they were driven apart, but how changed! Greater trials had made the earlier ones seem light. They clung together in an embrace, the husband and wfcfe weeping, the child smiling as an Indian seldom smiles. But the mother was still a prisoner. She had not been convicted of murder, but the intent to murder. There was nothing for which she could be pardoned. She must serve her life sentence. The superintendent solved the problem. "Go back," he said to the man, "to your cell. Next Saturday you and your wife shall be married and go to live on Nicobar. There you shall have the best home I can make for you." The next Saturday among the marriages performed in the Andaman prison was one that had been authorized a year before. They were taken to their new home, given some provisions and for the first time in years were happy. ROSALIE WHITING.
