SOMETHING ABOUT FRUITS.
Why there Is Never Serious shortaG
Plenty at tho Prices.

Why there Is Never IL Serious Shortage.
Plenty at the Prices
"There is no such thing in this coun-
try any more as a famine in any line.
If one staple crop fails here, it is sure to
be all right somewhere else. When we
have no apples here, we get them from
New York or Michigan. If our tomato
yield dries up or fails for any reason,
We can ship them in from Indiana or
Virginia. The only consideration is the
cost Of the freight, aud on canned goods
it Is not important"
The speaker was fruit dealer, and
his words are notably true Besides
this, when one fruit is scarce, another
takes its place. There is no time in
these years OF convenient transporta-
ton when one need suffer for want of
anything, II he has the price.
The peaches about here so far are not
fine, but eastern peaches are plenty.
The railroads bring them all by express,
though, which keeps up the cost. Yes.
terdQy they sold at quarter for half
peck, or seventy-fVe cents crate. The
canning works buy them by the car
load very cheap.
Piums are scarce in this section, but
very fine damsons from Assistance retail
at 81 peck or two quarts for quarter,
which is not unusually high. Grapes
are plenty enough, but owing to the
protraCted dry weather they fall of the
stem. They are sold now ut 10 cents q
quarter peck. Apples are not plenty,
and bring 10 cents for the beat per
quarter peck, and down us low rs 5
cents for those that are worth less.
Tomatoes wore hurt by tho drought.
They were down as low us so cents n
bushel Toy day or two, but yesterday
we're up to 70.
Pears and peaches are plenty at about
even prices with apples, which is an
unusual state OF affairs. Pears are 10
cents u quarter peck, while crab apples
arc fifty per cent:cheaper, They never
seem to fail.
Cantelopes are abundant and un-
usually good. They run all the way
from two for nickel to 10 cents each,
according to size, and oftenest the lit
tie ones are best. The same rule does
not apply to watermelons, which range
from 10 to 20. Tho little ones are
usually good, but the larger ones better.
Tropical fruits are mot in it" much,
except lemons. They are always good
stock" They are 90 cents q dozen
now. Oranges are scarce and in small
demand at so cents u dozen. AS to
bananas, home fruit knocks them out,
and they can be bought for 10 cents or
as low US s cents dozen,
There Is not ms great q variety or
abundance OF fruit as in the ordinary
year, but the supply all along the line
equals tho demand at the prices, and
tho fuct that fancy California stock still
finds about its usual market would seem
to be commentary on tho financial
strlngency.

REVIVE THE EXCHANGE
Rather than Organize an Entirely
New Bank
SEEMS TO Be THE PREVALENT WISH
OF the Depositors who are not Stock.
hoIders-.A Meeting of the Stock
holders Called for September II to
Consider this suGgestion-Advan.
tages of tho Plan,

In view OF repeated suggestions by
persons not stockholders in the Ex'
change Bank that, after all that has
been said and done, it would be wisest
to revive that bank, the directors OF the
corporation met yesterday to hear the
arguments in favor OF this idea. After
considering the matter carefully, they
adjourned to meet again this afternoon,
In the meantime it was decided to for.
mally call q meeting of the stockholders
for September II. A plan will be nre-
pared, based on the suggestions Of those
interested as depositors, but not as
stockholders, to BIO submitted to the
stockholders Mt that meeting.
The idea is to take the bank out OF
the hands OF the assignee and start it
up again with fresh capital. vi course
the success OF such project must de-
pend on the ability to make suitable
arrangement with the depositors, but
inasmuch as the first proposal came
from depositors who are not stockho ld-
ers, and il has been nest warmly advo-
Gated by those similarly situated, it is
believed that no difficulty would be en-
countercd in that direction. The re-
vival OF the bank would certainly be
better for them than the present ar
rangement, as it would place all claims
on definite and equitable basis and set
definite time for payment.
The meeting yesterday was fully at
tended. Assignee Jones voluntarily
handed to the directors an agreement
signed by him and made OF his own
motion, in which he declared that he
would decline to accept the usual
assignee's fees, and would take for his
pay only the salary he had before been
paid as cashier. This means differ.
epce to the bank Of several thousand
dollars in the aggregate.
The feeling OF the community in gen.
eral is Overwhelmingly in favor OF
resuscitating the Exchange bank rather
than forming u new one, and it is
thought that tho stockholders will
adopt the popular course as the Wisest
under all tho circumstances,

THE poNrooN BRIDGE
Being Built at the Foot of Twelfth Street
Completed Last Night.


Completed Last Night.
Some curiosity was developed among
persons along the river front yesterday
afternoon as to the reason for the
anchoring OF two barges in the river at
the foot of Twelfth street, sticking
straight out from the naphtha launch
float. Upon inquiry it was found that
the launch company was constructing q
pontoon bridge, which, while the river
Is low, will be used instead OF the
naphtha launches. This bridge at the
location selected is remarkable for one
thing, that but two bNrges are used.
Last season four were used, but as the
river is now lower than ever before,
barges are only necessary over the
channel, while on the western ap-
proach platform ten feet wide was be-
ing erected Yesterday to connect with the
outer barge. This work was completed
last night.
Mr.. Dillon, OF the yacht company,
Gays that this bridge will BIO used dur.
ing tho extreme low water, and will suit
much better for the handling OF very
large crowds on the Island than by
using the yachts. Several large gather.
ings are in prospect at the new fair
grounds, and the new bridge by its
handy location expects to catch u large
amount OF traffic. For this purpose q
branch bridge jutting out from tho
main one will be built to the river en-
trance to the fair grounds,

A COlOrsd Woman Beats UP White one
Other Cases.
Yesterday morning three or four
women called at police headquarters
aud wanted warrants issued for one
another for disorder. All of them live
in the alley west Of Market street and
north Of Tenth, They we're oil sent
home warrantless. About hatf-past
three in the afternoon telephone mes
sage was received at headquarters, say
ing that riot was in progress in that
alley, and that "about sixteen women
were killing each other" This recalled
the fact that as the women left in the
forenoon there were numerous threats,
such as:
"soon as l git up thar / won't do q
thing but jis do you'ns all up"
The patrol wagon was called, and
Lieut., Terrill, accompanied by Sheriff
Franzheim and an 1NTRLLIdEECER re-
porter, got in, and were driven, as fast
US tho torn-up and crowded condition
OF Market street would allow, to the
scene OF war.
Officer Nick Herbert and Officer Jack
| West were soon added to the posse,
and the over-crowded, illsmelling, ram
shackle brick structure was surrounded
as closely as the maliterous odor would
permit,
The place is disgrace to the town,
an annoyance as well as q menace TO
the neighborhood; ignored by the
health department, holy terror to the
police, who would be glad to clean II
out; an incredibly dirty and digusting
tenement, unfit for animals to occupy.
It was found that Patsy Brown, not a
bad looking colored woman OF her class,
and Liz Carliss, white, had had fight.
The result was, Patsy was crying for
more" and her antagonist had her face
mashed out OF human semblRnce. Both
were locked up,
Pretty soon the Carliss woman said
abe was smotheriRg, and wanted o
doctor, but at last account she was still
smothering and doctorless. Her nose
is possibly broken, both eyes swelled
nearly shut, her face blacker than
Patsy's, aud her whole appearance that

E. w. MacCorkle preached to a large
and attentive congregation at the above
mentioned church. He also assisted in
the Sunday School exercises, which is
alnder the efficient uperintendency OF
@. M. McElwee, Esq, aided by Messrs.
Lowry and Pendleton, of this city. This
School is in a fourishing condition, and
is well attended.
The interior of the church has been
greatly improved by the addition of new
carpet and window shades, which gives
it a very inviting appearance. A large
number of ladies and gentlemen from
this city took advantage of the favorable
weather and were present at these SER
vices. We were glad to see the interest
manifested by the people of that imme-
diate vicinity in this laudable work.

loose silver, say to the honorable P. NJ.
in a clear tone of voice, please give me a
postal note for $l.00. He will take his
punch and give it couple of snaps and
pass the order over to YOU. Hand him
