those who are in sympathy with the pro-
gressive spirit of the age"
The Rev. Mr.. DaCosta, Mr. Strong said.
is somewhat Of a difficult person 10 get
along with. This accounts, he thinks. for
the fact that, while man of undoubted
ability, he has never risen to higher posi-
ton in the church. AT the time of Phillips
Brooks election as bishop of Massachu-
sets and prior to his conservation Mr.. Da-
Costa circulated a pamphlet among the
members of the Episcopal hierarchy con-
tanning extracts from Bishop Brooks
writings, intended TO show hereticai ten
denotes on his part. When this was brought
TO the attention of Brooks he laughed and
remarked that DaCosta was a moth eats
angel"
Al The time of DR.. Briggs ordination to
the Episcopal ministry, DR.. DaCosta and
others in sympathy with him attempted
10 overturn the governing committee of
the diocese and substitute a new commit
tee favorable 10 their views upon the ques-
tons at issue, but were most ingloriously
defeated, showing, Mr.. Strong said, that
Bishop Potter and not Dr. DaCosta was
the true representative of Episcopal senti-
ment in New York
Referring to the discussion of the divorce
question by the Episcopal Church Con-
gress at st. Paul, and the report that the

laung to divorce so as to prohibit the re-

divorce where the divorce has been grained
on the ground of adultery, but does not
permit of remariiage where divorce has

do not think anything Of the kind is likely
TO prevail"

PLENTY For SUNDAY DINNERS
The Market well Supplied With All
Sorts of Things.

Sorts OF
To the Chinese maxim that the road to
mans heart is through his stomach the
areraea housewife would probaly object
on nrinciple; nevertheless she carries II
ont in practice, and in consequence is al
wavs deeply interested in what Is IN mar
ket.
Inst at present she is in tolerably con-
tented frame of mind, for she can choose
from great variety of garden produee.
THE prolonged warm weather has pre-
served many strictly summer vegetables
mill much after the time they usually
disannear while the early winter produce
is coming in plentifully, and, between the
two, can supply any reasonable taste.
On the vegetable side of the market the
stalls present an attractive and wholly ap-
petizing appearance; new red beets alter
nate with green cabbages, and long strings
of red and green peppers selling at cents
a string: while caulihower, crisp radishes;
and the usual supply of homely, though
succulent. sweet potatoes, turnips aru-
chokes Just dug, purple egg plants, snap
and wax beans, pigeon and COW peas, col
lards called greens by the stall keepers,
bell peppers, pears and apples, are an III
profusion and at reasonable prices. snap
beans and bell peppers sell Tor ~ cents
q quart and wax beans and cranberries
at the same price, while punches of white
turuips. containing from six to ten, sell
as low as cents. Caulifiower is from 10
10 25 cents a head, the price varying ac-
cording to the size, and the same Is the
case with the egg plant, which ranges
from 10 cents up.
Purple or Bavarian cabbages are also
in market, but whether they are bought
exclusively by the literati who remember
Goethe's fondness for purple cabbage and
bludwurst. the "mommer" in charge of the
stall could not say.
Meats are also plentiful. The beef sold
is almost entirely the product OF the west,
hut the local butchers furnish the greater
part of the pork. Chops sell at l21sc
pound, while very young and tender pigs,
fl subjects for Lambs famous desserta-
ton. are sold whole and are very popu-
lar among Savannahs epicures. Long
festoons of sausages adorn the stalls and
sell at lOc a pound.
Fish also are plentiful, are of various
kinds. and cheap, 20 and 25c string that
contains from three to six, being the pre-
yailing price. Winter trout are just
coming in and have at present the largest
sale but the stallman thought this only a
passing fancy as, whiting was always de

oysters are in excellent condition. but
not over plentiful and readily bring 25c
