WHAT THE MARKET AFFORDS.
vegetables for Which Local Truck
ers Find the Best Sale.

From the appearance of things in the
market. local hucksters have not suffered
much damage as a result of the present
drought which has not been relieved a
great deal by the recent intermittent rains.
vegetables are not only plentiful, but their
fresh look shows that they have stood up
we'll in the face of unfavorable conditions
There is not reported 10 be any great
shortage in the truck crops as compared
With this season last year.
The local demand for vegetables Is
wholesome enough to absorb about all the
crop. and, as a result, few shipments are
renorted. This is a decided advantage
Tor truckers, as they reap larger profits
on quick sales at home than they do on
shipments. which are always consigned at
considerable risk. The home sales mean
ouick and sure returns, while on the
other hand the farmer is relieved of long
expectancy, only to find n many instances
mat much of the consignment was re-
caived in bad order, and had to be dis
posed of at a sacrifice.
Among the plentiful truck crops is toma~
toes which we're heapcd on all stalls yes
terday during the early hours Some were
going at cents a quart, but the better
quality sold two quarts for Is cents. In
duality the better part of the local crop

nessee this year, and which, by the way.
are loaded into any mans basket at Is
and 20 cents a bushel. All the crop con-
sists of the rich, rosy red variety, there
being only driblets of the yellow.
Other things were offered at moderate
prices Green pepper sold two quarts for
is cents. butter beans Is cents a quart,
roasting ears 10 cents a quart, white po-
tatoes 10 cents a peck, cantaloupes cents
each, egg plant cents each, cabbage 10
cents a head, cooking apples cents d
quart, malaga grapes a and 5-pound bas-
kets) % cents a basket. and preserving
pears 10 cents quart, or two quarts for
Is cents.
Notwithstanding the current reports that
the peach crop was completely destroyed.
the continued receipts of fragments seems
10 indicate that it was not knocked COM
pietely out of the ring, as is generally be
lieved Many of the truckers yesterday had
from a peck to bushel in stock. some of
them being of fairly good quality. The
crop is poor in the main, however, which
brings prices down despite the shortage.
The best are offered at 10 cents a quart.
In the poultry department there was the
usual activity, though u hot weather has
had the effect of lessensg the demand for
meats of all kinds. Fun grown hens go at
A. and 30 cents each, while friers are in
fair demand at 40 and 50 cents a pair
There is not a large demand for fish of any
kind

YELLOW JOURNALISM.
How FaIschOOds Get Out and Make
Queer Beliefs.
From the New York Press.


From the New York Press
A word about the harm done by yell
low journalism. We at home cannot es-
innate 1t. But take a trip through the
country and talk with intelligent people
who cling to their county paper religious
ly-read it from end to end, digest it.,
swear by it. A yellow lie published in
this city is Immediately syndicated and
sent by mail or wire to nearly every paper
in the land, the price ranging anywhere
from 25 cents to 81 a column. Patent in
sides" also are shipped to country papers,
containing the same lie. Once started on
the grand rounds, this lie is never caught
up with. The hard-headed, slow thinking,
serious men of the provinces"-as they
would say in England-possibly never see
a correction.
travelling through the Middle West 1
have come upon some strange beliefs
among the people of small towns and
home newspapers. Out in Missouri ! met
men who are cocksure that John G. Car
lls.e appropriated 90 himself, while Secre>
tory Of the Treasury, $4,000. They even
name the day on which he took the money
and I know very we'll that at the time ne
was borrowing funds from friend in New
York TO meet his current family expenses.
In Kentucky / came across scores of SEN
sib,e Bluegrassers who think in their souls
that Grover Cleveland, President of the
United States, accepted Sl,000000 from j.
Pierpont Morgan as a return for giving
Morgan the bond contract. They read the
yellow lie in their home paper sent from
New York by a syndicate.

How wiIhelmina snubbed william.


Few really know why Queen Wilhelmina
so peremptorily refused to receive any
crowned heads or their representauv at
her coronation at Amsterdam last year.
During my STAG have been told the rea-
son on high authority.
1t seems that Wilhelmina, who has a
strong will Of her own, dislikes the En-
peror William very much, and a few
weeks prior to the coronation she receiv-
ed an autograph letter from him to the
effect that he intended grazing the corona
ton ceremony with his presence.
Queen Wilhelmina's answer to this was
a cleverly worded circular letter sent 90
every ambassador resident at The Hague,
stating that as the burden of the cere-
mony rested upon the shoulders Of two
women. she had decided to receive no
roval guests or official representatives Of
crowned heads. The Kaiser did not go
to Amsterdam.
The rumor that the charming young
Queen Is to be affianced to Prince Alex
ander of Teck Is rather smiled at here,
and the conviction Of her people Is firm
that Wnhelmina will never marry any man
she does not choose herself from affec-
ton.

rangement' Will ever have the slightest

During her short illness Michelangelo

He was kneelirg al her bedside when the
supreme moment came-supreme for both,
for she had ceased 70 live. and he. for
the first time during a devotion of more
than twenty years dared press his lips
to the brow OF the woman he idolized. All
the love of his life surged ABOUT his heart

arms about the bfeless body he showered

The departure of many families from
Savannah for the summer months and the
consequent desertion of their homes dur
Ing this period have left, as it.nerant va
grants and dependents upon the bounty of
others, a horde of hungry and homeless
feHnes, whose musical bewailngs of the
piteousness of their fate make night hid
eous and Rome howl
The early hours of the morning, when
the world is or ought and wants to be
asleep, are the favorite times for the as
sembling of these disturbers of repose.
They gather upon the chimney top and the
backyard fences of residences and COM
munc the one with the other upon the
nsfoTtunes that are theirs. They prowl
in and out of the houses of others than
their masters and owners in wauton dep
relation upon the contents of the family
larder. In melIinuous accents, strange and
weird they relate their woes and tell of
the tiinty hearted individuals who have
left them to the cruel charity of a hard.
hard world
Occasionally these matutlnal gatherings
are devoted to more tender purposes and
some brindle Tom, from the front elevation
oI a pIutOClallC manson, sings IN OulceI
tones the projections and charms of his
Maria. There are courts of love as well
as of damages, and in both tribunals the
camorous outbursts of plaintiffs and de-
iondants are heard at length.
1t may be surmised that householders
and residents generally contemplate this
state of affairs with no feeling of satisfac-
ton, but that on the contrary they en-
deavor by various ineffective methods to
express their strong disapproval. With
empty bottles and old shoes, with hair
brushes and bootjacks, with air rifles,
bricks and kindred or convenient missiles
they attempt to convey to the Toms and
Marias of the neighborhood, whose ac-
qualntance has sought them, that neither
their presence nor their music is longer
desired. These limitations, for a time
successful are of no permanent value as a
deterrent of the nightly serenades, and
with the coming of the next period when
homeless cats may be found and heard at
their accustomed haunts.
1t has been suggested, in the interest of
the permanent abatement of this nuisance.
that the city fathers impose a tax upon
Sals, as well as upon dogs, and that they
collect 1t monthly. 1t has been further
suggested that an official be created, with
large powers and wide discretion, whose
duty 1t shall be to gather in all felines not
oearlng the badge that signifies the pay
ment of the tax and shall lead them to
an lgnominious and immediate execution.
il Is certain that by no other method can
the plague of cats be fittingiy dealt with.
