A Days Marketing Bought for Only
Ton Cents.
Ten cents Is a small fund with which
to do a days marketing for family
OF three, but there are families on the
cast side who make q dime purchase
food enough for twenty-four hours.
Friday is market day on the east side,
and II you want to see marketing that
is marketing, with keen competition
and close dealing, with the cent as a
measure OF value, go on that day into
the Essex and Hester streets district
the most populous In the world
where small shops abound and push
cart peddlers congregate, and you will
see q sight to be witnessed at no other
place on earth. l went with q Rlving-
ton street housekeeper into an Essex
street butcher shop,and saw her spend
at least five minutes in purchasing half
o pound OF corned beef, for which she
paid 4 cents. It was good, full weight,
and she insisted that bit Of meat no
larger than the nickel she handed the
butcher should be put on the scale
after it was down. She was market
ing for Sunday for her family OF three
persons. Corned beef hash was evil
IDENTIFY In her mind, for she went to a
cart in the street and bought a pound
Of potatoes, for which she paid one
cent, and had most desperate argu-
ment as to the size Of the last one, put
on the scale for good weight. She had
her way, and the dealer said something
about "a woman" She mad spent half
Of her ten cents, and next purchased
from q sidewalk stand one pound OF
black bread, cut from loaf that
weighed about ten pounds, and paid
two cents for It. Then she went to
another cart and bought half pound
OF white beans for cent, and three
quarters Of a pound Of cornmeal for
another cent. She had one cent left,
and that went for four somewhat an
cient looking tomatoes. Her dime was
gone, and she disappeared in the
throng with her purchases and thread

The war that has been going on between the
New Amsterdam Gas Company and the Con-
solidated Gas Company for the patronage OF
the tenement house at 1913 and l25 ludlow
street came tn head yesterday morning.
The New Amsterdam Company had been sup
plying light to the thirty-six Hebrew families
in the house at the rate Of 80 cents per 1000
feet. On Friday they published a statement
that alter Dec. l the price would be In
creased TO S1.10. II was then that the
Consolidated Company saw chance. and
employees armed with meters we're immed-
lately sent to convince the tenants that II would

Consolidated meters were put IN and matters
ran along smoothly until yesterday morning
when the Amsterdam men found the employees
OF the rival company already In possession. A

MRS BIsHops pooDsHED TRIMMED.
Her SeiEhbor Wanted Six Inche. of Land
to Make HI. House lit His Lot.

Mrs. Elizabeth Bishop Of s26 Bloomfield
street, Hoboken came to this city on Saturday
to do some shopping and did not return until
late in the evening When she got up on Sun
day morning she noticed from window that
her woodshed. which stands In the back Of ths
yard. did not look as broad as usual Upon in
vestigatinR she discovered that six inches OF
the shed on the side next to the property Of her
neighbor Frederick Martin. Of N2i Bloomfield
street. had been chopped off and the fence
between the two lots had been moved over six
inches. Mrs. Bishop called on Mr. Martin for
an explanation. He informed her that he had
found that his yard was six inches narrower
than his house and assorted that he had taken
only what belonged TO him. Mrs. bishop
ordered Mr.. Martin to put the fence back where
u formerly was and 10 restore III" SIX inches
that he had torn of the woodshrd. This Mr.
Martin refused TO do. Mrs Bishop declared
that she woul consult a lawyer at once More
than that, she said, she would build n spite
fence and paint II nlack so that II would shut
out the light from Mr. Mart Ms windows
Mr.. Martin first got tho notion that his yard
was too narrow several weeks ago when ha
began to build new woodshrd. he yard was
measured by his two sons. who are Stulcnts at
Stevens institute. He then asked Mrs, Bishop
and Henry Norrath. his other immediate neigh
40 that he could get the ak inches which he
said belonged to him. Mr. Vorrath fatty re-
fused TO consent 10 such proposition. and 80
did Mira Bishop. unless It should he proved in
court that they occupied property which did
not belong to them.
