MARKET DAY
PASSES OF F
SUCCESSFULLY
More Farmers Than Before Were
In This City Today and Sold
Both Wholesale and Retail.
PROBLEM WORKING OUT
Produce Dealers Buy Many Of
the Loads Outright and
Others Sell at Retail.

A larger crowd than on Tuesday
patronized the local market this
morning and before 10 o'clock most
of the farmers were sold out. 1t Is
estimated that between 1000 and
1900 people visited the place and
bought fresh produce.
The farmers were on hand early
and James O'Brien, who was on duty
in the employ of the Board of Trade
as a special officer, made them back
up against the curb. The confusion
which was in evidence on the OPEN
ing day was almost eliminated this
morning and it was clearly proven
that the people appreciate the mar
ket and are taking advantage Of
fresh truck at bottom prices. Before
o'clock little was sold either at
wholesale or retail. but afterward
the sales were large.
One of the farmers said that he
was well satisfied with his sales and
that he had disposed of his entire lot
at wholesale to one man. Others
who sold at retail said they were sat
isfied with their profits.
There were nearly seventy-fiye far
mers' wagons In the market before

number on the opening day by far.
v. p Christofferson, Louis Kreiels-
heimer and Frank Hilsdorf, the
Board of Trade committee, were on
hand early and helped keep things in
order.
Mr.. Christofferson said that he
had detected several spectators and
one was routed by Officer O'Brien
The dealer vowed vengeance and
started for lawyer.
A well known local produce man
said that most OF the local dealers
/ lpe.ronized the market this morning
and that some dissension was caused
lby a number Of young fellows who
threatened to start a petition re.
questing the public not to buy from
the local produce men.
Mayor Bollschweiler and Street
Commissioner Adair were present
during market hours and both
agreed that fountain was needed
so that the farmers horses could be
watered An effort will be made to
have one established. Besides Of
ficer O'Brien, the police were on du-
ty and assisted In keeping the street
from being blocked.
The next market day will be Tues
day and even larger number of
farmers than today are expected to
be present Tonight a committee of
( produce men and from the Board Of
Trade will meet with the Board of
Aldermen in committee session to
ask them to take charge of the mar
ket and also to make rules and regu-
lations to govern it,

Trenton, Aug. 14:-J Frank Cor
dova, the unfrocked Methodist min
lister who deserted his wife and chill
dren at South River for pretty Julia
Bovine, the choir girl and his "affin-
tty," completed his four years SEN
tence in state prison at midnight last
night. He left the prison at o'clock
this morning accompanied by Rev.
Charles S. Kimble, of Plainfield, who
was graduated with Cordova at Drew
Theological Seminary. Cordova was
also accompanied by few newspap-
er men.
He left HIS cell at the early hour
In order to avoid notoriety. He walk
ed to the quarters of the Trenton
Press Club where he spent the early
hours OF the morning and was given
breakfast shortly after o'clock. To-
day he was hustled into an automo-
bile and driven to Princeton Junction
where he took train for Philadel-
phia where he will seek employment.
Cordova was disinclined to talk
about himself, but finally made this
statement:
Il think that after having paid the
penalty that was imposed on me !
should be allowed the chance to rise
from derefundis where I was and be-
gin life all over again and to do q
mans work in life. One of the
things which has been a source OF
continual distress to me las been the
e uninterrupted unkind criticism of the
press. One of the several things ]
have learned during my intense
agony has been to be forgiying, so
forgive my critics. Having been sc
misjudged myself | hesitate to mis-.
Judge others. All / ask for is q
chance to rise and measure up to the
,asuA standard of man"
It was learned today from Rev. DR.
J. Ward Gamble, a close friend oi
Cordova, that he will reside in Sc
clusion in New York or Philadelphia
until he gets money to take him to
the City of Mexico where he will
make his future home.
Cordova's father is a major In the
Mexican Army and he has a brother
there who is said to be wealthy.
Friends who saw Cordova in pris-
on last night say that Miss Bovine
and their child will join the deposed
preacher in Mexico later. Those who
nave seen OOIuOfd say IudJ ne never
admits that he has done wrong. He
never refers to Mrs. Cordova as his
wife, but speaks of her as that wo.
man who got me into prison"
Cordova's Imprisonment was on 6
charge of abandonment and assault
and battery preferred by his wife
After Cordova had deserted his fam.
lily he claimed that his wife was as
much responsible as he was for the
differences between them. He says
there was no affinity between them
that his love for Julia Bovine devel-
oped and that brought about the
whole situation.
Cordova himself would not make
the slightest reference to Miss
Bovine or her child, of which he il
the father. He claimed he did not
know her address and said he had
not had any communication with heI
since being in prison. Miss BOVINE
lives in Asbury Park with her par
ents.

for a dip in the bay. The tide being
low they had to walk considerable
distance out before they found deep
water. None Of the party could
swim.
Not knowing that the channel

Princes Bay, and Jacob Mesbath, of
Wood avenue this place, succeeded in
getting both Of the girls in the boat.
Browne was saved by Wilbur Leigh
of Princes Bay. Both OF the girls
were unconscious when they were
brought to the shore. Miss O'Connell
recovered, but Miss Dunno, who was
worked over for some time could not
be brought too
Coroner Matthew Cahill, New
Brighton, was notified and gave per.
mission to l. P. Bedell & Son to re-
move the body. 1t was brought to
Bedell's morgue In Main street last
night where It will be prepared for
burial. Miss O'Connell was taken to
the boarding house of Mrs. Turner
but last night was to i'll to give any
correct account of the accident.
Mr.. Browne left for his home last
night. Lieutenant Haerle with the
reserves of the 99th precinct was
soon at the beach, and took charge
Of the body until word was received
from the coroner, and to keep the
crowd back as there were fully SOC
DeoDIe on fha beach shortly after fhe
accident, most Of them coming from
the S. s. White Dental Works that
had just closed down for the day.

Fads and Fashions.

New York, May Afternoon cos
tunes and wraps for driving are now
shown in delightful models and in
great numbers too. The automobile
pleasure rides are no more taken by
the really fashionable folk as they
have gone back to the horse and
consequently the costumes for driving
are taking the place of those for
autoing. These toilettes are of course
much smarter and more elaborate
than the motoring garments. There
are many coat and skirt suits, some
times braided with soutache and with
a fancy cest or such trimming as may
be omitted The light wraps are
made in Umpire or Mikado styles
mostly. Rough Shantung in artistic
shades il the popular material used
The hats worn are simple shapes in
chips, rough straws and wide and
N4i-s~e~ sprlIts gowns ARE SHOWING
white lace yokes of whatever depfh
the gown requires. Foulards and tat.
fetas have lace guimpes and the lin.
gerie dress is charming with deep
lace yoke, cut pointed almost to the
waistline. The lingerie blouse is
usually made with short sleeves and
this season the daintiest sleeves are
made of two or three frills of lace
one falling over the other. LaQes
are very expensive and some new
brand is brought out each week right
from the lace makers. They are
wonderful in designing and in the
different weaves. One of the novelties
combines fine and coarse lace into
an exquisite pattern which looks, ex-
cept to the expert. like delicate
rose paint application on heavy |
