apples has been very disappointing.
1T is just here that the cotton sit

Idaho and other states where apples
are grown, the orchardists found they

now are beginning to realize that the

WONDERFUL HOW RESlN0L

The soothing, healing medication in
resinol ointment and resinol soap pen
etrates the tiny pores of the skin,
clears them of impurities. and stops
itching instantly. Resinol positively
and speedily heals eczema, heat-rash,
ringworm, and similar eruptions. and
clears away disfiguring pimples and
blackheads, when other treatments
have been almost useless.
Resinol is not an experiment. 1t Is
a doctors prescription which proved
so wonderfully successful for skin
troubles that it has been used by other
doctors all over the country for TWEEN
ty years. Every druggist sells resinol
ointment and resinol soap.-Adv.

WILL AGAIN TRY TO
SELL CITY BONDS
City Treasurer Will Receive
Bids on Bond Issue About the
First of October.

Conditions in the financial market
are improving to such an extent that
1T appears to be the matter of but a
short time when City Treasurer James
A. Rhodes will again endeavor to OBJ
tain bids on street improvement and
park bonds. Mr. Rhodes is pleased
with the result of the :ounty's bond
sale few days ago and also with the
statements since made to him by a bond
broker from New York The broker
informed the official that the market
was improving almost daily and that
the bids rendered at the county sale
proved that conditions are far better
than they were some weeks ago when
the city first tried in vain to pet bids.
1t is necessary for the city to sell
$l38,000 worth of street improvement
bonds and $4,000 worth of park bonds
just as soon as it can be done. The
sales were originally scheduled for
about September l. The street i'm
provement work has been done and
park land, situated in the northern part
of the city, has been purchased with
money borrowed for the purpose.
Present indications are that the city
treasurer will advertise third time for
bids on the bonds in question to be re-
ceived about October l.

FINDS DEAD MAN
UNDER R. R. SPAN
Believed to be James Ruddy-
Mystery as to How He Met
His Death.
FEW MARKS OF INJURIES
Was Found by Draw Captain
and Operator at East Rah-
way Last Night.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
Woodbridge, Sept. 25:-The body
of man believed to be James Ruddy
was found under the Central railroad
trestle at East Railway last night at
10 o'clock by August voorhees,, the
draw captain, and Charles Jeln, an
operator. The man, who apparently
had resided in West Hoboken, was
evidently on his way to Hazlet to
procure work, and the manner in
which he met his death seems to be
a mystery.
The body bore few marks of out
ward injuries, but internal injuries
resulted in his death, according to
Coroner R. A. Hirner. In the mans
pocket was found ticket on the Cen
trail railroad from New York to
Hazlet, leading the coroner to be-
lieve that Ruddy had either fallen off
the train or had been struck by the
train when walking along the
tracks. A suit case belonging to the
accident victim had been cut in
pieces.
The mans identity was established
through numerous papers found in
his pockets. One was certificate of
employment issude by S. Berger, of
the United States Employment
Agency, of 72 Greenwich street, New
York, giving the man work with ia
cob Wycoff, of Hazlet.. There were
several letters of recommendation
one being signed by Brother Gabriel,
of st. Michaels monastery, West Ho-
boken. A letter bearing the name of
the Schwartz Club, 375 Spring street,
West Hoboken, and addressed to
William Dunphy, of 130 14th street,
Hoboken, was also found
One solution of the manner in
which Ruddy met his death may be
that when the train stopped he
thought he was at his destination
and that he was walking toward
Perth Amboy when he was struck by
the train.

ten feet away from the body were par
cells that had been obtained at Paw
lovsky Bros. market and at Graham Is
bakery in this city.
Two fve-cent pieces were found in
the pocket of the man, who weighed
about 16O pounds. The local police are
this afternoon trying to ascertain the

CITY'S MOTOR APPARATUS
ANSWERS FIRST ALARM

The city's new motor drawn fire
apparatus was turned over to MoClel-
Ian Engine Company yesterday and it
was taken out for the first time to
answer an alarm last night. A call be-
lieved to have been a false alarm, was
sent in from box No. 60, at W shington
street and Park AvenTe, shortly before
midnight. The police investigated and
were unable to @scertain who turned il
the alarm, or why it was sounded.
The new motor fire apparatus is now
in use in the Mcclellan frehouse in
State street. 1t will be equipped with
an improved self-starting system within
the next few days. In order to ac-
quaint the drivers with every detail of
the machine, Chairman John Kelly, of
the fire committee, has ordered the ap-
paratus out at the sound of eight and
ten o'clock day taps, mornings and
evenings. Later on the apparatus will
not be driven out of the house as the
time taps are sounded, but the drivers
will be required to start up the engine
and keep it running for about five min
utes to demonstrate its fitness.
