POTATO MARKET OPENS.
Fred :Manke Takes in 80 Wagonloads
of Good Quality Ohios and.
Cobblers in Three DAVIS.


of Good Quality Ohios and.
Cobblers in Three Days: ..
Fred Manke was. the first buyer to
open his potato warehouse in Prince
ton. He commenced buying on Mon
day and has already taken in over 80
wagonloads of Ohios and Cobblers.
Charley Weeks, for George E. Rice
& Co., of Foley, began buying yester-
day. A dollar and half per hundred
weight is being paid by the ware
houscmen.
While Ohios are Of fairly good size
and are ripe, some of them arc knob
by, but Mr. Manke says that the quail
ty is good-much better than was ex-
pected, and, that: the: knobbiness is not
much worse than in average years for
this variety of potato.
Cobblers brought in are, on the
whole, of very good quality, and
those which come in later will be still
better.

The figure of an ease-loving, prosaic,

play by Walter Hackett, starring
Charles Hawtrey, at the Criterion Thea

bear, oaths, pistols, swaggers, pigtail
and all. number Of amusing situa-
: tons arise from the contrast between
the prosaic, timid usualness of the
modern descendant and the romantic
spirit of the pirate. When the crew
mutlnies he calmly cuts decks of cards
with his fellow corsairs for the vos-
session Of the ship, invariably cuttir~
aces, as his pack contains nothing else.
Later in the drama he is beset By
burglars, who have had the foresight
to cut the wires leading to the house:
a sudden ringing disconcerts them,
whereupon the hero produces the "tele-

his pocket. The play received much
applause, and there were calls for Mr..
Hawtrey and the author.
