Fruit and Vegetable Market.
New York, Dec. 83.—There is a continuous
good demand for anything in the line of new
vegetables from the south. Receipts are light,
and, in fact, not sufficient to establish quota
tions. We note a few arrivals of egg piants,
which are meeting with ready sale and at high
prices, being worth about $8 00&10 00 per bar
rel. Other vegetables will also command good
pi ices, as the demand is good at the present
time. Snap beans, peas, cutarabers, tomatoes,
etc., will do well to ship any time when ready.
The market also continues favorable on Florida
oranges, especially russets, receipts being light
and prices firm—sl 75jfc2 25 per box, the latter
for choice sound fruit of selected sizes. The
bulk of brights range at about $2 50 a box,
although anything strictly fancy, selected sizes,
sound fruit, will command $2 75. We note the
arrival of Mediterranean fruit, which will have
a tendency somewhat to weaken present prices.
Mandarins and Tangerines are in very heavy
supply and selling at about former range of
prices. Some concession in price is necessary
to effect any sale of Mandarins.
G. S. Palmer.
BOOK NOTICES.
The Despot of Broomsedoe Cave. By Charles
Egbert Craddock. Houghton Mifflin A Cos.,
publishers, ho-w York. WyllyACo., Savan
nah. Cloth, $1 25.
This is one of Charles Egbert Craddock’s
best Btories, and all of her stories are good.
It was published in the Atlantic Monthly
and attracted wide attention. The plot of
it is good and the portraiture of characters
is excellent. The scene of it is ftiid in the
Tennessee mountains and the characters are
mainly of that region. The story is wol'
worth reading. Those who read it will not
be disappointed.
MAGAZINES.
The Pansy for December is full of good
things, and will be found a delightful holi
day magazine by children. Its illustrations
are superb and its articles are written with
great care. D. Lothrop Company, Boston.
The American Magazine for December
presents a very attractive appearance. Its
table of contents is a very satisfactory one.
This magazine is being steadily improved,
and can hardly fail to grow in popular
favor. The American Magazine Publishing
Company, New York.
Outing, for January, has a groat variety
ot interesting articles. Those who are in
terested in sporting matters cannot afford
to miss it. But it has a great interest for
others than those who are seeking a maga
zine which deals with outdoor and indoor
sports. Its articles on travel are among the
best published. The present number is
suited to meet the wanU of a variety of
readers. Outing, 239 Fifth avenue, New
York.
The Political Science Quarterly, for De
cember, is a particularly good number. An
arrangement has been made by which the
Political Science Quarterly and The New
Princeton Review are consolidated. The
publishers of the Political Science Quar
terly, Ginn & Cos., have purchased The New
I-b-inceton Review, and the latter journal
will be merged into the former. The politi
cal and economic questions to which The
New Ib-inceton Review hss devoted so
much of its attention, and which aro en
grossing more and more the attention of
the public, will form, as heretofore, the
special field of the Political Science Quar
terly. Ginn & Company, 743 Broadway,
New York.
The Christmas Wide Awake is bright
and beautiful. “Goody Banta Claus,” by
Katharine Lee Bates, with its dozen jolly
pictures, is a regular fireside chronicle of
“Father Christmas” and his folks. Margaret
Sidney opens her now “Peppers” serial in
this number. Thiß story will run through
the year. J. T. Trowbridge in his serial,
“The Adventures of David Vane and David
Crane," opens the door upon a typical New
Eugland farmhouse family. Elizalieth
Stuart Phelps (Mrs. Herbert Ward) con
tributes one of her beet short stories, “The
Toddlethwaite Prize.” John Strange Win
ter, the author of “Booties’ Baby,’’ has a
good story with a sweet lesson, entitled
“Yum Yum, A Pug.” Mrs. (tenoral Fre
mont has a remarkable account, “How the
Good News Came Out of the Went,’’ Miss
Amanda B. Harris tells the touching story
of a captive eagle. Mr*. William Olaflln
gives the first of "Daisy's letters to Patty."
There Is a great deal of other interesting
matter In the number. D. Itothrop Com
pauy, Boston. ,
Tbs January MsUcUe opens the new year
mIL A magazine full oi the cream of the
THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, DECEMBER 31, 1888;
best foreign writing and thinking should
certainly have liberal public support. The
new number begins with an article by
Archibald Forbes ou “The Emperor Fred
erick’s Diary ” which is a graphic com
pendium of the career of a good and igrsat
man. The Blackwood story, by Mrs.
Olipbant, is another in her remarkable
"Little Pilgrim” senes, touching on the de
batable ground of future life. William
Morris, the Socialist poet, discusses the
revival of handicraft in industrial art and
manufacture with groat suggestiveness,
and shows how there lies herein one of the
means for the uplifting and improvement
of the lower classes, as well as a radical
change in artistic ideals and methods. Mr.
H. H. Johnson, one of the most oompatent
of African geographers and explorers,
brings his knowledge to bear on the vexed
question of "Where is Stanley?” in a way
which throws much light on its most prob
able solution. Sir R. S. Ball takes up
the subject of the great eruption at
Krakatoa, which has just been the subject
of a most exhaustive scientific report.
The Eclectic, 25 Bond street New York.
In the January St. Nicholas is published
the first of a series of illustrated ballads
announced in the prospectus. “The Pigmy
Fleet’’ is an amusing fanciful story in
verse, excellently told by Mr. Tudor Jenks.
The serial, “The Bells of Ste. Anne,” by
Mrs. Catherwood, grows rapidly in inter
est; and Mrs. Burnett finishes “Little Saint
Elizabeth.” A continued story for little
folk on a novel plan is called “The Bunny
Stories,” and is written by Mr. John 11.
Jewett, and excellently illustrated by Cul
mer Barnes. Mrs. Lucy U. Paine tells
how the daughter of a fisher
man of Scbeveningen won a “Golden
Casque” from the King of Holland
by beating him in a race—a delightful
story. Blanche Willis Howard contributes
a breezy and invigorating song called “The
Popular Poplar Tree,” which is illustrated
by Katharine Pyle. James Whitcomb Kiley
sends a stanza about “Naughty Claude.”
Eudora S. Bumstead writes a Christinas
tree prologue in rhyme, for which there are
several pictures by A. B. Davies, and there
are “Aztec Fragments” by Francis, a
“Menu” by Margaret Johnson. Altogether,
it is a number which will certainly stand
well with its predecessors. The Century
Company, Union square, New York city.
The Forum for January has an exhaus
tive discussion by Senator Morriil of Ver
mont, of the subject which Mr. Butter
worth’s rosolution in congress has made up
permost—the annexation of Canada. Sen
ator Morrill regards political union as
inevitable, but ho does not think it ought to
be sought by us. Apropos of the Sackville-
West incident, President James B. Angell
has an historical review of the re
calling and dismissing of ministers of our
government and by it. James Parton writes
of “Defeated Presidential Candidates,”
making a review of the most notable presi
dential campaigns since Henry Clay was
first a candidate. Leonard Woolsey Bacon
takes the politicians of both parties severely
to task* for pension legislation past and
prospective in an article which he calls “A
Raid upon the Treasury.” He undertakes
to show that our war taxes are likely to be
as burdensome as those of European na
tions, where “every workingman carries a
soldier strapped to his back.” Other essays
are by James Pavn, the English novelist;
by Andrew D. White on “The Need of An
other Universityby Edward Atkinson,
by George B. Cowlam on “.Southern In
dustrial Development” mid by Senator
Dawes. The Forum Publishing Company,
253 Fifth avenue, New York.
The Magazine of American History
opens its twenty-first volume with a strong
January number. The leading article,
“Historic Homes and Landmarks,” by the
editor, is an animated, informing, and ex
ceedingly timely account of the romantic
scenes and stirring events which made the
whole “West End” portion of New York
city historic ground. This paper, which is
styled “Chapter I,” is confined chiefly to
Washington Heights and its associations,
and is richly illustrated from recent ph ,to
graphs by Miss Catharine Weed Barnes,
showing the present condition of the
antique homes, relics, and plaeesof interost.
The frontispiece, a superb portrait of Gen.
Nathaniel Greene, from one of Dr. Emmet’s
rare English engravings, is peculiarly ap
propriate to Mrs. latub's vivid description
of the battle on these heights, as he com
manded the vanguard of Washington’s
forces on that occasion. Following, Dr.
Prosper Bender writes with much spirit
and cleverness on “Winters in Quebec;”
Gen. C. M. Wilcox discusses “The Mecklen
burg Declaration of Independence” in a
masterly fashion. There are also short con
tributions of much interest from Hon.
Charles Johnson McCurdy, Hon. Charles
S. Hall, John Schuyler and Tneodore Stan
ton of Paris. Magazine of American His
tory, 743 Broadway, New York.
The frontispiece of the January Century
is Cole’s engraving of the head of Christ, by
Giotto. Besides this engraving, in The
Century series of Old Italian Masters,
there are four other large engravings by
Mr. Colo, from Giotto, with articles by Mr.
Stillman and Mr. Cole himelf. The long
announced articles by Mr. Charles DeKay,
on Ireland, begin in this number, the
first being entitled “Pagan ‘lreland,”
with illustrations of the mediaeval
castle at Clonmicnois, the Cross at
Monasterboice, the round tower of Ard
more, etc. The Lincoln Life in this num
ber, deals with three commanding events,
Pope’s Virginia campaign, the battle of
Antjetaiu, and the announcement of eman
cipation. An illustrated article on “The
West Point of the Confederacy” gives an
account of a battle the details of which are
little known in t..e north. The stories of
the number are the continuation of Mrs.
Cathenvood’s "Romance of Dullard,” and
of Mr. Cable’s “Strange True Stories of
Louisiana;” also “A Perverted Franchise,”
by A. C. Gordon, illustrated by Kemble,
and “An Old Man from tho Old Country,”
also illustrated by Kemble. Mr. Kennan,
in au article entitled “The Life of Admin
istrative Exiles,” presents some ot the most
astounding facts gathered by him in Li
beria. “Open I.utters" deal with "Law
yers’ Morals,” the “Life of Lincoln,” and
‘‘The Mother’s Right.” The Century Com
pany, Union Square, New York city.
In his historical drama, “Commodus,” in
Harper's Magazine for January, Gen.
Lew Wallace has made a permanent addi
tion to our literature. J. R. Weguelin in -
terprets the leading situations in his sym
pathetic drawings. “Commodus” does not
monopolize, however, the interest of this
number of Harper's. Many will turn at
once to “The O.ergy and the Times,” by
Archdeacon Ma kav-Hmith, and "Manu
facturing Industry in Ireland,'’ by Mr.
Commissioner Mac Carthy, Dublin- b th
important contributions to current discus
sions. Mention must tie made of the
sustained interest in “Isaliel’s .Story,”
by Annie Porter, and of the
f remising first installment of Constance
'enimore Wool son’s “Jupiter Lights;” of
the exquisite workmanship in the “Ballad
of the Bird-bride,” by Graham R. Tomson,
and of the delicate communion with tho
poet’s spirit shown in the accompanying
illustrations by F. 8. Church. H. P. Wells
writes ou “The Beaver,” Clarence Cook on
“Russian Bronzes,” W. W. Thomas, Jr., ou
"The Ancient City of Wisby," and F. C.
Beach, Ph.B., ex-president of tho Society
of Amateur Photographers, New York city,
on “Modern Amateur Photography.” All
four articles are fully illustrated. Prof.
A. 8. Hill of Harvard has a capital essay
ou “Colloquial English,” and Char leu
Dudley Warner oontinuaa his studies of the

SOME FAMOUS CROOKS.
HOW AND WHERE THEY ARE NOW
EMPLOYED.
Most of Them are in Bad Luck—
“ Kid" Miller Is Working Park Place
—Harry Ashton, Author of the Stael
Engraving Trick, a Total Wreck.
New York, Dec. 29.-rAt present the
crooks of New York are under a cloud.
What with Inspectors Byrnes and Williams
and Superintendent Murray at Police
Headquarters, and a dozen police captains
in as many precincts, the average crook is
having a very hard time. Nearly all his
old haunts are closed, or else are under po
lice surveillance. The middlemen who
charged and collected “protection money”
have boen driven out of business, and even
the landlords who gave him convenient
offices and received and delivered his mail
under absolute secrecy, are now afraid to
have any further relations with him.
EDWARD MEREDITH.
Yet all of them seom to have learned no
wisdom from the past, nor to have been
affected by the fifty friends, who, thanks to
Anthony Comstock, the state and fedoral
courts, have paid the penalty of their mis
deeds by incarceration in jail, prison and
penitentiary. “Hungry Joe” in Sing Sing;
“Cigarette” Harry in Buffalo; “Doc”
Smythe in Ludlow street jail; Martiu and
“Sheeny” Doc in Movamensing; Arthur and
Johnson in Joliet ;“Sig” Hess, Frank Webb,
“Sheeny” Sam and “Black" Ed. in the
Tombs, far from exciting a depressing in
fluence upon the crowd, seem to nave pro
duced the fooling that law was a farce, and
judicial punishment a laughable failure.
All, or at least all who are not in the law’s
clans, are hard at work as ever before.
"Kid" Miller is now using Park Place as
his lair. The demolition of French’s hotel,
and tae orectiou of the new Times build
ing transferred a number of saloons and res
taurants to that thoroughfare and made it a
favorite avenue for country visitors and
sight-sears. Before this he made the Park
Row sidewalk in front of Dr. Perry’s phar
macy liis coign of vantage. Tho doctor, a
famous New York wit, said: “I have a
groat many country customers, and I was
shocked to see him or his pal accost them
in the regular way of bunco business. I
didn’t wait to complain to the police, but
went direct to Millor himself. Imagine my
surprise and amusement when he said:
‘Pardon me, doctor; I forgot that you were
working this street in the pharmaceutical
line. As you bavo come to s 1 ay, there’s no
room for artists of my persuasion, and I’ll
get anew beat to-day.’ He kept his word,
and hasn’t boon in" front of my drug store
since.” Miller is still disfigured from the
terrible beating ho received a year ago, and
will never again be the handsome and debon
air youth he was when ho made Madison
square his field of action.
HENRY ASHTON.
Harry Ashton, who has “collared” at
least $.>00,000 in his long criminal career, is
now a wreck of the opium habit. He con
tracted it six years ago when the joints
were in full blast aid when it was a fash
ionable fad to “hit the pipe.” He hardly
deserves (he title of crook, as he is so ruined
physically and mentally that lie depends
upon short cards, “flim-flamming” and
other tricks which are deipised by legiti
mate crooks, for a living. He made one
great stroke years ago which retted him a
more than handsome amount. He adver
tised in more than 500 papers the following
card:
"To Art Lovers.
“Ilainmerstein, Ganzen, Miller & Cos., the
leading art importers and dealers, of New
York city, having failed, the undersigned,
their assignee, will sell their stock at 25
cents ou the dollar. Elegant steel-engraved
portraits of Washington, Jefferson, Adams,
StoDroo, Jackson, Lincoln, Hherman, Hayes.
Garfield and Cleveland at 50 cents apiece, 5
for $2, and 10 for $3 50. Original cost of
engravings SIOO,OOO. On exhibition from
9 o’clock n.m. to 10 o’clock p. m. Please
call and see. Will send by mail on receipt
of money, postal order or stamps.”
The advertisements were printed in papers
of the south, west aid Pacific slope.
Everyone wished such a bargain, and duly
remitted. He sent the elegant steel engrav
ings, but they were simply clean postage
stamps on which were the heads desired.
“Cigarette" Harry, whose other alias is
Harry Desmond, and who belongs to a very
good family in Hro klyu, has ju*t been re
leased from the Buffalo state prison, aid
bangs out in the lowest dives of toe Sixth
ward. At one time he was a shrewd and
successful dealer in “green goods” and “saw
dust,” but dropped the business when Tom
Davis, the great operator in that field, was
shot and killed by a would-be Texan victim.
Afterward he fell lower and lower, and
finally joined the It lian society, the
“Alafla,” and “shoved the queer." He was
caught at this by Inspector Drummond,
ami tried and convicted in the United
Htatos court Prison-life and dissiiiatton
have undermined his constitution, ad be
will scarcely ever pass again os a leader of
the crooks.
“Easy Archie" is a tall and elegant young
man, whose specialty 'a getting into good
society and soiling bogus precious stones to
susceptible women of wealth. He has dun •
business in more than a hundred cities, and
has never netied less than S.VJO from each
victim. Most of these are too ashamed to
make complaint against lam t > the police,
and keep the secret of their loss looked u p
ill Ul.ir own bosoms. A few, however,
have stifled pride an i taken out warrants
against huu, rarticulariy In Detroit, Cleve
land, Poughkeepsie, Hartford, itangof,
Rome ami Buffalo. At be urns a different
alias la each plnoe he visits, be lias little or
no fear <f ev ,-r bri'ig apt neb tide I, He is a
band outs young fe’low of about 98, Wltb
blonde hair and slight mustache, blue eyes,
food complexion aud features, tall, sleuder
uild, slightly stooping, well-dressed, and
fine mannered. At present he hangs
around Parker’s restaurant, on Mixth ave
nue, and is an object of admiration to the
many dudes and fashionable counterjump
ers who frequent that famous hotel.
Lew Martin, who is one of the most in
geuious and the least objectionable of the
New York crooks, is thriving as he has done
for at least ten years. His specialty is
fleecing susceptible men who sympathize
with young ladies who advertise their woes.
One summer he spent in Poughkeensie, hav
ing advertised in one of the New York dai
lies the following appeal under the head of
personal:
A YOUNG I.ADY of great beauty and refine
ment, but no means, desires to go upon the
stage. Vassar graduate? Will some gentleman
assist her in her trouble. Address X. Po'k'psie.
and in another daily, this piteous apDeal:
A BEAUTIFUL WIDOW, not yet 20, desires
a loan of s.'<oo upon her household furniture,
which coat $3,000, m order to atari a summer
boarding house. Only refined gentlemen need
apply.
Each notice brought in a bushel of re
sponses, and nearly every writer sent not
less than $lO by mail to Poughkeepsie to
bring the graduate or the fair widow to
New York city. He claims and though a
crook, he is rather truthful than otherwise,
that the sweet girl graduate netted s4ooand
the widow $385. The last two years Mar
tin has earned his bread aud butter by all
sorts cf applications iu the “personals” of
the daily press purporting to come from
women wanting husbands, backers, finan
ciers, brokers and bankers. He shows con
siderable ingenuity in hji work, giving his
address as Philadelphia or some oi her city
to New Yorkers and as New York to those
who write him from out of town. From
the “girlv-girl racket," as he terms hi* ridic
ulous trade, he has cleared never less than
$2,000 a year, and it seems far more profita
ble to day than ever bofore.
John Moran, who must not be confounded
with the charming poet of tho same name,
hangs out in tho sportiug resorts around
tho Hoffman house. He conflnos his opera
tions to ignorant foreigners who have
amassed a small fortune in trade and wish
to invest their money in boud and mort
gage or iu real estate. Hois quick In de
termining the gullibility of a victim, has
enough assurance to sell the New York
City Hall to some grocer, butcher or cob
bler, who was not over inquisitive. His
favorite field is Queens, Westchester aud
Richmond counties. Here he probably has
sold or mortgaged more than SIOO,OOO worth
of real property aud is still disposing of
imaginary town-lots aud fertile farms. He
has served only one sentence, and that on
Blackwell’s island.

Joseph K. Brown Coonlng a Pole.
From the Abbeville ( Oa .) Timet.
A few days ago we met with a gentleman
who used to live near the Joe Brown place
in Dooly county, but moved from this stale
fourteen years ago to Florida. Among
many things that ho talked about was au
incident which ho related concerning Hon.
J. E. Browu, who was spending some time
at his place, where the thriving town of
Cordele is now located. Mr. Brown
wanted to visit a place some
where north of Gum creek. When
ho reached the bridge, a part of it on
the opposite side was gone, except some
poles. He decided that the creek was too
full and that ho would get a wetting if he
attempted to ride across. So he ordered
his driver to go across in his carriage and
ho would try the bridge. He got along
well enough until ho got to the poles which
slanted off to the dry ground. Here he had
to get down and coon it, and after some
faithful clawing he landed safely.

When You Need
An Alterative Medicine, don’t forget
that everything depends on the kind
used. Ask for Ayer’s Sarsaparilla aud
take no other. For over forty years this
preparation has had the endorsement of
, leading physicians and druggists, and
it has achieved a success unparalleled
in the history of proprietary medicines.
“For a rash, from which I had suf
fered some mouths, my father, an M. D.,
recommended Ayer's Sarsaparilla. It
effected a cure. I am still taking this
medicine,' as I find it to be a most pow
erful blood-purifier.” —J. E. Cocke,
Denton, Texas.
“C. H. Hut, Druggist, Evansville,
Ind., writes: “ I have been selling
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla for many years. It
maintains its popularity, while many
other preparations, formerly as well
known, have long been forgotten.”
“ I have always recommended Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla as superior to any other
preparation for purifying the blood.”
