HOUSEHOLD JOYS IN FLORAL BOWERS
A Week of I'abrokea Festivities la
: Which Yoath i Ac Heartily
la I to Sosae Detail of
Puilt,
j. jr. For alx daya every year Aabury Park, N.
' J., becomes a full fl-vlged monarohy. The
democratic spirit which 1 found there d ur
ine the other SM daya disappears aa
If by magic, and tha oily revels
In all the pomp and ceremony by
which royalty la aurrounded. Tha robe of
simplicity and liberty Is hidden under the
rich folda of a regal mantle. The mayor
and hla staff and all high officials duff their
badges of authority and pass the rule of the
city over to the dainty little sovereign
whoa power la absolute, whoa slightest
wish la aa a law unto the citizen of An
bury Park tor tha alx carnival daya of her
reign.
Her majesty la Tltanla, Queen of the
Fairies, In whose honor many festivals are
riven, tha climax of which la the great
baby pared. Aabury Park'a unique pa
geant, wliioh waa Inaugurated fifteen years
ago and alnca then has grown1 out of all
semblance to the simple , Uttle procession
of bablaa la perambulators inaugurated by
"Founder1' Bradley. About four yeara ago
lb first Tltanla waa chosen and enthroned
to rrrlew the parade of Infanta aa they
Wt wheeled by the royal box erected on
the boardwalk. Now Tltanla' visit has
been lengthened year by year until It covera
practically a whole week, every minute of
which la filled with festivities preparod In
her honor.
To be chosen Queen 6 the baby parade
carnival is the greatest compliment the
City of Aabury Park can confer upon any
Individual. , tt 1 not aa honor lightly
bestowed. On the contrary, the crown la
proffered only after long and nerloua con
sideration of the qualifications of the many
candidates for the exalted position. Her
majesty la always a resident or a summer
vlaltur to the shore resort, and she Is in
variably the prettiest bit of femininity to
be found there during the gay season. For.
weeks prevloua to tha date set for the
annual festivities, the Queen oommlttee
studies features, pose and beating of all
the young gtrla who attend the dances and
aoolal function In Aabury Park, for it la
there that the future aoverelgn Is most
likely to be discovered. One year she Is an
exquisite blond, another she la of the
opposite 'type. Variety of beauty is liked
by those who have charge of the selection,
and this give all of the prettiest girls a
chance to occupy a throne for one week
at least.
Tltanla, ruler for 1906, is a atrlklngly
beautiful girl, with dark eyea and hair,
rather petite, perhaps to meet the popular
Idea of royalty, but with all the daintiness
and loveliness supposed to be possessed by
wearers of Jewelled crt.wns. Miss Clara
Belle Logan, of Brooklyn, la this year's
ruler of the baby parade' carnival. She is
Just 0 years of age and has spent
all hr summer in Abury Park, where
her parents own me of the handsomest
cottages in the resort
Authority of the Queen.
- While choosing the flueen is the moat Im
portant feature of the preliminaries to the
baby parade carnival arrangements; It is
by 00 means all that the committee are
called upon to do. There are maid of
honor, courtier, page, flower girl and
officers to be Included in the royal party,
which I entertained by the pity, and each
participant must be a summer visitor who
Is to remain In Asbury Park during the
festivities and who will appear in official
capacity at each of the aerie of functions
arranged for the children' festival. This
year there are to be ten maid of honor.
Princess Cinderella, Prince Charming, lord
high chamberlain, court Jester and a host
of minor subjects, who will accompany the
queen whenever she makes her royal ap
pearance In public.
In order ' to eliminate Jealousy, which
might spring up In the hearts of young
girl visitors, the maids who wait upon Tl
tanla are selected from the largest hotels,
tha Individual choice of the royal represen
tative resting with the master of cere
monies of each hostelry.
' When Queen Tltanla makes her entrance
Into the elty of Asbury Park her approach
will be proclaimed by heralds and trum
peters, clad In velvet and gold and mounted
upon prancing chargers, who will ride- up
and down the ahore announcing the glad
tidings. The royal court will ba established
at Coleman Caatie, whlqli will be gaily
decorated In her honer throughout the en
tire fete week. Here ahe will hold sway.
setting forth each day and night for the
royal functlona In a golden coach ahaped
Ilk a hug ahell, lined with delicate vel
vet, and drawn by alx white horsea In
golden trapping. She will have outrldera
aA a uniformed guard to protect her from
mlahapa whenever her majesty appeara in
publlo.
Tha first entertainment of the carnival
will be the coronation, at which the golden
crown of the fairies will be placed upon
the head of the youthful queen by the arch
bishop, tha royal accepter put Into her slen
der hand and the ermlno trimmed robe
draped over her white shoulder. When
this la done, attended by all the pomp and
ceremony of a real coronation, Tltanla
wavta the magic wand, her aubjecta, young
and old, bow down ant pay her homage,
and the alx daya carnival reign over Aa
bury Park Is begun. Following the corona
tlon an entertainment la given in her honor.
one In which hundreds of Uttle children
take part, many of them representing fair
ies. Thia occupies the time up to midnight,
when Queen Tltanla. like Cinderella, dis
appears until the next night.
Some Royal Faartleaa,
The second entertainment Is to be in the
form of a queen'a drawing room, where a
reception will be held and distinguished
personages will be presented to her royal
highness. The coronation usually takes
place In the Beach auditorium and the
drawing room will be held in the Royal ar
cade, a pavilion standing at one end of tho
boardwalk.
Ou the third day there will be a festival
In which the volunteer and raid firemen of
the resort will participate, parading before
the queen and courting her smiles of favor
and her glgnces of approval. Then, on the
following night, one of the unique features
of 'the carnival, and a comparatively new
one, the masque fete, will take place. Here
high revelry will reign and the whole rlty
will be given over to merrymaking. As
soon aa night falls Tltanla will be driven
lu U-r golden chariot to the royal pavilion
erected in Ocean avenue. From this point
for nearly a mile southward the avenue has
been closed aa a public thoroughfare. It
ba been fringed with electric lights and
made gay with a border of fluttering ban
tiers The royal pavilion each year is
docked with silken flags and carpeted with
crimson velvet. Tttanta'a golden throne ha
occupied th central position under the
silken canopy and flanking her majeaty
were the maids of honor and their devoted
courtiers.
. Upon the arrival of lb. royal party the
signal Is given for tha beginning of the
procession of maskera, numbering in tho
neighborhood of 10.000 gay revellers. They
proceed down the lighted avenue and then
visit the various hotels, .which are deco
rated la their honor and have their ball-
sawns thrown open to all who
oamlval badge. The qtn and her retinue
make tha rounds of the larger hotels and
lock on at a dance, after which the mas
quers pay their court to the royal party.
While gxyety reigns everywhere In the city
it la good-natured and harmless. Specta
tors may be attacked by a Jolly eet of
revellers, but the worst that they need fear
la being burled under a shower of confetti.
The Baby Parade.
All this gayety but loads up to the crown
ing event of the festivities, the baby
(arade.
Babies from every state In the union
and nearly every country In the world
have, one year or another, taken part In
this unique show. Weeks before the date
set for the parnde mothers enter their
children at the official booth on the board
walk, and at the eleventh hour hundreds
more entries come In, swelling the num
ber until Asbury Park seems to fittingly
deserve Its name of the Children's Para
dise. Eighty thousand people gather at the
resort to witness the annual parade, grand
stands are built to accommodate the vast
throng, while as far as the eye can reach
are gathered vast crowds of spectators
ranged along the line of march.
When the long line of little children
pass by in gala attire marching, being
wheeled In baby carriages, go-carts, ex
press wagons, toy automobiles, mounted
on ponies, sitting In pony carts, or posing
In symbolic attitude on a decorated float.
they present a picture the like of which
Is not to be found elsewhere In the world.
The carts and perambulators are entirely
hidden beneath the lavish decorations
thoughtfully planned and lovingly executed
by mother handa. Each proud parent hopea
to win a prise which will be a public ex
pression of her own thoughts concerning
the charms of her offspring.
Escorted by a guard of lllllputian Rough
Rldars there are flower girls, butterflies,
birds, Cupids, Dolly Vardens,x every con
ceivable character in fact, marching by,
while perambulators buried beneath a mass
of flowers or other decorations, with a tiny
baby face peeping out from its heart, pass
in review. The other features of the carni
val weok are not unlike those given In
other cities, some being on a much larger
scale, but the children's carnival, In which
the babies participate, touches the hearts
of the thousands of spectators as no other
pageant in the world doea, and makes each
one long to confer a prise upon svery tot
taking part;
Close of Festivities,
With the marine carnival on Deal lake,
the week's festivities are closed In a blaze
of light and splendor. Tltanla, seated In
a royal barge, strung with colored lights
and decorated with that lavlshness in
vogue when Cleopatra sailed the sunny
seas of the old world, reviews the fairy
like scene and the long line of decorated
boats and barges. When the last light
grows dim 'the golden coach, the regal
robe, the crown and sceptre, the milk
white horses, the heralds, pages and the
fairies who waited upon her highness as
sume their ordinary roles In life and As
bury Park becomes once again a free and
democratic olty with no thought of royalty
and precedence.
Several thousand dollars are spent In
handnome prises, over fifty being presented
at the last parade. A hundred persons are
required to serve on the various commit
tees which make and carry out plans for
the festival, and there are usually twenty
five Judges for the several divisions of the
parade. The members of the Asbury Park
Carnival association, which was established
in 1901, are named each year by the mayor
of the city, and upon them rests the re
sponsibility of conducting the entire affair.
Chamberlain's Colle, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy.
There Is probably no medicine made that
Is relied upon with more implicit confidence
than Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy. During the third of a cen
tury In which It has been In use people
have learned that it is the one remedy that
never fails. When reduced with water and
sweetened It is pleasant to take.
Foreign Financial.
LONDON. Sept. 1 The supplies of
money exceeded the demand In the market
today. Kates were easy. Discounts were
firmer despite the cheap money. Trading
on the Stock exchange was quiet but mod
erate investment buying and the strength
of Japanese imparted steadiness. Consols
at the opening hardened fractionally, but
eased later. Americana opened weak, but
the recent lower level Induced fresh buy
ing, which, with Wall street support,
caused a hardening all around. Prices
closed Arm. Japanese was the most active
amongst the foreigners. Internationals
were steady under continental sunoort.
Japanese imperial 6a of l0i were quoted at
106.
BERLIN, Sept. 1 Prices on the Bourse
were weak and practically shipping corn
pantos' shares were the only ones dealt In.
PARIS, Sept. 1 Prices on the Bourse
today were very Arm. Russians were strong
on the approach of the sinning of the
peace treaty aa avoidance of the payment
of an Indemnity makes tt unnecessary to
draw from Paris the Russian balance from
the last loan and leavea a large available
balance. Russian 4s gained 1 franc 46 cen
times. The price of Russian bonds of 1801
was 9.60 and that of Russian bonds of
1904 S0.

nlpht. This fact largely accounted for the

loads of corn taken for export helped to
stlmulnte demand. The Volume of trad
ing, however, was small. The market
rlosed at the highest point of the dnv.

ceipts were 2S6 cars.
A to decline in the price of live hogs
had a wenkenlng influence on the pro
visions market early in the session. Later
a fair demand from shorts caused a
steadier tone. An estimated decrease In
the world's stock of lard was in additional
bullish factor. At the close October pork
was up 6c, at tl5.22. Lard was off 2c at
t2.02. Ribs were unchanged, at 18.80.

CATTLE There were no cattle here to
day to make a test of the market. The
reeelpta for the week ahow a slight de
crease aa compared with last week and
quite a substantial gain aa compared with
tne aame week last year. About one-half
of the offerings were corn-feda of only
fair quality, many of the cattle being of
the half fat, warmed up order.
Although there was a sharp break lri
prices at eastern points, the market here
ror tne week snows up very satisfactorily.
The steer trade has been good and prices
for the most part flowed steadily up
ward. There waa a good, strong demand
from all sources for supplies and the
cattle were cleaned up In good shape
nearly every day. The market on native
cattle was uneven, advancing then de
clining until today, when prices for the
week ruled generally steady with last r ri-
day. . Western were In better demand and
ahow up Detter ror tne ween, prices Doing
a good 10ijfi6c higher than tne close 01
last week. On the commoner grades the
market was Just about steady.
The cow and heifer trade for the week
was very satisfactory, a good, strong do
mand prevailing nearly every day and
considerable activity being a feature of
the trade. Buyera were after cattle and
conditions favored selling Interests all
along. Prlcea on the good kinds were lo
160 nlgner, wnue common graues were
about steady.
Bulls, veal calves and stags were just
about steady with the close of last week
and there was a fair demand for the stuff.
Stockers and feeders continue in strong
demand and the market for the week
shows considerable improvement. Feeder
buyers were uuxlous for cattle all the
week and there were plenty of orders to
be filled. The market on the good, heavy
feeders waa fully Ii4fl5c higher, while the
lighter weights and common kinds were
fully steady.
HOQS The forty-six cars arriving today
and about thirty-four loads of hold
overs made about eighty loads on sale.
Packers were In the same bearish mood
they have been in the last couple of days
and pounded the market for another de
cline. The quality of the receipts was
fairly good. A feature of the trade that
was prominent all the week till today was
the slow and draggy trading. This wus
not true of the market today, for the
trade wus active and a clearance was
made in good season. The market was a
flat dime lower, with the light weights
feeling the full strength of the decline.
Heavy hogs, although lower, sold better
than any day this week, the prices rang
ing from 15.30 to 15.45, while on the light
weights prices were from 15.60 lo !.6i.
The bulk of the hogs sold today at 15 4xxo
6.65, topa reaching 16.65. Representative

SHEEP There wore only five cars here
not enough to make a market, although
prices ruled ateady. The market for the
week lias been in very satisfactory condi
tion and prices have held up lu good Shane.
The receipts were just about as heavy as
last week and the quality of the stuff
was fairly good. There waa a good strong
demand here all the week for supplies and
the market opened with prices a little
higher. Along toward the middle of th
week the market cased off a tittle end
prices were not so good, hut this slight
oecline was fully regained by the close of
the week and tne mailiet held J u hi about
steady. Although the receipts were mod
erate, there were about enough to fill the
requirements of the trade on fat stuff.
Killer sheep and lambs are selling very
well at this point and thure is no complaint
to be made.
Feeder buyers hsve Just cause to file a
protest, for the supply of fctd-,, iaM been
light so far thia aoason. Buyers have
plenty of orders and are anxious to fill
them, but the stuff is not coming In fast
enough to enable them to do very much.
The demand tills week was good and prlcea
were strong to a dime higher.
