Congressman w. Bourke Cochran has

ran, who has been very i'll. The first
thing Mr. Cochran did on reaching the
city was to visit his old law partner,
Corporation Counsel William H. Clark,
with whom he had two hours con-
ference.
The meeting of these two men was an
instructive illustration of the ups and
downs of politics. Two years ago w.
Bourke Cochran was one of the big
Four in Tammany Hall. He was one
of the political forces in the city, State
and nation. He wrote the platforms Of
his party In this State. Party principles
and party policy were decided by his
advice. When his eloquent voice was
raised in behalf of Tammany thousands
fiocked to hear him and Joined in saying.

No longer Is he asked to meet by the

compound their political pills, without

plume has been snatched from his bon

legacy to Tammany Hall. How. faith.

Mr.. Clark stands closer to Mayor Gill
roy, the new leader OF Tammany. than
any man in the organization, while
Cochran, the former big chief. Is now q
persona non grata.
Mr.. Clark would not admit that Cock
ran came to him to seek denomination.
He said Mr.. Cochran made merely q
social call. But II Is known that Mr..
Cochran is a candidate: that no Tam
many District leader, would consent to
his denomination without orders from
headquarters. Hence 1t is necessary to
get some one to intercede for him. and

write the one to be adopted by the Sar-
atoga Convention on Sept. %. Politi-
clans are curious to know what kind Of

been askingsthese questions:
Is he going to sustain Senator Murphy,

against the bill, or is he going to sus:

the measure to become a law? The I'm.

INDEPENDENTS JUBILANT.
The Fight Against Tammany II

Leaders of the Independent County Or

outlook against Tammany Hall. they

Cooper Union in December last. ana

cannonading against the iniquities OF
the Tammany organization. They are
fully organized in all of the different
assembly districts. and are now using
all their efforts to bring about coali-
ton Of all Anti-Tammany elements.
The Executive Committee OF the or
ganization has called a meeting for next
tuesday night at the Union Square Ho-

to the County Convention. which will,

GOOD STYLE IN SHOES.
Nice Sole Leather Is the Founda'
ten Of Elegant Footwear.
The New Fall Bcot Is Built on the

Riding Boot Heels, Deep Vamps and
Straight Tips on Everything.

Fine footwear is the very foundation
of elegant attire.
Bonnet. gloves. wrap. dress-the whole
toilet, in fact. is marred or charmed by
the addressed or wel-dressed feet that
carry 1t.
Many women think that because they
wear skirts their feet don't show, and
consequently any sole leather is good
enough. That Is a great mistake. They
do show. They are displayed at every
step, and in repose 1t requires muscular
effort to hide them. 1t Is not only an
evidence Of gentle breeding to sit with
one or both feet forward. but 1t is
natural; the attitude is restful and
graceful. The inclination Of the limbs
is In lines, not angles.

Only a slim foot should be dressed in
white. The limit is a No. B, accord
ing to the artists point of view. A
foot of d width, even No. -l-2, 1 or
1-2, is never pretty in a white shoe.
1t is too suggestive of a salt-bag or
apple-dumpling to be artistic.
The yellow street boots and shoes are
made of undressed calf or oil-grained
calf, the color Of the leather as it
comes from the tanner. They are
waterproof, built on the combination
and English lasts, and have thick soles.
The shoes will be worn with melton
spats the self-same color as the calf.
They are glove-fitted. and dress the an
kles prettily as well as comfortably.
French calf-skin makes the best ali.
round boot. The lightest grades are Sc
lected and made with medium stout
soles, showing the Scotch welt OF black
stitching. Stock of this kind is polished
and when well kept Is very handsome on
the foot. While the vanished calf
makes the prettiest street boot, 1t Is not
good form In bad weather or for morn
ing wear. Trees pay for themselves in
short while. There Is no other way
to keep good leather as 1t should be
kept. Leather needs an occasional dose
OF oil to keep II soft A few drops of
kerosene oil applied on flannel Is all
the dressing patent-leather boot needs.
