THIRTY YEARS IN BUSINESS.
Saks & Company Are Celebrating til
Anniversary of Their Opening.

Saks & Company Are Celebrating the
Anniversary of Their Opening.
Passers by Saks & Co.'S big store, at the
corner of Pennsylvania avenue and tin
street, today. found the building hung with
flags, in honor of the thirtieth anniversary
of their entree into business.
The old residents of the city will remem-
Der the original Saks store, located in the
north end of the old Avenue House, that
stood on the site of the present building, its
unpretentious proportions and its modest
stock giving no prophecy of the great fu-
ture Of which it was to be the parent. They
will remember, too, that some misgivings
were entertained as to the ability of Wash
ington to support such an enterprise when
it was announced that Saks & Co. had ac-
quired this corner and proposed to erect
thereon a structure of such mammoth pro-
portions. Time has demonstrated that
Washington is capable of sustaining any
thing that is worthy of Washington, and
with the success that has followed this
house everybody is acquainted.
1t may no, be generally known that Saks
& Co. own and control five other retail
stores in four other cities, and maintain
their own clothing factory in New York
The other retail stores are located in Rich
mond, Va, Norfolk, Va, Indianapolis, Ind.
with two in the city Of New York. AS Mr..
ISadore SakS, the resident partner, said to
stores is. a great advantage to our WASH
ington patrons. With six to supply we are
about the biggest buyers who go into the
market, and quantities, you know, regulate
prices largely. We pay cash, and We get
all the discounts that are to be had.
THAT advertising phrase of ours-tour
prices are lower for similar qualities than
any house in the United States'-is, we be-
lieve, literally true. You can understand
how it can be.
And then our manufacturing depart
ment. We started that because we felt we
could make better clothing than we could
buy. There isn't question but that We do,
and it takes the full capacity of our facili-
ties to supply our stores. Mr.. Andrew Saks
gives his entire time to this branch of the
business. The result is that we have sue
ceeded in banishing the prejudice MANY
nlen held for ready-made clothing by Civ
ing them the same satisfaction they can
get out of custom making and with a larger
variety to select from, at less cost That
was a good move for us.
I'VE think we've reason to feel proud of
the success that has attended our career
here. One doesn't realize how many friends
for them to give expression to their kindly
feelings. I've been shaking congratulating
hands all day.
I'VE have tried to conduct this business
on broad-gauge principles. OF course.
money making is the goal but we've en-.
deayored to build to endure. We have
worked to merit the esteem and confidence
OF the whole community. and surely the
steady growth of our business shows the
public appreciation of our methods The
only way We can rectprocate Is to work
harder to make this a better store even
than it has been, or Is Hard to see lust
how, but we shall keep trying"

ing at 2:s6 Nav Jersey avenue southeast,
the chairman, Henry Dotson, stating that
the object of the meeting was to make
preparations to assist in the campaign in
Maryland
Chas. H. Stfothers, in a lengthy address,
appealed TO the members to forsake the re-
publican. party and cast their lots with the
democratic party, complaining that the re-
publicanSs have drawn a color line deeper
than they hadeever done before, leaving the
negro the Laughing stock of his many
democratic friends.
The SPEECH caused quite a commotion
among the members, and Winston b. Hill
arose, and inela speech full of spirit GEN.
sured not only Mr.. Strothers. but the negro
preachers of Baltimore, as well, Tor daring
in the face of public opinion, to draw the
negroes support from the republican party.

in its broadcast form.

ed. The meeting was adjourned until next

PATRONS AS WITNESSES.
Methods Adopted to Obtain Evidence
Against Suspected Houses.


Against Suspected Houses.
Patrons of some of the so-called mas
sage parlors, where the police suspect an
illegal business is being carried on In oppo-
sition to the houses in the disreputable
part of the city, may soon be called upon
to appear in court witnesses. There are
a number of these places suspected, and the
police of the first precinct are watching
them.
In some of these establishments there
are female operators who once lived I'm the
Division, and complaints have been made
to the police that the massage sign is only
a blind for an illegal business. A recent
experience taught the police that II is not
an easy matter to obtain convictions. owing
to the difficulty in securing evidence For
this reason the officers have adopted the
method of watching the places to obtain
the names of patrons as witnesses. At
some of the houses the presence OF the
policemen was made known, and one es-
tabishment closed its doors to the public
yesterday.
When the police think they have sufii-
cient information in a particular case a
raid will follow, and the proprietors will
be taken into court
Lieutenant Amiss, speaking to a Star re-
porter today, said thar ne had found it
necessary to adopt this means of obtaining
evidence, because of the character of the
proof required by the court. Women I'm the
establishments, he said, cannot always be
relied upon to state the truth, and unless
some of the patrons are found II is almost
impossible to convict.
The lieutenant said II the courts will sus-
tain the officers after the cases are made,
and impose jail sentences instead OF fines,
there will soon lie no reas on for complaints
of the nuisance.
