England finds it Impossible to dock
her biggest battle ships outside of Eu-
rope. The Hong Kong Dock Com
pany has refused to take the risk of
docking the Victorious, as the battle
ship is only six inches narrower than
the dock entrance. She must, there
fore, return to England to be cleaned
unless she can get into the Malta dock.
The Victorious, it will be remembered,
ran aground at the entrance to the
Suez canal on her way to China snd
was tloated again with difficulty. The
reason given at the time was that her
anchors were not big enough to hold.

field will be filed before the expiration

AN "THE BOSTON"
Millinery OpeuinG Last Monday and
Tuesday Grand Success.

All Wichita was there is hardly putting
it too strong. when speaking of the Bos-
ton Stores millinery success on last Mon
day and Tuesday. The Boston Store
reputation as an authority on stylish
millinery is so widespread that their an
nouncement of this opening in last Sun
days Eagle drew the ladies out by the
thousands. Early Monday afternoon
they began to come TO the store, and for
the two days it required every effort of
thA Boston Stores people to furnish
standing room for their guests The
millinery department was scene of
beauty and gaiety. There's nothing in
the world that interests women as much
as a new hat. For hours and hours
women stood before plate glass mirrors,
trying on the different styles, just for the
pleasure of it. The "Boston's" obliging
salesladies stood by, arranging one hat,
then another; suggesting this and that,
until, to the uninitiated, it seemed that
tired arms and aching feet would surely
cause all patience to vanish. But with
these trained salespeople, their smile re-
manned the same, and the latest corners
received as hearty a welcome as the
first callers. The skylight over the
millinery department was darkened with
azure blue cloth, giving the light in the
room a soft touch, which, with the light
from seventy-five incandescent lamps,
made the millinery room very beautiful
indeed. profusion of green plants and
palms were placed about the room in
way very suggestive of tropical chimes,
and from above came the soft music of
stringed instruments. Many handsome
compliments were paid the store on the
millinery display by the lady visitors,
and it seemed to be the verdict of most
of those present that the Boston Stores
millinery display was the big show of
them all. The firm have reason to be
proud of their success.
