Mr.. Barry Buckley, secretary of the Bus
mess Mems Association. has informed the
District Commissioners that the associa-
zion is opposed to the proposition to make
Pennsylvania avenue a boulevard, and to
prohibit the passage thereon during GER
tain hours of the day Of heavy vehicles
To place such a prohibition on such We

association, will work irreparable injury
TO the interests and serious detriment to

of the city's trade. On behalf of the or
ganizatioD Mr.. Buckley entered its earnest
and serious protest against the enactment

The prestige of this shoe
store grows greater constant
ly. We are untiring in OUR
efforts to show you the most
complete stock OF fashionable
footwear that can be gather
ed. Since we've been here in
Our new building our stock
and variety has approached
as near as possible to perfec-
ton.
1t is certainly a great sat-
isfaction to be recognized as
the one distinctive and ex-
elusive shoe store in the Ma
tons Capital. This is the one
shoe store in which wedding,
evening and reception foot
wear and novelties OF all sorts
are not a side line, but a spe-
cial and important feature.
For instance, we have sup
piled the footwear for the
trousseauN OF the leading
brides of the season. We fur
nished the footwear for as
many as four fifths OF those
who attended the recent
Charity Ball, fancy dress ball,
Presidents reception and
State dinner.
Much of this we made to
order-much of the material
was supplied us, so that the
footwear matched perfectly.
However, we have every
fashionable shade in stock in
kid and satin slippers, SO that
If your needs are immediate,
we can supply them.
Nowhere else will you find
anything to compare with our
showing of riding boots for
ladies and men. Here YOU
find the same novelties"
which have been pronounced
fashionable in New York.
The new Spring shoes are
already arriving-frSt to an

Daring Attempt to KlII a Guard.

A daring attempt to kill guard Newton
Hedges, at the Getzendaner alley, was
made by negro man shortly after mid
night last night. 1t seems that the pre-
vious night Mr.. Hedges had called
halt on some one approaching the
infected house IN that locality from the
south end of the alley, and the man not
needing the warning, the guard fred
and compelled him to retreat. Last night
a negro man came up and turning upon
Mr.. Hedges said, You shot at me last
night, didn't you7" whereupon Mr..
Hedges replied that he shot at some one,
but didn't know who. The negro then
quickly placed a pistol against the breast
of the guard and fired. Fortunately the
ball did not penetrate very far, and it is
hoped he is not seriously injured. The
force of the ball knocked Mr., Hedges
down, but he was able to fire several
shots at the retreating negro, with what
effect is not known.

Do You Like Ham ?

This question may be answered in the
affirmative by most persons, especially if
the ham is good. Although hams have
been curind for centuries, the art of get
ting them just right seems as difficult to-
day sever. In dispensing this toothsome
dainty our aim has been to overcome the
old complaint too salty which seems
to be the great fault with most hams.
This salt feature we have conquered and
this, together with the fact that our meats
are all inspected, has built us up in one
year, trade on meat that is enviable.
