PRICE is CENTS.
Boys Box Refer, No. 1904.
Hints by May Manton. J

Rough surface cheviot is chosen
for this comfortable top garment,
the freedom it allows for locomotion
making i. a great favorite with
young boys.
The coat is simply adjusted with
shoulder and side seams which
curve to define the figure and end
atthe top OF underlaps that are al
lowed at the back edges of the
fronts. These seams are machine
stitched, with regular tailor
finish.
The fronts are deeply crossed,
closing with buttons and button
holes in double-breasted style. and
comfortable pockets inserted at
convenient depth are covered with
laps edged with braid stitched on.
The deep collar is round in the
back and forms wide revers on the
fronts.
The comfortable sleeves are shap-
ed in accordance with the latest
tailor style, the waist being COM
pleted with braid. which is also
used to finish the fronts, collar and
lower edges of the natty top coat.
Smart REFERS NAV be made of
Scotch cheviot. tweed and heather
mixtures, kerscy and heavy serges,
the edges finished plainly or ma
chine stitched in tailor style.
Attention to the details of press
ing all seams and edges will ensure
a correct tailor finish. Be sure
that the material is well shrunken
and lay wet cloth over the seams,
pressing until dry.
TO make the overcoat for boy
six years old will require one and
tive-eighth yards of tifty-four inch
material. The pattern, No. 1894,
is cut in sizes for boys four, six,
and eight years old.
This pattern can be secured by

SHOE FACTORY
LOCATES HERE
The Electus Co. of Phila=
delphia to Locate Here
and Employ 900 Men

The Baker Morocco factory on
Fifth street between Church and
Spruce streets has been purchased
by the Electus Shoe Company o.
Philadelphia. The machinery for
the new plant has been shipped and
in the course OF a short time 600
men will be at work.
The building secured is one OF
the largest factories in the city and
is well located for the purpose in
tended. 1t is thought the machin-
cry can be installed and the factory
put in operation without much al.
iteration to the buildings. The fac
tory itself occupies the greater por-
ton of the block in which it is sit
uated and is a strong, well-con-
structed building. 1t is also ar.
ranged SO that the morocco factory.
and shoe factory portions may be
kept separate and still be under
the direct management OF the oflic-
ers Of the company. If it should be
necessary to enlarge, additional
stories could be added. as the build
ing is amply strong to support more
weight.
Some idea Of the size of the plant
may be obtained from the state
ment that at the commencement of
business the company will manu-
tacture /, 200 pairs of shoes a day.
As the business places throughout
the country are established for the
sale of shoes this output will be in
creased from time to time until the
factory becomes one Of the largest
in the country. 1t has ample capi-
tai and Willningtonians were not
asked to put a cent in the business
in order to secure the plant. All
that was wanted was labor to draw
from good shipping facilities and a
proper building, all of which were
offered and accepted. e. L. Tunis,
a well-known business man of
Baltimore, is the president of the
s. company and the others interested
in it are equally well known.
The Company was chartered with
capital OF 100000 and 81, oOo.oO
has already been paid in by the
New York, Philadelphia and Balti-
more capitalists who compose the
company. The company will manu-
facturc Elcctus shoes. The shoes
fasten similar to gloves. About
fifty experienced hands will begin
the work and learners will be Sc
cured here. The members of the
Board of Trade are elated over the
company deciding to locate in
Wilmington. Members of the Board

EMILE DOLA'S DEFENSE
Of His Father on Charges Revived
by Enemies Of the Son.
FINDS TIE CHARGES BAsELEss,

And Points Out That His Subsequent
Reception by the King Indicates
That He Had Proved His Innocence.
The Documents Recently FaIsfhed.
Paris, Jan. 24.-Emile lola fills the
entire front page of The Aurore this
morning with the final instalment Of
his defense of the honor of his father,
Francois lola. and with the results
of his investigation of the military
dossier dealing with the charges of
malversation. He brings out the sus-
picious part General Billot played in
the compilation and emasculation OF
the dossier, which lay utterly neglect
ed in the war Office archives until Gem
eral Biilot became minister OF war.
Then sudden interest was taken in it.
and the documents were collected and
placed in a fresh envelope.
1t was during General Billot's min
istry that the dossier was rebrganized
by Lieutenant Colonel Henry, the for
ger and suicide, and M. Judet, editor
of the Petit Journal, published the two
alleged letters Of Colonel Combes con-
tanning the accusations.
NJ lola says that the first of these
letters is now admitted to have been a
forgery, and that the second even If
authentic, was mutilated and falsifled.
During his investigations he unearthed
another dossier treating of system of
Notifications submitted to the war Of
fee by his father in 1881. The charges
against his father concerned 1882, yet
In 1886 the documents prove that his
father was received by the king In
reference to his system of fortifica-
lions, and again in lS40.
Had the king and the war Office for
gotten the charges OF 1892" he asks,
land how can adj It an indelible
stain upon his honor when I see my
father thus holding his head high"
M. lola acquired the conviction from
study of the documents and from his
fathers treatment by the king, subse-
quent to the charges, that, although
charges may have been made. his
father satisfactorily explained his con-
duct and was recognized as innocent.

Suit For Losses in Grain Gam bling

Suit For Losses in Grain Gambling.
Chicago, Jan. 24.-Judge jerks, in
the United States circuit court yester-
day, dismissed, ON the ground of no
jurisdiction. the suit of Mrs. Amanda
E. Stichteneth against the Central
Stock and Grain Exchange. of Chicago.
The woman sought to recover three
times $20.660, which was the amount
said to have been lost by her husband
through speculations on the grain ex-
change. Under state law a plaintiff
has the right to sue to recover treble
the amount Of money lost by another
at gaming" and II judgment is given
the amount is to be divided between
the plaintiff and the county. Sticheneth
is alleged to have lost $20.660 of his
wife's money. Action will probably be
begun in the state courts at once.

TEXAS TAXATION SCHEME :
Il Will Greatly Increase Corporatiol
and Personal Property Taxes.

Il Will Greatly Increase Corporatioz
aad Personal Property Taxes.
Austin, Jan. 34.-Ths Texas legisla-
ture was convened in special session
yesterday for the consideration OF q
proposition submitted by the state tar
committee, created at the last session
of the legislature, to revise the entire
taxation system OF the state.
This measure is far reaching, being
termed dragnet that will greatly in
crease corporation and personal prop
erty taxes and is. in many instances,
SO drastic that 1t has occasioned much
opposition. In fact, a poll Of the legis-
lature shows that many Of the mem
bers are opposed to the bill and there
promises to be lengthy fight over its
consideration.
The corporations would suffer Sc
verely In the levy of taxes under this
proposed law, and the taxation of
mortgages and notes, as contemplated
in the bill. will occasion fight from
large portion of the wealthy people
Of the state, as well as the banking
interests.
