lowest in the history of the city, and

Miss Dora M. Casey, bring out each season
the new ideas, and always have a good
showing in the latest shapes and colors.
Among the outing and ready-to-wear hats is
a short back sailor in the newest shades of
pearl, castor, brown, royal and black. Fur
felts in Alpine styles were shown in yariors
colorS and the new Pan-American style
trimmed with soft materials in Persian
colors attracted much attention. Untrim-
med hats are carried in great variety and
trimmed to order in the latest styles, colors
and materials. Cancels hair dress shapes in
fine quality in black, pearl and castor were
much admired and many orders were left
Turbans and flats prevail largely. Bell
crown flats and turbans of reeded satin are
entirely new and very stylish. Ostrich
feathers are more in favor than they have
been for many years, and fancy feathers,
breasts, wings and pompOnS are popular
iheaSants breasts are among the most fash
lonable, and padded wings stand high in
general appreciation. A great variety of
new velvets are used, including the novelty
panne in Persian patterns, colored silk and
mirror velvets, and form most satisfactory
line for medium and fine trade LOuisine
silks in soft finish, polka dot satin, the new
fine soft millinery felt and mohairs are
among the favOrites. The newest designs
in ornaments include oxidized, steel, let,
rhinestone, gilt, and gun metal. Many Of
the designs are decided novelties and must
be seen to be appreciated.
The opposite side of the store is occupied
by Miss Hattie M. Black, who has her
shelves, counters and showcases filled COM
pletely with such variety that one in
search for any article of ladies' or children's s
wear cannot fail to find just what is wanted.
Her line Of gloves, hosiery, corsets, under

IL is futile to argue from the anar.

IN every community there are a few
anarchists. Their existence is men,
ace to the life Of every one who has
agreed to live and do business accord
log to the provisions Of the Constitu.
ton. They believe that it is merit
nrious to kill officials elected by The
people to execute the laws passed by
the peopie. When they mark man
for Gea n they do not inform him or
anyone outside Of their organization
Of inc sentence but execute it when
their victim is least prepared to re-
: St. With such history ard such
tenets there is no way for society to
protect itself against them except to
arrest and imprisuD them before they
have an opportunity to kill and after
they have definitely identified them
selves as anarchists. The warming
rattle Of the rattlesnake is enough To
identify the snake as an enemy to
MN. The stuff that has been ap.
nearing in the New York World and
10 the Chicago American is just as
definite defiance Of and menace u
organized society. The editor Of The
World and of The American is more
dangerous anarchist than Emma
Goldman or than any other publisher
Of an anarchist paper. Socialist pa
pers have small circulation and
their subscribers are depraved and
lazy loafers, whose only plan for max
Ing money is to take it away from
someone else. But the World and the
American are filled with pictures OF
TRACTORS i'm and the scenes of curren,
events. The papers are very cheap
and ali sorts Of respectable and high
minded people buy them. Thus the
poison reaches the very readers whC
have heretofore been uninfected.
