STYLES IN SHOES
Nothing New in the Patterns For
 Spring Wear.

The local dealers in shoes have re- ceived nearly their full stock for spring. There have been no radical changes in styles for three years" said shoe man. yesterday; "and the shoes for this spring and summer are little diff ferent from those of a year ago. Tan shoes have been steadily going out of fashion in the east. but are still in heavy demand here. the light colored shoe showing the dust less than a black one. Tan shoes for ladies have never been very popular and are now being worn less than usual. It is like- ly that womans vanity has much to do with this. as a tan shoe naturally attracts attention to the feet, and a woman with large pedal extremities us- ually does not care to exhibit them. We have some customers who like the tan shoes, but have noticed that most of them have small feet. The canvas shoes will. of course, be worn a great deal here. and our sales are always heavy in them. The canvas shoe can hardly be made into a good-looking shoe. and they soon lose their shape, but they are certainly comfortable"

ARTIFICIAL FLESH.
The Austrian Discovery of Fat
 tening Process.


 New York, March 1.-New York phy- siclans are slow to express an opinion regarding the latest medical discovery reported from Vienna. It is that of Prof. Gersuny. director of the Ru- dolf hospital in Vienna, who claims to have found means by which mix ture of parafiin and vaseline could be injected under the skin to fatten thin people. IL is said that the treatment has been successfully used to make good entire portions of flesh that have been removed. The treatment consists of injecting the mixture at a temperature of 10i degrees. It Is claimed that the substance permanently remains at the point of injection without changing it's position and without irritating the surrounding parts.

PETTY THEFTs IN HOTELS
Heavy Losses Are Due to Pilfering By
 Souvenir Hunters.

"I see that Los Angeles hotel and restaurant men have formed an as sociation to protect themselves from petty thieves. and should like to see such an organization in Phoenix re- marked d hotel keeper. yesterday. "The hotels and eating houses here lose large amount each year as a result or the peculations of guests. Many of the thefts may be attributed to souv- enir hunters. many of whom ara women. and it Is hard to reach them. However. such an amount of silver. glassware and knickknacks in taken away that it is time we took steps [" protect ourselves. Many tourists have grown into the habit of collecting souvenir from each hotel that they visit, and have practiced their steal ings until they have grown into verit- able kleptomaniacs. We often know when our guests take small articles, but we have not nerve enough to kick. One time last winter however. 1 made an exception. young woman from New York state was seen to take sev- eral spoons forks and knives from the table, and once she took several fAncy toCktul SldSStS lo nel rooiii. S" often was she in her thefts that I de cided to ask her to replace the arti- cles she had taken. She vehemently denied the charge [ made and We searched her trunks. There We found a marvellous Gssortm, mt From nearly every prominent hotel in the country she had taken several souvenirs and two trunks were full of silver and glassware. o;g. most of the articles with the mark of the hotel from whence they come The girl was very wealthy. with property valued at near ly million dollars. and with what ap- peared. aside from her stealing pro pensities. to be fine, moral charac- ter. She tearfully confessed that she could not help stealing. She left the city that night.
 There are doubtless many cases like hers and as a result. there Is heavy drain on our profits. If a strong or ganization is formed. We can stand to- gether and a few prosecutions of such cases will put stop to the trouble.

M'KINLEY shot

Mckinley as a statesman and politician

Emporia, Sept. 6.-Says the Gazette:
Mrs. Laura E. Holder1nan is suing for
her birthright After her birth "a years
ago her mother became insane. Mrs.
HOlderman was incarcerated in an
asylum, and d. w. Holderman, her
husband, became her guardian. He fell
in love with Hannah Gracey. He want
ed to marry her. Insanity was no
cause for divorce. He fixed up a
scheme; had II. c. Cross, his next
friend. appointed his insane wife's
guardian. and then brought suit to have
her marriage annulled on the ground
that Mrs. Holderman was insane when
she married-an absurd proposition It
was railroaded through in chambers
before a referee and the marriage was
annulled-as nasty a trick as was ever
played in Emporia. The annulling of
the marriage made Laura z. Holder
man -Waggoner an illegitimate child.

To Discuss the Conditions in
South America.

Washington, Sept. 6.-Some import
ant issues have grown out of the
trouble in Colombia which are likely
to require the attention of the presi-
dent and his cabinet. and il was stated
today that a cabinet meeting may be
held within week. possibly at Cleve-
land where the president is going 20
attend the Grand Army emcampment-
Owing to the increasing complications
along the isthmus of Panama. IL has
become desirable to determine the eN-
act duties and responsibilities Of the
United States. This has presented the
issue whether our treaty with Colombia
makes the United States a guarantor
of Colombfa's sovereignty over the ell
tire isthmus, some 400 miles from end
to end, or confines our guaranty 70
free transit across that particular point
on the isthmus where railway and other
traffic is usually carried on The dis
tinction is an important one as to ter

ABOUT THE PRESIDENT.
Brilliant Record of the Assassins
Victim.


William Mckinley was born in Niles,
Ohio. February 26, 1874. He enlisted in
the Twenty third Ohio and was must
cred out in 1865 as a brevet major. He
was elected to the house of representa-
tives from Ohio in 1876, and served IA
years with one brief interval being de-
feated in 1890 as the result Of a gerry
mander." At the national Republican
conventions of 1888 and 1892 his name
was mentioned but he declined to be
a candidate for the presidential nomi-
nation He was elected governor of
Ohio in 1891 by a plurality of 21,511, and
reelected in 1893 by plurality of 81
995. He was elected as the twenty-fiftn
president of the United States Novem-
Der 8, 1896, and reelected last No
vember.
HIS PERSONAL LIFE.
Such is the brief outline of the life
of the twenty-ffth president
William Mckinley has been called the
representative American In features,
thought, and in life he has probably
merited the term better than any of
the other twenty-four men who have
mounted the steps of the White House
as president Of the United States lack
ing the supreme military erninence
achieved by Grant, the sublime quail
ties that are associated with the mem
ory of Lincoln, and the greatness of
Washington. there is but one other,
Garfield, so nearly typical Of the repre-
sentative average American as the
present president and nominee.
McKinley's life until the day in June,
1896, when he was nominated for presi-
dent was not much different from that
of any other of his fellow citizens who
had arisen to prominence and enjoyed
honor at the hands of the public. He
had a creditable war record; he was
congressman, reelected seven times,
and had been governor Of Ohio for two
terms. His career had not been me-
teoric, and his chief claim to promi-
nence lay in the fact that he was the
greatest living exponent of the protec-
ton side of the great economic question
that was then dividing the two great
parties
A sober. serious life of earnest pur-
pose-that has been the life OF William
Mckinley. According to family tradi-
tions he came of Scotch and Irish an
cestry. and he is popularly supposed to
have combined in him the character
istic qualities OF both races.

was discovered. The three rooms of the
house were all burning with equal
fierceness which would indicate that
the house was set on fire in several
places. The fact that Miss Hounsom's
body was found in the bed and heavily
covered with bed clothing leaves little
doubt of foul murder. Miss
Hounsom would have been awakened
by the flames, had she been alive when
the fire started, and would have been
able to at least crawl from the bed to
another part of the house before she
was sumocated.
WINDOWS NEAR BED.
The bed occupied by Miss Hounsom
was in the northeast corner Of the
house in a small bedroom There was a
window on the east side of the house
and another on the. north The bed was
in the corner between the two windows
