White French Piques
Southwest of center)

The new little French store
opened for spring white goods
probably holds more imported
novelties than you ever saw
together in this country.
The maker says SO himself
and he ought to know, for
he sends over most of the ex-
quisite white things that cross
the ocean.
Among the piques alone are
fifty different designs-and
such designs!
A wide damask stripe is the most
striking and one of the most beautiful
ideas. All sorts of things are woven
through it-bird s-eye dots, stiff
little flowers and lovely MORE effects.
Other designs are made up of two
and three-bar fences Of tiny cords,
which separate crowding troops of
little figures. Broken plaids, blocks,
and lace stripes are used, too, in
many new combinations. Sometimes
it takes four or five different weaves
to make up a single pattern.
French pique is free from
the stiffness and heaviness
that pique generally has.
1t is soft and light, and that, taken
with the attractiveness of the new
designs, makes it one Of the prettiest
possible things for shirtwaists and
whole gowns.

One type of the Fourner-Scorchmont automobile.
Our representative has Just returned
on the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse from
the Paris Automobile Show (the only
representative of an American store, by
the way, who was there) and he re-
ports that the demand for automobiles
abroad is so great that all the factories
are filled up with orders from six to
eighteen months ahead
Everywhere you 60 in Paris you see an
automobile-scarcely anything else. Out
side OF the Grand Palais, where the Auto
mobile Show was held, there were lined up
one afternoon 322 private automobiles
This shows what is coming in this
country-for come it will; there never
was successful machine in one coun-
try that didn't go all around the world.
Our representative went to Paris to see
If there was a better automobile on the
market than the Searchmont He made a
thorough investigation of all the types
shown there, and puts his conclusion this
way:
"7ahe tile best French tbe, simplify
it, buf better material III ii, and you
haze n ,Scarchm0nk"
His opinion is not a biased one for this
store has no object in selling one automobile
more than another; it simply aims to sell the
best.
Another American who wanted to
buy an automobile for his own use went
all the way to Paris SO that he would be
sure OF getting the best He studied
the show for days, and wound up by
buying ,oearchW0Nt-We sold it to him
right on the spot where the French
machines were being shown.
Henri Fourner, the great chauffeur, was
SO impressed with the Searchmont at the
New York Automobile Show that he imme-
diately opened negotiations with the
Searchmont Company and has formed a
business connection with them, the new firm
being now called the Fou1n1er- Searehmout
Autom0bale Combany: and this will be the
name of the automobile
The reputation of French automobiles is not due
to the automobiles themselves much as the great
care which is taken of them by their owners
An American thinks automobile ought to run
forever; Frenchman realizes that he has machine
that needs care and looking after.
II americans aoonIa gzve as much care to
their automobaleS as they do to their horses
and carriages there 0oould be 0eay/eaO break
do7vns.
Our automobile storage station at Twenty third and
Walnut streets established Just for this
small cost will keep your car in good order every
day.
The Searehmont is just as up-to-date as
the French automobiles and in some things
ahead; it has every improvement they have
and some that they don't have.
Immediate deliveries are now being made
of the $3.50 six-horse power single cylinder
car; Of the $1,000 twelve-horse power double
climber car; and of the $500 touring car

a few of the cersages have been pro-
vided with lace yokes or dchus with

Young corbett and Boyle Spar.

Philadelphia, Nov. 18.-Young Cor
bett and Crock Boyle of Philadel-
phia spared six rounds tonight at
the Washington Sporting club. That
Boyle stayed the limit was a surprise
to the spectators. After the first
round he appeared to be Corbett's
equal, and fought gamely. In the
first round Corbett floored Boyle twice
and seemed to be playing with his OPP
ponent. In the second, third, four and
sixth rounds, however, Boyle made an
excellent showing, surprising both the
spectators and Corbett. In the fifth
round the fighters mixed it up and
honors were even.

THE BIG DITCH.
Superintendent Searles Engaged
Making Long Needed Repairs.

Making Long Needed Repairs.
From Saturdays Daily Gazette.
Superintendent E. P. Searles OF the
Big Ditch company is in the city to-
day arranging for the institution OF
much needed work at this end Of the
canal. Nothing in the way OF repair
ing or cleaning the ditch has been at
tempted at this end for a number OF
years and the accumulation of silt and
the dirt of cave-ins has greatly lessen
ed it's carrying capacity, making 1t
almost impossible to supply the ranch-
ers below the Hesper farm with water
sufficient for their needs.
Mr. Searles has a crew at work at
the upper end and is also making new
gates, repairing old ones and in other
ways improving the canal. He says
that when the work now under way
shall have been completed the ditch
will carry all the water needed, as in
addition to cleaning it out he VII
also widen it considerably.

Tucked Skirts.

Skirts deeply tucked are telling an
effective story in taffeta souple and
yoile, particularly wolfe. The tuckings
referred to are horizontal and COM
a good three inches deep, gradu-
ally decreasing until the required Sc
ries is completed. This vogue at pres:
ent is so much the property of the elect
few the lesser lights in the modistic
world have not grasped how the treat
ment is accorded 10 a skirt apparently
shaped. And thereby hangs a tale OF
great sartorial skill. for the tucked
skirts are Il self evident fact. One un.
derstands at once the possibilities OF
such tucks in a chiffon or net, and no
more tasteful treatment for either Us
there to lie found. Indeed tucks of CIV
cry denomination are to be accepted
as the leading stitchery fad of the
hour.

HAS SEEN LOT OF FIGHTING.
Boy Of Seventeen Has Some Remark
able War Experience.

Miles City, Nov. 17.-Fred l.. How,
a battle-scarred veteran, who claims
to be a survivor Of the Chinese and
Philippine campaigns, landed here this
morning, and his appearance ~cerainly
gives credence to his story. He is II
years Of age and is now in search OF
his parents. He says he ran away
from his home in Kentucky when the
war broke out in 1898, and started on
his military career as mascot with
company X of the Eighteenth Kansas
regiment. He was in the fight at
Caloocah, and was wounded twice
while carrying water to the firing line.
After a great deal of hard campaign
ing with his regiment he attached
himself to company G of the Ninth
regiment and went to China. He
made the march to Pekin, and in the
| fight near that city was shot in the
] head, his wound causing him to lose
| his hearing and speech. Later when.
his company was on duty in Samar
and was surprised and nearly ami
hilated one morning at breakfast, he
was again wounded in the head, but
managed to crawl away, and while
hidden witnessed the slaughter of his
comrades and the mutilation of the
dead and wounded by the Filipinos.
On his return to America about a
month ago he found that his parents
had moved from their Cid home and
he has not been able to find any
trace of them.
