sTo PRESERVE PEACE.
That Is the Chief Prayer of German
Emperor.


st. Johann Saarbrucken, Prussia, May IA.
gomaster's address OF welcome upon the
arrival of his majesty there today, re-
called the year 1870 when Emperor VIII
lam 1. passed through Saarbrucken on his
way to the battlefield of Spichern. The
emperor said:
ITO his efforts and to the grace of
God is due the fact that Saarbrucken Is
no longer frontier city This territory
is no longer open to devastating attacks
by an enemy, for l. his successor as the
ress of Metz, which Is strongly forti-
fed bulwark of this land, which, God
willing. will never again be devastated
by war. for so -long as every German
does his duty to the fatherland. namely,
founds a home and dedicates his forces
to the fatherland, SO long will our unity
show itself to the world without as IL
must. in order that We may live IN peace
II pray Good to lead me in my endeav-
ors TO preserve the peace of my lond
AS We have clear conscience and look
for quarrel nowhere. God will stand by
us should hostile forces attack our peace
fulness."
In conclusion, Emperor William ex-
pressed the conviction that the citizens
of Saarbrucken would always strike for
their affairs. the empire, the emperor and
the fatherland."

BUSINESS PROSPERITY.
Tony Weinsehenk Makes Great I'm.
provement in His Grocery Store.


While many towns and cities through
out the country are complaining of lieht
business, Wichita merchants are enjoy
ing fine trade and constantly growing.
Many have found II necessary 70 enlarge
their floor space AM increase their SELL
ing force. Tony weinschenk. the fancy
grocer. has just completed number of
improvements. His store has been en-
larged. extending back the fnn depth of
the lots. additional shelving and counters
put in and balcony built In the back
part His business ONCE has been moved
farther back. where an enclosed 6fYice
has ben fitted up on an elevated moor
Ibis gives the entire front and central
part Of the store for displaying goods
ard more room for the convenience Of
the customers.
Another new feature which has heen add
ed Is an order Department.. This q tn the
center OF the back part Of the store ad-
joining the ONCE. where phone oraers are
put up by the order clerk as soon as
they are received. This also gives them
a double checking system. 20 avoid the
possibility of mistakes Another tele-
phone has recently been put In. giving
the store three 'phones-two new phones
u and 81. and one Bell phone. 81 This
was found advisable on account OF the
great number of phone orders. which
were too numerous for the two phones.
The store is lighted by both arc and
incandescent lights. and the windows
illuminated by incandescent lights with
reiectors The interior OF the store has
been newly painted and papered. and
there is not a nicer or more attractive

SHOD AND FED BY THE WEST
ST. LOUIS SUPREMACY IN THE
SHOE BUSINESS ESTABLISHED.
One of the Reasons for the Tremend-
GUS Strides 1t Has Made In Manu-
featuring is the Grit and Push
of Its Merchants.

Westward the star of empire takes its
way" sang the poet. His allusion was to
the restless trend of civilization to fol-
low the sun in it's course. In these days.
however, we place different construction
on the term empire" With us it means
commerce, tradS> and its movement is
steadily from the east TO the west. 1t is
not so many years ago when the west
bought all it's supplies from the east, pay
ing for the manufactured products it con-
sumed in wheat, corn and other food pro-
ducts. Today the west is still the great
food producer. but il has also become a
great manufa cturer, and has wrested the
palm of supremacy in many important
lines from the east
One of these lines is shoes For many
years New England seemingly had
mortgage on this industry The city Of
Lynn in Massachusetts was built by the
shoe industry, and its prosperity today is
dependent upon it. Many other New Eng
land towns are prosperous or depressed
according as the shoe business is -four
fishing or declining. Because the trans
formation Of the shoe manufacturing CEN
ter from the east to the west has been so
quickly wrought, many people do not
know that ST. Louis today manufactures
and sells more shoes than any other city
in the country. 1t has attained its posi-
ton so quietly and with so little ostenta-
tion that its prominence is hardly real
lied as yet.

Fair serves. IN ! striking way. to show
procession. The exhibit. which is made
by the Roberts. Johnson & Rand Shoe
Co. of ST. Louis, is that Of the arrange
ment and process of a modern American
shoe factory. In this exhibit the mani
fold details that interpose between the
rough leather and its transformation into
the tasteful and ornamental shoes Of COM
merce are every one shown.
The concern making the exhibit. by the
way, might with entire propriety be
placed On exhibition itself as an Object
lesson in accomplishment. The Roberts,
johnson & Rand Shoe Co. has led the
forces that have wrested from the east
control Of the nations shoe trace and
placed it III the west.
That is the case with the hgures 'hat
tell of the Roberts. johnson & Rand shoe
Co.'S growth. For instance, the average
production of its several shoe factories
varies from between 22.eoo to 29,oo" pairs
of finished shoes every working day IN
the year.
The fact that three million people are
today wearing Star Brand shoes is tne
best evidence of their worth and merit
This Company makes It's trade marx
stand for absolute perfection In shoes-
For the maintenance Of this standard no
detail Is too slight or insignificant TO re-
ceive the most painstaking attention.
This thoroughness explains why last year
the concern increased Its sales $2,Ooo,oU
over those of the preceding year. the
largest gain for years business ever
made by any snoe house in the world Its
total sales of shoes for the year were
over 5000, 900.
The expanding business Of the house
forces it TO keep constantly building new
factories. Star Brand Shoes are only
six years old. but they are already
modern giant in public esteem.

leaders are In conference attempting to

but they appear powerless to do So The
delegates to the convention have taken
things into their own hands. and with
practical nnaninity. y.-they decline to be
delivered by the men at the head OF the
organization. The only change in the
situation today resulted In . slight adj
vantage to attorney General Hamiin On
iastic followers made an attempt to stam-
pede the convention to him. They failed
however on the next ballot he lost l3
votes which had gone to him. The last
ballot taken resulted as follows:

Hamlin, 1S5 As; Warner. s. 4-5; Sher-
man, 49: Pierce, 2l.
The scenes attending the convention
were similar to those OF the previous
day, and the demonstrations in favor OF
the various candidates were calculated
to sweep a less deliberate gathering
from its feet, but with every outburst
the determination among the delegate 20
resist anything in the way of stam-
pede became more pronounced. Chair
man Cannon, in begging the shouters to
desist, remarked:
Thank God this convention has shown
In two days session that its 1900 dele
