lions SECRET SHIPMENT.
100000 Worth of Lace Sent Away on
Special Train.

Chicago, Feb. 15.-Carefully guarded
with the greatest possible secrecy
twenty-nine boxes of lace. said to be
valued at $4,000, were carted from Zion
City to Waukegan, seven miles, early
Saturday, and at . o'clock put aboard
the special express of the Chicago &
Milwaukee Electric railroad, and with
still greater secrecy the boxes were hur-
ried into Chicago.
The reason for the secrecy is not
known, and neither can it be figured out
why this method of shipment to Chi
cago was followed, as usually shipments
of all kinds are consigned to the Amer
lean Express company on the North
western road at Zion City.
The electric line does not operate past
midnight, and a special arrangements
had to be made some time previously.
This move on the part of Zion officials
is taken by lace makers and others as
indicative of some coming trouble. It IS
the talk of Zion by those who CHANGED
to hear of it.

that he found tina a dray had been to

Mr.. Evans, who withdrew in 1884. For
four years he remained with the store
in Topeka and at that time went to
Arkansas City, taking charge of the
branch house which had been incor-
porated under the name of Ranney-
Alton & &c. The members of the Park
hurst-Davis firm are the controlling
stockholders in his establishment and
Mr.. Ranney is a large holder of the
stock of the Topeka institution. After
the withdrawal of Mr.. Alton Roy Ran
ney, a son, took al interest in the
store and is now a member of the firm.
The Ranney Alton house was estab-
lished in 1888. In 1898 a branch house
was established in Mcpherson, Kansas,
to look after the wholesale trade in the
middle portion of Kansas. ]. c. Petro,
formerly of Topeka, is manager of that
branch. The ParkhurSt-DaviS p
has a house at Hutchinson, established
in 1902, and one at Emporia started a
year or so later. Much of the trade of
the company is with the southwest and
it has been in this direction that tho
most important growth of recent years
has taken place.
Since the removal of the store to the
has occupied about the same location A
large three story structure served its
needs until 1895, when the building, was
remodeled. The magnificent building
which burned two lays g was opened
in 1901. Until June, 1904, the business was
under the firm name of Park

Co, the company Including the various
men who were taken in as the business
grew. In 1894 the Parkhurst-Davis Mer-
camille company was Incorporated at the
pany.
The heads Of the firm are still men in
the full vigor of business life. Mr.. Park
Al. They propose to conduct their busi-
ness as best they can in rented rooms
until the burned structure can be re-
placed, probably with a larger and finer
building than before.
The Parkhurst-Davis Mercantile COM
pany has educated a greater number of
capable young men from their first clerk
hood to their graduation as successful
statesmen or managers than any other
Topeka business institution. The success
of the business is probably due in great
measure to the wisdom of selection
of employees and to the policy of keeping
and adequately rewarding aluable men.
