new CLOTHING STORE.
Felix s. Sons VIII Open for Business
Tuesday Morning.

A new Sentlemen's clothing and fur
nishing goods store will be opened to
the public in Topeka Tuesday morning
Felix & Sons have fitted up the store
room in the National hotel building
that was formerly occupied by the
Morrison jewelry store, and they Will
make bid for the patronage of the
clothing buying public.
At a heavy expense the prOprietOrs
have remodeled the store building and
have built unique display windows in
front. The front has been built to
form a lobby leading to the door, and
the big plate glass windows will give
ample room for purposes of display.
The interior of the store presents an
attractive appearance. Large cases
extend the whole length of the build
ing against the walls on both sides of
the room. Shelving is placed the
whole length of the room in the CEN
ter. and glass show cases are placed
in front of the shelving on either side.
The new store introduces an innova-
ton in the west in the manner of dis
playing the goods offered for sale. In
stead of piling all the clothing upon
counters. every coat is hung upon
cOat-hanger. The coats fill the cases
along the wallis on each side of the
room and are therefore at all times
open for inspection. Potted plants and
goods arranged in artistic displays are
placed above these cases.
Felix & Sons have stores at Ottawa
and Parsons. Kansas. They are wide
awake, progressive men, and no doubt
they will become factors in Topeka's
commercial life.

PERMITS REVOKED
Three Druggists Clash With
Orders of Probate Judge.
G. M. Hines, Fourth, Surren-
ders Permit to Sell Liquor.

Three permits to sell liquor in To-
peka drug stores revoked, and one
surrendered, was the record of the
shawnee county probate court this
morning
Clarence Young. Charles Kohl and
w. f. Lake We're tried and their per-
m1tS taken away. G. NJ Hines sur
rendered his. Henry Page was tried,
but because of the absence of q. wit
ness, his case was continued until
next week Some more evidence is
necessary to determine the owner
ship of the store.
The evidence against Kohl was OBJ
tanned from a raid made by the Of
fcers several months ago. Against
Young and Lake the evidence was of
the personal kind. meaning, that it
was obtained through t'spotting.'
Another important matter prevailed
in causing the revocatiOns. Some time
ago Probate Judge Hayden made q
ruling, which was printed in the news
city had been complained of. If within
the next two years he should be again
charged with selling liquor illegally
his permit would be taken away.
THAT applied to all three of the
cases this morning said Judge Hay
den, after rendering his decisions.
Young, Kohl and Lake had all been

in two years after once being
was given to them. Here
they all three were back again. I
meant what I said when I delivered
that rule, and enforced it against the
three druggists this morning, whose
permits I took away"
The trial of the cases occupied the
entire morning. County Attorney
Hungate conducted the prosecution.

CONGRESS ENDS.
Silver Loving Cup Presented
to Speaker Cannon.

Washington, March 4.-The house ad-
journed sine die today after a session
of less than two hours whose chief fea-
ture was the presentation of a massive
silver loving cup to Speaker Cannon by
the entire membership of the house and
a cup to John Sharp Williams by the
Democratic minority. Chairman Hem
enWay of the appropriations committee
made a statement that the total appro-
priations of the session were $697, 048, 104
and the estimated receipts for the next
fiscal year $685. SOC, SIS. There would be
no deficit he announced.
The chief feature of the senate's ses-
sion today was the induction into Office
of Vice President Fairbanks and the
swearing into office of quite number
of senators-elect, the new senators be-
ing Buckley Comm, Burkett (Neb),
Carter (Nont.). Dick (O). Flint (Cal.),
Hemenway Qnd). Nixon (Nev), Pyles
(Wash.), Sutherland (Utah), Taliafero

in were old senators who have been re-
elected. Senator Allison made his an
nual statement of appropriations. 1t
differed somewhat from the Republican
statement in the house of representa-
tives Mr.. Allison expressed the opinion
that the deficit for the fiscal year be-
ginning next July would be greater
than that for the current fiscal year.

lower than $1.O9. 1t is stated that
Rodgers failed to secure the contract
of supplying the brick in this years
contracts and that as consequence
he will enter a price at the next paving
that is let, that will insure him the
contract. He is quoted with saying,
THE people of Topeka think that
$1.09 is low but I will make a price
that will make that figure look like it
is mighty high
City Engineer McCabe stated today
with reference to a probable warfare
between the two brick com panies II
would advise those parties desiring to
secure paved streets to take advant-
age in the near future of this fight
which is liable to be brought on be-
tween the two companies. Now is a
good time to get together and decide
upon what you want done and how.
If the petitions can be entered in this
year the chances are that the petion-
ers will never again secure paving
done at so cheap price
A. A. Rodgers, when approached,
stated that he thought from the pres
ent appearance of things that the Cap
ital City company is about ready to IN
stitute war. He stated that was the
method and tactics which the rival
company always adopted and that it
is apparently endeavoring to bring
about at the present time. He an
nounced his intention of staying by
the fight and waging retaliatory meas
ures. He wouldn't assert his inten-
ton of starting the trouble himself.
The Capital City Vitrif1ed Brick
company denied any intention of start
ing fight on its own initiative and
said that if any war is brought about
it will have to come from the rival
company's camp. They acknowledged
that competition is brisk and very
close but wouldn't acknowledge that
they intended to freeze out the

BRICK WAR COMING.
Rival Companies Anxious to Secure
Paving Contracts.

From present indications a merry
war will be precipitated between the
two brick companies manufacturing
brick here in the city as soon as the
next contracts for paving come up
There are two brick companies do
ing business in the city at present.
They are known respectively as the
Capital City Vitrified Brick company
and the A A. Rodgers Brick company.
The former is the older and more ex-
tensive of the two plants, while the
latter has had something of a vicari-
Gus career under the hands of various
managers. L. Blackman was instru-
mental in first establishing the plant
some years ago and ran it for a. time,
it then went into the hands of J. S.
Earnest and from him it was finally
transferred to A. A. Rodgers. The
CAPITAL City Vitrif1ed Brick company
has always made competition inter
esting for the other company until the
rival organization was humbled when
prices were put back again close to
the point in force before the cut
price was inaugurated. 1t was largely
on account of this warfare. introduced
again, that the last contracts for
pavement were let for the low price
of S1.O9 per square yard, price
which has never been approached be-
fore in the paving annals OF the city.
The price at which paving has been
let as rule has been around $1.23-
S11S per square yard. At that price
it has cost the contractor in the
for the brick laid down at the place
of the paving. Under the present
figure of $1.09 the brick is costing the
contractor about IS cents per square
yard laid down.
