ENTERPRISING FIRM
NEW ESTABLISHMENT FOR W0-
MEMS GARMENTS.

Scarcely has there ever been a firm In the
city of Washington to enter business with
such bright prospects for future success
than has ]. L. Leverton & Co, the new
retail store which handles exclusive styles
In ladies' suitings and cloaks in their bright
new sales room at 1115 G street northwest
Last Monday was the opening day when
the new firm made its initial bow to the
ladies of the shopping public who form such
a large majority of the actual buyers of the
city, and when it Is actually known what
values the firm is placing before the
buying public in its line and the conscien-
tious treatment the buyer will receive in all
the dealings with the firm, then the success
of the firm for the future is assured. The
sales rooms have been fitted up under the
personal supervision of Mr.. J. l.. LeNerton
and the effect when one gets into the estab-
lishment is that they have stepped into
a place which is in itself place of artis
tic beauty and where one can procure goods
that show the effect of superb workman
ship. The especial idea in the minds Of
the new management is to offer to the
ladies of Washington exclusive styles in
ladies' suitings and cioaks that cannot be
found elsewhere in the city and where in
each particular they can be bought at
reasonable prices. The management does
not intend TO carry in stock at any time

TELEPHONE WIRES.
Citizens and District Officials Do Not
Agree

Continuous persistent efforts are being
made by the telephone company to erect
poles and wires on the streets and alleys
of Columbia Heights.
"COLUMBIA HEIGHTS CITIZENS AS

LAS far as the records of this office show
and my knowledge of the telephone COM
panys business extends, the company has
made no continuous persistent effort to
erect poles and wires on the streets of CO.
lumbia Heights.
walter C. ALLEN,
Electrical Engineer, D. c."
These two absolutely opposite statements
indicate the present status of a threatened
dispute between the Columbia Heights Cit
liens Association and the electrical depart
ment of the local government. The citi-
zens association started 1t when w. B.
Todd, the secretary, forwarded to the Com
missioners an extract from the report of
the association-the extract continuing after
the first sentence. quoted above. to describe
the defeat of the telephone company's eff
forts during the recess of the association by
the executive committee, aided by individual
citizens" 1t was also stated that the OPP
position to this overhead service is almost
universal among the residents of Columbia
Heights" and that the telephone and te,e-
graph companies should be made to place
their wires underground, both In the streets
and alleys
After denying the allegation that the COM
pany had made continuous efforts, ETC.
Electrical Engineer Allen stated that appli-
cations had been made from time to time
for the erection of poles and wires on streets
in Columbia Heights, but that only a few
of these requests were granted by the Com
missioners. The locations of five such poles
are given. 1t Is also stated that the Ches-
apeake and Potomac Telephone Company
has paid particular attention to the subdi-
vision of Columbia Heights in extending
their conduit lines much further than re-
quired by Congressman In taking down
poles on streets and placing them in alleys
as far as possible.
citizens association should request conduit
lines in alleys-and In this connection he
called attention to three communications
from the association in 1902, wherein the
location of poles IN alleys is apparently
favored.

who makes q purchase at the new store
can rest assured that the next few days
she appears upon the street she will not
be confronted by another woman with the
identical style of suit If the purchase was
made at the new store of Leverton q Co.
On the opening day there was quite a
crowd in attendance to witness the dis
play of exclusive goods and the business
which has been done during the past week
points much toward the success the new
firm is endeavoring to attain.
They desire to place before the wcHeu OF
this city the exclusive styles of several
firms of New York whose goods have never
been sold outside the cities of New York
and Boston. and which will consequently
appear In Washington for the first time
when shown by this firm. Mr.. Leverton
has arranged to be in New York each week
during the coming fall and winter season
and in this way the women of Washington
can rest assured that visit to the new
store will find the newest and latest
styles that have appeared upon the streets
of New York as the latest creations in
suitings and cloakings.
Perfect Arrangement.
The store is SO arranged that ladies trying
on the different suits and cloaks have suffi-
Client light to see that all the fittings are
perfect in every way. The establishment
Is fitted with a number of large skylights,
which, being delicately shaded, throw a
soft light into the rooms which is at once
pleasing to the eye.
The large cases on either side of the
sales rooms with their inlaid beveled-edged
mirrors and the number of palms about the
place, together with the beautiful blending
OF the decorations, impresses upon one the
fact that whoever was the originator of
this artistic beauty would no doubt be a
most careful buyer when the styles for
the women in the future seasons suits and
cloaks are concerned. And in this belief 1t
Is said one will not be disappointed, for
Mr.. Jesse l.. Leverton is who be-
leves in doing things, and when they are
being done he believes in doing them thor
oughly. He was born in the city of Balti-
more in 1873 and Is now consequently
thirty-two years of age. He Is the son Of
a retired sea captain, who, during the early
life of his son, was in command of trad
ing vessel with headquarters in Baltimore.
Mr.. Leverton, at the age of twelve years,
the business world and begin on the at
tered one of the large establishments in
Baltimore as an errand boy and gradually
worked himself up to the position of buyer
for the house in the suitngs and cloaking
department. After a number of years in
that city he came to this city and aided
in the establishment of Phillipsborn & Co,
the successful cloak house of this city.
In the conduct of the new store he Is
assisted by Mrs NJ. Brooks, one of the
best known sales women and buyers of
women's sutings and cloaks In this city,
who has charge of the sales women en-
ployed by the firm.
