Hardknock Shoes fill a well defined
place in the economy of the home.
They are produced to be the best
and most practical popular priced
hard-wear shoe ever made.
That the Hardknocks fill the place
for which they are intended is evil
denced by the steadily increasing
demand.
All parents know that it is not
easy to find shoes that will stand
up to the hard wear given them by
an active boy. The boys bill is usu-
ally the largest bill in the family.
In the Hardknocks Shoe we have
combined the strongest wearing
feathers, the most thorough work
manship and our shoe experience
OF over a quarter of a century.

Atlantic City, N. j., Nov. 6.-Tho ID.
quest into the wrecked Pennsylvania
railroad electric train at Thorofare
drawbridge, In which more than fifty
persons lost their lives, was resumed to-
day by the coroner Of Atlantic county.
Great interest Is still conferred in the
investigation and large crowd was in
attendance when the first witness was
called.
Joseph Dangerfeld,, who lives near
nearby bridge when the wreck ocs
Cured. He said that Captain Kessler
Of the yacht Synbad, for which the
draw had been opened few minutes
before the train came along, had q
quarrel with Bridge-tender Steward
over opening the bridge. Witness said
he heard the captain say, "1,ll fix the
third rail-
!, Dangerfeld said he believed Kessler
meant he would have Steward dis
charged for alleged slowness in opening
the bridge. The witness said that the
train was travelling over the bridge at
higher rate Of speed than that Of many
other trains that had gone over it.
Lloyd Dyer, an assistant city cleo
trician, proved an interesting witness.
He said he had been employed on the
new electric railroad during the past
summer and several times noticed that
the. rail which Is believed to have
caused the wreck stuck. He had driven
it down himself several times. He did
not know what caused the rail to stick.

rest Of the state ticket will be elected
by, safe plurality.
There is no use claiming every
thing in sight, said he In his last for
NAL statement, $50 long as one is sure
Of the result. I might say the election
of Mr.. Hughes would be unanimous
with about as much reason as the 9th
er side makes its extravagant claims
for Hearst
More Of the newspapers have ceased
making polls owing to misleading re-
suits Of the canvasses they made in
1904 when Judge Parker was running
for president against Theodore Roose-
welt. The Herald. however, presents to-
day it's canvass made thruout the state,
which indicates that Mr.. Hughes will
have a plurality of about $4,000 in
6fty-seven counties outside Greater
New York "

The New York Herald. the New York
World and the New York Times predict
the election Of Charles E. Hughes, bas-
ing the claim upon their usual can
vases. Indeed, the entire republican
and independent press Of the city is
of the opinion that Hughes election is
most probable. .

loose on election day the food Of

| as is his wealth, Mr.. Hearst IS fortune

demands made upon him. He has spent
huge sum already and he must spend
a great deal more before the polls close,

Must Spend More.
This is the first time New York has
ever had personally conducted and
personally paid-for campaign for gov
ernor. Usually the campaign expenses

for governor costs one Of the big par
ties from 100000 to 100000. The
lower figure is cut rate and can only
be had when one side is SO absolutely
the pretense of contest. When vic
tory, or defeat may turn on a few thou
sand votes, the money goes out in
streams, and there has been state
campaign in which more than 100000
| was spent.
All the work that Mr.. Hearst has
done up. to this time and all of the
money that he has put out will be lost
# he does not spend from $4,000 to
1 $500, 900 on election day. There are
approximately 5000 election precincts
in the state Of New York; about $500
outside the metropolitan district and
about 1900 in the city. To 'man the
polls,' that is, to have watchers, vote
drummers and hack or two to bring
the halt, the blind and the lazy, there
ought to be an appropriation Of SAC
for each precinct. But Mr.. Hearst is
not likely to spend more than 500 or
an average per precinct; that would
mean 100000 for the day.

Washington, Nov. 5-The govern

eighth circuit, in which all the impor.
tant antitrust cases have been begun.
No matter what the circuit court may
do, there will be an appeal to the SUI
preme court Of the United States.
The action against the oil monopoly
will be civil because the attorneys for
the government want to have the right
to appeal to the highest court, and that
is something they could not have Wegs
against Rockefeller, Rogers and other
men prominent in the Standard COM
bination. Acquittal by the jury Of any

The thing most desired by the gov

To bring the Standard within the

Young girls having homes in Minneap-

delivery window Of the postoffice In such
numbers as to excite comment. The fact
that the greater number Of them visit
the postoffice in the afternoon and on
Saturday gives rise to the supposttion
that they are schoolgirls, and the hest
fancy with which many Of them call for
their letters suggests that the names used
are fictitious and the correspondence
clandestine. In the past much Of this
mail went, thru lockboxes, but owing to
the refusal of this service it has been
driven to the general delivery depart
