PARIS POLICE
SEARCH HOUSES.
-------.-------------------------
Purpose Was to Uncover an Ex-
tensive Plot Against Pub
lie Security.
ARlST0CRATS WERE INCL UDED
The Investigation Caused u sensation
In Labor and Royallst
Circles.

Paris, April 27--The widespread
labor agitation took dramatic turn to-
day when the police executed series
OF wholesale searches designed to UNI
earth an extensive plot against the
public security. The searches includ-
ed the offices of branches OF labor fed
Grafton and homes OF labor leaders,
prominent royalists and Bonapartists
and also a number of anarchists. The
suspects among the royalists and
Bonapartsts included the heads OF
several aristocratIc families, among
them Count Duran de Beauregard'
Count de la Reggie. Gen. Baron de
Taradel, NJ. Bacconnier. president Of
the Royalist Advance Gaard; M. Thou
yenel, an intimate friend Of Prince
Louis Napoleon, and Maj, Feuillent,
formerly commander OF the Imperial
Guard while the laborites who were
subject to search included the cOnspic-
uous heads OF the movement planned
for May 1.
The ostensible purpose of the
searchers was TO discover II encourage
ment nad Deen given 10 flotlnS W tno
mining district in the north; but the
authorities expected al the same time
to uncover the entire plan Of the pres
ent labor agitation, including any mem
aclng feature OF the demonstration
which is to take place May !. The
searches were operated simultaneously
early IN the morning. The results In
many cases were negative. There Is,
however official authority for the
statement that documents were found
which proved that Royalists and Bona
partists intrigued with the labor
leaders and literally financed the row
olutionary strike movements. Tho
labor federation has refused to hand
over its books TO the police. The
search caused sensation In labor and
Royallst circles. In the former they

What Does This Store
 Mean To You?

Many things more than mere merchandise selling, we hope. First of al it should be your friend. You should feel that you can come here with your undeveloped plans, whether for home furnishing and beautifying or for personal dress, and find instant, sympathetic re- sponse and helpful, expert sug- gestions. In some sense it should be mentor bringing from Paris, from London, from the fashion marts abroad and at home, the newest and best merchandise that money can procure. You should feel it to be your Store-yours as much as ours-a place of recreation, of rest, of refreshment, to command at your will; an ever-changing fashion garden, sto which you have a continuous invitation and in which you may ramble and pluck or not, at pleasure. These things it should be to you and more if our constant striving for betterment produces the bestlresuts.

The Mandates of
 Fashion

This store, with it's connections in all the market centers of the old world, the use of the cable, the steamships and railroads, brings Paris and all Europe to your very door. The worlds newest and best for street car fare, in place of years time and very long purse. But it's more, for here you get blending of all that fashion dictates in the European capitals with all that's best of American thought of dress. And so Dame Fashion shares interest with every thing throughout the store. But it's a power, the largest part of which is almost latent, as far as advertising is concerned-a reserve force which acts directly on your presence. Thus you find a mag netlSm from worth, interest and fashion instruction which touches you on every visit, of which we can but hint in our news columns. As for the economical side, Monday never laid bare a greater array of opportunities for the cheap buying Of merchandise. The prices will be found relentless in their desire to attract.

MISUSE OF RELIEF FUNDS.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 81
Enraged because DR.. DeVine, late
head of relief work, will partake of
choice banquet which his admirers
will provide at the ST Francis to-
night, prior to his departure for the
east, a demonstration will be made in
front of the banquet hall by the refu-
gees headed by Mrs. Mary Kelly The
refugees claim that the
cost of the banquet will be paid out
of relief funds while many refugees
are suffering for necessities. On the
other hand it is implied that DR.. De-
vine has aroused the indignation of
some refugees by his campaign to Oust
what he calls the whole bodied loaf
ers." Dr. DeVines admirers say they
are paying for the testimonial out of
their own pockets. At the banquet a
handsome loving cup will be presented
to the late commissioners.
