SEASONS MILLINERY
DEMANDS MUCH HAIR
FANCY FIxINGs ARE NECESSARY
WITH NEW HATS
coIors Are Daring, but Well Arranged,
Is the Verdict of the Head of the
Millinery Department of the
Boston Store

Miss Worth, head of the millinery de-
rartment of the Boston store, has just
returned from New York, where she
went to pick out some of the latest i'm
ported models for the spring opening
to be held Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day of this week.
Miss Worth returns not only with a
lot of exclusive styles in millinery, but
also with many new ideas which will be
of interest to Los Angeles women.
"They tell me that over in Paris they
are selling hair by the yard, and l
really believe it is true, judging by the
hats this year." said she.
"There never were such attractive
STYLES and they all have to be worn
with lots of hair. The bando which
played such an important part in last
years hats is not nearly so much IN
evidence this year and in its place is
hair-puffs and rolls and everything
else in the hair line.
"Leghorns are to be worn much this
season and some of the styles in these
are exquisite. The color combinations
would be startling If they were put to-
gether by anyone but French woman,
and we can not deny that the French
are daring.
"Bankof hats are to be very good
style this season. Inc straw reSeInplSs
the panama and some of the shapes are
very becoming. This model in white
straw with black velvet facing is one
that is very stylish" and she exhibited
what any woman might be pardoned fol
calling "a perfect love of hat"
Sulphur shades are to be much worr
and many of the hats, in fact the ma
iority OF them, have plumes to match
The ostrich plumes and pompons are
far more beautiful than any ever pro
duced and there is no limit to th'
amount of money which can be ex
pended on feathers.
"Copenhagen and Japanese blue ar'
also very popular, and in fact blues o.
all kinds are good. Everything has {
touch of pink and some Of the most at
tractiVe of the French hats combine
all the pinks and reds there are in Z
way that would be very startling Il
attempted by a hand less masterfu
than the French. Empire and tricoI
shapes are very good style and many
of the. best hats roll off the face just
| little"

WANT MORE COLLEGE MEN
Railway Operation Now Becoming a
Distinct Profession

Special to The Herald.
PHILADELPHIA, March 12.-More
college-trained men are wanted in the
service of the Pennsylvania railroad,
and steps are being taken to obtain
them.
The company's tremendous improve
ments in New York and great extern
sions all along it's lines have created
new positions which must be filled by
engineers and operating officials of
ability and judgment.
Some employees who have not had
technical training will, of course rise
from the bottom to the top-because
some men can't be kept down. But,
other things being equal, the man who
has gone through a regular course of
training is the one who will do the rail-
road most good.
1t is the Pennsylvania policy to en-
ploy college men almost exclusively for
certain branches of the operating and
engineering departments. This and the
fact that the graduate receives enough
pay at the beginning to support him
have proven powerful inducements to
the sort of workers the company wants

BIRTHDAY TODAY

Mayor A. c. Harper is Al years

Friends who know of the fact
have arranged to drop in at the

There will probably be a great
deal of handshaking in the execu-

The park department, which
daily sends big bouquet to the

HIGHLAND PARK WOMEN
TO BUILD A CLUB HOUSE

A woman's club in which the men of
the community are as deeply Interested
as the women is the unusual organiza-
tion at Highland Park.
1t is the Highland Park Ebel club, or
ganized about three years ago by a
dozen women, who met at the home of
one of the members for study.
The club now has nearly 100 members,
who take an active part in all civic
movements, have several study sco-
tions and social features and are con-
templating building a club house to
cost in the neighborhood of $4,000.
A lot has been purchased upon which
the building is to be erected, and at
meeting yesterday morning G. w. e.
Griffith, president of the Highland Park
bank, addressed the women and urged
them to carry on the work they have
begun.
THE men of Highland Park believe
that this club is the best thing for the
community that could possibly be. We
want you to undertake to build your
club house and to build a good one.
We stand ready to help. Aim at some
thing big and you will get it. We are
unanimous in our favorable feeling to-
ward the organization and believe it is
one of the greatest attractions to people
contemplating making their homes
here"
The morning was devoted to the cur
rent events section in charge of Mrs.
Jane M. Beatty, who discussed affairs
of the day.

DERATED SERGEANT TYLER
GETS SHIELD RESTORED
POLICE BOARD DIsPosEs OF AN
ANCIENT CASE
Trouble Arose Over Alleged Arrogance
of the Official While Serving at
Observation-Disclosures to With
draw Suit for Back Pay

Former Desk Sergeant J. w. Tyler
day by the police commissioners after
series OF contentious, opinions and
reviews of his now celebrated case.
In September, 1904, in the days of
Chief Hammel, Tyler was ousted. 1t
was said that he was arrogant while
performing his duties and charges were
drawn up for deratement.
Before the case was called Tyler was
unofficially told that the commissioners
had made up their minds to derate him
and he had better take the hint and
submit. He waived his hearing and
was put on a beat as patrolman. He
served until four months ago.
Afterward Tyler asked reinstatement
to his old job as sergeant. Month
after month he has appeared before
the civil service commission, which,
like the city attorney decided that the
Hammel commission should have trieo
Tyler on the charges or else put him
back as sergeant. In the meantime
he was serving as patrolman, and to
get legal status he brought suit
against the city for back salary.
Some days ago the civil service COM
mission finally recommended that Tyler
be put back to work If the police COM
mission saw At to do so. Tyler mean
while forfeits four months pay
Mayor Harper asked Tyler what the
charges were, but he hesitated about
going into details.
Chief Kern was asked whether he
would consent to put Tyler back.
II am not familiar with the charges
but we always want good men," said
he.
Commissioner Hub" Lewis was on
the police commission that derated Ty-
Ter and DR.. Edelman was on the civil
service commission which first heard
the case. Both OF these men are now
| serving again ON Harper commissions

EVIDENCE IS NOT
STRONG ENOUGH
NO ARREST MADE IN H0EGEE
ROBBERY
Detectives Convinced They Know the
Identity of the Thief, but
Are Not Yet Ready for
Rk3 Final Action

! las Dawson, erstwhile manager
GN. H. Hoegee company, is out
eb.
al notification was sent him
day by A. Hartman, secretary OF
olnpany, that his services were nc
'required.
sons discharge came as result

ago last Saturday of over $17OC
from the desk of the secretary,
flee adjoined that occupied by
aiager.
Two evidence as to identity of
ief has not been discovered.

't ca Of sickness and in the mean
Ii. Captain of Detectives Flammer,
with two of his men, are at work on
the case and have knowledge of Daw-
sons movements.
1t is said that the proprietor of the
store and the detectives are confident
in their own minds as to the identity
of the thief, but that the evidence Is
not sufficiently strong to warrant an
arrest.
The detectives would like very much
to find trace of Dawson's overcoat, for
there is a possibility, they say, that in
the pockets of this garment may be
found the greater portion of the stolen
money.
Say Insider Did the Job
Dawson claims that when he left the
store, a few minutes before the theft
of the money was discovered, he took
the overcoat with him, but that he inn
mediately returned and threw it on
top of the safe in the secretary's office
then continued through the store and
went out by the rear entrance.
Many of the clerks in the store say
they saw Dawson leave the store by
the front door and that he had his
overcoat on his arm, but none of the
employees saw the manager return and
proceed the entire length of the store
a full block, to the rear entrance.
Detectives say that there is ample
proof that the theft was done by some
one who entered and left the office
through the store and that while the
job evidently was thoroughly thought
out before the theft was committed
the robber was very much of an anna
teur in that line of work.
Fred c. Hartman said yesterday thai
Dawson's discharge was due to the
fact that the managers services fol
some time had not been at all salts
factory principally for the. reason tha
he had frequently absented himseli
from work, but that inquiry since th'
theft as to Dawson's conduct aftel
business hours developed the fact tha
he had been leading rather fast life
Mr.. Hartman said that Mr.. Dawson
might be able to explain some circum
stances which would tend to cast sus
picion upon the former manager II
connection with the theft of the money
but that as yet he had failed to do so.

loss estimated at between so, 900 and

The cause Of the fire has not yet

have been stray spark from one Of
the chimneys lodging near the cupola
Of the main building. BY the time the
apparatus of the fire department
reached the scene, which is four miles
from the nearest fire station, the flames
had made great Roadway. The fire

ing very small. The destroyed portion
of the plant included five one-story
wooden buildings of the regulation
foundry type. The loss is partially COW
