SHOE STYLES.

Fancy shoes of many kinds are now
shown, among others being a low shoe
of gam metal kid, with numerous straps
and dull buttons. Patent feathers COM
bined with yacht cloth tops make de-
sirable shoes for summer wear. The
dark colors of tan, lighter a shades
and ox-blood are alo seen. White
shoes, as yet, have little attention
bestowed upon them. Where colors
run riot, it is noticeable that the
combination is with patent leather. the
tops being suede or thin cloth. Both
button and laced low shoes are fash
ionable. The Cuban heel remains a
favorite.

A force of 5000 men was secured at an expense of $5,000 to the city. When the time for the parade arrived. the streets were clean as a floor.
 Looking from the window when tbe two presidents arrived, all that could be seen was a closed carriage and one silk hat. The parade was three honr~ many companies didn't march. The crack Seventh regiment of New York reached Washington at night and fn- sisted upon marching over the course in the night, their spirited music tes- tifying to the fact. The IndianaDoIis regiment was delayed by the storm and marched next day.
 The Philippine band, called "Taft's band" which came on in honor of him marched in the parade. and on Satur day afternoon, March 6. gave a fine concert in the pension building
 When the open carriage of President Taft appeared the cheering was tre- mendous. The president and his wife responded with bows, both smiling genialiy.

 In the moving picture line the big attraction is the film showing the In auguration of President Taft, which gives to the stay -at-homes an in- structive showing Of the events of March 4th. This thoroughly up-to- date film shows the blizzard condi- tions existing in Washington at the time of the inauguration, bodies of in fantry, calvary and artillery are seen in parade. there are views of the principal government buildings and the presideut-t be is seen as he bows to the crowd before the inaugural cere- mohy, and afterwards as he drives away in his carriage. 1t is almost al good as attending the Inauguration.

Connecticut Company Has Cleaned Up Saehem ParIe--Luety Find by George Rathbun on Newton Farm.

For the past several months the Con necticut company has been gradually removing their property from Sachem Park, which Is now owned by St. Pat rick's parish. The company has used the park as a storing place for it's track materials, such as rails, paving blocks, etc. In the pavilion were kept track bolts. spikes, salt and sand. These have been taken elsewhere. and on Monday the final steps of vacating were taken, when the spur track and overhead wires were removed. The Connecticut company's lease expires April IS.
 The present owners bought the prop erty for use as a cemetery but for the present no plans have been made to use the property for this purpose. It is probable that one of the first things done will be the tearing down of the pavilion.
