Shoe Fashions.

In Paris they are wearing extra high
buttoned boots OF black satin, the satin
is openwork over the instep Under these
are worn stockings to match the frock.
There are also bronze boots with very
high heels and bronze buttons.
Neither Of these shoes are of much use
to walk in. but at least they are as SER
viceable as the black patent leather pumps
which Americans wear. indoors and out,
on all dress occasions.
Suede boots are stir in the height Of
favor, in spite of several serious objec-
tions TO them. They are expensive. and
they are not very serviceable, since they
both rub and stretch.
The cloth shoe is now considered very
smart, however, and it costs less than
suede.
These new boots are being made Of
both serge and cravenette.
They are more easily cleaned than the
soft leather, and they are easier on the
foot
Some Of the models are black and some
gray.
Many are quite plain, while others have
the seams outlined with silk braid.

The pension is TO amount to s95 a
month and TO be comenced Immediately
after the agreement is adopted. To do
this however, each of the $4,000 mem
bers would be asked to pay two cents a
day additional to what they are having
into the department at the present time.
The amount received for the first years

nuation fund. The amount received daily
after the first year will be set aside in
paying the pensions and any money left
over together with the interest on the con-
tribution on the first year. to be added
as new principal each succeeding year.
II is further planned to have the PEN
sion of $25 increased S every three years

The plans provide that any member Of
the association may be pensioned at the
age OF sixty years, when incapacitated

ing been in the service for thirty years.
Al the age of seventy years the retire

PRESS OF ENEMY
Anti-cIerlcaIs Attack Ecclesiastical
Doctrine of Power Of Virgin Mary.
Object to SO Many
Holidays

GUADALAJARA, April 3.-Arch-
bishop Ortiz and the priests Of the
Catholic church here have declared
open war against the anti-clericals
here, the latter of whom are seeking
to belittle the power of the Virgin
Mary.
Anti-clerical newspapers charged the
priests with manufacturing appari-
tions" in order to frighten the people
into believing the Virgin Mary was ap-
pearing at various places.
The archbishop in d sermon defended
the doctrine of miracles and abjured
all members of the church to remain
firm in their faith.
The attacking paper was supported
by two other newspapers, and in re-
taliation the clericals started boy
colt against all three publications, and
In addition posted pointed placards on
houses throughout the town bearing the
following inscriptions:
Honor and glory to Virgin Mary;
no impious paper received in this
house.
Further to confuse the churchmen the
newspapers have now begun a crusade
against what they term the excessive
number of church holidays observed In
the republic. They assert that of the
365 days in the year 1853 are observed as
church holidays.

Fort Worth valued at from $2,500,OOO
to $4,000, 900, caused the death of one
person, ]. j. Newton of Krum, Texas,
and rendered several thousand per-

The fire originated at Jennings ave-

Spreading to the south it burned its
way through thirty-two blocks ana

road, destroying the railroad buildings
and a large amount of rolling stock,

Three churches, the Broadway Bap-

chapel, were among the buildings de-
stroyed, as was the Presbyterian san
itarium.
The patients of the latter were all

WHEAT GOES UP;
FIRM COLLAPSES
JOHN DICKINSON & co. FORCED
TO THE WALL
Sensational Advance of Prices for
May Delivery EcIipses High Mark
Attained in Memorable
Gates Deal
tBy Associated Press.l

CHICAGO, April Announcement
was made on the board of trade today
of the suspension of the firm of John
Dickinson & Co., grain, stock and pro-
vision brokers.
In addition to its membership on the
board of trade, the company also held
membership on the Consolidated stock
exchange of New York.
The firm also had from twenty-five TO
thirty offices scattered throughout the
country. The liabilities were said to
be in the neighborhood of $25O,000.
According to ]. I. Murphy, manager
of the Chicago Office, the firm has been
doing a good business here, but the
trouble, he said. grew out of the stock
business in the east.
He stated that Mr.. Dickinson, who is
now In New York, had wired him that
the suspension was only temporary,
and that 1t was expected the firm would
be doing business against in month.
Wheat for May delivery overtopped
the high point of $1.211s, reached in the
celebrated Gates deal in 1905, when 1T
sold on the board of trade today at
$122A per bushel.
Only twice during the last twenty
years has wheat sold at higher figure
on the local exchange.
In October, 1888, the price reached
$1231a, and again in May, 1898, during
the Letter campaign mark of $1.221s
was established.
