Chicago IL providing. generously and

ter year by year and they compare
favorably with those Of other large cities
Their value cannot be overestimated as
molders Of the children Of many races
into Americans. No other social agency
is so powerful in the formation Of cit
liens. What the children in the public
schools learn from each other an well as
from their teachers has much to do with
what they think and do in later years
In the public school they stand on that
footing Of equality as individuals and as
competitors which Is essential to a re-

The Greater Store as a Fashion Centre

The new store is pre- eminently the fashion centre of the metro
poitan district. Indeed, why shouldn't it be? Is this not the newest
of the countrys great stores? Have not our buyers and commission
aires been conducting a six months world search Of new goods? Did
not our great removal sale, which is still fresh in the minds OF every
one, enable us to dispose of every dollars worth of surplus merchant
disc in the store which we vacated one week ago tomorrow night?
Have we not promised you repeatedly that the new store should be new
in everything but the policy? The new store is new-in construction,
in interior fittings, in stocks. The great new building gloriaes its
wares and is in turn glorifed by them. The great Gothic structure
with it's broad aisles and its rich appointments is a fitting resting place
for exquisite things in wearing apparel which our buying organizations
have gathered together with such discrimination and care. The beau
tul new store is a charming frame for the most lavish picture that
Newark ever gazed upon. If you have not yet visited Newark's great
style show, by all means do so Saturday.

and injured another, penetrated the
back and shoulder of the viceroy and
the screws with which the bomb was
filled which passed through his he'll
met.
The doctors who removed the metal
splinters from the wounds declared it
marvellous that the viceroy escaped
fatal injuries.
Lady Hardinge Immediately after
the explosion asked her husband if
he was hurt He replied: 4 am all
right. Go on
THOUGHT OF THE DEAD.
Lady Hardinge then said: We
can not! There is dead man be-
hind,"
The elephant on which they were
riding halted and the viceroy tried to
stand up, but reeled and tainted and
the officials who gathered around had
much difficulty in removing him from

basket of the viceroy's attendant, kill
ing him instantly. Several arrests
have been made. The bomb throwers

On arrival at the hospital the sur
geons found that the wound i'll the
! baron's shoulder was slight.

from the shock and it was found nee

been killed outright and another at
ttndant seriously wounded by frag
nents of the bomb
These ceremonies were interrupted
for only short period while the vice,
roy and Lady Hardinge We're being
conveyed to the hospital and vice
regal residence respectively.

front of the vice regal dais and read
aloud a dispatch from Baron Hard
inge, saying that he was only Slightly
Injured. The reading of the message
was received with prolonged cheering.

the British officials present, as he is
one of the most popular men who ever
ruled in India.
