Busy Men in The City Candy
Factories as Holiday Approaches

to pure foods few years ago, there
was reaction in favor Of homemade
stuffs. This reaction was felt in the
candy business until the candy manu-
facturers took hold cf the vogue for
homemade candy and began Turning
out candies called homemade This
kind Of "home-made-bought" candy
is perhaps at the present the most
popular on the market, and enormous
quantities of the rough-lOoking chOc-
olates and tinted bonbons have been
turned out for the Christmas rush
There are few new ideas worked
out in the most expensive candies
this Christmas, but all the stores have
laid ina beautiful stock OF fancy
boxes and baskets for the attractive
packing of the sweets.
Gorgeous cases of heavy brocade.
with elabor-te embroidery in gold
and silver and colors, are filled with
candy and afterward are to be found
on the dressing table and I'm the bou-
doir. Sometimes the new wick
er baskets are used to pack candy
in. They will be decorated now with
a Japanese spray of cherry blossoms
mounted on the lid or perhaps tied
with a huge bow of red ribbon and
bit OF artificial holly Candy given
in receptacles OF this kind is a double
gift, for the box or basket is useful
lons after the candy is gone and for
gotten.
Among the prettiest conceits for
candy packing are the Dresden doll
pincushions. The daintily dressed
dolls whose petticoats serve as pin
cushions are mounted on boxes con
cealed beneath their skirts which can
be filed with candy
There are the r~~~' c@n'o Claus
boxes, the hollow snowballs, chimneys
and other novelty hoide~a IN colo hut

RIVER DEEP
ENOUGH FOR
ANY WARSHIP
Colonel Zlnn Says Largest
DreadnOueht Could Come
Up the Delaware
NOW AFTER IS
FOOT WATERWAY

Colonel linn of tie United States
Army. in charge OF the channel and
other harbof work along the Delaware
River and Bay, yesterday expressed the
opinion that philadelphia's channel inn
provements could readily be extended,
and at nominal cost, 80 as to keep pace
with any development that might be
made in the construction of monster
naval dreadnonghts. "philadelphia now
has channel OF 80 feet in depth from
the city to the Breakwater, and we hope
in the near future to be able TO have
a 35-foot channel he said. "As far
as / know the 30-foot channel is deep
enough TO accommodate the largest
battleship ahoat ! do not know of any
naval vessel drawing much more than
2S feet. and we now have 30 feet
draught of water at low tide At high
tide the draught isabout five feet more"
When his attention was called to a
statement from Washington that the
new battleship Texas, when loaded and
with all her equipment on board, could
not steam up the Delaware on account
G. there not being sufficient depth OF
water he said he thought such a state
lieyed that vessel OF the size and
draught of the Texas could negotiate
the channel in the Delaware without
any difficulty.
Asked II there Were any natural OBJ
stacles in the way of deepening and
widening the delaware River channel
Colonel Zinn replied: "Ihere are no in
surmountable natural obstacles TO the
building of any sized channel that is
likely to be needed in the Delaware. The
digging is easy and comparatively mex
pensive The material is mostly sand
and soft mud and can readily be pump
ed There is very little rock or other
hard substances to be removed. In
crossing Schooner Ledge for the 3O-foot
channel some rock was encountered. But,
when the plans were made for the 35-
foot channel we found that by throwing
the channel over TO the eastern side OF
the river little further we would not
have any rock to remove So the new
and deeper channel, at this particular
point. will be closer to the New jersey
shore. This will give two channels at
this point"

WATER is FREE BAD KANSAS FIRE
Missouri Pacific Depot and Five
Cars Burn.
Trunks Containing JeweIry
Worth $4,000 in Flames.

Concordia, Kan, April Fire de-
stroyed the Missouri Pacific depot,
freight and baggage depots and five
loaded boxcars Saturday night. The
fire started at 2 o'clock and the large
frame depot was built of white pine,
and the fire company could not do
much but protect other buildings near
by. During the three hours in which
the buildings were burning the Santa
Fe depot caught on fire and other
buildings were in danger all the time.
The loss on the depot will be close to
$4,000 and the contents was just as
much, and included baggage. freight
and other shipments.
The diSpatcher'S office was complete
1y destroyed, together with contents.
The origin of the fire is unknown
A move will now be started for a
union depot and all the depots of the
four roads are within a block of each
other and they cannot accommodate
the traffic half of the time.
A travelling salesman by the name of
Moore, representing the Elliott jewelry
house of st. Louis, has also learned
that his trunks, containing $25, 900
worth of jewelry, were burned in the
fire which destroyed the Missouri Pa
cific depot. Only a portion of the
jewelry has been recovered. 1t was
partly covered by insurance.
The officials of the railway company
had a large number of men at work
here all day. A temporary depot and
dispatcher's office has been made of
coaches and freight cars. Service will
not be interfered with in any way on
account of the fire, except west of here.

giving his name as E. NJ. Gillespie,
was allowed to accompany her hus-

The woman told Detective German,
who made the arrest, that they were
married at Dodge City five weeks ago.
They came to Wichita two weeks ago,
and her husband had been hunting for
work.
Her father is proprietor of a hotel

But Kansas Land Owners Not
Willing to Use 1t.
May Import Foreigners to
Teach Irrigation Value.

Dodge City, Kan. April 7.-Water
free for the asking but not lana
owner willing to irrigate, is the pecu-
liar situation along the old SouIe often
in Gray and Ford counties. Manager
J. w. Gilbert, of the ditch company,
thinks he will have to import foreign
ers from the east to show Kansas
farmers the value of irrigation. Last
fall Mr.. Gilbert offered water rights
absolutely free to those owning land
under the ditch if they would use 1t
till April 1 of this year. Eight to ten
thousand acres could have been sup
piled with all the water it could hoIo
during the winter but not a farmer
responded. The offer was made 10
prove the value of winter irrigation
and the ditch company was willing to
wait till next fall to let the crops show
good results. The manager has APP
pealed to eastern stockholders to adopt
a plan he has promulgated to bring IN
foreigners, furnish them with both
land and water free and show Amerl-
can farmers how to raise crops.
american land owners are divided
into four classes" said Mr.. GILBERT
Local capitalists who prefer extensive
farming to intensive farming because
there are fewer tenants to look AFTER.
Eastern capitalists who purchase lana
merely for speculation and are not in
a position to give intensive farming
by irrigation personal attention Big
resident farmers who believe in farm
ing thousands of acres and raising
wheat entirely and small resident
farmers who are too poor to buy teams
and equipment to take advantage OF
water rights, even if furnished free.
"Kansans are too prodigal with lana.
They see so much of it they do not
value it accurately. Foreigners are
different. In overcrOwded countries
every foot of land is made to grow
something. That is why foreign farm
ers grow rich in this state alongside
American farmers. Russians and Ger
mans are making good in the Kansas
Colorado Argansas river valley. They
make more money from 40 acres than
American farmers do from four sec
lions and 1 propose to bring in several
colonies, give them water free and land
at cost on long time payments to teach
Americans a lesson in real crop Gull
ture. This is the only way the ditch
can be made of value to western Kan
sas We have nearly a quarter of a
million dollars ready to spend in irri-
CATION enlargement but it would not
be good business policy to touch a cent
of it until We can import farmers who
will demonstrate the value of irriga-
ton"
