Ladies' Furs

We have some of the best values
in Ladies' Separate Furs and Fur
Sets that we were ever able to show,
which includes all the seasons popu
lar Furs.
In the cheaper Furs, which are
serviceable and prove good values,
are the Opossum, Wolf, Dog and
Cony.
These come in good range of
the seasons best styles at from
$500 up to $1,000.
The Brook Mink are finished so
well that they look almost like the
Mink, and the prices are very reason
able. The service is equal to the
real Eastern Mink.
The Fox Fur is more popular than
ever, the natural color being as pop
ular as last season. The Sabel and
Isabella Fox come in some very good
blends. The Black Fox is especially
strong this season.
The Natural Raccoon is a Fur that
has been one of the leading Furs
and are just as popular as usual
and for service they cannot be sur
passed.
The Brook Mink is Fur that we
will guarantee for service, and the
blend and finish are almost like a
Mink.
The Maribou Fur is soft, fine
finished Fur that has service and
looks like Fur you would pay dou-
bic the price for. These come in the
new popular Gray and Black.
The Mole Fur is very popular and
is a Fur that will give good service.
The Opossum Furs are exception
ally good and have better finish
than in any previous season. These
are the Fur that give extra service.

CUBA,S PRESIDENT
MAKES POPULAR MOVE
Revocation Of Harbsr Dredging Con
tract Approved BY.
PEOPLE.

Latest advices from Cuba show that
the entire country approves Of the de-
cision Of President Mario Menocal in re-
voking the condemned, concession of the
much discussed "Dragado." Congratula-
tons have been received by the Presi-
dent from all sections Of the island and
even from other countries for his ac-
ton in cancelling the contract for the
dredging Of the harbor. Liberals and
Conservatives alike. in short. members
Of all political parties. have nothing but
words OF praise for the Chief Executive
Of the Island. while the press editorially
favors his action.
It is claimed that the company was Or
ganixed by persons possessing little capt.
tai and that $10000.cO0 have been distrib-
uted. with very little to show for this
vast amount.
The action taken by President Menocal
has made him very popular with his
people, who believe that in the future
it will. be very difiicult for any political
deal to be put over unless it has been
thoroughly investigated and approved by
the people. 1t is claimed that the death
blow has been given to all graft and
that 1t will be impossible to make any
more such deals as that Of the "Dragada''
affair. President Menocars courage and
honesty are well known by Cubans gen.
orally, and his action is SO popular that

CLEVER THIEVES MAKE
LARGE HAUL IN NICE
By Boring Through Wall and Safe
They Get Away with
ValuabIes.

Special Gable to The Washington Herald.
Nice, Aug. 16.-For many years this
town has been growing SO fast in siz
and Importance that the average seasons
visitor has little idea of the numerous
gangs OF Continental thieves who now
make it their happy hunting ground in
season and out of season.
Recently they put their expert skill to
a test with, for them, the most happy
results. In the summer months the
Niceis are not very vigilant Business is
slack, and the heat precIldes much activ-
ity in the commerce.
Equipped with their usual advance in
formation and knowledge of the locale, a
gang of thieves broke into the cellar of
a house in the Avenue de la Care the
principal street in Nice, leading direct to
the Avenue Massena and the Promenade
des Anglais. Here, by an ingenious
method, they made their way through to
the floor above, and thus obtained access
to a lace establishment contiguous to a
well-known jewelers. shop.
There they held a council of war. and
decided to cut hole in the masonry
separating the two shops They had still
one more formidable obstacle, namely, to
overcome the safe. But their ingenuity
was not at fault even there. By means
of blow-pipe they eventually succeeded
in abstracting over 100000 worth of jew
elry through the aperture thus made, re-
moving the precious gems one by one
They got away with their booty without
detection.

London. Aug. 16.-England is troubled
by the superior conditions of lower-deck
life in the United States Navy as COM
pared with the British.
The Admiralty has decided to send a
board consisting of Vice Admiral Will
liams, Fleet Surgeon Munday, and E.
n. Mooney, of the Royal Corps of Naval
Constructors, to spend six weeks in
America, chiefly at Newport and the
New York Navy Yard.
They will begin with studying the sys-
TEN of ventilation in United States battle
ships.
The visit ought to have practical results
for British sailors. The. Orion class carry

DON'T CARE FOR TURKS ART.
Turkey Can't Rinse Cash ON Her
Pictorial Gems.

Special Cable to The Washington Herald.
London, Aug. 16.-Turkey has been Try.
ing to raise a loan in London, offering
as security the antique treasures in the
Imperial Museum at Constantinople.
The security evidently is not apprecict-
ed, for so far the loan has not material
lied.
That Turkey is willing to pledge her
treasures proves how dire are her finan-
cial straits, for the Imperial Museum is
one of her most jealousy guarded ros-
sessions.
The Turkish government has increased
the collections without cost. as archaeolo-
gists have been allowed to work in the
Holy Land only on condition that they
sent their finds to the museum.

DOES ARM COUNT IN LOVE. ;
Question Raised Whether Man MUS

Special Gable to The Washington Herald.
London, Aug. 16.-Should a man keep
his promise to marry a woman who has
accidentally lost an arm? This question
is raised by a Flintshire jury's award of
s105 damages for breach of promise to a
girl whose sweetheart contended that, as
she had lost an arm in a railway accident.
she was incapacitated from becoming the
wife of a workingman.
The Rev. Hugh Chapman. of the Chapel
Royal, Savoy, took the mans view.
"Of what use would crippled woman
be in a workingman's homer" he asked.
He has to work for his living. and he

The octogenarian says he is owner of

to prosecute his claim because Of cor

government to send troops to Buffalo to
