 .'It was the first visit of John Me- Corn1aek to Adelaide, and he has left behind him record that will be hard to beat. Concert after concert the ad- miration increased, till it cuIninated in the greatest scene of enthusiasm ever witnessed in a concert hall in this city.

He had staid old men throwing -thefr hats up. venerable danes waving their programs, and he kept great aa1- dience on their feet cheering for sew eral minutes He ran the whole ga- nut of musical eInotion-opera, ora torio, ballad and folk song-andi his coming marked ian epoch making event in our musical history.

London, April 17-That the Tampi- co incident, which many British ob- servers believed might easily develop into hostiIities on a large scale, is now practically over is the impression here. This view is supported by the follow ing statement cabled by the London Daily Mails correspondent in Mexico City, who's explains it is from the sForeign Office:
 There is no crisis. The govern ment is dominating the situation de- spite inherent obstacles. With the United States there is no difficulty. The Tampico incid ent is being hand led diplonatical1y on basis of mutual ccrdiality.''

Handsome and We'll Lighted
 Store Attracts Buyers.

At Easter-tide young mans fan cy-s1ig tightly turn to thoughts of clothes, stronger and more pressingly than at any other time of the year. There Aretreasons for it. One reason being that it is time to shed his overcoat. The Rogers Clothing Co, of No. 95l Main street completely meets the spring demand. The careful, prudent his wearing apparel as he is with the selection of his food.
 So at Easter time or thereabouts the average man looks about his clothes for the coming summer. There is one concern in this city that make spe- cialty of clothes. They are n1anufac- turers of ready-to-wear hand4ta11ored clothing That concern is the Rogers Clothing company. It is an attractive well lighted store, and the attractive display show the stock ana the char acter of their goods inside. They are specialists, and that is the one point that they aim at- It is a large orgari- cation and. they sell their product through their chain of stores in the eastern part of the United States.
 A man wishing to look well groom ed goes to their store. He finds they handle nothing but clothing-nct hats and collars and neckties and haber- dashery,-but clothing. They are spe- cialists in clothing and nothing else.
 They are manufacturers, selling
 
 be able to save the purchaser the midd1eman's profit. They are so con- fident of the value of their goods that they have what Is probably the l1ght- est and brightest store in the staee with 250 big electric lights, so that day or night the customer can see ab- so1utely the quality Of the goods just as they are. Some dealers do not.
 Are Manufacturers.
 Being manufacturers as well as spe- cia1ists they carry a very large assort- Fment of styles and materials and these are arranged so that every suit can be seen There are no big piles of clothes, but every suit hanging on 2 clothes hanger as clothes should be kept. and as the well groomed man invariably keeps his clothes.
 These specialist dealers have sales men who are specialists in clothing, for instance, Charles J. Collins. the store manager and Frank Mills. the head salesman. These salesmen are not continually being interrupted to search for socks or neckties or sus- penders. They specialize in clothing and they need no introduction to Bridgeporters.
 The new spring stock has reached the Rogers store in a variety of prices, in black and whites. homespuns. greys, soft pretty browns, the ever popular blue serge, plebeian prices and what ever in clothing well dressed man, young, oldN Or middle aged should wear The Stock and variety are cer- tainly to be found in this store and the quality exists throughout the en- tire line, which in itself is unique. and which marks one advantage of the era of the specialist in clothes
 4 visit to the Rogers Clothing com pany is certainly an interesting dem onstration of the value of the special fst in clothing for men, n,-clot11ing, not haberdashery.

Philadelphia, Pa, June 24.-"Preju-

labor" according to John Wanna
maker, testifying before Federal In
dustrial Commission. The way to
get rid of prejudice, according to
Wanamaker, who said he believes in
labor unions, is ito unhitch labor
parties from political parties. More
holidays and better education was
producing, he thought, a more eff.
cient and responsible type of labor
leaders.
Its insane not to recognize trade

scored the minimum wage for wo-
men as working an injustice on the
ones it intended to protect.

SCHOOL TEACHERS UP AGAINST
1T FOR SALARY RAISES

School teachers of Chicago will not
be able to get raise in salary unless
the amount of their raises is slashed
from some other fund. This serious
condition in the school board affairs
is finally admitted by the trustees.
Ella Flagg Young suggested that
the money for the salaries be Topped
off the equipment fund.
"As the budget now stands we shall
be $107 900 short of the amount re-
quired to pay the salaries of the -ele-
mentary teachers" said Mrs. Young.
81 have seen the time in Chicago
when the teachers had to sell their
monthly scrip for what they could
get: do not want to see those times
again.

sites long ago be pushed.
