You all know Mr.. Schwartz
Is a tailor of sorts,
Who of old lived around New York
town;
And, though that is some place,
Where they all 90 the pace.
His designs never got him turned
down.
They are smart, they are cute,
He sure fits 'em to suit.
However particular they be;
If it's ladies or men,
They all come back again
To this tailor, so classy is he.
If its re-model-ing,
He can change anything
From a suit to a cloak for a maid;
If to clean or to press,
You just hand him your dress
He'll return it and doll" up the braid
He's an expert in clothes,
And wherever one goes
Better style is impossible quite
Than the stuff he turns out
Reyond possible doubt,
He's cutter who's reached the ton
height.
On the ladder of fame.
Since from New York he came.
With his tapelet and scissors and
pack;
The best dressers in town,
Be it broadcloth or gown,
When they've paid him one call, they
come back.
Twenty-seven long years
In this old vale of tears
Our friend Schwartszy has followed
the biz;
A hard worker is he.
And quite low in his fee,
While in speed he sure makes the
work whiz.
SO, when you want clothes,
The place, everyone knows,
Is six hundred and two on Broadway:
Near to Sixth street it lies,
Right in front of your eyes.
Schwartz is there every night and
all day.-Adv.

3-CENT RATE
Question VIII Come Up For
Hearing Before The State
Utilities Commission

Topeka, Oct. 13.-The Kansas"
public utilities com mission is in
for a busy fall and winter. With
the return of ]. L. Bristow chair
man of the commission, from
Washington tonight, troubles
begin right, The railroads have
filed demand on the commiss-
ion for immediate action on their
applications made last fall for
three-cent passenger fares in
Kansas. If the commission does
not heed the demand for more
speed, it is rumored that the
corporations intend to try to
mandamus the com mission in
the courts.
Now about the railroads. They
filed application for three.cent
fares last November. The COM
mission heard their reasons for
the same during the most of
April. The railroads introduced
the Oklahoma formula. The
hearing ended April %. Late in
july the com mission sent the
railroads nineteen questions to
be answered, including one that
called for three-months' test of
the interstate passenger busi-
ness on the Kansas roads. The
Rock Island agreed to make this
test, TO be concluded in Decem-
Der.
It's considered doubtful if the
com mission acts on either pas
senger or gas rates before Octo-
Der %, when John Kinkel, of
Hutchinson, the third member
of the mission, is expected
back from California. He is at
tending the annual meeting of
the national association of rail-
road commissioners.

The Hutchinson Daily Gazette

Not only is the company putting

treat all with fairness and TO adj

the best interest of their portion
of the state.
Attorney f. p. Hettinger, of
Hutchinson, whose candidacy
for congressman Of the Seventh
District year ago was opposed
by the former management OF
The Gazette, to-day speaks in
highest praise Of the policy OF
the paper under its present man
agement. On a recent date, in
writing of the Hutchinson morn
ing daily, Mr.. Hettinger said
as follows:
81 am loath to get my name in
print concerning any question,
but | do wish to commend the
present management of The
Daily Gazette. The paper has
been greatly improved in moral
tone as well as in its political
methods. In my opinion, there
is no better daily newspaper for
the fam Ily to be found in Central
Kansas at the present time, as it
gives both the general and local
news OF the day in the most in.
telllgent, concise, and attractive
manner. The Gazette adyertis-
es our city west beyond the Col
orado line and southwest into
Oklahoma, and should receive
it's full share of home patronage

which had been erected since,
and many being built, yet l red

is that the most elaborately de-
