Mr.. Retailer, a Word,
Pleased

One thing you pay rent for is
your store window
Do you make it pay dividends?
Does it show a profit?
It should. If it does not it is
your fault.
Here is one way to make it pay
a mighty certain way.
Read the newspapers. When you
see articles you have in stock ad-
vertise, show them.
Show them at the time the ad-
vertising is running.
Tie your store up to the deal
er's newspaper advertising.
That will bring the newspaper
readers into your store and that
means business,

Big FOIr' Leaders Confer.

New York, Aug. 4.--Conferences of the leaders of the four great brother hoods of railroad employees represent ing 40O,O men, the majority of whom are believed to have voted to strike on 225 railway systems, were held here today. These meetings were to enable the leaders to decide upon their course of action if the represen- tatives of the railroads again refuse their demand for an eight hour day and other changes.
 It Is expected that the conference committee of the railroad man. agers will again refuse the mems de- mands at the meeting next Friday, and that the managers will advocate arbitration by the interstate com merce commission or the federal board of mediation, or that the strike be settled under the Newlands Act of 1914 by a commission of six men, two to be appointed from either side and two to be neutral. It is not re- garded as likely that the labor leaders will consent to this.
 In case of a deadlock the railway managers look to President Wilson to take hand in the controversy by calling representatives of both sides to Washington and notifying them they must compose their differences ir some manner in the public inter est

 When he was picked up he was un- conscious and his chest and ribs were crushed 1t. These were the in juries that caused his death.

Senators Table Wage Probe.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The senate commerce committee today voted to table Senator Newslands' resolution to direct the. interstate commerce com mission 10 investigate and report to congress on wages and hours of ser vice of each class of railroad em- ployes, because action was deemed in advisable pending mediation and ar bitration of disputes between the railroads and their employees.
 The committee took up the resolu- tion on written request from the Chamber of Commerce of the United States which asked for hearings.
 "It was determined" said Chair man Newlands, after the committee acted, ito have no hearings upon the subject but to lay the resolution upon the table. The committee deemed it inadvisable while proceedings were pending under the mediation arbi- traitor act to take up the subject of the pay and hours of service of rail way employees. It was also deemed inadvisable to add to the present duties of the interstate commerce commission, which as is well known Is overloaded with work. The com mittee had before it letter from the brotherhoods as follows:
 "'The railway managers and the representatives of the railroad organ izations will confer in New York early in August, and we believe the committee on interstate commerce should remain neutral at least until jointly called upon by the national conference committee of railway managers and the representatives of

CARRANZAREJECTSPLANFOR
 OPEN DISCUSSION ON MEXICO
GERMAN ATTACKS AT
 YERDUN DECREASING
No Longer Able to Hurl Massed Troops at
 Foe.

Paris, Aug. 4.-Verdun again Is 1T
 recapture by the French of the vii. lage of F1eury, which had been hel6 l by the Germans for more than {
 month, has caused great elation in l France. It is the first fruit of the 1 French slow and methodical offensive begun three days ago and seems, in
 the opinion of French military ob- { servers, to mark an epoch in the six
 months battle for the great fortress
 on the Mouse.
 The Germans appear to be less and less capable of operating on their old,
 overwhelming scale and the initiative, military men here think, is about to
 pass to the French for good.
 While the German artillery con- tinues to be as powerful and as we'll supplied as ever the Germans no longer are able to gather the masses of troops necessary to reap the bene- fit of artillery preparation.
 It is twenty days since the Ger mans made their last big attack on the right bank of the Mouse, by which they obtained small results at a heavy cost. On the left bank of the Mouse nothing beyond local &C., tions have been attempted by the ih- vaders for a week.
 French bomb throwers for a fort night past, in anticipation of the present offensive, had been creeping forward by the Vignes ravine, west of Froide Terre, with the object of getting near Thiaumont work by working around Hill No. 365.
 The bonn bers first reached the Bras F'leury road. They then separated ln- to two parties, one going to the east ward toward Thiaumont work and the second pushing northward toward Vacherauvile and Pepper Hill.
 Last week the first party stormed a redoubt west Of Thiaumont and affer a stiff night went beyond that posi- tion. The second party reached the little wood Of Vacherauville.
 The whole section from Vacherau- vile to the approaches of Souville thus were in the hands of the French, and the higher command judged the time ripe to attack from all sides at once.
 Attacked from the northwest and the southeast the Germans in Fleury offered resistance, but the French bayonets finally prevailed. Some Germans managed to escape to the Wood, but ma iority were taken prisoners.
 To sum up, the French in their three days offensive regained the ground that the Germans had taken several weeks to conquer. They took all the positions for a depth of about a mile from the slopes of Souville Fort to the approaches of Hill No. 32O, as well as in the woods east of vacherauville and in the Vignes ra- vine, which borders to the west of F'roide Terre Hill. The French also installed themselves in positions southwest, south and southeast of the famous Thiaumont Woods.

PRICE INCREASE GRANTED.
Ordinance Committee Acts FavorabIy
 at Liverymen's Hearing,

A meeting of the ordinance com mlttee of the common council last evening, it was voted to recommend a change in the ordinances permitting an increase in the price for hacks for funerals, etc. The new prices are: For funerals and weddings, $4; recep- tons and dances until 1 a. m. $3; after 1 a. m., $4; christenings, s3.
 James F. Doyle, James F. White and William Doyle, livery stable pro- prietors, explained that the cost of conducting a livery business today was greatly in excess of what it formerly was, owing to the high price of hay, oats and harness and other access sories.
 The ordinance committee also voted to recommend a change in the ordi- nances so that the maximum strength of the supernumerary police force shall be increased to 100 men.
