Chicago, Aug. 24-Who buys the S14,
SIG and SIS shoes 50 literally displayed
in windows Of our loop stores:
1t must be the workingman with his
greatly increased wage, for apparently
it is not the millionaire.
Roger Sullivan of gas and political
fame. said neither he nor G. X. q. Bill
lings, had bought a pair in two years.
Half dozen other Chicagoans OF wealth
made the same declaration.
J. Ogden Armour said he had pur-
chased his first pair of shoes Ill three
or four years last week.
'The repair man has kept my foot
wear in good shape he said: Il never
like to buy when prices are high.
Ernest A. Hamil, president OF the
Corn Exchange National bank, has not
purchased a pair since 1916.
.Son,e Of MY shoes have been re-
soled twice" he said when questioned.

All of which appears to hear out the
contention of Fl. H. Merrick, president

Great Lakes Trust company. that it is
the workingman who is buying shoes at
the top of the market and keeping prices
high.

EIGHTEEN YEARS IN BUILDING
Immense Drydock at Pearl Harbor
Finally Completed - Important
United States Naval Base.

For 70 years the United States gov
eminent officially has recognized the
strategic position of its great Pearl
Harbor naval base, the massive dry
dock of which officially was opened by
Secretary of the Navy Daniels in Au-
gust, writes a Honolulu correspondent
of the Portland OregOnian.
President Tyler in 1912 gave formal
notice to all European governments
that the United States never would
consent to their occupying Hawaii or
establishing in any of the islands
naval or military base through pur-
chase or otherwise.
The policy was reiterated later by
Daniel Webster when he was secretary
of state, by James G. Blaine and by
President Mckinley.
In 1886 the United States, through a
treaty with King Kalakaua, then ruler
of the islands, gained the right to es-
tablish what has become the Pearl
Harbor base.
Twelve years later the United
States annexed the islands. Two years
after that the annexation surveys were
begun for the great drydock just now
completed.

the man about town, II was riding

Union station a gaunt youth, with
shoe-top trousers, green suit, red neck
tie and unrazored lips, leaned over, as
we stood together in the front yestl-
bule, and asked me If that place up
yonder might be the depot. | assured
him that it was, wondering to myself
if he would be able to get through the
mob at the station without having his
pocket picked.
"a moment later the y0ungster,
whose innocence had so impressed me-
explained that he was looking for a
friend from Greenfield on the ll:4t
train: We've come over to take il
the cattle show at the fair grounds,
he added.

arefully as he got off the car, but wor

RELEASE OF JENKINS
EFFECTED BY | MAN
Personal Attorney Of U. S.
Consular Agent Deliver
ed Ransom Money.

Mexico City.-The release of Will
liam O. Jenkins. United States consul
lar agent at Puebla, who was held
captive by Mexican bandits in the
mountains south of that city and who
returned to Puebla Monday, was ef-
fected by one lone man. Senior Mes
ire, the personal attorney of Mr.. Jen-
kins, according to advices received.
At the beginning of the negotiations
for the ransom Of Mr.. Jenkins, Fred
erico Cordova, the leader of the ban
dts, stipulated that any effort on the
part of the consular agents friends
to appear in force at the bandits
rendezvous would result in the death
of Mr.. Jenkins. Senior Mestre, there
fore, met Cordova at Hacienda ChaV-
ARA, which is situated about two
hours run by automobile south OF
Puebla. He was then conducted to
a room, where he found Mr.. Jenkins
lying on a bed. After short parley
the ransom money, S3OO,OOO Mexican,
was counted out and a receipt was
signed by CordoVa. MIR. Jenkins was
then released and on the arm Of Senior
Mestre left the house. being accom-
panied for some distance by CordoVas
men, who acted as guard.
The two men finally were conveyed
to Puebla by automobile.
Few details of incidents which oc
Cured during Mr.. Jenkins week OF
captivity have been learned, as he is
not physically able to tell much of his
experience in the mountains except
that his abductors were on the move
continually to guard against attacks
They treated their prisoner with every
consideration possible, however, it il
said.
Forced to sleep on the wet groun(
during a week of daily rains, Mr., JenK
ms suffered recurrence of rheumat1
attacks, which rendered him almos
helpless. He now is in the America
Hospital at Puebla.

your stomach is in a revolt; If SICK,

Just eat a tablet or two of Pape's Dia-
