sisted on wearing lasts that they-and
not Paris-fancied, and American
boots and slippers for the past decade
have been patterned on English rather
than French styles. But now French
footwear is the thing and, looking over
the modes presented by French and
American bootmakers for the spring
season, one finds very little difference
in shapes or styles.
The new boots and slippers for
spring follow the French natural
lines: that is, they do not elongate the
foot in order to give extreme slender
ness. But American slipper toes are
bit more tapering than French slipper
toes and somehow convey the idea or
an unlengthened last without the
stubby, thick French effect. That Is,
the best slipper models do; some OF
the cheaper models are atrociously
clumsy.
One speaks of slippers, not boots, in
chatting of the new footwear, because
slippers are the thing for spring-very
much the thing! All the feminine
world is wearing slippers now, except
old ladies who feel their ankles must
be protected, inhabitants of countries
where people go barefoot, and consti-
tutional DIRECTORS against any kind of
footwear that is fashionable or fanci-
full. If boots are worn at all, this
Easter, they must-to coin a word-be
slipperish boots; as dainty of line as
slippers, as thin of sole, and with
curved heels. Buttoned boots are
therefore the choice. for the buttoned
top of fine fabric or supple suede or
ooze leather moulds ankle and instep

American slippers are less extrava-
CANT in style but they are extravagant
enough. One confesses though. they
do make the feminine foot look very
small and dainty. Feet will be very
pretty and very petite this season.
There is one thing, however, about the
dainty little walking slippers for spring

A Quaint Dinner Frock
The gayest costumes at Atlantic City
are seen in the evening-at the dinner
hour and at the dances which take
place in the hotels along the board
walk. This is your opportunity to
wear a big hat-there will be no March
breezes indoors, and if you wear a hat
at dinner, it must be a very stunning
picture hat. A dinner frock and hat
are shown; the hat a wide-brimmed
affair with a chantilly lace frill and a
dropping feather. and the frock an
adorable model, just out, with full,
corded skirt and quaint dart-fftted
bodice pointing down over the skirt.
This frock is of taffeta in coral-rose
shade and the seams of the bodice are
piped with black velvet. The little
cap-sleeves are very smart for this
kind of frock-not a regulation eve
ming gown, but a smart little dinner
frock to be worn with a picture hat.

 That the Miners hotel was saved is no less than miracle. as can be read fly believed from it's appearance to- day. The side of the building Is bad ly scorched and the roofing curled and blistered. Had the Miners gone, the next stand would have had to been made at the Malamute. as no early power could have saved the score of buildings that cluster to the east and south of the hotel Not only this, but the household goods that were sitting out along the plank walks would have been destroyed.
 Considerable damage was done to windows by the dynamite explosions. the Alaskan hotel being the heaviest loser in this respect. practically every pane of glass in the building being broken. The Bungalow, across the street, lost heavily, as did the Miners hotel. Windows were broken in the Hotel Hyder. Alaska Cafe, Mecca. Fly der Bath House, Mrs. Helen Bells l buildings and others. The two panes smashed in Mrs. Bells store front had only recently been put in at a cost of about $50.
 John Lindsey, owner of the Hotel Beach, was the heaviest loser, being set back about s7,500. Other losses were approximately: Nick Bieler and Fred Stanley, Arctic Cigar store and personal belongings. s2,O00; c. H. Sundmacher, $500; Max Priebe $500; ] Mrs Estmere, s400; Alaskan hotel, s250. There was no insurance. Many lost personal belongings the value of which cannot be estimated, and one roomer at the Beach left a $250 roll of bills under his pillow. Keepsakes, and articles Of an intimate personal nature upon which no montary value can be placed, were destroyed. As an instance, Judge Sundmacher lost the oldest license to practice law in the territory of Alaska, which he had tackled to his office wall.
 The Stewart fire department made a quick run over the two-mile road be- tween the two towns. bringing ladders and buckets, an act which Hyder will uot forget Practically the entire citi- zenry of Stewart came over, and as sisted materially in fighting the flames.

 Considering all the circumstances | there is an unanimous opinion that the town is very fortunate in escap- ] ing more serious damage. The fire started in the very heart of the most thickly populated district and that ! it was confined to SO limited an area | speaks volumes for the courage and persistency of the fire fighters and the efficiency of the Alaskan hotel protective apparatus. There was lit tie or no wind, a factor of the utmost importance, and as before stated, the flood tide furnished an abundance of water for the bucket brigades. The outstanding pitiful feature is the tra- gc death of Fred Card, an old sour dough well known to all the oldtimers from the north, and liked for his sterling manly qualities and abound ing good nature But for his death the fire would be passed up as merely an incident in the history of young mia ing camp.

THIS CITY URGED
FOR HERO BURIAL
Leaders in Move Say Indepen-

Pay National Honor
THREE-CoRNERED FIGHT ON

It Is the conviction Of many interest
cd Philadelphians that Independence
Square should be the final burying place
OF an unidentified soldier killed in
France.
Although Rodman Wanamaker is
urging that the burial be made in New
York, on the ground that that city Is
the pulse" of the nation. and al
though the House military affairs com
mittec has advocated Arlington Ma
tional Cemetery, yet Philadelphia has
not given up hope Of being able to honor
the unknown dead.
Yesterday the House military com
mittee reported favorably on the reso-
this country, after the example Of Eng
land and France. Each Of those coun-
cries last Armistice Day buried with
splendid ceremony one of It's uniden-
tilted heroes in the country's most hal
lowed spot Englands soldier rests in
Westminster Abbey; the soldier of
France beneath the Arch de Triomphc.
Virtually coincident with the report
in Congress yesterday representative
Philadelphians who are interested deeply
in the historical traditions of this coun-
try proposed the shrine of American
liberty as the logical resting place for
the dust Of our unknown soldier. In
dependence Square. they pointed out,
wns representative Of the glory Of Amer
ica, as Westminster Abbey was Of Eng
lnnd's glory and the Arch de Triomphe
the glory Of France.

with falling commodity prices manu- :
featuring companies will be making no
extensions and improvements in their
plants. so that the offerings Of new in
dustrial preferred stocks and bonds
will be relatively small. Their earn
ingS. too. will be small, so that invest
ment bankers will discourage the bring
ing out of new bond issues even though
corporation officials seek to assume an
aggressive policy of expansion. And,
finally. it is very important to note that
the psychological attitude Of mind Of

prises. Now it will be observed that
each and every one of these influences
will tend to increase the demand for

be no important influences tending to
increase the supply of bonds. Inevi :

KILLS IN SHADOW OF CAPITOL
Motorist Deliberately Shoots Man
Through Head and Drives Away
Mo Argument.

Washington, Jan. 24.-Detectives
are searching the city for a man in an
automobile who deliberately shot and
killed Frederick Schnurr on brightly
lighted street near the capitol.
The motorist halted his machine,
called on Schnurr to stop, walked over
to the sidewalk, put pistol to
Schnurr's head and pulled the trigger.
No talk or argument passed be-
tween the two men. There was no
cutlery. When Schnurr crumpled up
on the pavement the murderer calmly
placed the pistol in his pocket, walked
to his machine and drove away.
The killing was witnessed by Mrs.
Henry Schildroth, who became hys-
terical and rushed into the street. 1t
was several minutes before friends
were able to convince her the slain
man was not her brother.
