Washington, Oct, 6--Objections raised by Senator John Sharpe Will Hams, Democrat, of Mississippi, are said to have been responsible for the failure of the Senate, in the closing sessions of Congress- to confirm the nomination of Miss Lucille Atcherson, of Columbus, Ohio, as Americas first woman ever to be named for an inn portant diplomatic post by the Presi- dent. Miss Atcherson had been nomi- mated to be Secretary of Embassy, fourth class.
 Miss Atcherson had recently passed the civil service examination for ap- pointment to a high diplomatic posi- ton, and it was predicted that her appointment as one of the secretaries of the United States Embassy in France would follow soon after the return of Secretary Hughes from Brazil.
 The Department of State ruled with the approval of President Hard ing, that women are eligible for lead ing positions in the Diplomatic Ser vice. Miss Atcherson was the first woman to qualify under this ruling. The examination which she was obliged to take required a knowledge

next year, other stores were estab- lined and today ten stores are now located throughout this section of the country. The local store has twice absorbed other business. This oc- cured in the amalgamation of the Moss & Krieger Store and recently with the taking over of the local Butler store. Today, Caesar Misch, this city, is one of the largest individ- ual intitutions in New England for something like 5000 names are on the books of the Bridgeport store. There are but very few credit stores in the entire country that can boast of such an army of patrons.
 Every department is making ready for the Thirtieth Anniversary Sale. These include the Women'S and Misses Departments where new Fall Coats, Wraps, Dolmans, Suits, Dresses and F'urs will be shown as well as many of the lesser needs in feminine attire-the Mems Department of Suits, Top Coats Overcoats Furnish ing, Hats, Caps, etc-The Depart ments for Children and Boys, the Mil Iinery Department and the Shoe De- partment. In every nook and cranny of the building values unprecedented will be offered. Each depa Ctment will endeavor to make the Saa one to be long remembered and nleke it one where values unparalleled can be enjoyed by all attending, old friends and new.

The management of the Caesar Misch Stores, located in many of the important cities of New England, will celebrate starting October ', the Thlr- tieth Anniversary of the founding of the first, the local store, and accord ingly elaborate preparations are now being hurried in the nake-ready of the gala occasion.
 Manager Herman Walder of the Bridgeport Misch Store is very en- unused in his elaborate plans for cele- brating the birthday of the store No stone is being left unturned in in augurating o merchandising birthday party that will be one of great i'm portance. The store is to be richly draped in bunting while throughout the interior of this big store, which is located on three streets. Main, Gold en Hill and Middle streets-the drap- ing of the stores colors will be every where in evidence.
 This important and new chapter in the firms career-its Thlrtieth An niyersary will be celebrated in a most fitting manner-a great and scintil- 1ating birthday party-to which the public will be invited. The occasion will be made more important by the holding of a Thirtieth Anniversary Sale.
 The rise of MT Misch has been most spectacular. Thirty years ago in 1S92-the first store was opened in Bridgeport. Following this, the

sounds a strictly new note in shoe stores in Bridgeport
 We selected as the desirable location for such an enterprise, the handsome new store in the northern corner of the Stratfeld Hotel lobby, spot most familiar to the men of Bridgeport; with an atmosphere uneXcel- led on stately Fifth Avenue, this new boot shop for discriminating men, will open Sat- urday, October 7th.
 It's stock comprises the most exclusive productions of the famous Thompson Bros. the recognized standard of shoe style and quality throughout America-and which we feel is proof of our ardent desire to give Bridgeport the best there is in footwear.
 Also you will find this new shop to be more than shoe store-it is fashion cen- ter ranking among the foremost of the coun- try and capable of successfully catering to men who choose their footwear with care and with critical eye to correctness of fit and fashion.
 Included with tIte ultra-fne stock of footwear of all sizes and all widths from A to E, is a complete collection of dress and sport hosiery of equally high character in style and quality.
 In conclusion, we wish to invite you to spend few pleasant moments inspecting this new store and it's attractive shoes: we want to assure you that while we guarantee you footwear satisfaction, infinitely fine in character, we will do so at prices which be- speak the Strlctest economy.

 Miss Atcherson is a college woman. She was active in the last years of the suffrage fight and was instrument al in getting the municipal vote for the women of Columbus. During the war she worked in her own city and later went abroad, serving under Anne Morgan in the interest of the work for devastated France. When Miss Morgan returned to America Miss Atcherson carried on her work.
 Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton, vice chairman, and other members of the Republican National Executive Com mittee, have long urged that women be recognized as qualified for the Diplomatic Service.

In Keeping With Bridgeport's Advancement
 To Big City Ideas, Commercially

Bridgeport IS finding itself today, com mercially. It is emerging from a period of transition necessary to the conversion of any big town into a real city.
 A new $2,OOO,OOO theatre as beautiful as any in the country, is open, another hand some new playhouse about to open, costly rebuilding of its principal hotel under way, which will make it one of the finest hostel ries in New England, the erection of a new four-story eating place on Main street where property values are $4,OOO a front foot, general improvements throughout the business section of the city-these are indi- cations of Bridgeport's commercial ad- vancement that cannot be denied.
 Certainly development of this character is in answer to the peoples voice-a demand for a greater Bridgeport where the finer de- slres of community may be gratifed with in it's own confines. And surely this is an indication that Bridgeport $ we'll establish ed citizenry has set higher standard of ideals for the future of the city.
 Mercantile stores of character follow these changes in the life of a community because faith in city's future is thus in- creased and merchants are encouraged to bigger efforts, feeling assurance of being met with an equally bigger appreciation by the people.
 With the foreging indellibly recorded in mind, we are the threshold of opening an Exclusive Mems Shoe Shop-a shop that

she did while there and afterward, and
her relationship to the murdered man,
are considered Of such important sig

and profound Official silence.
Officials are anxious to know why
her visit has not before been mem

allowed to escape investigation with no
fact that she had been in the director &
As to the Mabel Normand letters,
District Attorney Woolwine asserted
positively yesterday that. unless there
could be found in any Of them a clue
upon which to base more than theory,
he would refuse to make them public.
According to the best information,
the letters which Miss Eormand' sought
in vain to recover by visit to the
slain directors study last Saturday
night, were in Taylor's rooms all the
time. It is said they were found
stuffed In the toe Of riding boot in
Taylor's clothes press.
The Normand letters and kilograms
form q large. sized bundle. Many ol
the letters are on pink or dove-col'
ored paper.
"Who had Mabel's letters?" is q
question that was asked throughout the
day and remains unanswered.
