Charlie Voglewede The Shoe Seller

The trim elegance of her shoes determines as much as any other detail of a woman’s apparel,her right to claim the distinction of being correctly and perfectly costumed. Grace of outline and general shapeliness of design must combine with feminine daintiness to make the faultless shoe for the properly gowned women. Light but firm construction is one of the chief requisites in anv shoe for women —the best FALL models except those intended for street wear in stormy weather, being extremely light. To be modish this season a woman's shoe must have the short vamp, the narrow toe the moderately high arch and heel and a sole that is light, flexible and closely trimmed. Come in o nd look over the fall styles at the

Don’t forget to attend the Electric theater tonight and see one of the best entertainments you have ever witnessed. The films are fine and none should fail to see them. Pat came home on the eventful night on which he looked for a son and heir. It was a wee smal hour as he came and met the nurse. She held up three fingers and Pat stared; then she muttered “triplets.” Still he stared. Then she said plainly, “Three of them Pat.” Just then the clock struck three. “Begorry,” said Pat, “I'm not superstitious, but I thank God I did not get home at twelve o’clock.” David H. Randall yesterday closed a deal for the purchase of the saloon of Fred H. Bicknese, on Barr street, near police headquarters. After his arrest on a charge of poisoning Frances Steele, Randall sold his saloon on west Main street to Polly Bunch, who formerly conducted a saloon in-the rolling mills district. The recent grand jury failed to return an indictment against Randall in the poisoning case. —Ft. Wayne JournalGazette. Reports from various sections of the country give promise of an open winter. They say that the squirrels are not laying in their usual store of nuts, and that the bees have made less honey than in other years, sure harbingers of a warm winter. On account of the scarcity of fruits and vegetables the housewife did not put up as much canned stuff this season as usual —another good (?) sign and then the natural gas pressure is lighter as the weather gets chillier.

Disguised as a farmer Marshal Elisha Roberts patroled the streets of Van Buren to preserve the peace on Hallow’een and when four young men attempted to throw a well-pull-ing devise int the creek the officer 'interfered. As the rioters did not know the man in the rustic garb was the marshal, one of them grabbed him and another hit him on the nose with a rock. Anti-saloon forces at Warren failed to secure enough names to a remonstrance to defeat saloons. Out of 795 names 331 were secured, but the temperance people will keep on working in hopes of securing sufficient names to defeat the next applicant. The failure to file a remonstrance Friday will mean a saloon for another year at least, as Hi Gill will apply Monday, probably with success. The Supreme court has decided that fees for giving election notices are a part of the fees which county sheriffs must pay into the county treasury as the property of the county upon drawing their salaries. The court puts such fees in the same class with “in-and-out” fees for receiving and discharging prisoners, wßlch are also held to be the property of the county and not of the sheriff. The death blow was dealt late yesterday afternoon to Fernando Frazier and his aspirations of becoming a proprietor of a saloon at Kingsland, Lancaster township, when Attorney Frank Gordon, acting for the temperance element of the township, filed with the county auditor a remonstrance containing 327 names, twentysix more than the number required by law to prevent a license from being issued. —Bluffton Banner. Th-; suit between the rival county superintendents of Blackford county will b< tried here some time nexr term of court, the case having been sent here on a change of venue. W. P. Modin was elected superintendent in June, 1907, but Finley Geiger claimed no legal election had been held and is attempting to hold the office. Modlin brought suit to get the books and office, the case was decided in Modl'n’s favor and carried to the supreme court, by which it was sent back for retrial. It was then venued to Grant county.—Marion Chronicle.

THE SOCIAL DOINGS (Continued from page 1.) mums and smilax, it was a beautiful sight to behold and the sumptuous turkey dinner which was served at six o’clock consisted of everything that was good to eat.

Mrs. H. B. France has gone to Chicago for a visit with her parents. Reports made by truancy officers to Amos W. Butler, president of the state truancy board, show that during the school year of 1906 and 1907, 22,006 children were brought into school who had either not been in school or whose attendance was irregular. Os this number, 21,094 were to public schools and 957 to private or parochial schools. There are 111 trnaucy officers in the state.

Officers for the ensuing year will be selected and the advisability of admitting two more teams into the league will be considered.

The Supreme court has decided that an interurban railroad is a railroad under the law. The decision is in the case of an appeal taken to the court of Kosciusko county by a number of taxpayers against paying a tax levied to pay $25,000 subsidy to the Winona interurban railway in Wayne township, that county. The lower court decided in favor of the railway and the taxpayers appealed to the higher court on the grounds that there is no valid law of the state authorizing a tax levy for interurbans. o BOX SOCIAL.
