Merchants Are Enthusiastic in Praise of Show That Brought Out Thousands Take Hats Off to Weather Man.

V'lth a beautiful fU1o for lifo from the water tower and a terrific cannonoJo that ? r,t two battleships to ,the. bottom of St. Joseph river accompanied by another wonderful display fireworks, t;u Atrial el reus went Into history. Th it it was a pronounc

X t to Mrfiuire, the fireworks display .f tho ewninv: wan the. most highly a ppreriated and brought bi crowds to Howard park. The crowd Thursday iiii;ht was thought to have been a monster, hut that of Friday nltfht wa.s b dieved to have outnumbered it by several thousand. The incoming interurban.s and steam trains all day brought in bi loads of visitors from the outside while the country roads v. ore dotted all tho day with cars:. Vrat;rr as Ideal. The weather v;u; one thins tho managers of the circus took their hats off to. and pronounced it to have been ideally perfect for all the "stunts." Th' two balloons did not live xjj, t expectations. The race between the two as bass failed to materialize on cub occasion, for at th" moment of starting the race, one of the men suddenly let so before hardly off tlie ground. .No explanation, of it could bo jrivc.n. That of yesterday almost proved serious, the balloonist takins a tumble of about twenty feet and landins n his head, lie was unconscious anil taken to the countyjail near by where he was revived after a time. No bones were found broken. I):irins all the programs and between each numb r th' bands kept things livened up. and ae a short concert each evenln.;:. One of the. things the management was appreciative of was handling of the his crowds by the police. Despite the throngs in the street and th' hundreds of autos not a mishap was reported. The crossing police managed the crowds without trouble. The same wa.s also true, of the big crowd

on Murssel field. At no time did it ncroaeh, n the enclosure allowed for the aviator to land ami pave him plenty of room t make his dips, and landings?. Alia tot Thrills Crowd.

Two women running across got in th' path of the aviator and like a flash he dived towards them. on lie went until it seemed he was about to smash the women to the ground in his mad rush, when aim in In righted his planes skyward and gaily floated into the sun, missing the women it seemed by inches.

These phdfgraphs. just in from Berlin, show what those terrible 1Ginch German ssiege guns did to the fctuhhorn, turret forts which held out so long at L,eige. These forts of nickle-armor steel, with concrete walls as thick as a hcaiso, were torn to pieces, as shown in the photographs, and the places they o'cuppled made the craters of veritable volcanoes.

Arain it seemed he must hit the earth, hut in a ' flash his hands were on the controls, and serenely he fled to the sky. Up. up ho went above the black stacks of the brewery, a crowd of men Twarmed the roof who waved. Then down ho swooped and 'when directly over the men by seemingly only inches he took his feet off the plane controls and waved them at the men. Time and again he found moments to take his hands from tho controls long enough to wave at the spectators below or loosen packages of bills which fluttered to earth. Muesscl field offered a magnificent placo for the flight and was thronged with thousands. Hundreds of autos were, riirked. on tho edge of the Held.

DRY GOODS TRADE HAS GOOD BUSINESS Demand So Far TliLs 3fonth is in I-It-eexs to What It Wius Liust Septeml)er.

CHICAGO, wept. 19. Tho John V. Farwell company in its review of the dry goods trade says: "So far this month both sales and collections are larger than for the corresponding time last year. While the south is behind, the rest of the country, more than offsets that deficit. "Large showing of black garments now being made by the manufacturers has greatly stimulated the yardage demand for black dress goods. This condition applies especially to broadcloths, silks and wool poplins, serges anil other smooth faced fabrics. "Black and white shepherd checks have become active airain; preference, howeter, being shown for the larger checks over smaller checks of previous seasons. Everything desirable in Roman stripes is being taken up as fast as produced by manufacturers. Prospects are favorable for continuance of popularity as long as present style of garments prevail. On account of vogue for tunic gowns a marked increase in demand for linings espec-

Republicans Greet Candidates at Buffet Luncheon at Oliver. Hugh T. Miller, Candidate for Senator, is Heard.

What was meant to be tho first big fireworks as a boom f"r tho fall campaign was "pulled" last night by fragments of the old S".. Joseph counties. O. P. in the form of a buffet luncheon at the Oliver hotel when Hugh T. Miller of Columbus, candidate for United State senator, and AndrewJackson Hickey of Laporte. candidate for congress, were present as the principal speakers. Although it was nosed around that a largo number of prcgressives would

be "back-in-the-fold" when the assembly wa called to order they did not seem to be present. By actual count there were 209 voters present. Fred Miller acted as toa-stmaster and John DeHaven had charge of music furnished before the luncheonHugh T. Miller selected as his text the actions of tho 1913 legislature and proceeded to center his remarks about a long list of statistics which he said proved the inefficiency of the democratic party. In his remarks he took occasion to blame the national administration for tho present business depression, criticising it for imposing the war tax and asserting that appointments of foreign ministers to f-outhern countries and other neutrals in the European controversy were hampering trade conditions. "The belated efforts of our opponents in congress to meet criticism of indefensible items in tho $90,00.000 rivers and harbors bill," he said, "would be moro worthy of attention if they had not been forced by the attacks of republicans and if they had been made before the proposal was drafted to raise $1,0(0,000 by additional taxes." He said that the records made by the state and naUonal administrations now in power as compared with those made by tho republicJis two years r.go in the management of national affairs and two administrations ago

in state management were big advantages that will help sweep tho republicans back into power. He offered no apologies for tho records of the republicans saying that they were all clean and beyond criticism. Andrew Jackson Ilickey also took occasion to criticise tho national administration, blaming it for the present business deprc-ssion. He said that the grand old party would soon be welcoming back the old line progressives and that the union of the two parties would sweep the republicans into a glorious victory next November He said the present progressive principles were practically included in the platform of the republicans, asserting that the tariff commission plan and the state primary law now in force are old time republican doctrines. Talks were mado by several others.

NEED WINTER CLOTHING

LONDON, Sept. 19. An Evening News dispatch from Rotterdam Friday night says it has been learned that every available tailor and canvas stitcher in Germany is working night and day now making heavy clothing for the German troops for a wdnter campaign. In the hurry of equipping the German armies for war this was not considered. Now all hands are working frantically. In addition German agents are buying up every sort of jack available. These, it is said, are for the German soldiers to sleep upon in the cold weather.

lally mercerized satins, meshalins and percalins Is noticed." Marshall Field and company in their weekly review of the dry goods trade saw immediate filling-in business is about normal with a good number of buyers. Retail selling has been somewhat retarded by warm weather. Orders on some lines are being taken subject to the ability of manufacturers to fulfil their contracts in view of tho scarcity of dyestuffs. There promises to be a scarcity of fiber silk hosiery, as a largo proportion of the yarns for thi: purpose have been imported from Belgium and Germany. Imported merchandise is being received in limited quantities from Great Britain and parts of the continent, but arrivals are uncertain.
