FINE WAISTS
of French Voiles, Georgette, Crepe, Wash Satin
Dozens ana dozens of pretty new styles make their debut Wednesday. It
would seem that smarter versions of waists than have ever been dis
played before, will have their premier showing. The French Voile
Waists are simply exquisite with real Filet and Cluny laces, hand
drawnwork and embroidery. Georgette Crepe Blouses in
white, flesh, maise, tea-rose and kindred soft shades. Bead
trimming, touches of real Filet and Val laces and hand
embroidery. Crepe de Chine and Wash Satin
Blouses are often distinguished by the greater
collars quite flat, and the high neck which
is new again and very fashionable.
To see new Waists at their best,

INJUNCTION IS SOUGHT TO PRE
VENT INTERFERENCE WITH
TRACKS AT FULTON.
W. Va. Traction Company Puts Big
Force lo Work to Pave Between
Rails Pending Outcome.
A >ha'5> battle developed yesterday
afternoon ktnp'Ti the West Virginia
Traction & Electric company and i hp
Ohio county board of commissioner#
over the I paving work that is being
done nn lite National pike at Fulton
wh^n a lor of sravel. sand and brick
. whs ruehed to the scene and the Tra'c
. tion company sent a big force of men
1 to Fulron to lay brick on gravel pav
ine. before its injunction application
against the county commissioners
comes up Saturday.
Yesterday afternoon, counsel for the
West Virginia Traction & Electric
company tiled in circuit court an ai>
plication for an injunction to restrain
the county commissioners or their
agents from interferinc with its
tracks or roadbed at Fulton and to
?njoin the commissioners from puf
ing concrete bed under its tracks at
hat place. The application will come
ip before Judge R. M. Addleman on
Saturday.
Scarcely had notices of the injunc
'ion proceedings been \ served onChas.
>. Ephlin, president of the commis
sioners. Clerk H. C. Underwood and
he foreman for Stringer & Springer
wh?n brick, gravel and .sand was
"?ushed to Fulton by the Traction com
pany and Traction company track
m?n were put to work paving between
tracks, contrary to orders from
h?> county commissioners. Road En
singer W*. O. McCtuske?. Jr.. stated
!a?t evening that the paving will
he completed today. The county
?tuthorities anticipate that the Trac
[ tion company will ur.se the comple
I tiou of us paving between the tracks
as one ground for the injunction
[ against the commissioners.
The squabble is die culmination of
[ ions-standing failure of the West Vir
I ginia Traction & Electric company to
| prepare for the brick-onconcrtMe pav
; ins specified by the county commis
! sioners. Finally, a few we?"-ks ago,
, the commissioners notified the Trac
j tion company that the work would
j be done this summer and that eon
! cretc must be laid uuder the pa vine
| between Hip tracks so as to make ihf>
I paving uniform the full width of the
j street.
J. D. Whittemore. general manager
i of the Traction line, appeared before
| before the commissioners and mad0
I the plea t Hh t his company had not
1 been properly notified nnd could not
t secure rails now, and thai in view of
I the inability to set heavy rails, it
j would not be long uniil the paving
1 would have to be torn up to replace
I the rails. determined to delay nn
longer, the commissioners contracted
with tSring^r <fc Springer to do the
work, itiuludinc: the brick-on-concrete
1 between the street car tracks.
The js t re t ci h of pavinc is about
I feet long, requiring about feet
| of step) rails. The county commis
sioners holl that th?* Traction coni
panv had amph; notice in tinir for
such a corporation to secure rails and
prepare for the work.
The application for ilie injunction
was filed by Chas. .1. Schuck and John
J. Coniff, attorneys, for thp Trartion
company. Prosecuting Attorney P. A.
MeKee will represpni the commis
sioners and contractors.
CASTORIA For Infants and Children. // / ~~

MANY CROOKS ARE :
HEADED THIS WAY;
SCORES OF UNDESIRABLES OF
THE SN EAK-TH I EF AND PICK
POCKET VARIETY.
Are Hovering Around the City Antici
pating Change in Administration ?
Many Robberies Committed.
A prominent official who is familiar
with police work in its various phases ?
said yesterday that he believes there
are at present more crooks of the
I pick-pocket and sneak-thief type in
I Wheeling and immediate vicinity than
j ever before. To an Intelligencer re
porter, he said that durinc the past
few days and especially on Saturday
evening, he observed many suspicious
characters' in Bridgeport and on the'
Island.
"This is a condition that usually
exists when there is to he n change
in administration of the police depart
ment." he said. "Sneak thieves,
pocket pickers and other crooks of
that variety seem to flock to a town
when they hear that there is likely
i to be a change in the policc depari
I ment. They came under the impres
sion that a new force, if appointed,
will not be familiar with their fares
? or performances. It is frequently the
case, loo. that an out-going force is
somewhat lax toward the close ot its
tenure.
There are scores c?f crooks and law
breakers either in Wheeling or with
in an hours' ride of the city, ho con
tinued. and this probably accounts for
the numerous hold-ups and small rob
beries committed In WheHins and in
the Ohio-side towns recently. He re
? ferred especially to circus day, when
i the local police arrested several a I
| leged pick-pockets.
The local police department, the
. official said, has been active in appie
i (tending manj criminals and in eaiis
i ing suspicious character* and unde
| sirable citizens to hunt other haunts.
