Dresher Brothers’ Expert Dyer
Gives Dyed Materials Luster,
Body and Sheen.
Martha Ann Merry of Edge
wood addition bought a white
Canton crepe dress at one of the
August sales at a downtown
store and had it dyed blue at
Dresher Brothers to match her
new silver fox neckpiece.
Because only an expert dyer
can give the life, luster and
sheen of new to dyed materials,
Martha Ann was careful to send
her work to Dresher Brothers.
She knew that if Dresher Broth
ers paid $1,500 a year for the
newest cleaning methods that
they would employ a dyer who
is a master of his trade.
She left her work at the
Brandeis branch of Desher’s be
cause she found it more conven
ient.
You can leave your order at
any of the three branch of
fices — Burgess-Nash, Dresher
the Tailor, 1515 Farnam street,
or Brandeis stores, or mail it
to the main office with explicit
directions as to the desired
color.

ed In the Elsie Jorgensen Suttle mur
der case, sharing attention with the
Cuban cobbler. Jack Fernandez, now
being held in Denver.
Colorado’ Springs #operatives now
in Denver, it is said have received
authentic information that the half
breed knew both Elsie and her
mother, Mrs. E. C. Lowe, although
the latter stoutly denied th# fact
when questioned today by Chief if
D. Harper, and spent much time with
them not long ago.
Mrs. Lowe said that site knew a
man from Pocatello, Idaho, named
Dicft Plummer, who later came to
Denver as a tramp. She declared
that he was not an Indian, however,
nor a half breed.
Search for the Indian is now under
way.
Mrs. Elsie Jorgensen Suttle was
fatally beaten in her bed Tuesday
morning.
Fernandez will be brought to Colo
rado Springs from Denver tomorrow
morning by special operatives of the
district attorney's office in an effort
to establish whether he was the
man whom Mrs. R. H. Suttle, sr.,
mother-in-law of the slain girl, says
came to her door edrly in the morn
ing of the murder and asked to see
Elsie.
Fernandez also will be confronted
with "Mickey," the household pet of
the Suttle family, half coyote and
half'Scotch collie, who is said to have
had a dislike fot the man who had
been loitering in the neighborhood of
the Suttle home the day and night
before the crime. 1

Over 54
Million Tire
Miles in
One Month!
America’s leading taxicab and motor
bus companies bought 54,208,416
Firestone tire miles in July. Each
month these large transportation units
are purchasing an increasing amount
of Firestone mileage.
They keep accurate records which
show the exact mileage of each tire
and the actual cost to the fraction of a
cent. They have standardized on
Firestone Gum-Dipped Cords because
they have found from years of expe
rience that nowhere else can they
purchase tire service so economically.
Metered mileage and carefully
checked costs have likewise convinced
thousands of individual car-owners of
the extra values built into Firestone
Tires by Gum-Dipping and other spe
cial and exclusive processes. Having
found the way to tire economy they
continue these savings by making
Firestone regular equipment. You, too,
can get unusual comfort, safety and
trouble-free service, plus lowest cost
per mile.
Buy a set of these Firestone Gum
Dipped Cords from any of the following
dealers—check your mileage against the
price you pay—and convince yourself.

Workmen Begin
Junking Ships
Seven Vessels of the Line Be
ing Torn to Pieces in Pa
cific Coast Yards.
San Francisco, Aug. 27.—The de
struction of what many nations in the
world might consider a fair sized
navy has begun in two Pacific coast
ship yards In compliance with orders
predicating the armament conference
in Washington.
Seven “ships of the line,” six of
them outforn in service, and the sev
enth, the greatest of all, still less
than half completed on the launch
ing ways, are being fairly overrun
today by "stripping crews" removing
small ordnance and other works that
"may come in handy” later. When
the stripping is completed the hulls
will either be disposed of to private
owners for destruction or will be cut
up and Junked by the government.
Foremost comes the great Montana,
27.6 per cent completed at Mare
'-'and. but It is foremost In size only.
In point of historical and tragic in
terest the Georgia, also at Mare
island, claims the greatest attention.
Back In 1906 while this battleship
was engaged In target practice off
Provincetown. Mass., an explosion in
one of its superimposed turrets killed
the entire crew of 20 and nearly
wrecked the ship.
The explosion was caused by a blast
of wind forcing back the hot gases
in theVbore of the big guns after a
salvo. As the breeches were swung
open after the discharge the gases
were forced through the guns and Into
the ammunition and shelf piles near
by, overheating and detonating them.
