The rapidly fhannlnn aspect of the joh hlnn and manufacturing district of 8t. Paul has been remarked by every visitor to the city. It la only one of the mani festations of the growth of the great Northwest. Prominent among the houses whose goods seem at home not onlv In the Northwest but In all sections Is McKlbhtn, prlscoll A Dorsey, whose furs are w.rn the country over, whose hats are known In every township of the West, whose cloves, shcep-llned . and automobile cloth ing are as familiar to the storekevpi-r of Wisconsin or Michigan as they are to his brother retailer In Iowa, Nebraska or Oregon. The growth of this house Is remnrkable, even In this remarkable era. When a firm la compelled to move or enlarge once within a decade It la worthy of note, and people ay, "They are growing.1- But when house builds for Itself quarters capable of accommodating the natural growth of Its business for twenty years to come and subsequently Is compelled to build an addition two-thirds the ca pacity of He new building, all within three years, the cause must be sought somewhere besides In the natural growth of tributary territory. in this case the reasons are absolute reliability of the product, compTth-fiialve and generous guarantees, both to re tiller and consumer, Judicious advertising, which never overstates the truth about "Mc Kibbin" goods, conscientious, painstaking care of the Individual needs of every cus tomer, be he j large or small, and one price and one set of terms to every ac count, no matter whose or where It Is. The house of McKibbin grows because It has the confidence of the public, and It will continue to grow becauso It real izes that Its most precious asset Is that same public confidence which It proposes to keep. and, If possible, to deserve, In even greater measure as the years go by. 20rt aVy i 4 r n J- Z flCn 8 M'KHOBIN.

WOMAN 11 CLUB AND CHARITY The broad and practical scope of the woman' club movement Is Indicated in the following list of subjects to come before the annual convention of the Illinois Federa tion of Women's Clubs, which convenes at Jollet next week: The proposed affiliation of the State His torical society In propagation work. The passage of new forestry laws, pro viding for state commission and the es tablishment of state preserves. The education of first aid clubs. The organisation of societies for the pre vention of the spread of tuberculosis and Its prevention In the home. The advisability of establishing state colonies for tuberculosis victims ana epilep tics. The carrying forward of the work of the consolidation of the smaller ungraded rural schools and the provision of free transpor- tatlon for rural pupils The extension of manual training and domestic science movements.

' And the Interests In Illinois are practic ally the same as those that the clubwomen are taking up In every state of the union, modified only with reference to local con ditions. The educational value of the state convention can hardly be over-estimated when one considers that all these Interests come before the house for discussion and that the convention Is made up of several hundred of the most representative women of the state. The first "get one" banquet of the fall will be given at the Young Woman's Chris tian association rooms Monday evening. December 6. The banquet will be served by the women cf the First Presbyterian church. Any member who gets one or more new members and so notifies the office will be furnished tickets for herself and new members.

The American Woman Suffrage associa tion Is congratulating Itself upon Mr. Grover Cleveland's recent attack upon It. The women argue that "free discussion al ways helps the right side." SCRAMBLE OYER DECISION lorpriia ani Confusioi at Coirt'i Actios n Bjrii.r of Desii Law, THREE REPUBLICANS OUT FOR PUCE Mr. Deael, Freseat laeambeat, Seems to Have Clear Field lawyer Says Candidates Mast Ran by Petition, ".Anyone running fof county register of deeds, whether democrat or republican, will have to run as a petition candidate," said an Omaha attorney, referring to the supreme court's decision declaring a county register of deeds must be elected -this fall. "No nominee can get on the regular ticket now. It Is, too late, as the law specifies all such nominations to be. designated on the official ballot must be filed at least twenty days prior to the election. The twentieth day has passed." There was hustling and bustling of the clans Thursday morning as soon as the public had learned through The Bee that the supreme court had declared a register of deeds must be elected this fall. Regis ter of Deeds Deuel was surprised when he' read the decision In The Bee, but caught bis breath quickly and was ready to go on the ticket. "I understand that the party committee will have to make the nomination," said Mr. Deuel, "and I shall await Its pleasure. No time will be lost In taking the necessary steps to comply with the supreme court's ruling." Mr. Deuel will, it is agreed, have no op position on the democratic side, at least no democrat could be found who had any other name to suggest. On the republican side half a doxen men are being mentioned. Prominent among them Is B. C. Minor of the county treas urer's office, M. J. Greevy, secretary of the county committee, and Bert Wilcox of South Omaha. Mr. Greevy Is In the atti tude of a tentative candidate and Is plug ging along with his work as usual. Neither Mr. Minor nor Mr. Wilcox has yet made an open declaration of his candidacy, but their friends are at work creating sentiment in their favor. The name of William Coburn was men tioned at the City hall Thursday morning, as a probable candidate for the republican nomination for register of deeds. Mr. Coburn, himself, was inclined to be reticent and not do much talking. "In all probability the democratic county committee will renominate Harry Deuel for register of deeds at an adjourned meet ing to be held in the Jacksonlan club roorns Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock," said Chairman Cosgrove. County Attorney Slabaugh was, perhaps, more perplexed than anyone else by the de cision. "That was a separate and complete law," said Mr. Slabaugh. "No other law af fecting the terms of office was an induce ment for its passage, and I am at a loss to understand how the majority of the supreme court reached the result they did. Judge Barnes, in his dissenting opinion, has. as it seems to me, laid down the law as It has been interpreted in Nebraska, However, the supreme court undoubtedly found good ground for deciding as It did, and we shall nave to abide by its ruling. As to making nominations for the office, even if we should have to go Into court here to arcerUUn the proper way, we have seven days exclusive of today in which to do so, and I Uo not apprehend there will be any difficulty In arriving at a satisfac tory method of procedure." Secretary Greevy, as Moon as the decision of the supreme court was known, proceeded to issue a call for a meeting of the repub lican county committee, which will be held Saturday afternoon. At that time the question of nominating a candidate against Mr. Deuel will be taken up and decided. Some other matters will also come up that will make the Saturday meeting of more than ordinary Importance. Chairman Cosgrove and Secretary Daniel of the democratic county committee have submitted to County Clerk Drexel a list of candidates to fill vacancies for the minor offices similar to the list submitted by the republican committee. The county clerk refused to accept the list offered by the democratic committee, as he did the re publican list. He says he will wait until the last possible moment to hear from the supreme court on the primary election law suit. "I am as anxious as anyone else to put these names on the ballot and get the whole thing out of my hands," said Mr. Drexel, "but unless the courts point out a method to be followed in completing the ticket I do not see my way clear to ac cept these lists. After the court has spoken on the mandamus proceeding now pending and to be heard by Judge Sutton Saturday morning I shall govern my action accordingly. Whatever the court decides will be satisfactory to ma." Chairman Bullard of the democratic city committee has announced the' committee will meet Tuesday evenfng, October 24, In the Jacksonlan club rooms to nominate six men for the Board of Education. The dem ocrats have been putting off this duty to the very last because of the great difficulty In getting candidates. The success of the republican ticket is predestined, In the opinion of polltlcans. but to preserve It entity the local democratic party believes It has to put up a ticket to be sacrificed It has been announced that O. W. Wattles snd Robert Cowell will be on the list of speakers at the meeting of the Sixth Ward Republican league at Idlemlld hall, Twenty fourth and Grant streets, Friday evening. Vacancies In minor offices on the demo cratlo ticket were filled Wednesday night by nominations made by the democratic county committee at an adlourned meeting held at the Jacksonlan club. When the names were presented to County Clerk Drexel he announced he would render a decision Saturday as to whether or not he would accept them. This action by his own party puts him In something of a tight i place, as he has refused, up to date, to ac cept any republican nominations made by the committee to fill vacancies from the primaries, For Omaha the democrats ' named these men for Justice of the peace, only one man having cared to put up the filing fee and enter the lists at the primaries: Daniel Horrlgan, L R. Blonecker, John B. Qulnn. Philip Andrea and Ed A. Shaw. For con stables the following were named: Charles Kammerer, James Perkins, Charles Ep stein, Richard Marnell, Domlnlo Cosgrove and Peter Ecker. Besides these about twenty candidates were named for Justice of the peace, con stable., and road overseer In country dis tricts. "I now announce myself as a candidate for the nomination of city councilman from the Tenth ward," was the declaration of P. J. McNamara, president of the Retail Butchers' association', at a social session held by that organisation in Washington hall Wednesday night. Mr. McNamara is a republican and Is anxious for his friends to know now, early in the "game," that he is out for the place. He conducts a meat market at 2221 Leavenworth and resides at 1230 Mason street. Some Sensonahle Advice. It may be a piece of superfluous advice to urge people at this season of 'the year to lay In a supply of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It Is almost sure to be needed before winter Is over, and much more prompt and satisfactory results are ob tained when taken as soon as a cold Is con tracted and before It has become settled In the system, which can only be done by keeping the remedy at hand. This remedy Is so widely known and so altogether good that no one should hesitate about buying It In preference to any other. The Nebraska state convention of Young Woman's Christian associations will be held at Fremont November 4 and S. Miss Ruth Paxson and Miss Esther Anderson, both national secretaries, will be among the speakers. Railroad rates on the cer tificate plan have been promised and a large attendance is expected. The program will be announced later. . Announcements of the Theaters. "Piff, PalT, Pouf" will finish its engage ment at the Boyd on Saturday evening, a matinee being given on Saturday after noon. It has made a success in Omaha, as It has elsewhere. On Sunday evening one of the finest of the quieter sort of drama will be offered at the Boyd. "Home Folks," by C. T. Daxey. This Is heralded as a gen uine triumph In the adaptation of the un der currents of life to stage purposes. It appeals to that something In every man that never dies, no matter how far he has wandered or how long he has been on the way. The scenes of the old home place, "the smiles, the tears of boyhood's years, the words of love then . spoken," are all brought back by It. It has also Its appeal to the riper emotions of the man who has fought his fight with the world and won it. It does not descend- to the mawkish, but, like "The Old Homestead," gives a truthful, lifelike version of the phases of life It deals with. It has been superbly staged and Is being presented by one of the best companies ever sent .out from New Xork. Archie Boyd antj.JCdwln Arden head the organization, which Is under the direc tion of Joseph Brooks,, and which is equipped with the most magnificent array of scenery and stage settings ever used In a play of the kind. The engagement Is for three nights, beginning on Sunday. Seats are now on sale for the entire en gagement. T-aughlng, shrieking, shouting, the big audiences at the Burwood this week have greeted the fall of the curtain on each act with the most uproarious applause. "All the Comforts of Home" has made a most tremendous hit. It will be seen but three more times, this and Saturday evenings and a matinee on Saturday. For next week the bill will be the great labor play, "The Lost Paradise." ORPHANAGE FAIR NOW OPEN AndiUriua Bttotifill Doortd for Oocfcsion. DIFFERENT I00THS STRIKING SIGHT Numerous Amasemeats Faralsh At tractions. Some of Them Betas Deeldedlr Ont of the Ordinary, With music, and brilliant lights, and beautiful decorations, the orphi.iV fair opened last night at the Auditorium. The j nuge room, witn Its many booths draped with resplendent tissue paper and bunting, and containing articles of china, silver, glass and silk, looked like a fairy palace. Pretty girls or comely matrons were In these houses of beauty to sell to who might want to buy. The parish booths are pronounced by many to be the most striking ever seen I tv the Auditorium. All of them are pretty and the man who hod to decide on the prettiest would be in troflblo Indeed. Eacn one Is presided over by several women and girls who have Interested themselves in the welfare of St. James' orphanage. The parish booths are ranged along the sides of the room, while In the center is the space for the various advertising ex hibitors. The latter were not quite fin ished last night, but the last touches will be put on today and a force of men and women will be ready for demonstration tonight. It would take more than a single evening to see all the things that are for sale at the fair. One booth, pretty in itself, is re markable for the value of its wares. Silver, cut glass and fragile china are displayed on the counter to tempt the visitor. Another booth has some exquisite creations in fancy work. At another three or four girls are selling sofa pillows. At the Sacred Heart doll booth you may, by de positing 10 cents, get a chance on John Paul Jones, or better yet, you may take a number on a Lady of the Harem. At other places candy and other confections may be bought. Some of Hide Attractions. Dlmick's orchestra furnished the music last night, as It will until the close of the fair. 1'ndeland's Juvenile orchestra was nother attraction. The Boys of Woodcraft gave two exhibition drills on the stage. The only part of the big side show In working order last night was the "Illusion," which occasioned a great deal of wonder. A woman actually seems to sit in the air head downward and feet upward as natur. ally aa if she sat on earth. This Is only one of the curious things which is seen in 'Illusion." The side show will be open to all comers tonight. A loop the loop has been prepared for the use of visitors and Dave O'Brien will make the first trip to night to prove that the contrivance in wife. Enill Strauss and Frank Furay will do the high dive and they will draw cuts to see which ono leaps from a parachute. The original Fantanas will give their first exhi bition In their tent In the side show. Among the parish booths are the follow ing, with the names of those in charge: St. Agnes. South Omaha Mrs. A.

But care must be exercised in selecting a model for style. The coat in the picture is the favorite Gordon style for a modestly priced coat. A fitted coat should be avoided, as it isn't fair to expect in a $30 or $10 wool seal, muskrat or astrachan coat the same work that is put in a $400 London-dyed Alaska seal coat. Astrachan has come to be the stand-by with people who have had opportunities to make comparison. Gordon & Ferguson recommend astrachan for these coats.
