During the five | hours he was in the city he was sur- | rounded by several hundred policeman | and a number of special officers, but an | apparently harmless crank managed | | to elude their vigilance and handed to ! the President a letter regarding a pan- | acea which he claims he ‘has discov- ered. The interview came as the Pres- | ident was leaving the church. The | stranger said he was A. B. Deming of 170 Broadway and that he had a cure for cancer, which he wished Emperor | William to try. He wanted President | Roosevelt to write a letter to the Em- peror reco: nding the cure. The | President was unruffied by the ixei- dent. With Mrs. Roosevelt he entered ! his carriage immediately and ‘was driven to the Twenty-third street ferry to take the t for Washington. Dem- Ing was taken to the Tombs Police Court.

They state that the Indian police positively refuse to at- tempt to eject the cattlemen, owing to their fear of the Nez Perces. The Nez Perces are a band of about 100, under Chief Carrier Slater, and have been located iIn isolated sections of the Flathead reservation for the last year. They refuse to recognize the Fed- eral officers or the Indian police and have staved off the Flatheads for months.

The same cordon of mounted police escorted the President that had been detailed for the ride from the ferry.

The middle of the street was kept open and the crowd, which assumed large proportions in a short time, was kept close to the side- walk. No one was allowed in the mid- dle of the street. The President, with Mrs. Roosevelt, alighted at the main entrance and went quickly into the house. There was 1it- tle excitement, the occasion barring any demonstration. The crowd was so F.

REGAL SHOES. There are 20 Regal Shoe stores in the Metropolitan District of New York. *Some are new this year—some have been running for ten years. They are all busy. On an average, there are sold in New York five pairs of Regal Shoes every minute of every working day in the year. Now if all these shoes were not satisfactory, don’t you suppose we would have had ‘“kicks’ enough, long before this, to have lifted us clear up over the Liberty statue and out to sea? The reason we are here, and growing every hour, is because the Regal is “the shoe that proves”—it is the shoe that makes good. When we tell you that the Regal is a $6 shoe for $3.50 we know what we are saying, and we are to prove it. Regal style is self-evident—you can judge it in our windows. - The purchase of one pair at $3.50 will allow you to test the fit and wear. That’s what we want. There are 60 Regal Stores—20 of them in Greater New York, where the styles originate. The new styles are on sale in our San Francisco store at the same time as in the New York stores. Other dealers get the same styles a year later. REGAL THE SHOE THAT PROVES San Francisco Store, Cor. Geary and Stockton Sts.'
