4 Bold Hold Up.

This morning at 2:30 o'clock two masked men entered the rear door oi the Railroad saloon near the depot and at the point of a revolver com manded the proprietor, Chris Reinon to deliver up his cash. Mir. Reinor was sleeping in a little room just back of the bar. and hearing a noise at the door raised up in his bed to sec what the trouble was, and was sur prised at seeing a masked man enter ing his door. He made a grab fol his gun, but his arm was clinched by the robber, who quietly held a loaded gun at his head and commanded him not to move.
 MT. Reinon always keeps his daily sales under his pillow and the robbei had only to reach under the pillow and take it, and as he was doing Sc found a gun and taking gun ana money disappeared out the rear door One man stood guard outside while the other one did the work.
 They secured about $500 in cash and a $50 check of 4. J. Head. made to Chas. French. After the robbers had left Mr. Reinon called to his friend, who was sleeping in the next yard, and the officers were immedia- tel Y notified. but as yet no track of them has been found.

Tossed Girls Into the Street.

Wichita, Kan, May 12- Winona kilgore, Anna Peoples and Jaminese Wilhoit, three young girls, the latter a daughter of Lucy Wilhoit, the col league of Mrs. Nation, smashed the Summit saloon here this afternoon. They entered with rocks and the bar keeper did not know that an attack was threatened until the glass began to crash about his ears. Fred Wolf. the proprietor, defended his place, knocking the girls down with his fist and pitching them one after another into the street. In the melee the wrist of Miss Peoples was broken. The police made a quick run for the place, arrested all three of the smash CTS and lodged them in the city jail.
 Mrs. Carrie Nation arrived here to- night after an exciting day at Har- per. There was a circus in town and she organized a raid on saloons, but was arrested before she could do any smashing. She was released on prom ising that she would take the next train out of town, which she did.

Value of Advertising.

No fact is better established than that success in any given line of busi- ness Is in proportion to the amount of advertising it receives. The best and most profitable form of advertising is Tn newspapers and in well established publications. Advertising is a great art. The skillful advertisers can do wonders in the way of directing and and concentrating public attention upon whatever he has in view. Ad- vertising is also an enormous and "a apidly increasing business. It is be- lieved to influence sales in the United States more than billion of dollars a month. A mercantile establishment I in New York, not the largest, pays a man Sl0000 a year to write advertise ments and attend to their advertising. Wanamaker owes his success largely to his skill in advertising and the ex- tent to which he practices it. In some lines of his trade it is believed that his advertising expenses amount to p or 39 per cent of his sales. The skill | ful writer of advertisements, if length is admissible, will make them as at tractive and interesting as any part oi a newspaper. It is a mistake to sup pose that advertisements are seldom read. Quite the contrary. They convey information all newspaper readers want, of the greatest impor- tance in the ordinary avocations of life. The man whose name most ire quently meets the eyes of the readers of newspaper of general circulation in connection with matters relating tc his business, seems gradually to grow into their confidence and that of the public, and his business benefits as much is not more in that way than by the direct advertising it receives.

Also an exhibition of many curios from those islands. The Sunday school of the M. E. church has the matter in charge and a very instructive and entertain ing exhibition is promised. The dates will be Wednesday, Thursday, Fri day and Saturday nights of next week.
 Work was commenced today on a new telephone line that will connect Prescott with Iron Springs, and is being put in by the Prescott Electric company. That company has just completed a telephone line from Crown King to the Lincoln group of mines, about four or five miles in length. Thus one by one the outly- ing mining camps and villages are be- ing brought within talking distance with Prescott, and there is scarcely a place in the county any more, of any importance or size, which cannot be talked to over the telephone wire. Mir. Wright has certainly shown that he is made of the right stuff for first class citizen and business man and has the proper conception of things for the good of the city and county. He is, furthermore, a full fedged Yavapaian, having made his start in our mines and is now putting thousands of dol lars into improving the conditions of the city and county by bringing them in such close and quick communica- tion with each other, thus greatly facilitating business in many ways. Such men as F. L. Wright deserve to succeed, and if you'll keep your eye on them you'll notice they usually do.
