SHOPPING IN GERMANY.
Methods That Astonished Grum-
bling American Woman.

Methods That Astonished Grum-
bling American Woman.
Perhaps it would be unfair to gen.
eralize too confidently, but there are
shopkeepers in Germany who make no
great effort to dispose Of their goods.
An instance of this is given in "Three
Men on Wheels" The author accompa-
MED an American lady on shopping
excursion in Munich. She had been ac-
customed to shopping in London and
New York and grumbled at everything
the man showed her. 1t was not that
she was really dissatisfied. This was
her method.
She explained that she could get most
things cheaper and better elsewhere.
Not that she really thought she could.
Merely she held it good for the shop
keeper to say this. She told him that
his stock lacked taste. He did not
argue with her. He did not contradict
her. He put the things back into their
respective boxes, replaced the boxes on
their respective shelves, walked into
the little parlor behind the shop and
closed the door.
"Isn't he ever coming back?" asked
the lady after two or three minutes
had elapsed. Her tone did not imply 4
question so much as an exclamation Of
mere Impotence.
81 doubt it," replied.
"Why not" she asked, much aston
ished.
81 expect" I answered, "you have
bored him. In all probability he is at

pipe and reading the paper"

are the goods. If you want them, you
may have them. If you do not want
them, they would almost rather that
you did not come and talk about them"

TRAINING A LION.
The Beast Ii Conquered by Persua-
sion Rather Than by Force.

Suppose" said an animal expert,
"that am about to train a lion to per-
form certain tricks. If vert at once
into his cage and attempted to drive
him, I would probably be killed. But
don't do that Before 1 try to teach
him anything let the lion get used to
me. 1 hang about his cage day after
day, calling to him and keeping in his
sight. He would see me late at night
and carly in the morning. 1 would give
him his food and water. Occasionally l
would pat his head, and gradually the
lion comes to have friendly feeling
toward me- become, as it were, an
acquaintance of his. and from becom-
ing accustomed to me the lion grows to
like me, and begin to like the lion,
too, just as you would like any big pet,
q horse or q big dog. Then l go into
the lions cage without being obtrusiVe
or brusque. The big, dangerous beast,
having got used to seeing me outside,
scarcely notices the difference when
am in his private domain. l gradually
approach him and drive him about the
cage, cracking my whip so that he will
know that 1 mean business. The lion
probably believes that there % much
greater power in that whip than there
really is. If I hit him with it, do not
hurt him. There is knack in cracking
a whip so that it will not give much
pain. could swing whip on you and
strike you with a crack, but you
would scarcely feel it.
"The general principle of animal
training is to proceed easily and gradu-
ally, being gently persistent, but not
aggressive, overcoming opposition by
persuasion rather than by direct oppo-
sition and force. 1t is the same course
as that which applies to men, You first
become acquainted with the man from
whom you wish to obtain q favor.
Then, as a feeling Of friendship grows
between you, he is at last glad to do as
you wish."-Leslie's Weekly.

GEORGE ROBERTS
LUCK HAS TURNED
THIEF WHO SLIPPED THROUGH
FINGERS OF BUTTE OFFICIALS
is m CUSTODY.

George Roberts the Gorilla" the leader
OF the notorious gang OF pickpockeis who
followed in the wake Of Theodore Roose-
welt when the latter visited Montana dur
ing the campaign of 1900, and who though
arrested was turned loose because OF lack
OF evidence, is IN trouble in Chicago. City
Detective Jerry Murphy has received word
that Roberts is in the tolls for finn
flamming woman out of SIS.
The arrest of Roberts recalls the scn-
sational action of the gang OF which he
was n member during Rooscvelts famons
campaign in Montana in September, 1000.
The other members OF the gang were Dan
Nugent, Murphy, Grant, Wilson and the
20. r. Kid" as he was called. They
were considered about the slickcst aggrc-
cation that ever visited this or any other
state.

welt cost him his pocketbook, containing
money and valuable papers.
Mr.. Souihmayd and others were also
robbed. The gang after operating in Hell
cna left for Butte via Logan, intending 10
commit further robbercs while Mr.. Roose-
welt was here. In the meantime the Hell
cna authorities learned OF the robberies
there and notified the Butte police The
latter learned from n Northern Pacific de-
teetiyc that the gang was heading this way
via Logan. Chief of Polio Jack Lavclle,
Detective Murphy and Officer McGrath
went to llomcstake and there arrested the
accused.
They were taken to Helena for trial.
Upon their persons were found much in-
eliminating evidence Of their thievcry, also

Of Mr.. Roosevelt, M, Bryan and other
public men, showing they had been follow

None Of Them Sent Up.
Through various icchnicalities 1t was
possible to secure the conviction Of ony
one Of the gang, the 20 X. Kid who
got two years He secured new trial
and was released without being tried
again.
Roberts was not tried because the com-
planning witness against him died from
sunStroke. l)an AuRcnt dlcd III the nos
pital at Helena Roberts wife, Minnie
May, died while he was awaiting trial.
Roberts was well supplied with money and
it is related that he ordered the most cx-
pensivc caskct to be found in Helena for
his dead wife, whose body was sent to
Chicago for intcrment.
Gray, Murphy and Wilson were never
tried.
Old thief-takcrs say that these famous
gang Of pickpockets was one of the slick
est that ever operated anywhere. Roberts
is especially we'll known to officers of all
cities and the news of his being arrested
in Chicago will be :ead with interest. 1t
is said that when arrested he claimed to
6c merchant in Minneapolis, but he
could not make this claim good.

TAX ROLL DELIVERED
WESTON TURNS OVER A LIST OF
NAMES TO THE CITY
TREASURER.

One of the tax rolls for the city was
delivered by County Clerk Weston to the
city treasurer yesterday, and it is under
stood that the remaining rolls will be sub
mittcd some time this afternoon. The roll
delivered contains the names of tax
payers down to the letter "H," the bal
ance comprising two rolls.
The receipts of the city treasurer in
city taxes during the past few weeks
amount to more than $4,000, and pay
ments are still in progress. At the last
meeting OF the city council AN attempt
was made by Alderman Ambrose to Sc
cure the passage Of resolution providing
for an extension OF time for the payment
of city taxes from November 80 to De
cember 81, but this failed because Of the
belief that the time could not be extended
in view of the state law, which stipuates
that all taxes must be paid on or before
November 80.

ARBITRATION BOARD
TO SIT ON WINDY
CITY STRIKE
Darrow and Bliss Will Try
to Effect a Settle
ment at Once.
nv ASSOCIATED pRFsS.

Chicago. Ill.,, Nov. ,o.-Still clinging to
the hope that a termination OF the street
car strike might be accomplished through
arbitration, Mayor Harrison and the alder
manic mediation committee gathered in
the formers office today.
At the union Headquarters the impress
sion prevailed that any offer would be
rejected. II was said that the company
had offered no concessions with regard
to the routing OF cars and this was de
clared to be one Of the essential points
involved from the standpoint of the
strikers. The situation apparently was
that the mayor and the mediation CON-
mittee would have to try again if peace
is to be brought about through their ef-
forts.
Operations on the Cottage Grove ave
nue., Indiana avenue Wentworth avenue
and llalstead street lines was continued
today on practically the same basis as
yesterday.
No New Lines Opened.
No new lines were opened today. The
only attempt at enlargement of the city
railway company's service was the running
OF 10 cars on the lIastead street lines
instead OF FIVE the number operated yes
terday. An increased number of trips
were made, the same police guard being
maintained.
by agreement Of representatives of the
city railway company and the strikers the
settlement OF the strike has been placed
i'll the hands of Clarence Darrow, repre-
sening the strikers, and Colonel Bliss,
counsel for the company.
