A BAD K0LD.UP.
Frisco Night Man High
Held Up, Robbed and
ShOF-PaSS0ngSES In
Waiting Room Have
q Thriller.

Last Friday night, just after
the Kansas City and Texas trains
had pulled out. occurred a rob-
berry and almost a killing at the
Frisco station. The night oper-
ator, C. v. High, had been out
to put the mail on the south
bound train, No. 100. While he
was out three robbers entered
the mems waiting room, and one
of them covered three men who
we're in the room and compelled
them to face the wall with hands
in the air. The other two rob-
bers went out onto the platform
and held up the operator. When
he was told to put up his hands
he reached for his gun instead,
and tried to shoot, but he had
his gloves on and the trigger
guard was too small to let his
gloved finger through to the
trigger. The robbers fired at
him three times, two of the bull
lets finding Judgment in the alb
domen. After shooting the op-
orator, the robbers compelled
him to open the money drawer,
from which they secured 1910.
The three -scoundrels then left
the depot, running eastward in
the darkness. Mr.. Hesser, the
other night man, was over at
the Frisco lunch room getting a
lunch and did not know what
was going on at the station.
After the robbers had departed
Mr.. High went to his instrument
and told the Columbus operator
he was shot, and asked him to
send help. The first the people
of this city knew of what had
happened was from a telephone
message from Columbus, asking
for particulars. The station was
phoned to, but no response was
made, so night Central phoned
the Frisco lunch room. That
was the first Mr.. Hesser knew
of what had happened. Hasten

ing over to the station he found
High sitting just inside the sta
ton dood. Looking up he said
to Hesser, well, / guess they
got me-" Hesser phoned to
town for a doctor, and DR.. Jones
responded. He found High suff-
ering considerably, and attended
him at the lunch room, after
which he was sent to the Frisco
hospital at Springfield. The
wounds, while at first considered
dangerous, are not now believed
to be so, and according to the
last reports from Division head
quarters he is getting alone nice
~.
A couple of hours after the
commission of the crime special
officers of the Frisco were on the
ground here, and efforts are be-
ing made to run -the criminals
down.
The robbers are thought to
have come from Joplin on the
train which arrives here at 11:5O
n m and after the crime they
went back in that direction.
If High had been barehanded,
or if he could have ierked off his
glove quick enough the telling
of this story would no doubt
have been different.
The Frisco station at this place
is a bad and dangerous place
at night, and the wonder is that
more crime is not committed Out
there. It is a mile from the bus
mess center of town, and is quite
hold out for tramps and tOughs,
The three fellows who were in
the waiting room were Robert
and Smith Nelson and Logar
Lowry, all of Princeton, Ken

they pressed the wall so closely
that there are dents in it. They
were waiting for the train t.

REWARD PLAN
 USED IN B|SbEE
 SCHOOLS GOOD
Number of Scholars Enrolled Shows Marked Increase, While Cases of Tardy or Absent Show Decrease.

Tke adoption at the suggestion of County Superintendent Stover of the Public schools of rewarding the pupils with perfect attendance cer tificates in the Bisbee public schools seems to have materially reduced the percentage of the number Of cases Of the tardiness and those of absence as will be seen from the comparison Of this year for the month of March.
 The plan as adopted is <o give the pupil who attends school for one month without being late or absent small certificate which states that the pupil has attended school twenty consecutive days without loss of time from absence or tardiness. The cer- tificate is signed by his teacher.
 When a pupil has secured five Of these certificates, they are persented to the teacher and in return the pupil receives a large nicely printed ~Ceriificate of Reward" which states the reason for its being given and bears the signature of the teacher as well as the superintendent of the school
 The securing Of a good at:sndance makes the school work much more beneficial to all concerned, those in Q class are Rot hindered in their ad- vaneement by the abance Of one or two and the work is made lighter on the pupils as we'll as the teacher.
 The comparison of the figures of last year and this month of March shows that in 1909 there were 1477 enrolled last year and 14SS this year The total number of cases Of tardi- ness in the month Of March last year was 262 while this year shows only i70 for the same period. The whole number Of cases Of. absence was 2S53 iR March 1909 while this year it was only f724 The average daily attendance last March was 11S0. this year 126s. The percentage of attend ance on the average number belong ing last year was SS while this year it is 94 The total number enrolled for lhe month last year was 1860 while this year it Is 2009.
 The figures speak wei, in view Of inc fact that there were more pupils this year than last so that the percentage is on a greater | number. The plan of giving these eertificates has also been adoDted h, many other schools Of the county and they also show better percentage of attendance
