IHESPlAHS HELD UP
BY MASKED BANDIT
Exciting Incident Northeast of Town
Yesterday.

Messrs. Ward and Manning. who
were entertaining Phoenicians at the
Coliseum last week, were themselves
entertained yesterday. They went
through an ordeal which occasioned a
great deal of unpleasantness while it
lasted, but after it was over the visit
ors said they would not have missed
it for a weeks salary. II would be
something TO talk about when they got
back to New York
They were taken on an automobile
ride by George Holmes, Byron Bellas
and II. II. Grimshaw. While driving
along the Arizona canal several miles
northeast Of the city, a masked bandit
in the garb of a cowboy, Furnishing
a larger revolver than the fasteners
thought they had ever seen sprang
from the bushes. 1t seemed TO them
T a bigger gun than the occasion re-
Qu;red.
The party was ordered to disembarl1
and get into a row: also TO feel
around in the heavens for stars. They
all did SO, and the highwayman or
dered Manning to step out of the
row at a distance from his compan-
ions, so that there would be no team
work to interfere with the searching
of him
Manning was obedient and ap-
preached the robbers with his hands
well up in the air

ming stood on his tiptoes in order TO
comply with the request.
Now, turn around" commanded
the thug. Manning turned around

zle of the revolver against his neck
1t could not have been cold, the morn

have a deadly chill.

Manning; 1t amt necessary: there's

companions thought they had never
seen a man with such long arms.
Profiting by the experience Of his
team mate. he took a position with
his back to the robber and was di-
vested of all he possessed.
Just then there was a diversion.
One of the members Of the party
sprang at the robber and, before he
could protect himself, he was dis
armed and the mask was torn from

been assigned to the role.
In such a situation someone would
have wanted to fight, but Messrs.
Manning and Ward did not They
shook hands with the despoiler and
with all OF their companions, and said
that, taking it all around, it was the
happiest event Of their lives.

AN INTELLIGENT SHOPGIRL

1t is not the purpose of this arti-
Gle to idealize the lot of the shop
girl.
Five or six dollars a week would
probably represent the earning capac-
ity of the inexperienced saleswoman
The great army of girls in this line
Of work no doubt find their limit in
a SO wage, and in exceptional cases
the remuneration may run as high
as SIS or SIS.
1t is simply my aim TO point out
that the girl who goes behind the
counter with the understanding that
selling goods means more than hand
ing a parcel To a customer and get
ting money in return has set her foot
on the bottom rung Of the ladder
that may lead to some of the best
paying business positions for women,

Little Mamie goes to work in a de-
partment store at the age Of Is. If
she starts in to work as a stock girl

Gliding which of the two praids is the
better match for her sample. Mamie

she has a third braid that would be
better than either. SO she routs il
out, and the customer. who was just
about to go to another store. exclaims
in delight: There, that's the very
thingi"
Successful craftsmanship requires
both good knowledge of your goods
and ability TO handle your customer
1t is probable, however, that Mamie's
ability and interest will tend more in
one direction than in the other. and
that tendency will determine the line
of her promotion. If she is peculiarly
successful in handling people, she may
develop into valuable saleswoman.
