HEARD IN THE LOBD|Es

J tt6ttt1O III I'LL 6OOUISO
If prudes ruled the world Mr. Deans
business would be uncomfortable, for
he sells Memo corsets Since they do
not, the word is set forth in bold faced
and unblushing type to bear the scrut
my of eyes both hostile and friendly.
If Mr.. Deans business is not unmen-
tiOnable, his first name is certainly un-
pronouncable, for this imposing handle
is nothing less than 'Vignaude. -
Heard in the Hobbies defies any per-
son born in America To pronounce this
name without sneeZing. Mr. Dean him
self says the word is pronounced Ven
TO-" or something like that, but this
pronunciation is altogether unsuitable.
1t won't wash. What becomes of the
''g' and the 'au"? There is also an
"e" stuck on the end that does not de-
serve to besslighted. Words should be
treated with a degree of consideration.
To return to the Nemos, Mr.. Dean says
they are fine creations, capable of
adaptations to undulations, and i'm ev-
cry way superlatively meritoriOus.
These are his own words. spoken yes
terday afternoon in the lobby of the
Stag.
A few days ago w. L, BObo was ap-
preached by flashy Stranger who of
fercd him a large sum of money for the
privilege of using his name for the hero
of a new comic opera now being written
by 4. G. Dualmage. entitled THE Sub
scription Bluff" lyrics by Balaam's
ass. Bobo was extremely indignant
and said furiously: Il refuse to allow
my name TO be used for disreputable
purposes. Sir, / refuse your offer"
SO his name is still his own. Mr. Bobo
is connected with company that
makes a business of selling life insur-
ance stock, and during the few days he
has spent in Phoenix he has covered
as much ground as the average insura-
ance man would cover in twice the
time. He said to. one of his friends yes
terday in the Hotel Ford: Il have been
feeling dreadfully lazy during the last
few days" This is a joke for he is
fun OF energy.
For lack of suitable material at the
Commercial. a few lines will be inserted
about our London friend from Missis-
sippi. J. +. Dalton, young man of re-
finement who recently graduated from
bell hop to day clerk Mr. Dalton has
long black hair. and winning way that
makes the lobby of the Commercial one
of the most popular places in the city
to spend an agreeable afternoon He is
a bosom friend of every man in town.
barring none, and eXclusivencss is ut
terly lacking in his cosmos Like Toll
stoi he bewails the cold conventionality
which makes it impossible for him to
speak to every person he mects-par-
ticularly the ladies' He is reported to
have said: when | pass a person on
the street / say to myself Too lad that
| don't know who that is. ON close ac-
quaintance he might prove to be the
best friend l ever had. What q ripping
time we might have together if we only
knew each other He loves the en-
tire world. but some day in his youth
full enthusiasm he may meet the wrong
person. This will be the date of his
awakening.
Several weeks ago T.. j. Anderson
spent an evening at a local theatcr. 1t
was an evening of innocent enjoyment,
free from hOrseplay and bad language.
In spite of his decOrum he was given a
write up in the morning THAI caused
him TO say "Oh, splash!" with fearful
emphasis. The writer said that Mr..
Anderson had gone to the theater to
enjoy the music. This was not the case.
In reality he went for the purpose of
taking notes on the vibrations of the
with a view of installing a
telephone service for the Con
soiidated Telephone company. His ev-
ening was devoted to business. This
Delated explanation may be to9 late to
undo the harm wrought 10y the former
story but it is published with the hope
hat it will placate the throcs of Mr.
Indignation. who detests
music, but is devoted to vibrations.
Mr.. Stout is tall and slender He
anne from OswegO a few days ago and
when asked to tell the why and where
ore Of his visit to Phoenix, he replied:
L just came down because / wanted to
see the Salt river valley. I have heard
great deal about this beautiful coun-
ry, and | knew | couldn't realize what
t was like until l saw it." Mr.. Stout
sells real estate, and also MAKES loans.
He is also secretary of the Deming In
'estment company. He is a man Of af-
airs, and his enthusiasm about the Salt
liver valley will probably mean some
hing in land sales later on.
