 Next he must have the personali- ty to permit him to work with Peo- pie. In other words, he must be COOPERATIVE. He must have the ABILITY TO PICK SUE .ORDINATES. No one man, no matter how bright, can do much He has got to build an organiza- ton. And to build an organization he must have the ability to pick men and to INSPIRE THEM
 Then he must have the trite com monplaces of honesty and trust worthiness. He must have an aP- preciation of not only the business of his company, but sympathetic understanding of the public point of view toward it. Our ideas are broadening of what is public cor poration, and it is the duty of a cor porate manager to understand the public viewpoint. He must be AN EDUCATOR. Give a man these qualities and there will be no trou- ble about his earning that fifty thousand dollar salary.

ATTRACTIONS 1.-THE THEATRES
POLI'S THEATER

Seldom has an act captfvated all classes as has the great screaming farce, "A Day in Court presented this week at the big Pon theatre by Herbert Hayman and his exceptional company of twelve talented and versa tile actors from the ranks Of opera, drama, musical comedy and burleSq11e. Such an aggregation with their car load of special scenery, is but the be- ginning of new era in vaudeville and Manager PoIi with that foresight which has made him the largest in dividual owner of theatres in the world, has been first to introduce these gigantic productions upon the variety stage.
 Included in the ''Day in Court'' cast is Billy Rice, the famous comedian; Charles Buckley, the famous judge" impersonator; the Misses Kelly, King and Herbert, renowned Texas Tommy and other speciality dancers, and a number of others equally well known. Patrons will agree that this act is the biggest laugh in vaudeville today.
 In addition to the big Po1i bill for today includes Rita Redmond, the singing comedienne, a charming sing CT with exceptional gowns; A. Raymo G Co-, another roaring one-act farce; Johnny Johnson, a singing comedian brought direct from Keith's Fifth ave nue in New York where metropolitan audiences ehave put their stamp of ap- proval upon his work; O'Brien-Dennet- O'Brien with a repertoire of new and popular song numbers, and Leach & Wallin, aerial gymnasts whose display of nerve in a series of sensational feats Is beyond the ordinary.
 A special two-reel feature picture of the Vitagraph variety will be shown in the usual Poi manner which e1in- mates eye-strain and affords comfort able seats from which to witness the steady clear and uniformly operated projection.

NIcKELs FOR TROLLEY RIDING.
The Sum They TotaIed in Connection
 Last Year.

CF'rom the New Haven Register.)
 The information that the trolley lines of the Connecticut company re- ceived last year $7, 904, ,805 from passen- ger traffic, meaning that about 39, 0eO,- 900 persons paid a nickel apiece for riding in, or on, or clinging somewhere to the edges of the cars, is a little startling at first. If the revenue came wholly from Connecticut people, it would mean that each man, woman and child of us takes about 35 rides a year. It does not mean that. There are many adults to say nothing of children, in this state, who never ride on a trolley car, and some, prob ably, who have never. seen one. There are, on the other hand, some who use these vehicles four or six times a day. They together with the thous- ands who come from within and with out the state to special events such as fairs, races, football and base ball games, make up the bulk of the traffic. What might Se called the inevitable trolley income in this state is very substantial and fairly regu- lar.
 There is much incidental riding, es- peciaI1y in summer. The trolley car has not inappropriateIy been called ftthe peoples automobile The per son with 10 cents can get a seat on the front of an open car in summer and take a spin ranging in miles from to 10, with as great enjoyment, and with much less worry and uncertainty to time of return, than the passen- ger in an automobile. The cost, more over, is inconsequentia1. The nickel looks smaller to the average person of today than the cent looked to the person of half century ago. In some portions of the country it is the smallest noticeable denomination of money. But see what a mass some millions of them make. The revenue from street railways is one of the surest eIeme ents of railroading. It tends to increase faster than does the population. Other forms of railroad ing may be uncertain in their pro- ceeds. The running of trolley lines seems to be quite the opposite in it's results. The people will ride by their most popular form of transportation, whatever the cost of living and what ever the condition of trade and the tariff.

AMERICAN SOLDIERS
INJURED DURING
BATTLE
BULLETS CROSS LINE AT NACO,
ARlZ., AND HOUSES AND
MEN ARE DAMAGED.

Naco, Ariz., April S,-~With little ad-
vantage to either side, state forces to-
day alternately attacked Naco, Sonora,
or We're met midway by Ojedas small
federal force defending the Sonora
Arizona border town.
In two district battles during the
day and a continual long range artiI-
lery duel the federaIs are known to
have lost 40 wounded and seven killed.
The state troops loss is believed to be
much greater. Twenty wounded fed
erals were brought here for treatment
by the United States army medical
corps. Two died in the hospital. Ten
federals, who deserted, reported that
the loss to the state troops was great
at stages of the battle where the at
tackers We're caught in a shower of
shrapnel and machine gun bullets.
While on patrol duty Private oliver
of the Ninth United states cavalry was
wounded in the hand and leg.
Trumpeter lrlcmming was shot through
the shoulder, the ball piercing his body
and falling into his blouse pocket.
G. ]. Brown, a negro trooper, was
shot in the abdomen when in camp
While the state troops pressed the
attack, Ojfda continued his custom Of
striking the first blow. Throughout
the day he made salles to the west
assaulting superior forces, only to re
turn with slight loss.
The last sally was made about 5
o'clock, when a car of dynamite ex-
ploded on the railway a short distance
below the town, either as a signal or in
an attempt to dynamite the town by
stealth. At once the federal general
ordered a charge, and once more met
the advancing lines of the state troops.
Occasional firing continued into the
night
During today's fighting bullets fell
frequently on the Arizona side of the
line, but while some We're spent balls,
many pierced the walls of buildings.
The United States custom house was
hit twice. No non -combatants were
reported injured aside from the negro
trooper of the Ninth cavalry
Word comes from the state lines
that only the troops of General obre-
gon and Colonel Alvarez participated
in the attack, totaling no more than
1000. Reinforcements led by Colonels
Gales and Bracamente are expected tn
arrive before morning.

o'clock tonight. She was taken by
her mother to a nursing home, Where
she will be given medical treatment.
Mrs. Emerson feels grave anxiety for
her daughters condition and will not
permit her to see anyone.
Certain of the more militant frienns
of Miss Emerson, including a number
of Americans who were displeased at
Mrs. Emerson's abandoning the cam
palgn to force intervention by the
American embassy, planned to take
away the daughter without her
mothers knowledge. in an automobile,
so that they might get an interview
without the mothers moderating in
fluence.
The militants placed a relay of
pickets to watch for Miss Emersons
release, but We're forestalled by he1
unexpected early liberation, the home
secretary having announced that she
would be set at liberty tomorrow.
