Pishon. who with her husband Arizona representative of the Cooper, Coate and Casey Cry Goods company. occupies looms at the Criinshaw apartments, 390 North Fourth avenue.

 Mrs. Pishon. according to the story she told the police. returned to her apartment at , o'clock Friday afternoon after a shopping tour downtown. She laid her rings, valued at more than $700 on the dresser while she went to an swer d telephone call. When she re turned to her rooms the rings were gone.

 VISITOR IN C|TY

John A Germann, chairman of the electrical district No. of Higley, Ari- zc-a has been very busy man during his visit to Phoenix the last two days
 MT. Germann says that the outlook for electricity is brighter at present than ever before, but states that every thing depends on getting electric power al the right price. While at present. ex- ceptonally good prices for farm pro- ducts have apparently not such a great influence on the cost of electricity prices for products Obtainable the past years have to te taken under considera- uon as when prices for farm produce will be normal again, the electricity for pumping. for irrigation will only allow successful farming with electr- city at the lowest possible price
 MT Germann is glad to say that he notices not only the fullest support in his district but fall over the valley Some of the largest land owners in Higley, even some only adjacent to the electrical district, have expressed their fullest support not only during the present preliminary work, but have as Sured him as soon as opportunity of fers in the near future by applying for "a quantities or energy.

PRINTERS G|vE BALL II RAISE
 FUNDS F0R WORK WORTH WHILE

Printers are naturally patriotic, and
 their being called upon to handle di-
 rectly the columns and columns of
 war news which is now being given the public tends to make their spirit of loyalty more intense. Al the time
 of the threatened war with Mexico. when the national guard was ordered
 to the border and the calling for
 volunteers for the regular army was
 imminent, the Phoenix Typographical Union adopted resolution providing for the payment by the union of the . dues of all members who were at = tached to the national guard or the
 regular army, during the period Of
 active service Thus, members whose military service prevented them from working aaU their trade with q conse- qUent loss of income, were assured that they would remain in good standing in their organization, and that their right to pension and nor tuary benefits would not be endanger- ed This resolution will apply, of course to members who may enlist Whcih this country has just entered Captain Taylor, of the First Arizona infantry, is one member of the union who has gained prominence in mill tary circles.
 The printers patriotism further
 will take tangible form on the oc- casion Of the ninth annual bal of the Phoenix Typographical Union. for in Patrick hall, where the dance
 will be held tonight wJ hane an immense American flag. The flag is one sof the largest obtainable in the city and has been loaned kindly by ! Inn .44.., IL. state fair commission. The flag will form only q part however. of the attractive decorative scheme which
 has been planned.
 The dance tonight is in Eeepins with the annual custom cf the print CTS i: Phoenix, who on each Easter
 Monday give q ball the proceeds of which are placed in the sick fund of
 the Phoenix Typographical Union and are used exclusively in the vase of
 sick and disabled printers of whom 1 many como to Phoenix from every hpart of tie United States
 The dance which the printers union gives on the Monday night following each Easter Sunday is in ; ! telnatiOnal in its character, inasmuch as it IS an object of interest of all members of the International Typo : raphical Union in the United Stntes and Canada. The sale of tickets for the dance exceeds that for any other sirnil3r affair given m PaoeniN Tickets are sent to every union throughout the jurisdiction and the . recipients buy quantities of them, according to their means and in that
 way lend material and official ,oc
 oSfition to the humane work carried on by the Phoenix local
 The response each year is highly gratifying and several hundred dol lars are realized from this source. Tn addition. the local sales are very large.
 Although this phase of it's work | is not widely advertised locally, tho chief activity of the Phoenix Typo graphical Union is that of caring for

Looking down the barrel of a gun that may have been anywhere from g. calibre to 42 centimetre, L. z. Salas didn't offer the slightest objection to d search of his clothes by q highwaynan at Eighth and Madison streets about S:30 o'clock last evening. In fact, ac- cordmg to his own statement. he was not at all interested in the loss of twenty-five dollars from q pocket in his trousers, his principal concern at the moment being whether or not there was danger of a premature discharge of the weapon.
 An hour later, having steadied his nerves at the home of a friend. Saias found his way to the police station and there told of the holdup. He was able 10 give a pretty good description of the man but by that time all trails had been well covered and despite the fact that half a dozen officers searched that entire section of the city they were unable to effect the capture Of the highwayman.
 The police yesterday were endeaN0r- ing to arrive at solution of the shoot ing that took place very late Saturday night near North Second avenue ana Roosevelt street.
