CHICAGO, Dec. 19-A pretty girl with a pearl handled revolver to- day played the leading part in three daylight hoIdups in the North Side residence district.
 In each case she pretended to be lost, stopped a passerby and asked him to direct her to an address which always proved to be only few doors distant. Generally the person stopped volunteered to point out the exact door, but when 1t was reached the pear handled revolver was placed against hts side and he was ordered to go m or act filled with lead"
 Inside, two men completed tne hoIdup and tied the victim to bed. Then the girl went out tor an other victim.
 After three men had been robbed and tied, the bandits left and one of the victims broke loose and no, tified the police. The two men and a oirI were arrested tonight in con nection with the robberies, but de- nied that they were implicated.
