WON FREE TRIP TO CHICAGO

When it comes to selling Edison
Photographs and winning a con-
test F. M Munson, of the WaKeeney
Drug Store, has demonstrated that
the winning does not depend upon the
population of the trade territory, but
upon the ability of the salesman and
the willingness of the people to buy.
Beginning with May 1st, last and end
ing with June 18th, Mr.. Munson was
a vigorous worker in a sales contest
which included the states of Kansas,
Missouri, Oklahoma and Arkansas.
There was a line of luck running
through the contest in that a common
punch board, such as are commonly
used. was used in the contest The
sale of certain types of Photographs
allowed either one or two punches ac-
cording to the value of the instru-
ment- The number of sales made de-
cided the number of punches to be al
lowed, thus making it an object to
make the sales. In all the territory
covered by these four states Mr.
Munson had but four close contestants
both in number of sales and in num-
bers drawn from the punch board.
The salesman at SaIina won first
place having sold forty-six phono-
graphs; the one who drew second
place sold twenty-five and the third
place was won by a salesman at Pa
ola, Kansas, who sold twenty-six Ed
fsons, the same number that Mr..
Munson sold. Mr.. Munson had the
most sparcely settled territory of any
of the twenty-three highest contest
ants and yet only one of them did a
| larger business than he. There were
| $50 dealers in the contest
| Mr.. Munson reported in Kansas
| City last Saturday for the trip and
is now having a very pleasant time
| in Chicago at the expense of the Ed
ison Company attending convention
of the Edison dealers

Cananea Is Again
Scene of ROBBERY;
Bandits Captured

According to parties in the city yes
terday from Cananea there was anoth-
er attempted robbery in that city last
Tuesday. Two Mexicans hired a lit
ney driver to take them out from Can
anea to camp out about five miles.
When they had gone about three miles
south from Cananea they held up the
driver, relieved him of his money,
beat him, threw him out of the car and
took the car.
The driver was picked up shortly
after the robbers had left with the
car and went back to Cananea where
he reported the matter. Officers who
gave chase in another car and over
took the two men about eight miles
from Naco. The gasoline had given
out in the car they had stolen and they
were caught by the officers.
They were taken back to Cananea
where they will be given a hearing.
It is the opinion of the officers that
hey are not the men who recently
held up the Daymaster.

8 ARE HELD F Or
j. 8. GRAND JURY.
Commissioner Orders Release
Warren Man Who Proves
Innocence at Hearing

Joe Peranic, Joe Kurach and John
Kasum were yesterday bound over to
await the action of the federal grand
jury in Tucson after being given a pre-
iliminary hearing before Il. s. Com
missioner James Allison. All furnish
ed bond in the sum of $1,000 each.
In the case of Charles McCray, af-
ter hearing the testimony the commits
sioner ordered his release. The testi-
mOny showed that Prohibition Officer
Monroy had warrant to search the
house of a man named Dennison, I'm
Warren. When the officers went to
the house they found that McCray
and his wife were occupying the up
per portion of the house and that he
had no access to the lower portion of
the house where officers found sever
al barrels Of mash, some of which had
been run through the still and one
barrel already run through, and still
without the coil.
They asked McCray if he had any
liquor in his part of the house and he
told them that there were four pint
bottles in the fee box when he moved
in two weeks before and that he had
not touched them. The officers took
them.
McCray stated that he had come to
Bisbee about two weeks ago from Col
Orado to join his wife, who had ar
rived a week ahead of him, and that
his wife had been left in charge of
the Dennison house while the owners
were gone. The commissioner was of
the opinion that McCray was innocent
and gave him the benefit of the doubt
Prohibition Officer Monroy and
Deputy Sheriffs GIBSON, Kenney and
Lahore testified, in each instance
against the three men, just what they
found in each house as it was search
ed under the search warrant that they
had procured

ed. The pump will be shipped at once

Pastor Speaks on
Bargain Counter
at Gospel Meeting

In presenting the subject, THE Bar
gain Counter of Life" to the young
people at the Woman's Club building
last Friday night. Elder f. r. Davis
said that the young people of the ma
ton stand at the bargain counter of
life. There are two parties at this
bargain counter, said the pastor, ready
to transact business with them: the
Prince of Life and the Prince of the
World. Both parties have their goods
on the bargain counter ready for in
spectiOn and purchase, each making
a strong appeal on behalf of the goods
he has to offer, he said.
The main question. said the speaker
is: Which of these appeals will gain
your patronage?S BY purchasing the
goods Offered by the Prince of Life.
we gain the friendship of God, and a
title to an Inheritance, called the
Eternal Life. By purchasing from the
Prince of the World we gain the friend
shin of the world and the enmity of
God. Those who buy of the Prince of
the World really sell themselves and
make poor investment"
The speaker also spoke of the dress
problem that is disturbing the minds
of the authorities of some high schools
and colleges. Movements are being
started to place restrictions on extra
Vagance in dress which is causing
many worthy young people to leave
school, said Pastor, Davis, because
they are financially unable to keep
pace with the modern dress fad

TEACHING THE CLASSICS.

Dean West Is right In telling the
American Classical league at It's Phila-
delphla meeting that there Is more
criticism nowadays Of the methods of
teaching the classics than of their
intrinsic value. Their contact at a
thousand points with modern life and
thought is not denied; the broad basis
they form for culture Is admitted. A
certain reaction in their favor has oc-
cured In the educational world.
Teachers of English have always been
their warm champions, and the teach
ers Of history and the modern Latin
tongues friendly. But teachers OF
mathematics and science now begin
TO SIZE. as DIR. Paul Shorey pointed OUT
years ago, that the best methods OF
teaching the classics are so much like
the best methods of teaching exact
science that these two branches of II
liberal education should regard each
other with firm cordiality, says the
New York Post The student who
comes up to college after thorough
study of Latin, Greek, or both, Is bet
ter prepared tn take up science than
the student who has been trained In
less exacting courses.
