TRIO TAKEN IN CAPITAL
IN MARYLAND SHOOTING
One of Party Charged With Fatal
" Wounding Man in Anne
Arundel County.

Three colored men from Annapolis,
Md, one of them wanted to answer a
charge of shooting and probably fatally
wounding another man in Anne Arun-
del County. were arrested in this city
shortly after l o'clock this morning by
Pvt. T. H. limbaugh of the twelfth
precinct. The pistol alleged to have
been used in the shooting affair in
Maryland was found in the car in
which the three men were riding.
Leonard Curry 26 years old, member
of the trio and alleged to have done the
shooting, was accompanied by Mack
Galloway, 35 years old, and Thomas
Kent, 81 years old, who, police said,
are alleged to have been with Curry

ers. Most Of the big stores are paying
as much attention to ventilation and
air refrigeration as the theater owners,
who have proved that Summer weather
need not keep patrons away.
The majority of the big stores in
thu metropolitan districts are taking
steps through mail campaigns to keep
in touch with customers who have left
town for the Summer. A goodly num-
Der are extending rather than curtail-
ing their delivery services and some now
deliver with their own wagons to points
fifty to sixty miles from the store.
They are also making a special effort
to fill orders received by mail, express
or parcel post in order to meet and
overcome the attractions offered by the
mail order houses, which have been
able to fill orders to Summer resort
customers with a minimum of delay
owing to the opening of new ware
houses and stores.
The larger units of the department
store class are scattering warehouses
of their own at advantageous points,
from each of which a line of trucks
starts out each day. Even those with
out such warehouses overcome the diff
ficultieS by having some of their trucks
run approximately SO miles from the
store before starting to make deliveries.
1T has proved highly advantageous
in the past for the stores to increase
rather than diminish their advertising
space in the city papers. Most of the
families who spend the Summer out
of town have their local newspapers
sent to them regularly. Advertisements
thus brought to their attention en-
phasize the type of goods they are able
to secure at their home store in COM
parison with the limited stocks of the
small shops in the less densely popu-
lated Summer resorts.
Finally, executives are placing the
utmost stress on the slogan Keep your
temperS and your customers" and ham
mer it at their clerks at every oppor-
tunity.
