WATCH THE BOX! GHCOSTLY
CALL ON WIRE SAVES A LIFE;
FOILS 3 BOLD HIGHWAYMEN HERE
Officer Therriault, of Local Police, Sends Reserves to
Freight Yards in Time to Block Robbery of
Big Shipment of Precious Metal.
"Watch the box!"
This message was shrieiked int. the ear of Officer Therriault at police
headquarters at 1 a. in. today, when he took down the telephone receiver In
response to an urgent ring.
"Huh?" shouted the officer. "WVh'ltsat; where are yuh?"
He found himself shouting into a "dead" telephone.
"S'funny," muttered Therriault as he tulrned away from the telephone. "NOW
what th' deuce--"
The telephone rang again and he( grabbed the receiver to find Patrolman
Morris on the wire.
HIGHWAYMEN ARE CORNERED.
"Send the reserves iot to tihe -= & - freight yards," Morris bawled in
his ear. "Three guys tried to rob the express office of it box of gold bullion
and shot Jones. WVe've got 'em cornered in it coal bin."
Action followed.
The patrol wagon, loaded with blue coats, pounded out to the yards, sur
rounded the coal bin and capltured three bandits. They were locked up in
headquarters. Jones, the agent, was found on the floor of his office in a
semi-conscious condition and was revived later.
When interviewed by a reporter for The Missoullan at headquarters he
told the following story of the attempted robbery:
"A big shipment of gold bullion came in early last night," he said, ten
derly nursing a bandaged hlad where it bullet had plowed a furrow just
above his right ear. "''1 hadl been advised by the company that it would
come through and was cautioned to watcih it carefully while it uaited over
here for transfer on east.
MYSTERIOUS MESSAGE COMES.
".lust before that a funerall tparty (amelll' tihro)ugh aInd a coffin was left
in the office, to be put on titi' smiiie trainl as the gold. While I was in imy
office a big electricntl stormii cam.' upi. you retmember, about 11:311 last night.
"Dt)uring the flashes of liglltitg the' telegraiph insll.trlmenl t began to 'lick.
I've knownl a storm to lmakli. the instrumenlllts click before, but this timne it
spelled out a moessangr, just as iai as lain y operator could send.
"I listened and got this call."
Jones wrote it down on a slip if paper, like this:
"'V'atch the box' was the lmessage.. I heard it as plain as any I ever
took," he continued. lle shivered ! r if at the menmory of some frightful experi
ence, and continued.
"I grabbed the key and (ialed along tlih line but got no answers. Then,
with other flashes, that nmessage' was reptemted, till I was nearly crazy with
anxiety, in inot 'knowing where the message caine fromlll, and 1 admit, I was
scaredl, too.
IS IT GHOST OR HUMAN?
"Well, while I was thinking it o\ver and wondering if 1 hadn't been hearing
things, I suddenly did hear something that got my goat again. It was a bon
tinuous scraping. I got up and went ,around the office looking for the cause
of the sound, and thought it might be it rat somewhere. When I sat down
the scraping began again. The tlamp began to burn low, then, too, and the
sound got to be like a saw going through inetal.
"The scraping stopped all all of a sudden, ais I happened to glance at that
coffin, I saw in the dim light that the lid was partly raised and two eyes
were glaring at me from the dark interior.
"I don't know how I dih it, 1 was stiff with fright, buit I was across that
room in one jump and landed right on that coffin lil. oldlling it down with
my weight I piled trunks iii it from nearby till I knew nobody and no 'tlling'
could raise it.
"At that minute a shot seemed to burst the office wide open with its
roar. I felt a blowais if a bolt of lightning hacd gone through my head and I
went down. I remelmbier thut 1 had jlust enough senlse left to try to reach my
gun: then I fainted, and that's all I know about It."
Police investigation of the attempted robbery revealed that the highway
'fnen had concealed an accomplice in the coffin and had planned to put dummy
screws in the lid, but Iby mistake had screwed the lil down tight. The scrap
ing Jones heard was that of a small saw the robber used to cutl the screws.
The origin of the rriysterious telIephone metussage to( Sergeant Therriault and
the remarkable plhelllnomena of the wire mnessages lit cotde to Jones have not
been solved.
Therriault uawoke at headquarters with a start, early today, and gasped
as he recalled the renmarkableli gold rubbeery attei mpt. lie looked down at his
desk anldsaw pread oullt i fronlt of hilli it a' u.yf The Missotulan.
"What song title fits this picture" caught his eye, as well as '$500 in goldl,
free to all our reaulers.' "
IHe had ecen play ig 'T'li ( ite of of Mtg anid Story to win some of the
splendid gold prizes offered by this paher and--the miysterious gold robL)ers

SUGGESTIONS MADE
BY ENGINEER
ON RATES
E. W. KRAMER WRITES COMMIS
SION THINGS HE INTENDED TO
TELL IT AT HEARING.
During the hearing of the Montana
railroad and public service commission
here last week on the rates for elce
tricity in Missoula and the Hitter Root,
the people of the Orchard Homes see
tion were represented by E. W.
Kranmer. Mr. Kramer is district engi
neer of the forest service, but aIted
simply in the capa:city ,f a citizen
when tiappeallring before thel colinrissill.
On the lust day of the hearing he ex
pected to ask some qluestions arnd Iiimake
some sugestions before the commdission.
H{e understood that there was to b, an
afternoon session the last day, but the
hearing ended it noon. So the things
Mr. Kramer rhad to say have been in
corporated in the following letter,
which he sent to thl.e 'nmissi, lloners
yesterday at Helena:
The Letter.
The Montana IHilrhoad and Public
Utilities Commnnission, Tlen'lc. Mont.
Gentlemen: I desire to submit the fol
lowing argument n sonme of the evi
dence brought forth at the investiga
tlion held in Mlssoula in regard to rates
charged by the Missoula Light ind
Every
home should
have a bottle of
D Pure
Malt Whiskey
at hand-the most effect
ive tonic-stimulant and
invigoratcr
known to
. science.
SPo,.,r 0l1uiiplny fotr powcr alnd electric
lighting. Whin the cominlmission ad
journed at notn, January tt', I \'ats of
the opinion ithat the aidjourfnuent 'was
olily until 2 o'clock, and that tlere
'ould heil t chancl'e for tie to trinig for
ward the argmenllllts itn person which
aire llpresentet d in this letter:
'The records will show that Mr. Phil
lips, wh(n cross-qutestio ed by noyeelf,
stated that in estimating the atnnual
texpelnse of the 'company ia dpreclation
had been alltowed ot tl, c('ost of the
Mlssoula secondlary distributing sys
tlem of 6 9-3 per cen'tt, which was plyae
ing the life of tle system at 17 years.
HIt also stated that the Ioperation cost
sulbmttlted to the coimmision covered
ithe ntile host of kteeling this dystern
in r'tpah', lie stated that the deprecia
tlon was suppolsed to take care of the
weaitr and tear which would not be ap
parent iand could not be relpatrod.
W'hile I agree with hint that it would
lb fair to allow tin item for depreia
tion in thle value of machinery, build
ings, etc'., \'teven though they are kept
in repair, for the reason that the ma
.1 chihor'y bIclomes auntiqulated, or, eve'n
1tihough irepaired, that both the buldl
igsa, and the' nollhhinery finally become
Ius-.,lsy, I a.tlnntot agree that this applies
e eithr to prilimary or seconldary trans
nlisSin, lines. Most of the lines that
l are in olper'lation nolw have been in
a rl'tation for at period of eight or ten
ytamrs It was lby understanding of his
evihdence, thlat his figtures for operation
tasl includted the entire cost of repairs
In, th'mse lines for the year 1913, or pos
sibly for tile last fiscal year of the
atolltanty, which is approximately tthe
a It seems reasonable that the cost of
rep'airs for the period under consider
- aliot would be as great for the satme
amount of line hs they ever will be,
- ven when tlh lilies are older, and that
s the figures gIven Include replacing
dl wortn-out or decayed pates and other
n material. There is no part of the
tratnsimissin line that is likely to be
conme antiquated or is likely to be worn
out all at once, as Is the case of the
imachinery and buildings. In all proba
lility the line will be In as good condi
tion at the end of the 17-year period
as it was when constructed, and to al
low the company to charge off the
transmission lines every 17 years seems
ridiculous. Unfortunately I omitted
tiaking Mr. Phillips if this same per
cent of depreciation (6 2-3 per cent)
was allowed against all buildings, ma
necessary to call the attention of the
Icommission to the fact that if this is
the case it is entirely too high a per
centage, since the life of a building
should not be considered at less that 50
years and of a dam 75 years.
I desire to call particular attention of
the commnission to the value placed on
the property at Bonner, namely, $620,
000, for the dim, power house, lands
flooded and, hydraulic and electrical.,
machinery within the building, not in
cluding the - step-up transformers or
the transmission line to Missoula. The
installed machinery in the tower plant
was given as 2,400 kilowatt, which is
equivalent to about 3,200 horsepower,
which places the unit cost per horse
power at $194,'vwhich I believe your en
,gineers will agree is extremely high
when it is considered that it does not
include step-up transformers or any
distribution, system whatsoever.
Whether or not there are any unusual ;
conditions at Bonner which would jus
tify this extremely high unit cost, I am
unable to state. It seems to me, how
ever, that a careful investigation of
this valuation of the Bonner plant
should be made by the engineers of the
commission.
The extreme importance in fixing
this cost will bhe readily seen from the
following:
If the cost per horsepower per year,
generated at the switchboards at the
BIonner plant, it c'oml)uted to he $33,
this first cost must be multiplied by
about four on account of the load fac
tor for power used for lighting purposes
being only about 25 per cent, and the
result multiplied again by about two on
account of approximately 50 per cent
loss in distribution. Of course, I am
not giving these percentage:t as the
- orrect percentages, but am using them
a only as an example.
a Mr. Phillips stated, I believe, that the
load factor of the entire system was 25
per cent. I believe your engineer will 4
agree with nme that this is a very small 1
Sload factor--the average for most
t plants of this kind being 50 or 60 per :
r( cent. This low a load factor, of course,
r would naturally he expeted where al
mlst all the power was used for light
ilg purposes, since most of the1 power
would remain idle for three-fourths of
, the day. For tills reason I believe an
Y effort should be made bly the company
i. to develop a market for the power for
1. other purposes than lighting. I be
t lieve Mr. Phillips sta1ed that the power
sold for othert porphses, or what he
called piower purposies, showed a 'loss.
I believe the explanation of this can be
easily found when it is considered that
She charges this power at 1 cent a ikilo
- watt at Ionner, the same as charged
for lighting purposes, regardless of the
1, fact that the power used for meters
h rarely comes on the peak of the load,
s and that all power used for this pur
poIc tends to increase the load factor.
I wish to state, in order to explain
my position, that I am a resident of
Orchard Homes, a community of small
e five-acre tracts beginning at the city
n limits of Mlssoula and extending about
three miles beyond the city limits.
There is a transmission line running
it out through the districts supplying
lights to the Hawthorne school. Sev
oral of my neighbors and myself have
requested the Missoula Light and
h Power company to build branch lines
from their main litne to our farms.
These branch lines would be about one
half mile long and probably have an
average of about four customers for
lights on each line and probably at
least one customer for power. On ac
count of being a civil engineer several
of my neighbors requested me to ap
ipear at the meeting of the commission
and see what I could do In regard to
rates for Dowel purposes in our com
munity. The Missoula Light and
Power company has refused to build
iranch lines to us until they knew
ýd what rates would be fixed by the com
mission. We, of course, do not want
Ithe rates fixed so low that the com
pany will not build the lines, and at
thle same time we do not want the rates
so high thait we cannot afford to use
ie the power if the lines are built. What
I request, thier(efore, is that the com
mission give this matter careful con
sideratlon and fix a rate for power used
in tmoters and incubators in our com
'i munlity.
d- I will state, for the bhtlefit of the
of commission, that incubators are us
IS 11ally rimn n the month of March, April
*re and May, when there is plenty of run
s- ning water In the stretam, and the plant
ch can he run to its full capacity. The
load factor of all incubator is 100 per
il- cent during the period that it runs.
If, The moters would be used for pumping
tal wnter and for grinding feed, and would
on undoubtedly be run in the day time,
he and need not take any power on the
's- peakl load. I might say, also, that a
.c- two to five horsepower motor would
rs. probably be installed on these small
ist tracts and that the ,demand would
ed Probably be two holsepOwer, not in
hm eluding the power for incubators and
a- lights.
lie Yours very truly,
E- . W. KRAMER.

ATl A BIt SIRE
A SALE IS
ATTRACTING MUCH PUBLIC IN
TEREST AND ATTENTION WITH
GENEROUS PATRONAGE.
One of The Missoullan's representa
tives visited the sale at the Donohue
store yesteiday with instructions to
give a strict written account of his
impressions of the sale, the interest of
the people who attended, the method
of the store's handling of the sale, and
of its success from every angle in his
ability to discern. He was to visit the
sale as a merely curious minded per
son bent on no other business than of
seeing, receiving impressions and re
cording them for use in the columns
of this newspaper.
Just before 10 o'clock he set out from
The Missoulian office and was at
tracted by a crowd of women In front
of the Donohue store entrance at Main
and Higg.ns. . At the Higgins avenue
1 entrance there was discovered a simi
I lar throng, waitink for the doors of the
t store to be opened. Taking a Mis
r soulian from his coat pocket the repre
sentative turned its pages to the ad
vertisements which heralded the sale.
The first which attracted attention
r were the two pages which faced one
f another in the paper's center. It an
i nounced the sale and its many fea
v tures in attractive, clear, concise
r fashion and was alluring in every de
- tail. The next advertisement noted
r dealt strictly with bargains for men,
a Half prices were to prevail in this
I section on nearly every line of ready
e to-wear articles for men and young
t men In the department.
Looking about, the 'reporter noted
the expressions of those gathered about
him on bargain-seeking bent. They
seemed interested then in only one
event-=the opening of the doors. As
the courthouse clock announced the
presence of 10 a. in:, the doors opened
and the eager buyers rushed into the
store. The store was as ready as is
a well staged drama when its curtain
is raised. Every agent of the Dono
hue store was in. readiness and as
eager to give service as the buyers
were tp receive- it. That impressed
itself upon the mind of the reporter
first of all. It `old of careful organ
ization on the part of the store's man
agement-the first essential of good
business had been carefully provided.
From the time the doors opened the
eager rush invaded every one of the
store's department(. The elevator
worked briskly up' and down, to the
basement, where 'were shoes at re
duced prices for teeryone; to the sec
ond floor, where women and misses
sought bargains in millinery, ready-to
wear suits and coats, waists, etc.; to
the top floor, where rugs, carpets,
linoleum, trunks, etc., were found at
greatly reduced prices. On the main
floor the buyers were most eager.
There were bargains in notions, toilet
accessories, yard goods, laces, em
broideries and stuffs of that sort. On
this floor also, men and young men
tried on suits, overcoats and hats and
purchased rapidly and freely. Get
ting out of the way, the reporter
watched the bundle department for
several minutes. The work was rapid
-it had to be so. The purchases
came incessantly, the correct change
made and goods wrapped and returned
quickly. Going back to the second
floor again it became apparent that
the departments there were as heavily
"swamped" as were the first floor ones.
There was simply no way to attend
the wants of everyone. The corps
of saleswomen attended rapidly, cour
teously, patiently.
And so it continued all through the
remaining business hours of the day.
The reporter dropped into the store
many times during the daylight and
evening hours, and there was no ap
parent difference in the eagerness of
those in attendance. The faces were
strange at each visit. In the evening'
the men's department was busier than
had been the rule during the daylight
hours, but that was 'the only remark
able difference in the attendance of
the clean-up of bargains.
The reporter talked to the store's
proprietor and to his advertising man
and to the heads of' some of the de
partments and to the buyers them
selves and formed some ideas of what
makes a store's sales successful.
There must be confidence in the
store's ability to fulfill its advertised
promises. There must be good mer
chandise to attract buyers' interest
and desire to possess this merchandise.
There must be need for the articles to
be sold, no matter what the sale's
figures. The public must be in
formed of the details and time of the
sale. All of these necessary elements
where provided in the Donohue clean
up event. The advertising had been
plentifully carried on in both The
Missoulian and Tl'he Sentinel. The
stocks were clean and desirable and
up-to-the-minute in every respect.
And there is no surer way of telling
that the merchandise on sale was de
sired by the buyers of the city, nor
that the public had confidence in the
store's ability to fulfill its promises
than the patronage accorded yester
day. It seemed to be unanimous.
Those of the purchasers to whom the
reporter addressed himself, spoke
highly of the character of the sale and
the store's management's methods in
preparing a sale that extended to
every department, and capable of at
tracting such public interest,
The Donohue store could have re
ceived no more decisive ovation of
public appreciation than the success
which was attendant at the opening of
its. first sale event in 9.14.
