ON TRAIL OF THE DESPERADO
Lait Trace of Him at Farmhouse East
of Missouri Valley.
BAIN STOPS W0EK OF HOUNDS
Funeral of Officer Wilson Is Held
Today Officer Richardson Is
Improving; and Doctors
Hope for Recovery,
Although the desperado who shot Police
Officers Wilson and Richardson last Sun
day night is still at large there was strong
hopes last night of some of the posses
being able to overtake the fugitive today.
Yesterday afternoon word was received
that a man answering the description of
the fugitive had applied at the farm house
of K E. Jones, a few miles east of Mis
souri Valley, late Monday night for some
thing to eat. The fact that the rural
telephone wires ware not working well
Monday night and early Tuesday was
responsible for the delay In the Information
reaching the local authorities. The report
was shortly followed by another from De
tective Weir, who had been to the place
and found that the foptprlnts of the
stranger who had been to the Jones place
corresponded with those found In and about
Crescent and the corn fields where the
posses searched Monday.
Blooilhonadi Tried Again.
At once on receiving the report from De
tective Weir, Sheriff Canning decided to go
td the place and try the bloodhounds again.
Thomas Metcalf placed his automobile
again at the disposal of the officers and at
6 o'clock last evening Sheriff Canning, Dep
uty Sheriff McAffery and the man In charge
of the dogs started for Jones' place near
Missouri Valley In Mr. Metcalf's automo
bile. Word later showed that they reached
there about 7:30 o'clock and that the hounds
at once took the trail In fine shape and
were going splendidly when the storm broke
and caused the party to return to Missouri
Valley.
The trail, which the officers who are out
believe the best struck yet, led east from
the Jones farm towards Beebetown, and
the members of the posse learned from
farmers In that neighborhood that a man
answering the description of the desperado
had been seen making his way east through
cornfields and along ditches, evidently
anxious to avoid meeting any one or being
seen.
Scouring Entire Country,
Returning to Missouri Valley last night,
members of the posse under Sheriff Can
ning scattered to the adjoining towns,
Woodbine, Logan and other places from
where they, with augmented forces uftor
a night's rest which they badly needed,
will start early this morning to surround
the entire territory, all meeting at a com
mon center. If a trail la struck tho
hounds will again be brought Into ser
vice. Sergeant Jack O'Ncll, who with De
tective Richardson Joined the sheriff's
party at Missouri Valley last night, tele
phoned to police headquarters at 8 p. m.
that the trail struck from the Jones
place appeared to be tha most promising
yet and O'Nell spoke vary confidently of
the long-continued search bringing re
sults today.
The following officers have been out on
the hunt for the fugitive ever since early
Monday morning: Detective Weir, Detec
tive Richardson, Sergeant ' Q'Netl and Pa
trolmen Gallagher and Btetnhofel. Deputy
Sheriff Woolman has also been out since
early Monday morning.
Fnneral of Wilson.
The funeral service of Detective George
Wilson was held this morning at 10 o'clock
j at the Broadway Methodist church, the
services being conducted by Rev. James
I O'May, the' pastor. Burial was In Walnut
Hill cemetery. Pallbearers from the mem
bers of the police force were selected yes
terday. Several relatives of the deceased
officer arrived In the city yesterday to at
tend tha funeral.
Patrolman W. H. Richardson Is much
Improved and there ar now strong hopes
for his recovery unless complications
I ensue. He rested comparatively easy
. last night and was ablo for tha
j first time since being wounded to take
some nourishment. Richardson Is a man
'of splendid physique, and this, coupled
with his courage and determination to get
well, give the attending physicians great
encouragement.

to come. My own course Is clear. Act
ing upon the advice of my attorney, which
I believe to be absolutely legal, I hold
that I, as the mayor of San Franc'sco,
have the sole power of appointments to
vacancies In municipal offices and that
the appointive acta of Edwin B. Taylor
are void and incapable of legal sup
port." Mr. Schmtts complained that his private
mall la being opened by Mayor Taylor.
He exhibited several letters addressed to
"Hon. Eugene E. Schmltz, San Francisco,

Why Some Advertising"
Campaigns Fail
Some advertisers think that all there is to advertising is Copy (that is, advertisements)
in connection with Media (the publications used) . It is because they think only thh far
that many campaigns fall down, and there is report of another advertising failure.
THERE is no doubt that Copy and Media ar
prim essentials.
W prove our recognition of Copy Importance
by maintaining a highly skilled staff of advertise
ment writers.
These men command larga salaries. We ar
compelled to pay a high figure for copy service to
secure the necessary talent.
Wa prove the importance of Media by maintaining
our RECORD OF RESULTS.
Thla is a record of inquiry, ceA and os results
on mail-order advertising and non-mail-order ad
vertising (general publicity). This record covers an
unbroken record of over sis years, and is maintained
at enormous coat in cash, time, and in th detail of
its compilation.
But to stop with advertisements and publication
alon is to disregard entirely the vital factors per
sonal sales co-operation, printed matter promotion
or inquiry handling, as the class of advertising may
require.
The General Advertiser's
Problem
The success of a general advertiser cannot be any
greater than his grip on the. retailer and the co
operation bis retailer gives his goods.
The lost motion resulting from anmpplUJ catfl for
advertised products, because the dealer is not
stocked, is easy to see.
Likewise, it is apparent that a dealer coerced against
his will into handling a product by brute-force adver
tising to the consumer is a menace as long as this
dealer has an opportunity to substitute.
Therefore, it becomes evident that permanent suc
cess for any generally advertised product depends
on thorough Attribution coupled with the whole
some and hearty co-operation of the dealer, quite as
much as upon good media, good advertising and
reasonable profits.
Lord & Thomas have had signal success in merging
advertising and- sales departments into a smoothly
working unit, resulting in the complete utilization
of advertising in lining up the retail trade, and in
having the entire sales plan progress smoothly.
They are so markedly successful in this important
respect by reason of their knowledge of trad con
ditions snd their grasp of manufacturers' require
ments, in having th advertising plan consictenl
with the manufacturers' profits, territory, etc.
The Mail-Order Advertiser's
Problem
The success of the mail-order advertiser I In direct
proportion to his facility in turning inquiries into cash.
Th veriest amateur can explain that the inquiry
Is productive or not, according to whether tha
catalogue is good and letters efficient. -Failure
creeps in through unwieldy office system,
criss-crossing of department work, failure to stop
literature or follow-up when a prospect becomes a
customer, snd in many other similar ways.
Failure also becomes mors than a possibility when
cost per sale is lost sight of, and the actual pro
ductiveness of the individual paper or advertise
ment ia not definitely known.
Here, again. Lord & Thomas' broad esperlenco,
gained in an almost unbroken chain of successes,
teaches them to construct the Inquiry bringer, what
publication to use, how and when and at what
interval to follow the inquiry, what simple plan
may be followed to secure the order, and how to
eliminate wast in th inquiry-handling method.
Every business has its own peculiar and remark
able requirements. It is a self-evident fact that no
ready-made plan can be formulated at long rang
for the handling of any business.
Yet so many industries are to a degree similar in
their advertising requirements that any advertising
problem may be referred to Lord (& Thomas
with the customer's absolute assurance that tha
advertising plan submitted will not only be highest
in efficiency, but most economical in its execution.

ham last November and a program drawn
up which Included demands for an eight
hour day. Increase In wage and the recog

their demands, and resolutions passed to
call a strike In August, If th men should

th railroad oompanlea concerned. Both

rector always were ready to dlacuas griev
ance with th employe themselves, but

to preserve for the director of hi com
pany and th ataff they employed the "right
