The bandit apparently did not see Patrolman A. C, Hanson standing across the strect. Rogovoy uttered a plercing shriek, which called Hanson's at- tention—and the chase was on. The thug managed to outdistance the fleet-footed officer and made good his escape. Rogovoy thinks it was the same man this time who held him up threes months ago near the | same corner, Another bandit driving an old automobile was more successful. He managed to hold up the Fairview garage, 9235 Rainier ave. and got $30 from the attendant, W. R, Johnston. ‘Then he escaped to the north in the car, | While Ingvald Peterson, of the | Commodore hotel, was shaking a | wicked foot at a Sunday night dance in the Norway hall, a pick- pocket searched his clothes and | pilfered $250 from them, LIKE ELECTRIC COOKERY HERE How electric cooking {s growing in popularity Is indicated by the large |number of Seattle's finest apartment |houses equipped by the Puget Sound | Power & Light company during 1923, according to R. W. Clark, Seattle sales manager for the company, Sixteen of Seattle's newest apart- ment houses haye ordered all kitch- ens equipped with these electrie ranges, making a total of 597 ranges. Those apartment houses already com. pleted in which electric ranges have been installed are: Lexington-Con- cord, Dupar, Fairfax, Killarney, Flemington, Phillips Manor, Haw- thorne Place, Wilsonian, Stephen- berg, Coleman and Andrews, while five other large apartment houses now under construction have ordered these ranges. This is declared to be ® record unparalleled in the Pacific Northwest, “More than 15,000 electric ranges are now in use in this state,” said Mr, Clark. “This is conclusive proof that electric cooking has long passed the experimental stage and is now a proven convenience and comfort for thousands of housewives, “It has been found that electric ranges eliminate kitchen ditidgery and give the housewife more time for amusement, rest and education. At the same time she is able to prepare meals quicker and better. She has an even steady heat at all times and heat that can be regulated to any desired degree and which can be shut off automatically at the proper time, “During 1924 we look for an even greater demand for electric ranges than was experienced during the last year.
