Dr. Friedmann's announcement of his discovery before the Berlin Medical so ciety last November created a sensation and the fact that he refusedto describehis serum, which it is claimed will cure all but the most advanced cases of tuberculosis, cast some doubts as to the authenticity of his discovery, although, representatives of various governments were sent here to investigate the matter.

PHTHISIS CURE therapeutic value and will close the first stage of one of the most bitter controversies that have raged since the alleged discovery of Prof. Koch of th tuberculosis germ. Dr. Friedmann announced that h will turn his culture over to the gov ernment with the suggestion that th imperial authorities designate a num ber of physicians to whom he will, by lectures and demonstrations, instruc how to use for the treatment of tuber culosis. Extract (.frms from Patients. In order to win or secure Dr. Fried mann's secret some of his brothers scientists resorted to extreme meas urcs, as, for example, the extraction from patients of the germs which Dr, Friedmann had injected and thus seek lng to get hia culture of live, non-viru lent bacilli. This moved Dr. Friedmann lmmedl ately to give his culture to the govern ment health authorities and he is also considering the question of personally taking It to America in the near future. This Is shown by the fact that Dr. A. B. Held of Pittsburgh. Pa., who came t Berlin in the hope of returning home with a sufficient culture to save his consumptive wife, was today handed several vials of a culture from the laboratory of Dr. Pierskowskl which it was stated were Friedmann bacilli. an attack of rheumatism slnee last Saturday. Little Improvement has been shown in his condition today, and they hope for his speedy recovery. Otto Knoerzer, president of the O. K. Champion potato Machinery company, announced ' today that he would improve his Hohman street property at the corner of Muenich court, with a three-story building this spring. He intends the erection of a three-story business block costing in the neighborhood of $30,000. and intends to let the excavation contract as soon as he receives bids. The lot to be Improved is 25x125 feet. NEED OF CHARITY LESS THAN USUAL Open Winter Reduces Want to Minimum. Although charity workers of , Hammond find plenty of opportunity for an out'.et for their generosity, they are unanimous that the demands upon them are not nearly so heavy this year as they were lost winter. The open weather is largely responsible for this, as the bread earner who work at outside occupations in many a needy family has been able to work until now, and the provision of fuel Is not such a hardship in small incomes. Even the recent cold spell did not bring any dire cases of distress to the front, but tl is is accounted for by the fact that it was of short duration. Miss Tibbotts, the Investigator In Trustee Becker's office, says that recently she lias had some demand for

HOHMAN BUSINESS BLK. IN PROSPECT

COMBINE BUSINESS MID

Beginning next Monday the new half time" high school commercial course and shop plan goes into effect for the benefit of those boys and girls who want either to devote two years o a business training or learn a trade while taking the regular high school course. In order that student may be admited to these courses It will not be ab solutely required that they show an eighth grade diploma, the school board and faculty having decided to give ap plicants who had left school to enter business, credit for the experience that hey have gained since leaving school. This arrangement will afford a splendid oopportunity to those who dropped their school work with the sixth year, or those who would not have finished under the old schedule, to specialize in some particular work. Already eight students have signifies their intention of taking advantage of coal, and private charity organizations have been able to give relief in cases where nothing had been asked of the township office. DELINQUENT TAXES MORE THAN YEAR AGO The delinquent tax sale this year will take place on February 10th, the second Monday in the month, as pre scribed by law. As compared to last year, the list this year is larger. Speaking .of this Deputy Treasurer William Kolb, in the Hammond city hall, said this morning that it is rather difficult to aecount for. He attributed it to some extent to the fact that new suh-divisions have been opened, and that people who are not ye$ familiar with the working of the laws had bought real estate last year. The increase, he said, might, however, be expected with the increased population and the larger number of real estate deals. ELKS WILL HAVE SOCIAL CELEBRATION Everything in Readiness for Elaborate Program. Everything Is in readiness for the Hammond Elks' social celebration, to be held at their club rooms this evening and according to the committee on arrangements, the event will be on of the most elaborate festivities of the season. Special invitations have been forwarded to each member and preparations have been made to care for a large .attendance. An, excellent program has been, pre-, pared,, including the best of vaudeville entertainment and music. A number of local Elks who will be prepared to furnish plenty of amusement have volunteered their services. Following the entertainment, a choice menu will be served. KILLED BY ENGINE; WAS NO FOUL PLAY Inquest Does Away With Suspicion. Robert Lainster of Lafayette, Ind., who was killed by a Monon j switch engine at the Fayette street crossing last week, did not meet with foul play, according to the testimony that was brought out in the inquest. The engineer stated that he saw Lainster walk from behind the crossing watchman's shanty as his engine neared the Fayette street crossing. As the engine crossed the street Lainster stepped in front of it. A deep cut across Lainster's chest first caused suspicion of foul play, but it developed that the wound was made by his body being thrown againart a sharp switch. Lainster had both legs broken off and died at St. Margaret's Hospital several hours later. His remains were sent to his former home at Lafayette for interment. CLAIMS REED USED INSULTING LANGUAGE Harry C. Reed a foreman in the V. S. Metals refining plant of East Chicago was made the defendant today . In a suit brought by Mrs. Jule G. Martin of Michigan avenue on the charge of provocation. The case was tried before Judge E. P. Ames, who took it under advisement for forty-eight hours. The suit Is the outgrowth of a telephone conversation between Mrs. Martin and Mr. Reed, relative the latter's tenancy in Mrs. Martin's house in East Chicago, she charging him with being abusive and insulting to her. Mr. Reed admitted that a rather heated conversation took place, but denied having used insulting language toward Mrs. Martin. COMMISSIONERS HOLD A JOINT MEETING The Lake and Porter county commissioners held a joint meeting at Crown Point yesterday to adjust mat ters on the Harrison road which was built for two miles along the county line. The contract was for $7,600, and the cost was equally divided between the two counties. The meeting yecterday was merely to settle up matters on the contract. The road was built by S. Smith of Hobart. Charged With Grave Crime. James McConnel appeared before Judge Green of West Hammond yesterday afternoon and swore out a warrant for the arrest of Henry E. Markley on a serious charge preferred by a young West Hammond girl. Unable to furnish bond Markley was compelled to spend the nighat the West Hammond police station where he will have

the high school apprentice plan, and beginning next Monday they will spend a half day in school and the balance in the W. B. Conkey plant to learn a trade. The Conkey plant was the first local concern to enter into a contract with the school board to offer these inducements, and It really offers more than the Hchool board requires for a minimum. There are also a number of applicants for the two-year business course. F. D. McElroy, principal of the high school, said today that he was satisfied that once the boys and girls of Ham mond and their parents appreciate the far-reaching benefits of these new high school courses that many pupils who had quit before reaching the eighth grade, and others who did not intend going through the high school would take advantage of the system. The public schools begin their second semester next Monday. a preliminary hearing before Judge Green this afternoon. Back from Trip. R. S.

When a woman suffering from some form of feminine disorder is told that an operation is necessary, it of course frightens her. The very thought of the hospital operating table and the surgeon's knife strikes terror to her heart, and no wonder. It is quite true that some of these troubles may reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but thousands of women have avoided the necessity of an operation by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. This fact is attested by the grateful letters they write to us after their health has been restored.

These Two Women Prove Our Claim.

Cary, Maine," I feel it a duty I owe to all Buffering' women to tell what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did for me. One year ago I found myself a terrible sufferer, I had pains in both (sides and such a soreness 1 could scarcely staigbten up at times. My back ached, I had no appetite and was so nervous I co-aid not sleep, then I would be so tired mornings that I could scarcely get around. It seemed almost impossible to move or do a bit of work and I thought I never would be any better until I submitted to an operation, I commenced taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and soon felt like a new woman. I had no pains, slept well, had good appetite and was fat and could do almost

Now answer this question if you can. Why should a woman submit to a surgical operation without first giving Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial ? You know that it has saved many others why should it fail in your case?

For 30 years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy for female ills. No one sick with woman's ailments does justice to herself if she does not try this famous medicine made from roots and herbs, it has restored so many suffering women to bealth. JfcWrite to LYDIA E.PINKIIAM MEDICIXE CO. V (CONFIDENTIAL) LYNN, MASS., for advice. Your letter will be opened, read and answered by a woman and held in strict confidence.
