Mr. Howard will not only demonstrate the SEARCHLIGHT UTILITY RETURN FLUE FLOOR HEATER and the HOT BLAST AIR TIGHT FLORENCE, but he will expose the deception that has been practiced upon the public by the stove manufacturers and the stove dealers on this base-burner question, and the smoke and gas consuming question. J. B. HOWARD.

Lon Healy, the composer, and Roscoe Wilson, the Princess singer, went to Chicago today where they will visit two musical publishing houses to which they had been recommended by George Ade, the playwright, and there submit some of Lon’s recent compositions, which Mr. Wilson will sing. Lon writes with splendid apti-' tude and embodies little plots and sentiments in his songs that will doubtless make them very popular jf he can get them published and it is with the expectation that the visit to Chicago was made. Last August Floyd Meyers and Lon Healy were on a ship on Lake Michigan returning from South Haven when a very severe storm came up and for a time it seemed certain that the ship would be wrecked. All the passengers were made sick and the sickness has had a lasting effect on both the Rensselaer boys who have never fully recovered and the stomach trouble Floyd is now experiencing and which caused him to return from Franklin college, seems to be due to the experience they had on the lake two months ago.

Hear what Congressman Crumpacker has to say about the charge made by his opponent, John B. Peterson, that he paved the way for the steel corporation to fill in the lake front at Gary and thus gain valuable land. You will find that the authority for filling in the lake came from the state and not from the government and that Mr. Peterson was himself a lobbyist for the steel corporation when the bill was up for action at Indianapolis. Inform yourself about the, two men who are running for congress by hearing Mr. Crumpacker speak at the opera house tomorrow night. The specialist who came last evening to see Henry Amsler also examined Jay Wood, the little son of Mr. and Mrs. Van Wood. He was operated on more than four months ago to have a fluid drawn off from the pleural membrane about the lungs and has ever since been compelled to wear a drainage tube to keep the pus drained away. Although the operation was more than four months ago about two tablespoons of the pus is drained away twice daily. The surgeon approved the local physician’s treatment and said he believed the lung was filling out and that the boy will be eventually restored to health, but was unable to tell how much longer it would prove necessary to maintain the tube, drainage. The little fellow is only 5 years of age. Richard Bennigaa, unaware that bis machine had caught fire from a short circuit, and was blazing, drove a taxicab through the business section of Ft. Wayne. When the fire had burned to where he could feel the heat, he escaped from the seat and turned in an alarm.
