RACE TRACK CASE NEARING FINISH
Court Overruled Defendant’s Motion ,to Dismiss—Hyams and Sheetz Get Out of Case. »
The race track ease which was again resumed Monday afternoon is nearing an end and it seems quite probable that it will be through by ,Wednesday afternoon, and that the numerous Lake county lawyers and others will be able to eat Christmas turkey at home and not have it mixed with a discussion of. lumber bills and jockey clubs.
The plaintiffs have devoted most of their tiafie to trying to establish the existence of a partnership, while the defendants have sought to show that instead of a partnership the jockey club was a corporation, chartered in (South Dakota. A number of ruMngs of the court have seemed favorable to the plaintir’s case and when at the conclusion of the plaintiff’s testimony the defendants moved to dismiss the case; Judge Hanley ruled against the motion. He also ruled out the charter of incorporation. W. J. Sheetz, of Gary, and H. A Hyams, of Indiana Harbor, were dismissed as defendants, the plaintiffs having failed to show that they were in any manner connected with the alleged partnership. Sheetz and Hyams are said to be the two men who originated and carried into effect the “speak easy” form of placing a bet. on the traces. This plan was so successfully worked at the track that Walter Fabdng, the prosecutor of Porter county, could not even discover that there was any betting . The Republican described this style of betting last summer. The baakmaker stands with a program on which the odds are marked. He has two or three aides standing near and the bettor edges up and mumbles the name or number of the horse he wants to bet on. One of the aides grabs the money and another records the bet on a tablet in his pocket, taking the initials, of the better. No tickets are issued but if your horse wins you hunt up the big Irish guy with the flannel shirt, mention your initials and the amount you bet and get an envelope with the cash. Myams and Sheetz say it was working splendidly when the troops arrived. Sheetz and Hyams were reported to have each invested SSOO in the promotion of the track, but no one swore that they had and their release followed. , . Peter Crumpacker, Tim Englehardt and Clarence Bretch and A. F. Knotts, along with B. R. Hyman and William Daley, are now the principal defendants.

Shocked the Teacher But She Will Probably Recover.
In reporting a school contest held in connection with the Newton county corn show at Kentland last week the Goodland Herald said that the Brook school exhibited three cabarets. It had aimed to say three “tabarets,” and imagine the shock to’the sensitive feminine teacher when she read that.her scholar had given three “cabarets,” which means places where liquor is sold and drank, but the more modern meaning of the term being a place for eating and drinking where entertainment of music and dancing, often quite undecorous, takes place. The teacher was terribly shocked but it is probable that she will recover.

Game Warden Says There Will Be No Sunday Hunting.
This year will be the last in which Indiana nimrods can engage in hunting on Sunday. Rodney Fleming, of Ft. Wayne, chief of the Indiana fish and game wardens, has announced that he will not allow Sunday shooting next year. This is due to the protests made by the farmers of the state against the practice. The farmers, however, do not ask that Mr. Fleming stop Sunday shooting this year. “Of course,” said Mr. Fleming, “I will have to stop Sunday shooting when the farmesr demand it, as the law specifically states that Sunday hunting is illegal. Heretofore, this feature of the law has not been rigidly enforced, as public sentiment has seemed to favor Sunday hunting. Next year, though, we will notallow any shooting on Sunday.
“I really believe, though, that the elimination of Sunday hunting will work to the advantage of hunters generally. It is Sunday hunting that particularly agitates the farmers. When hunters shoot on their grounds on Sunday it makes the farmers mad and they get after the hunters on week days, too. If the hunters did not shoot on their grounds on Sundays, I don’t believe they would care how much hunting was done on their land on the week days.”
Democratic Editor Scents Equal Suffrage Near at Hand.
Carroll County Citizen-Times. President Wilson’s statement that he is not at liberty to urge a woman suffrage amendment to the constitution until that amendment receives the indorsement of his party puts the matter squarely up to the next democratic national convention. We hope that gathering will take the rather plain hint. Equal suffrage is coming; It is as certain as death and taxes. Within a few years it is sure to be one of the practical questions of the hour in many states, and perhaps in the nation itself.. The party which tries to defeat this just ana Inevitable reform is doomed to a long season of retirement from power.
