Gary News

Mr. and Mrs. Caldwell returned last evening; from a short visit in Chicngo. Mrs. Miller and the little folks who have been 'at Kouts for a short vacation, returned last evening. George Hay was in South Chicago yesterday morning securing additional supplies for the boys. Mrs. Green spent part of yesterday in Hammond. She intends to move back there until the work is a little farther along here. Reid Chambers is now with the Lake Shore, having accepted the position proffered him as helper to Mr. Wichter. Bloom & Co. expect to begin the erection of the houses, for which they were awarded the contract, the early part of next week. Dr. Jones reports several accidents of minor nature. One man was badly bruised by a falling tree, but will probably be able to get around in a short while. The Great Lakes Dredging Company loaned Mr. Gatens their small crane to assist in getting together his large one. The sixty-foot boom has been unloaded and will be put in place today. It will be ready for use by Tuesday. A. F. Knotts shipped all of his furniture and office equipment from the Chicago offices several days ago and beginning next week will locate here. He will, of course, continue to reside jat Hammond, but will direct matters from here instead of from Chicago. A great deal of satisfaction is being expressed on every hand over the decision of the county commissioners, in which they confirmed the annexation to us of the additional five thousand acres. Considering the circumstances, it was, of course, the only decision that fair minded men could make. The contractors who have the construction of the South Side sewers, were out yesterday completing preliminary arrangements and will begin their work early next week. The grand lines .have, been run. for, the storm sewer to the east. The erection of the bulk-head will begin Monday and 'this, will probably be the first sewer put in on the South Side. Two large concrete mixers are being erected in the machine shop cut close to where the locomotive crane is being assembled. These are to be used for mixing the concrete that will go into the shop foundation, the twelve car loads of brick have been unloaded and additional material is expected today. Grading is being done along the brick shod switch to the south for a lumber yard. A spur will be run from the switch and the company will store the large quantities of lumber and similar materials in this yard that are being used in the con struction work south of the present B. & O. tracks. Post & Ilirsch, U. of YV. who have been running lines for some time on the South Side are each to be placed in charge of a gang next week. A gang consists of several rod-men and helpers and under the gang comes the force of men who do the con struction work. The work they will be in charge of is on the sewers and includes the setting of grades and running lines for the alloys in which the sewers are to be built.. SLEEP HABITS OF ANIMALS. The Monkey Xever Loses Its Instinct of Feur. "When a monkey sleeps ho picks out the highest perch he can fiud." said a a animat trainer. "When the only home of the monkey was a forest, he lived always in deadly fear of the lion. A live m.mkey is the choicest morsel on The menu of the king of beasts. Although the monkey is wise and knows that in a ro, the lions are securely caged, the fear is born in him and he sUvps en the high perch. "The lioness, when free from family cares, is prone to lie on its back with its legs stretched up straight in the air nuTL paws pendent. The lion, when xhe excitement of the day is gone, stretches itself out ihitly on its side v:th paws turned in and twitches and throbs during its slumber a good deal like a dog. Gorillas and chimpanzees sleep with their hands over their he:xls. Bears, which have no fear, sleep in any position. The same is true of wolves. "Animals of a cunning or cowardly nature, however, are always on the alert, even when asleep. A seal sleeps like a human being. Once in awhile a seal will sit up with its head ou its chest, asleep in the water. Its ears are kept under so that he mar hear the approach of en enemy, sound traveling with grea't distinctness under water."

The Foresters are experiencing a big boom in membership of the local court as the result of their recent successful picnic, and the new dispensation of the high board. Twenty new applications have been secured this week and it is thought this number will be increased to forty. The telephone line to Hammond and Chicago was out of commission yesterday until a lineman could come from Hammond and locate tne trouble, which he found was caused by a large tree falling across the wires during the storm Thursday night, breaking eight lead wires. The damage was repaired late last night. The break occurred about three miles west of here ,just the other side of Beaver dam. G. W. Infield, an electric railway promoter from Jasper county, was here yesterday endeavoring to arouse interest in a line to run from Laf ayette through Rensselaer, Lowell, Cedar Lake, Crown' Po!nt and Ham mond. He did not meet with a great deal of encouragement as he could give no definite information as to how the money to construct the line was to be obtained. Aug. Miller, one of the principal members of the Crown Toint fire company's crack team, which will compete at East Chicago met with an accident this week which will keep him out of the game and probably cause him the loss of a finger.

They raiiea to post a census of the population twenty days before the board of commissioners met. (2). They took flown the map and so-called census one day. before they could lawfully do so. (3). The description in their pe tition was so full of errors that it did not describe anything. (4). Their notice did not state the place where the census and map were on exhibition as the law re quires. ( o ) . 1 ne census was not sworn to Deiore it was posted, out was sworn to on the day it was filed with the county commissioners. (6) . The petition as signed by the petitioners, omitted two essential features, which were inserted by one of the petitioners the day the petition was filed. (7) . The town of Gary filed its petition first for annexation of part of the land Tolieston wished to incor porate, ine iana owners appeared and the commissioners necessarily made the order of annexation. After Tolieston had amended her petition to omit the land annexed to Gary the commissioners promptly made an order of incorporation of the balance of the land without objection from any one. Too Methodical. "As for nie," said Aunt Clarissa, "1 haven't any use for a woman that takes three or four handkerchiefs with her when she goes to see one of these heart interest plays. She's too businesslike and calculating to be the genuine thing." Chicago Tribune. Subscribe for the Lake County Times.
