Mr. Chapman, the local Lake Shore agent, was uable to be at work yesterday morning on account of a slight illness. Robert J. Briggs, the deputy prosecuting attorney, is erecting a tempor ary law office south of and adjoining the Hotel Fitz. ; Messrs. Townsley, Gallagher and sev eral other prominent Tolleston citizens and families called on President Knotts yesterday afternoon. Mr. Butcher, who was recently re moved to the hospital, is convalescent but will probably remain there for several weeks. Mrs. Butcher is with him during his stay. Wilderrnuth & Hodges are putting up a temporary office building near the postoffice. They are pioneer lawyers and have a first mortgage on ground floor propositions.

Green Sons company of St. Paul are on the ground getting ready to carry out the -contract recently awarded them for the construction of a part of the large sewer system, south of the river.

Mr. Gleason, brother-in-law of A. F Knotts, is visiting the ground of his relative's conquests for a few days. Mr. Gleason is general manager of the American Book company throughout the Dakotas. The vork of making the temporary roadway south on Broadway has been pushed as far as the Pennsylvania tracks and will be completed In a few days. This will give South Gary people ready access to the territory north of the Wabash. The fact that some one had thoughtfully placed a heavy plank on top of the new chimney on the Hotel Fitz last Friday evening brought in a false Are alarm. The plank had been placed there to keep the political arguments from reaching the president of the town board. Frank Reiland, the milkman, is preparing the ground for his winter quarters imediatcly south of the building occupied by Mr. Warne, the grocer. Frank has also developed some political aspirations on the quiet. He has the race all to himself though, so he is not worrying much about defeat. Every effort is being made to thoroughly advertise the speeches that are to be held here the 26th. Several of our more ardent politicians went over to Hammond to hear Indiana's favorite senator, Albert J. Beveridge, last evening. Reports are that the house- was crowded and the speech a significant outline of new politics that will win favor everywhere. New r.ot to the Republican party, but new because not handled before. Messrs. Illbbard and Abbott and several other officials of the Chicago Tele phone company, made an extensive visit here on Saturday, under the guidance of Mr. Krinbill of Hammond. Their visit is a good indication as to the relative importance of our city as a telephone proposition. Their request for a fifty year franchise at Tolleston Is undoubtedly a fairly good indication of what -they will ask of Gary. Tolleston decided that she would await the result of our negotiations before making any promises. The Clark company of Chicago is busy here getting ready for the erection of the throe buildings for which It has been awarded the contracts by the Land company. They are the hotel building on the northwest corner of Broadway and Sixth; the bank building on the southwest corner of Broadway and Fifth, and the school building. The hotel building will be a four-story steel structure, modern in every respect and to contain over a luindred rooms. All- of the buildings are to be completed by early spring. Several of the large glass fronts that are to go into the new saloon building south of jho Wabash, arrived yesterday. The work on this building as well as the several other-; that are under construction, is being pushed to an early completion. This will no doubt put a qul-tus on several of To'leston's recent acquisitions in that line, as these are about a mile nearer. The two saloons that are in our northwest corner received notice yesterday that they were not complying with the law, and promised to mend their ways at once. They are located at Edgemore. The town trustees put in a lengthy esslon Saturday afternoon. The be-

gining of a code of health ordinances

was made, at least three. of the. num bers passed being health.-' measures,. The grade of 146th street was estab lished in accordance with the engineer's recommendation. The action of the board of education regarding funds was approved. Mr. Eomberger, the town attorney did not attend the session, sending in his stead Mr. Ridgely, of Knotts & Bomberger's office. Mr. Ridgley was formerly a law partner of W. F. Hodges of this place and expects to open up an office here as soon as suitable quarters can be secured. Anton Frederiksen of Frederiksen & Baker, the bakers and confectioners, died Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock at the Wesley hospital in Chicago. The typhoid fever which set In was the second case in Gary. Mr. Frederiksen was of Danish descent, having emigrated to this country with his wife several years after their marriage. They moved here from Hegewisch, 111., where Mr. Frederiksen had been interested in a bakery. The funeral takes place at 2 o'clock today from the hospital. Mrs. Frederiksen intends to close up the establishment, which is small, as quickly as possible and to take up some lino ' of work. The community here misses him greatly. He was one of the pioneers and was well liked by all who knew him. Any reports to the' contrary notwithstanding, we are not to have either a new chief of police nor a few force. The men about whom several papers have printed several columns of free advertising, when they go on duty, will do so as watchmen for the Steel com pany's property on the north side. We have no doubt but that some of the new men, and perhaps all of them, are efficient watchmen. They will have the opportunity of their lives to prove it. in taking care of the large territory and the millions of dollars worth of property which the Steel company is bringing in. The town of Gary will make no changes In its police force. save to make such additions as condi tions will permit. However, in mak ing these additions we have no doubt if others will take notice, they will find that men who openly flaunt a dis regard for the law as a qualification, will find no place on the official force The Steel company will here, as it must everywhere else, to a large extent, po lice its holdings. This it is forced to do from the very nature of things, few municipalities being willing to main tain a sufficient number of men at the public cost to properly police the property. These men must be organized and officered the same as any other body of men that is to do efficient work and Mr. Bidaman is, according to reports, to be the head of the com pany's policeEast Side News. Harold Griffin, . who has been In the south, has "returned to the East Side Arthur Engquist, who formerly resid ed on the East Side, was visiting friends here last Sunday.

Richard Bihl and Miss Anna Swanson of the East Side were united in marriage Saturday evening. They will make their home on the East Side. A pleasant surprise party was held in honor of Miss Elma Simth of the East Side at the home of Miss Zoa Linton, at 9S39 Ewing avenue, Friday evening. A luncheon was served and the large number of guests present spent an enjoyable evening. The South Chicago baseball club and the Normals played another tie game Sunday at tlie Normal's park. The score was 3 to 3 at the end of the ninth inning when the game was called on account of darkness. South Chicago missed many chances to win the game, and the fans are sure that the next game will settle the series in favor of South Chicago. Look out for chicken thieves! When Joe Schilaca, who resides at 9 6th street and Ewing avenue went out to his chicken coop last Thursday morning all that was left of his flock of chickens was thirty-three heads, the chickens having disapeared during the night. Out of his thirty-four chickens he had on Wednesday night, all that, he had left on Thursday morning was one foxy old rooster who had hid under the sidewalk. To make sure that ' the thieves would not call again and get him Mr. Schilaca made a meal of this remaining fowl himself. This is r.ot the only chicken coop that has been raided on the East Side lately, and people that own chickens are lying in the coops with weapons of all descriptions, laying for the fowl men, and woe unto them, if they are, caught! Our constant aim is to keep our stock up to date. We have the finest funeral stock in northern Indiana. Mr. and Mrs. Stewart. Funeral Directors, Hohman and Indiana avenue: phone 191L 10-12-6t

She was al ways cheerful, but little did her loved ones know how she suffered continu ally. In the solitude of her home sh would weep and pray for some relief from the pains that racked her. Even the effort to climb the stairs caused hei intense suffering, gasping for breath palpitation of the. heart and dizziness How she ever struggled through hei household duties she never knew. . Sh never realized her condition until sh4 was unable to rise from her bed. Then" came the fear of a large doc tor and medicine bill, and she resorted to simple home remedies to avoid them, until a neighbor who had been afflicted in much the same manner suggested the old Quaker Remedy, Herb Extract Today Mrs. Nancy Kurfrnan is an en tirely well and strong woman, and ta use her own words, the said: "While I had known for years ot Quaker Herb Extract as a specific for stomach, liver and kidney troubles, I do not believe I would have thought ot sending to the drug store for It If my neighbor had not reminded me.
