ASKS TOR BOAED MONEY; LANDLADY IS BEATEN UP. C'barlcB Sharp Owel $nO.OO to Mm. Frank Swacla anil nmcnled Helnjf Akked for It Police la Long Chue. Charles Sharp, a former carpenter, lately bartender and loafer at Frank Swada'a boarding house on Jefferson street and Fifteenth avenue, resented the Imputation that he should take steps towards paying his board bill, which amounted to about $0, and assaulted Mrs. Swada, night before last. Before her husband arrived on the scene Sharp made his escape by running all of the way to Toleston. Officer Klopf, who was after him, arrived In Toleston just in time to see Sharp climb onto the moving train for Hammond. A telephone reo.iK-.st ' to Hammond asking that Sharp be arrest.-d there as he got off the train was refused by the Hammond officers, they declaring that they would not dare to arrest the man without a warrant. The local officers are on a still hunt and expect to land their quarry within a Bhort while. Sharp is a dissolute character who has been In trouble with tho police before. KOSKINS MAY APPOINT DEPUTY CORONER AT GARY. The InoreanlnRly I.nrjje !uinher of Deuthn In New Sleel Town Mitke TIiIk Action XeoeKNary Time Ti;ken up Jlewuere. - Coroner Ilcskins has ben kept so busy going to and from Gary win-re thi-re la an unusual number of deaths that he Is considering the advisability of appointing a deputy to look after the duties of this office in that city. His work over the rest of the coun- ; ty takes up most of his time now and this seems to be the b-st solution of the problem. From this time on, the dangerous nature of the construction work at Gary will probably result in an increasingly large number of deaths and It will require the attention of one man to look after this territc?; alone. The doctor Is now being rushed beyond endurance with his work and finds that he must get relief in some euch manner. The appointing of a aeputy at Gary seems to be the only way out of the quandary. POLICE ARE STRENUOUS; MUST INCREASE FORCE. Territory to be Covered t Increasing and the Men Are Overworked Jinny Arrenta Made YeHterilay. The police department is strenuous these days and it is expected that the force will- be increased in number within a short time. The territory to be covered is constantly growing and the population is ever on the increase making the work much heavier for the department. Today's work, which is but an ordinary day, numbered some eight or ten arrests on charges ranging from the ordinary turbulent drunk, assault and batery and up to the running of blind pigs. Several men, arrested on charges preferred by Officer Newman for selling liquor without licenses will probably be tried at some Dther place before a city judge, the newlaw making it impossible for a justice of the peace to handle the case on account of the high fine that the law places on the violator. FAINTS AT SIGHT OF BLOOD. UUIy AVllson "Watched Doctor Hrcs AYotinda and I Slinmelf Hurt. Billy "Wilson, a representative of the Gary Lumber company, Is wearing a bandage about his head, covering a bad cut he received over his right eye a few days ago. He was in the police station watching the doctors dress a foreigner who had been in a beer bottle fight with several other foreigners down at the place owned by Veronkka Marcinczek. One of the blows smashed the bottles and the broken glass cut the man over the left eye severing one of the arteries. He bled so profusely and presented such a growsome sight when brought into the station for dressing that "Wilson was overcome and fainted. He reeled against a window sill receiving quite a bad cut. Gary Has Forty-Four Saloons. The beginning of the month has brought the usual increase in the issuance of saloon licenses some ten being granted by the municipal officers within the last few days.

Eriefs. Michael "Walsh i3 having a second story addition built on his building on Adams street. Dr. and Mrs. Walsh were in Hammond this morning to meet a young lady friend, coming on from the east for a visit. Frank Reiland has built a portable addition on the portable restaurant he is running, just south of the Lake Shore tracks on Broadway. Mayor Harrow of LaPorte is in town this afternoon looking after franchise Interests. It Is understood that the mayor expects to present a substituted franchise at the meeting tomorrow which will in a measure meet the terms of the one presented by the company. The very damp weather during the last few days has slackened building activities but inside work goes on unabated. About half of the machinery that goes to make up the equipment for the machine Shop on the plant site has been installed. All of the equipment for supplying the immense building with warm or cool air for the operatives as the need may be, has arrived and will be installed within a short time. The Ladies' Aid society has a plan on foot by which they will attempt to secure permission to use the buildings which are nearly completed on Broadway for the purpose of holding Aid meetings. The ladies propose to serve luncheons and as these buildings are located on this much traveled thoroughfare, the plan would probably be a money earner. In Gary where it is hard to get the kind of food that mother used to cook, the lunches will probably prove popular. CROWN POINT NEWS The bad weather is hindering the cement contractors greatly. Rain has fallen in Crown Point five days out of the first seven in June. Joe Engel of Chicago is visiting his aunt, Mrs. Barbara Hoffman of West Joliet street. The Modern Woodmen expect a big turn out at their memorial services tomorrow. Miss Mary Krohn left yesterday for Waukegan, 111., where she expects to spend the summer.

The condition of William Brown, sr., who was stricken with paralysis last Sunday, remains about the same. He is still unconscious and unable to move. Reports from Cedar Lake say that many line pickerel are being caught. A number of pickerel minnows were put into the lake a year ago and these are now furnishing fine sport. The board of review lias now got down to good hard work and President W. E. Black and Auditor Johnson are sending out several thousand notices inviting the property owners to come before the board and show cause why t heir assessments should not be changed. INDIANA HARBOR Miss Felicia Ordner visited in Ham mond yesterday afternoon. Misses Anna and Edith Roak of Elm street are shopping in Chicago today.

NO ALCOHOL fiO NARCOTICS

m poisons Zoa-Pnora Does Not Now and Never Did Contain Poisonous Drugs, Nor Any That Will Cause the Drug Habit. MADE FOR WOMEN. No Higher or Better Proof of the Merit ol a Medicine Can He Uixn Thau Found Here. When Dr. Pengelly first compounded oa-l'hora, he was very careful in his selection of the ingredients to be used. Having in mind at all times the best good of his patients, he determined to use no drug that would be in any way injurious to woman s delicate organ ism. His years of experience in treat ing all forms of womanly weakness and disease, enabled him to determine just the remedies needed. Can you wonder, therefore, that Zoa-Phora is so suc cessful? No narcotics, nor any drug that will cause what is commonly known as the "drug habit" are used in compound ing oa-Phora. I-ormerly a small amount of alcohol was used in its preparations, but now even that has been eliminated leaving the valuable medicinal Ingredients in the prepara tion just as they have always been. The medicines used in making Zoal hora are recognize.! by the medical profession everywhere as the best known remedies for the diseases and ailments of women. The United States Dispensatory and other medical books of equal prominence, say, in regard to them as follows: "regulates the men strual function," "employed by physi cians in the treatment of uterine diseases," "lias met wtih favor in the treatment of periodical sick-headache.' "recommended in debilitated conditions, attended with loss of appetite," "has extraordinary power to control capillary circulation and remove congestion," "recommended for nervous, hysterical women, with irregular spasmodic pains during childbirth; pains in the uterus." "This is one of the most useful remedies we have for the prevention of premature labor in childbirth, or irregular after-pains," "especially adapted for females who are afflicted with diseases of the ovaries or uterus," etc., etc. Many other statements of recommendation for the these remedies appear in the most reliable physicians' books. It is not this proof sufficient to convince you that Zoa-Phora is the most dependable and absolutely genuine medicine for woman's use that can be round: A hen you add to the statements of these eminent medical author ities, the experience of Dr. Pengelly in his more than twenty years' use of Zoa-Phora in private practice, and again add the testimony of the multi tudes of women in every state in the Union who voluntarily write -words of praise for this wonderful "woman's friend," the proof positive of the superior merit of Zoa-Phora is indis putable. o Detter, stronger or more satisfactory evidence could possibly be produced, and none from any higher authority regarding a medicine ex ists anywhere. You need not send away for ZoaPhora. Your druggist will supply you with the medicine already prepared. and compounded in just the right pro portions, put up in sealed, sterilized, one dollar bottles. Each package contains full and complete instructions and directions for using the medicine. also a copy of "Dr. Pengellv's Advice to women, a oooKier. containing a lot of interesting and instructive in formation for women. prophecy, Pat Keenan represented the class of '03 and Rave an amusine ac count of Will Henry and his uncle's pig yard." Isadore Jacobsen. fbrmerly a high school boy, gave a very short but interesting talk and promised to be present next year with his violin after which the meeting adjourned to meet next year and a social hour was spent in dancing. LOWELL NEWS Xeil Brown, the sage of Shelby, was a ijoweu visitor r riday. Lowell will cross bats with the Passtimes at Oakland Park Sundav. Ex-Sheriff G. W. Lawrence of Ham mond, was in Lowell Friday. At a special meeting of the council Thursday night, they granted the Lowell Telephone company a twenty year franchise for which the comnany paid $300. At a meeting of the business men of Lowell Thursday night, it was unanf mously decided that until Sept. 1, they would close their places of business at S o'clock on all nights excepting Wednesday and Saturday. This is a move that will be greatly appreciated by the proprietors and clerks as it will give them shorter hois, and while it may be a little unhandy at first for those who wait until the last hour of 10 or 11 o'clock at night before they do their trading, they will soon become accustomed to the early closing plan. and will be glad to see the overworked clerks have a little recreation the same as other laborers. HESSVILLE NEWS Mrs. day. Evans is a Hammond visitor to Mr. and Mrs. aro Hammond Grapp and son, Gussie, visitors today. Fred Dedelow and Tillie Burkhardt are spending the day in Chicago. Mrs. Johnson and d:rcghter, Irene, j spent yesterday in Hammond. Mrs. George Hess and family of Hammond visited Mrs. Charles Stewart yesterday. Mrs. Havengar will entertain a few friends tonight In honcr of Mr. Havengar's birthday.
