PROFESSIONAL II

WANT NEW OFFICES There is a Dearth of Them in East Chicago Since "3ig Fire. (Special to Lake County Times.) East Chicago, Ind., July S. Since the Todd opera house block burned last spring there has been such a demand for ofhee rooms in East Chicago that many of the professional men of the city have been seriously inconvenienced by having to occupy small and inadequate quarters. A prominent business man made the statement that there was not a single place in East Chicago where o trices of any uescription could be secured, let alone utile. -s that are as modern and up to date as should be found ia a city of tho size of East Chicago. One of the prominent dentists has a little room in the rear of a drug store in which he is not even provided with running water and he claims that his business -has fallen off L'5 per cent, because of the lack of proper quarters. The1 doctors and lawyers are also in tho same tlx and the o trice rooms that they are compelled to put up with are a disgrace to the professions, one of the professional men of the city said yesterday that the tirst man to erect the tirst modern ofhee building in East Chicago would get the cream, of the tenants and they would all be willing to take long time leases. East Chicago is growing but all of the growth is in the residence districts and the business portion of the city is not keeping pace with the rest of it. There have been several announcements to the effect that new business blocks were to be erected, but nothing seems to materialize and the people are becoming skeptical. In tho meantime the professional men of the city are getting along as best they can and are looking almost hopelessly into the future. Many of them are at a loss to know why some enterprising man does not put up a good office and store building as it would attract the best of tenants and Avould be a good paying investment. CHILDREN'S RECEPTION. One of the new features of the Gentry shows this year is the children's reception given at the conclusion of the performance. All tho children are invited to enjoy a ride on the ponies and elephants, and as all of them are in charge of careful attendants and perfectly gentle, the little folks get no end of enjoyment out of this portion of the show. The Gentry .shows are better than ever this year if reports aro to bo believed. The tents are thoroughly water-proof, the seats are of the most comfortable design and the entire outfit? is of the best material and everything is done that is possible for the comfort of the patrons. It is doubtful if a more pleasing and instructive exhibition could be devised than the one presented by Gentry Bros, and their talented animals. The show will exhibit here July 15. St. George and the Dragon. Other nations besides England have fought under the banner of St George, and other knightly orders as well as that of the Garter have been instituted in his honor. Ho was the guardian saint of Sicily, Aragon, Valencia, Genoa, Mai to and Barcelona; a Venetian order of St George was created in 1200, a Spanish in 1317, an Austrian in 1170, a Genoese in 1472 and a lloman in 1402 More modern orders bearing his name are those of Bavaria (1720). Russia (1767) and Hanover (1839). The device of St. George slaying the dragon forms part of the arms of the czar and ap pears on several Russian coins. The conjecture that this was owing to the presentation of the Garter by Elizabeth to Ivan Vassilievitch has no foundation in fact for Chanceler, the first outspoken Englishman to visit Russia, speaks of a dispatch sent in 1554 from Ivan Vassilievitch to Queen Mary, the seal of which "was much like the broad seal of England, having on the one side the'image of a man on horseback in complete harness fighting with a dragon." London Chronicle. Queer Positions of Hearts. There ia one curious fact which not everybody notices about the comnion, finger-Ions, green caterpillars of our larger moths. Their hearts, instead of being in front, are at the back of the body and extend along the entiro length of tho animal. One can see the heart distinctly through the thin skin and can watch its slow beat, which starts at the tail and moves forward to the head. Hearts of this sort reaching from head to tail are not at all uncommon in the simpler creatures. The earthworm has one, and so have most worms, caterpillars and other crawling things. Hearts in the middle of the ! back also are quite as frequent as those in what seems to us to be the ; the crab, which have short hearts like i those of the beasts and birds, nevertheless have them placed Just under the shell in what in ourselves, would be the small of the back.

c (t oullaued from page one.) exhibited a large bank roil although he had no visible means of employment. The fact that his money consisted of many one dollar bills led those who saw him to believe that he might have been responsible for the theft of the $450 stolen from the receiver of the General Electric company which amount consisted of that denomination. The police had no difficulty in locating the man described, who when he saw that he. was about to be apprehended tired at the approaching sleuths and attempted to make a get-away. Block after block they chased the fugi tive and were assisted by Officers Bart- I ed and MeShane who soon joined the chase. The run severely tested-, the speed and the hurdling ability of those in pursuit but they soon proved to lie hi& master in that game. After an exchange of live or six shots in which no damage was done, the man was cornered in the baseiio lit of a house and oen men reiuseo to give up ino 1111. lie blocked tho basement door and ran into another room where he detied the officers to enter. They soon succeeded in breaking down the barrier, however, and were about to rush upon him when they noticed him about to climb out of a basement window and trapped him then and there. He was taken to the station where he refused to talk when questioned as to Ids identity. The man is a surly looking tough and gives every appearance of being the criminal he is accredited with being, lie is said to be responsible for hundreds of robberies and holdup jobs throughout the city and has b( en a man eagerly sought for for many months. When informed of the capture Chief Shippy complimented the men for their good work in capturing the criminal as it is thought that it will tend to check the depredation of the gang of which ho has been the leader. The latest job performed by Waselik and his gang was the robbery of the offices of the General Electric company and he is known to have had a hand in the looting of the safe of tho car barns from which he secured the one dollar bills. Captain Porman will place a special guard over the captive to prevent a de livery by his gang. They are among the most desperate in the business and great precaution will be used in watch ing any such action, which might be attempted. Slang of Otfter Days. Slang has always been a fruitful source for the expansion of language, and instances may be multiplied of words now respectable which were once tabooed as vulgarisms. But, on the other hand, there have been many slang phrases in use for centuries which have never become acceptable to the purists. As long ago as 1750 tho celebrated letter writer Horace Walpole used to speak of "sitting guzzling" and getting "drunk as an owl." Then again in the diary of one of the most prominent woman writers of the eighteenth century, Frances Burney. are found good slang phrases of the American college girl of today, as, for instance, "I sneaked out" "Did you ever know such a toad?" and "I had a vile cold." St Louis Republic. Hyperbole. A Rochester clfc.man was accustomed to use scientific terms, which the people did not understand. A deputation waited on him with the request that in the future whenever he used such terms he would explain them. On the following Sunday he used the term hyperbole and added: "As agreed on, I beg to explain this word. Were I to say that at this moment the whole of my congregation are sound asleep it would be hyperbole, but if I say that one-half are asleep that is no hyper bole, but the truth." The next day the deputation again called to say that the minister need not explain technical terms. The people would learn their meaning from a dictionary. Rochester Ilerald. At His Word. Many postoffice names are queer enough to make one desire an explanation of them. Sometimes the explanation is queerer than the name itself. A minister in Cass county wrote to Washington in behalf of the residents of a .growing hamlet asking that a postofflce be added to its institutions. The request was favorably received, and he was asked to suggest a name that would be acceptable to his neighbors, lie replied that they were not hard to please so long as the name waa ; peculiar. The postoffice department took him at his word, and "Peculiar" is the name of the office to this day. Kansas City Star. The Case of Emergency. While on the march in India the pioneer corporal of a famous Irish regiment went to the quartermaster for a loan of a camel to carry a spare tent, but the quartermaster refused, saying: "I have only the cart, and this spare camel I am keeping for a case of emergency." The corporal said, "Can't you put the case of emergency on the cart, sir, and j me haye tho camel?" Red Letter, i Wasteful Ignorance. The ordinary waste of food in an English middle class family would be sufficient wholly to maintain a French family of similar station, and the waste of food is at least largely due to the ignorance of cookery which prevails among the classes from which English domestic servants are derived. London Lancet Would Like It Very Much. "By the way," asked the waiter, "how would you like to have your steak?"

"Very much. Indeed," replied the j man was dead, with a hole in his skull mild man, who had been patiently j which exposed the brain. Popular Mewaiting for twenty minutes. I chanics.

111 I GLEANS UP 111 fID DECAMPS Railroad Clerk Accused of Taking Money From Wife and Landlady is Missing Charles Cornett, who has been employed as clerk at the Pennsylvania yard office in Whiting, disappeared yesterday and simultaneously $150 belonging to Mrs. Jack O'Keefe, and his wife's gold watch and chain with $100 also disappeared aud circumstances point to Cornett as the thief with such directness that those who mourn the luss of their money have taken out warrants for the arrest of Cornett on i charge of grand larceny. Yesterday morning Cornett, who lias been stopping at the O'Keefe house where his wife is employed as cook. ame in, and telling Mrs. O'Keefe he had been transferred to the Pennsylvania office at Fast Chicago, went to his wife's room saying he wanted to get his watch. He came down within a few minutes saying he would be back in the evening, but when evening came Cornett had failed to put in his appearance, and going to her room his wife found that her watch and $100 were missing. Hastening to Mrs. O'Keefe she told her about the loss of her money and Mrs. Q'Keefe going to her room, which adjoins the Cornett room, found she was minus her purse which contained $150. Look for Him in Chicago. Tlie police were notified and warrants were taken out for the arrest of Cornett. When the Pennsylvania office was called up at Fast Chicago, Mrs. O'Keefe was informed that no person by the name of Cornett was working there. Calling up the office at Whiting they found that the missing man had been discharged Saturday evening. Fpon investigation Chief of Police Lawler learned that instead of going to Fast Chicago, Cornett had taken a Lake Shore train for Chicago Sunday morning. Determined to find Cornett, if such a tiling was possible. Lawler accom panied by O'Keefe, left for Chicago, but returned this morning having been unable to find any trace of him. Both Mrs. O'Keefe and Mr. Cornett said today that they have little hopes of ever seeing Cornett again. Cornett is well known in Whiting and has many friends who refuse to believe that he absconded with his wit s ana .Mrs. o Jveefe s money, as they have always thought him a straight forward, honest man. Susy's Opinion of Her Father. Before Susy began the biography she let fall a remark now and theu concerning my character which showed that shu had it under observation. In the record which we kept of the children's sayings there is an instance of this. She was twelve years old at the time. We had established a rule that each member of the family must bring a fact to breakfast a fact drawn from a book or from any other source; any fact would answer. Susy's first contribution was in substance as follows: Two great exiles and former opponents in war met, in Ephesus, Scipio and Ilannibal. Sclplo asked Hannibal to name the greatest general the world had produced. "Alexander," and he explained why, "And the next greatest?" "lyrrhus," and he explained why. "But where do you place yourself, then?" "If I had conquered you, I would place myself before the others." Susy's grave comment was: ""That attracted me. It was just like papa, he Is so frank about his books." So frank in admiring them, Bhe meant. From "Mark Twain's Autobiography" in North American Review. Impossible. A year or so ago an American stu dent in Berlin was attending a lecture in a room drowsily close through lack of ventilation. To keep awake he began whispering to a German at his side th story of Mark Twain about tho man who lived all his life in a chronic fear of fresh air. The relatives of this man, as is well known, decided after his death to have his remains cremat ed, aud the climax of the story occurs when the undertaker, opening the door of the oven to see whether incineration was complete, was appalled to hear the corpse speak out and request him to close the door aud shut off the draft. The American, sprung the joke as ef fectively as he could, but never a smile was his reward. His German friend remained for several moments In a per plexed study; then he leaned over to the American and said: "But how could that be? The man was dead!" Liar per's Weekly. Power of Falling Water. It is perfectly well known to every one that water constantly dropping upon a stone will wexr it away, and there is a trite old proverb regarding this fact. The force of a single drop of water falling from a height is not great, but the results of this tiny blow when it is many times repeated are ; astounding. There is a story of one J poor -wretch who was "bound with his back to a stone wall and had a stream of water "of the bigness of a man's finger" directed on to his bare head, the water falling from a height of about eighteen feet The receptacle from which this apparently harmless stream trickled was a barrel holding only twenty gallons, but before the water had moxe than half run out the

AFFECTION OF THE NERVES. Stammering Not Always Due to Defects in Vocal Organs. "Stammering is often more the result of habit than from any defect of the vocal organs," says Prof. D. L. Pavyer. "It is generally, if not always, caused by a epasia of tho larnyx, resulting from nervous contraction of the organs, thus refusing to prmit a proper flow of the air current producing tone. People rarely or never stammer when singing, for then the attention is divided between the words and music, the nervousness is momentarily forgotten and the passage of the air current through the larnyx is continuous and unobstructed. Stammering very often is the result of imitation, sometimes intentional, sometimes unconscious, and the affliction is much more general than might be supposed. In one comparatively small section of the city there are 35 stammerers, and every one of them is able to demonstrate to his own satisfaction not only that he does not stammer very badly, but that eome other person he knows stammers a great deal worse than himself. Every stammerer is Intensely sensitive about his infirmity, rarely forgives and never does forget any allusion to it which in his mind savors of ridicule. St. Louis Globe-Democrat First American Gas Engine. The first American gas engine patent, Issued May 25, 1S44, wa3 granted to Stuart Perry, Newport, N.

HAD TO GO ON IN AUTO. Machine Wouldn't Stop and Owner Tried to Wear It Out. John P. Julius, a prominent piano dealer, of York, Pa., and an enthusiastic automobillst, engaged with his electric auto in an endurance run, which he will not soon forget. While driving along through the city streets something went wrong with the mechanism of his car and he found that he was unable to stop it. Though moving at a lively clip-the car's pace was within the speed limit, and Mr. Juliu3, with great presence of mind, steered it on, meanwhile giving his spare attention to a search for the trouble. This search he finally abandoned, and then began the endurance run, which continued up hill and down through the streets and over country roads for several hours. The machine continued to bowl merrily on, and Mr. Julius was in despair, when he passed a garage and managed to attract the attention of a mechanic, who Jumped aboard and by removing a few plus brought up the runaway.
