Rosa Maeyer, a 15-year-old girl, who formerly resided at S43 Groves street, was complained of. by her mother this morning in the local police station. She claimed in broken-hearted tones that her daughter was a thief and a bad little girl. For four weeks the girl has not been to her home and her parents feel keenly the disgrace. When the little girl left home she took with her

Subscribers to Fund for Sanctuary,

See Their Money Put in Liquor Business to Multiply. Gary, Oct. 21. Special Garbed as a

a meek and lowly dem -anor, a negro who looked as if lie had just swallowed a bible blew into this city some time ago and at once started missionary work. He was going to build a church for the poor suffering black men of the new town and take them away from the dens of iniquity in the Patch. He was very suco-ssful, so much so in fact that he began to see what a wonderful place to make money in. was Gary. The church was not needed just at the present time and so he hiked about looking for a suitable occupation to take up his time. After a thorough investigation he saw .that the saloon business was netting the quickest returns. Throwing off the swallow tailed coat for a white frock, discarding the "Rev." In front of his name and affixing the title of "Bud," Mr. Moore, for that was his name, purchased two lots of land on the Patch and blossomed out into the liquor business. Of course, there was not enough money to build a large suitable church edifice and the work of. the Lord must be kept, so the money was put into the saloon business to multiply until the necessary amount is on hand. The subscribers Instead of being angry, treat the matter as a huge joke.

WANT ALBO ATTEND

Lecture of Dr. J. N. McCor-

mack Will ', be Held Tomorrow Night at Towles

In order to make. the affair a success

the Lake County Medical association

which is in charge of the arrangements for the lecture of Dr. J. N. McCormack, the well known authority, and which

Is to be given at Towle Opera house

tomorrow night, is working hard. It is the ambition of the members to make

this a public reception to the lecturer

and no admission will be charged, while

the public is Invited.

Dr. McCormack Is the secretary of the

state board of health of Kentucky and

an authority on the subject of

typhoid fever, a subject that. is always

more or less live in the Calumet region.

Dr. McCormack is a pleasing speaker

being one of the few to take up a scientific subject which to the ordi

nary person is dry and make it inter

esting personal .experiences and anecdotes that are decidedly humorous.

That Dr. McCormack and his ability

Is highly appreciated can be taken from the fact that he is the president of the organization committee of the Am

erican Medical association and It being

not often the good fortune of the Hammond people to hear a man of his

standing the Lake County Medical association deemed it a wise step to secure his services for one evening.

TRY TO HOLD STRIKE

Several girls who were transferred from the Riverside school to the Lafayette school attempted to inaugurate a strike last Saturday by trying to take their school books from the room in the basement but were frustrated in their attempt by the janitor who refused them admission. What instigated the move the girls is nt known unless they had the sanction of their parents. Today all returned to their places in the room and the agitation that was so strong against occupying the basement room is seemingly dying: out.

"THE MAN OF THE HOUR." Every man, woman and child In the

United States in recent months has

heard the expression: "He's a game

bird; but. he flies funny;" but there is doubt that more than 25 per cent of those who have heard or have used the expression know its source. It Is one of the big laughing speeches in

The Man of the Hour," which will be

acted here by William A. Brady and Joseph R. Grismer's special company,

made up of wellknown actors, on next Sunday night in the Towle Opera house, where it will be seen for the first time in this citv.

"Where does the laugh come In?"

many will ask who have not seen the

play. Where does the laugh come in with any of the best jokes of the ages unless the whole story be told? Nobody

will laugh at the sentence: "To get to the other side," in the bare form In which it is here given; but preceded by the interrogation, "Why does a chicken cross the road?" that line has created more laughter than any comtination of words in the English language. Moral: If you want to get the full measure of laughter from "He's a game bird; but he flies funny," go to the Towle Opera house next Sunday night and hear Alderman Jimmy Phelan speak it In reply to Mayor Bennett, just before that nervy young man wins back the love of the woman for whose respect and admiration he has done and dared so much.

BROOK'S FAMILY THEATRE. The attractions at Brook's these pleasant evenings are above the average, and are being well patronized by th theater loving public. The Johnson dogs, trained to do everything but speak; a world renowned black face comedian; three musical wonders, and the Raynos are on the board.

GOES INSANE OVER WOR

Gary, Oct. 21. Special While working on the mill site, James Kelly, a resident of Chicago, went suddenly insane. He cried out that it was wrong to work on Sunday and that the Lord sent him to stop the construction of buildings on His day. The workmen stopped in wonderment at tho words of the man, and later when he grew more violent overpowered him and took him to the office of a physician. A brother of the man, who is saifl to be a lawyer of Joliet, Hi., was notified and Kelly will be taken to a sanitarium.

LAMBERT AT HAMMOND?

Valparaiso, Ind., Oct. 21. Special Deputy Sheriff Woods thinks he has located Luke Lambert, who is wanted here on a charge of wife desertion. From information he lias received he found that Lambert is now located in South Chicago, and that he is a frequent visitor to Hammond. The deputy sheriff has asked the aid of the Ham-

mend police in apprehending Lambert.

Belling a Rat. You hare probably read or heard that the be6t way to rid a house of rats is to catch one and fasten a bell about its neck. A boy in Delaware tried the experiment two montha ago. He was badly bitten in making the bell fast, but he turned the rat loose and expected the tinkling of that bell would have great results. It did have. In the first place, the rat who wore it was constantly on the move all night, and the tinkling bell kept the family awake, and in the next the sounds brought scores of new rats to the house. Instead of being afraid of the bell, they were charmed with the music. Had the boy tied a harmonica to another rat's tail, the rodents would have had a dacce every night.
