TIMES,
MINISTER IS UNFROCKED Cigarettes and Liquor Cause of Downfall of Gary Clergyman. The people of Gary vrere dumbfounded yesterday when they read in the Chicago papers that Rev.

Rev. Hamilton was the pastor of the Third Presbyterian church in Grand Rapids and came to Gary a few weeks ago, where he has taken up the work there. So far as is known by the Gary Presbyterians, Rev. Hamilton's record In Grand Rapids was clear, and In fact, he was recommended by some of his parishioners there. Had Many Friends. In Gary he had already made a great many friends and was one of the most popular divines in that city. Consequently when the word reached Gary yesterday that the Presbytery had unfrocked him, there was a sensation among the members of his congregation. That a Presbyterian minister should be addicted to the use of liquors and tobacco, to say nothing of the excessive use of these articles, was too scandalous for the Garyites, and it is understood that after the officials of the church confirm the story they will at once take some action to removo Hamilton. So far as the members of the congregation In Gary know, Hamilton has been an exemplary minister and they can hardly believe that he is guilty of the things with which he Is charged. street, has gone to Jacksonville, 111., to spend two weeks with friends.

Biographically he began as a train peddler, advanced to sell supplies to railways, and if now he.is as prosperous as he is fat he is once, if not twoce a millionaire. Personally he has such a fad for Jewels that each day he encrusts himself with diamonds, pearls, rubies, amethysts, or whatever other gem may appeal to his fitful fancy, and appears that evening at some theater with stones of his passing choice at throat and wrists, on his bosom, and (so 'ti3 said) at his garters and suspenders. The young woman accompanying him has a beauty to compare with Lillian Kussell, who sits beside her whenever free in town. Diamond Jim Brady is a second row first nighter and sleeps through performances that don't keep him awake. TTa was wide awake at the opening of the "follies of 1908," for he was to see himself on the stage as the ral.ih nf Broadway; and not caricatured, let me ten you, but personated with a deferential respect not shown to Roosevelt, Taft, Bryan, Hughes, or Cannon.
