The proceeds of the day wtfl be turned into the treasury for the new church which Is now under constructtlon and for which the foundation has already been completed.

GIRL TELLS SHOCKING TALE. CContlnned from page one.) affidavit was alleged to have been committed. On this accasion Miss Geib met Mr. Coons at the corner of Hohman and State street in the afternoon and at the solieiation of Mr. Coons went with him unaccompanied to his room in the Main hotel: Mr. Cocns said that he had a letter from his former daughter which he wanted to show her and she consented. The evidence then shows that Mr. Coons made advances to his daughter in the face of her protest and finully

accomplished the purpose for which he Is now on trial. Story Straightforward In Detail. The story told by the young wom an Is as straightforward as was ever heard on the witness stand. She went j Into the details of that shocking experience a Attorney Conroy asked her question after question until the whole terrible story had been most vividly told and the spectators in the court room shuddered at the thought of It. One of the sensations of the trial came when Attorney Fred Crumpacker said that he would not contend for his client that he was not the father of the girl, but that fact would be admitted. This narrowed the case down to the matter of proving or disproving the guilt of the defendant. Another Startling statement which was made by Miss Mary Gelb was that her first improper relations with Mr. Coons took place on Sept. 1. and that she was not 16 years old( the age of consent) until Nov. 16. This may involve another serious charge besides the one under which Mr. Coons is held. Wnuted Whole World to Know. When Attorney Fred Crumpacker objected to Mr. Conroy's going so much into detail, Mr. Conroy said he and Miss Geib had nothing to conceal, nothing that they did not want the whole world to know. Judge Meyer said when the matter ot consent was brought up that It was Immaterial whether it was with or without the witnesses consent and that the tender age of the girl was sufficient to absolve her from blame for her part In the crime. The prosecuting witness testified that up to June 25 she had had improper relations with Coons many times.. Each time was In the room of Mr. Coons In the Maine hotel with the exception of once In her own home she said. Attorney Crumpacker in cross ex amination brought out substantially the same facts and did not add materially to the testimony which had already been introduced. She said she had gone up to the room with other Hammond girls and named three others who had been named up to this time. May Chance Spite Work. Mr. Crumpacker asking about the re Iations between the girl's mother with Mr. Coons developed the fact that they were not very friendly and that there had been quarrels between them. This suggests the idea that possibly the de fense may attempt to show that the charges against Coons were brought for the purpose of getting even with him or as a matter of spite work. When Miss Geib was asked If her mother permitted her to go to the room of her father she said that her mother did not want her to see her father. It was at this juncture that the crowd in the court room made its first out-break and several people said audibly. "Well, I should not think she would want her daughter to see that man." Speaking of the first persons to whom she told her story, the witness said that she had told Dr. Howatt of her condition and that he had told Mrs. Geib. This lead to the arrest of Coons. Another Startling Disclosure. One of the most startling pieces of evidence which was introduced came ut when Miss Gelb admitted having given several unlabeled bottles of medi cine which came from the office of Dr. Lorenzo Jackson in the Central block. This medicine, it is charged, was pre scribed when Coons learned of the girl's condition, and it will probably be used as evidence in the case in the higher courts. It was also shown that Dr. Jackson gave Miss Geib an electrical treatment for what purposs the witness said she was unable to understand. Dr. L. Jackson was sworn as a witness and testified that Miss Gelb had come to him for treatment and that he had given her treatment for an anemic condition. He finally testified that Mr. Coons had appraised him of the fact that the girl was not normal. There was some discussion regarding the bottle of unlabeled medicine which he had given the girl and this Is expected to figure In the trial which will follow. Dr. Howat was called and his testimony was that to the best of his knowledge Miss Geib was in an abnormal condition. He claimed that he had made a complete examination of the witness on July 24 and 25. The most interesting witness In the afternoon session was Charles E. Coons, the father of the girl, who Is now bringing charges against him. All eyes were upon the man who stands charged with one of the most unnatural crimes in the whole criminal category. Mr. Coons was called to the stand by hls own counsel, Fred Crumpacker. and was asked many questions regarding his relations with his daughter. He testified that he was the father of the girl and that he had always been good to her. He was taken over the girl's story and substantiated most of the commonly known facts about her adoption and recent life. Mr. Coons, flatly denied guilty knowledge of his daughter. 4 :30 p. m. Mr. Coons was bound over to the .ke superior court In $1,000 bonds for trltil next month. He has not furnished bond yet. It Is reported that one of the former bondsmen will refuse to aro on the new bond. If taken just when you feel as though you are grolni? to be sick you will never know what serious Illness is.

The Rounder Says

An a disseminator of news, The Times has a larger scope and covers a larger field than most Ijake county people think. The other day a Hammond man had occasion to go to Valparaiso and while there he noticed a crowd of men around a bulletin upon which the baseball scores were being placed as fast as they came In. "Where do you get your baseball results," the Hammondite asked of a bystander. "Oh, they come right over the wire from Chicago," was his reply. The proprietor of the restaurant happened to be near and he was complimented for his enterprise. "But we don't get the results from Chicago," said the man in charge of the restaurant, "the results are telephoned over from Meeker & McCune's In Hammond." The Hammond man went home and decided to see how ttie system operated. A newsboy went flying down the street, yelling. "Sporting huxtra. huxtra. Lake Count Times." One of the first places he dodged into was Meeker & McCune's. The genial Andy Brown bought a copy and in a few minutes he was telephoning all about Ty Cobb and the Sox and the scores to Valparaiso. That Is how the people in the Porter county seat get their baseball news. Not through the Chicago Daily News, or the Journal or the American, but through the service of The Lake CorxTy Times, which is the best that Is furnished to the sporting public in Indiana. " Well, Mrs. Rosenberg, you should have seen me." said one out-getting-the-air woman to another last evening on her way to the park. "There was all my lovely dishes and my cut glass punch bowl, broken in a thousand pieces. She had dropped the whole tray. There she was. looking at me, with all my lovely china on the floor. Ach, Gott. it was awful : I could hardly get my breath, I was so mad and so excited. I just looked at her, and what do you think I said. Mrs. Rosenberg, what do you think I saidto her?" "Oh, oh, oh! I cant imagine, Mrs. Schmidt. What did you say? What did you say?" "Not one word. Not one single word. She thought I was going to scokl her; but I never opened my mouth. And 1 never do, Mrs. Rosenberg, no matter what she breaks or what she does. Why, she has broken more than $200 worth of china, cut glass and furniture and burned up some of my best underclothes when she irons. Every washday she lets some of my fine things blow oft the roof or forgets to bring them in, and they are stolen; but I never say one word to her. hat is the way to ' keep her.

and are changing all the time, but Minna stays with us. If I let her see I was mad and scolded her all the time, I would be sitting on a chair in an employment agency trying to get maids. No, ma'am, kee.p your mouth shut is my plan, and you can keep your servants." "Ain't it the truth?" said Mn. Schmidt admiringly. A Gary man who tells a good story when he does tell one, has the following: The Rev. Dr. Edward Everett Hale, the noted Boston divine, was called to Cornell university some two years ago to deliver a lecture. While there he called at a village livery stable and engaged a horse and trap for a drive up the shore of the beautiful Cayuga lake. It hapened that the 11,-eryman was sadly handicapped as to speech by reason of a stammer. "Now, my man. please direct me to the Trumansburg road?" said the clergyman. "Sure." responded the liveryman. "Just t-t-t-t-t-turn to yer r-r-r-r-right at the f-f-f-f-f-first corner and then

eep s-s-s-s-s-straight on t-t-t-t-t-tfll Oh hell! Drive on; you kin get there before I kin tell you the way," he blurted out. And the venerable divine took his advice.
