HERE AND THERE IN THE CALUMET REGION

Day's Grist in South Chicago SERGEANT FIGURES IN A SENSATION. Sooth Clilraito Cop rosea nn the Only InklnMFd Man In City. Spriereant Patrick McCauley of the Fifteenth precinct who, since his narrow escape frun drowning a week ago, known around the police station as nr" vostcrflav figured In a rescue more penpation.il than his own .T;imps Maxwell, a vounit man who was swimming nar the Nicholson beach, suffered a stroke of cramps and went under. Rising to the surface egain lie called for help. The "commodore" sergeant seeing his predicament while standing on the pier made a long headlong dive and swam tc Maxwell's assistance, towing him in lay the hair. Sergeant McCauley was roundly cheered by the spectators and congratulated and one damsel more enthusiastic than her sisters about the hero offered to kiss his noble brow. Sereeant McCaulev may be brave and has demonstrated it time and again, but he Is very much averse to any demonstra tion on his own behalf. In addition to this he holds the unique position at the station that he is the only unkissed policeman In South Chicago, as far as Is known. It is unecessary to say that he remained unkissed.

"Try to get strength of heart to look yourself fairly in the face in mind as well as body. I do not doubt that the mind is a less pleasant thing to look at than the face, and for that very reason It needs more looking at; so always have two mirrors on yotir toilet table and see that with proper care you dress body and mind before them daily." Keep Cut of Debt. The man who is deeply in debt haa put a halter round his neck which his creditors can pull taut at any time. He is no longer his own mas ter. Other men know his necessities make him "approachable." His integrity is suspected, his honesty questioned. A New Rheumatism Cur. Here's another sure cure for rheumatism: "See these," a man said, drawing three round sticks of some black substance from a pocket "That's electric light carbon. Carried 'em six months now and never had a touch of rheumatism. Used to have it all the time before I carried the carbon. It beats a buckeye all holler." Used In Place of Tobacco. Among the least harmful of substitutes for tobacco will be found dried holly leaves, the bark of the willow tree and leaves of the stag's hor) sumach, which are all smoked by the American Indians.

FIRE FIENDS USE BUSY

South Chicago Blazes Destroy Much Valuable Property. Fire broke out at noon today in a dewlling at Ninety-sixth street and F.wing avenue near the Calumet river. The fire boat Conway, was sent to assist in quenching the flames which on account of the wind threaten to be dangerous. Fire from an unknown origin last Saturday night destroyed a number of sheds. Including a number of barns. The fire spread from one building to another until seven buildings had been touched by the flames. The loss is

"The ruling passion," says the philosopher of folly, "is strong, not only in death, but in other circumstances. I told a chorus lady last night that she had a peach of a bun on, and she inquired anxiously if it was on straight." Experience Brings Hope. Tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope. That is the order. You cannot put patienco and experience into a parenthesis, and, omitting them, bring hope out of tribulation. Alexander Maciaren. Speed of Electricity. Electricity, where unretarded by atmospheric influences, travels at the rate of 288,000 miles a second.

GARY IN GRASP . OF FIRE FIEND.

(Continued from page 1.) had discovered this fire and spread the alarm. The story of the first tire was rehearsed in the second. The whole idea was to confine the fire instead of putting it out. I-tucket brigades worked desperately with water brought .'rora the pumps and succeeded in saving the two stores on the corner, whicli later in the day succumbed to the flames. I'ATHOXS' A II It O XV ESCAPE. The patrons of the Gary hotel barely had time to escape from the roaring furnace before being trapped in the flames. Most, of them emerged with scarcely enough clothing to cover them, and one woman, Kitty Clark, in trying to save some of her personal effects, badly burned both of her hands. Daring attempts were made by many to secure a few articles of value. Soon the roaring, seething mass of flames pierced through the sides of the building, and no hope was left for the two buildings to the right of it. It was absolutely useless to attempt to get any of the stock of the grocery store, the bakery, or the household furniture out of any of the buildings, so rapidly did tlie flames spread. Hard, systematic fire fighting enabled the volunteers, who, by this time numbered over a hundred, to save tlie buildings in tlie rear, as well as the Gary department store to the north, from getting beyond control, although dangerous looking blazes were extinguished many times. Pumps in the vicinity were worked to their capacity, while every receptacle that could hold water was pressed into service. AI.A1IM SHOTS AGAIN. No one could conceive of another blaze starting in tlie vicinity after the first two flies had eaten themselves out, but the unexpected happened at 12:30 yesterday afternoon. Once more that dreaded fire alarm was sounded by the firing of pistol shots, and another fierce conflagration was on. Jursich was sitting at his table in the Garden hotel, congratulating himself on his narrow escape; Rosenthal had just made on estimate of what his loss would have been If his place had been destroyed, when some one rushed up to Jursich and screamed that the department store, but a few feet away from his own place, was doomed. A dozen people were eating in the dining room of the hotel and they all sprang up as one man to assist in putting out tlie fi a m e s . TUOISWOS see ni. ZE. Fight as they might the flames could not be controlled, and again tlie fire fighters abandoned thousands of dollars worth of property to the merciless llames and bent their efforts to saving adjoining property. Thousands of people gathered around the roaring furnace and ihe effort of the men was worthy of the highest praise. Wet blankets were used with success on tlie Zaminski buildings on the alley across from the burning structures, in the face of overpowering heat. Many men left the task in a fainting condition, utterly exhausted. John Bloom, who had been one of the hardest workers, fell to the street and was carried into a nearby saloon. The shack of the Chinese laundryman could not be saved but the contents were rescued and rarried away in a draw. A cigar bo full of mony, however, is missing ami it cannot be ascertained iiie amount it contained. WEPT I.IKE A CIHI.n. In the meantime Jursich, having given up the fight, was crying like a child. He had lost everything he had in the world. Rosenthal seemed temporarily demented. lie trembled like a leaf and at times would chase around tlie place like mad. Women with crying childre nstood by and watched their homes destroyed, together with everything that they had in the world. Some of the negroes and foreigners who gathered about tho tire gave a most ghoulish exhibition of robbery that was revolting. Everything of value that could be secured was spirited away. Iiquor was carried away by the case. Money, clothing, furniture and even parcels of food disappeared as if by magic. Realizing this, N. R. Ifouk, instead of attempting to throw out his goods from the building, allowed them to be consumed by the flames rather than be victimized by the thieves. The police, busy with the fire fighting, were almost powerless to interfere. STOCK IS SAVED. Probably the most fortunate occurrence of the entire affair was the fact that the new drug store which was about to locate In the Garden hotel building had not been able to have their stock and fixtures moved into the building Saturday as they had intended. The valuable fixtures were lying In the freight house, and it was only due to tlie fact that the dray could not handle them that they were not taken to the store. The building had been leased for this purpose by Meltier and Meketlnskl. the real es tate men. for this purpose. lifist night the homeless Are victims sought shelter in tents, improvised shacks and any means of protection that they could procure. Many of them, unable to care for their goods, remained by them in the streets and vacant lots all through tlie night. Many sympathetic neighbors contributed money and food for their assistance. Many of the foreigners, almost starving as it was, were heart-broken over their additional loss. HEAVY ISIIIA(E LOSS. The greater part of the insurance was carried by the firms of Knotts & M Roberys. Holmes. Kuss & Co.. Johnson and Sons, Jeffrey & Morgan, and Walter S. Ross. Much speculating was done by the latter as to the action the , companies would take as a res'flt of the lire. It seemed to he the universal opinion that ail insurance would bo cancelled by the companies south of the Wabash tracks. Many of them already have refused to take policies in this locality, and it. appears as if the others would follow suit. It is expected that they will take action within the next week. All of the policies will be pent in by the local agents marked ' total loss." as there remained not a dollars worth of salvage on any of the ten buildings destroyed.

y South Chicago People Victim of Mishaps Yesterday Afternoon. South Chicago had more than its usual number of accidents yesterday. Some of them were close calls for the victims, hut none of them was so seri ously injured that a fatality will result. Tlie injured are: Mamie McKenzie, four years old, f'140 Iuella avenue, suffered a broken arm yesterday afternoon when she lost her balance while riding horseback. She was taken to her home. Martin McManus. 32 years old. 91 IS Superior avenue, a switchman, fell from a moving C, L. S. & E. train near Wolf lake yesterday afternoon. Suffered Internal injuries. Taken to South Chicago hospital. Ed Iirson, 32 years old. a carpenter Irving at 9358 Commercial avenue, suffered a crushed hand yesterday morning when he tried to make a landing from a gasoline launch at One Hundredth street. Taken to the South Chicago hospital where his thumb was amputated. Eva Sinclair, four years old. 900$ Commercial avenue, bitten in the cheek by a dog. Taken to her home where her wound was cauterized. AGED CITIZMICIDES Cornelius O'Keefe of South Chicago Hangs Himself in Wood Shed. Cornelius O'Keefe, 75 years old, of 10742 Iloxie avenue, committed sui cide last night by hanging himself to the crossbeam in the woodshed. He was found this morning by Mrs. Julia Kelly, who went into the shed at o'clock this morning. Mrs. Kelly lived in the same building with O'Keefe. He owned the building and no cause can be ascribed for his rash act other thai that his health was failing during the last few weeks and he had been very despondent, but never intimated that he would commit suicide. Tlie old man was a widower and leaves several daughters. PLEASANT PICNIC AT ST. JOHN YESTERDAY. Spring Hill Grove Seen of Badenser 1'lcnlc From Chicago. St. John, Ind., Aug. 3. (Special) Spring Hill Grove was the scene yesterday of one of the most pleasant picnics held there this season. It was held under the auspices of the Badenser society of Chicago. "With such a gathering tliero was no need of sign reading: "Heir wird Deutsch gesprochen." It was a German picnic right and everybody, whether German or not, en tered into the spirit. The signers of the society, who were among the excursionists, made the echo ring with German songs. Two young fellows who made a nuisance of themselves on the dancing floor were promptly ordered from the floor. The probabilities are that another picnic from Chicago will be held on the 23rd of this month. SUSPENSE FOR TRACK MEN. New York. Aug. 2. This was a day of suspense for track managers and turfmen alike. Trompt action by Govern r Hughes and the grand jury has proved that the state officials are not blind to the racing situation and hopes of the turf element that proceedings against them had "blown over" are now seen to be fallacious. Where the case is serious Is both on account of the attitude of the authorities and tlie wording of tlie Hart-Ag-new law. Governor Hughes' action in calling a special session of the County

Supreme Court shows that he will push every case to the utmost. While a conviction in any case leaves no alternative of fine but provides for an imprisonment of one year. As some of the officials of the Brighton track and several bookmakers have been indicted on several counts, on each of which they may get the penalty if convicted, it can be seen the matter is anything but a laughing one for them.
