AUTO SUES

FROM FIRE LOSS Big Stoddard-Dayton Takes Crown Point Fire Engine to Schererville to Extin-1 guish Conflagration That Threatened Little Hamlet. EIGHT MILE TRIP ' IN THIRTY MINUTES Twelve People and Two-Ton Fire Engine Taken By Automobile From' Crown Point To Schererville In Record-Breaking Time , last Night. Crown Point. Ind., Ang. 14. (Spe cial.) In the way ahe snved Soberer-. Title from being destroyed by tire laat night, Crown Point forges to the front again in the ranka of notoriety. Tbia time the Hub set the precedent in the way of an automobile volunteer fire department, establishing a record for a ions distance run of eight mllea In leaa than thirty minutes, pulling old fashioned hand pump engine weighing nearly two tons between Crown Point and Schererville, up. hill and down, in remarkably fast time. Big Machine Turna Trick. Mrs. Hart's Stoddard-Dayton car was the machine that performed this remarkable feat, with Guy C. Clark at the steering wheel. Mr. Clark volunteered to take the old engine to, Schererville in response to a call of the people there lor aid from the Crown Point fire department to extinguis 5$w blaze that threatened the entire liage. ' If the . Stoddard-Dayton people want an example of . a durability contest for their car, all they need to do is to refer to Crown Pointers who witnessed the run. Fire Breaks Out. Last evening between 5 and 6 o'clock a telephone message was received from Schererville stating that the large hay barn of John Treinen, containing fifty or sixty tons of pressed hay, was on fire, and asking the assistance of the Crown Point fire department as the blaze was threatening the entire vil lage. As Schererville has no water pressure it was thought at first that their plea was useless, until the old hand engine used years ago when Crown Point relied solely on this method of protection from fire was thought of. Beaten Alt Records. It would have taken an ordinary team at least an hour and a half to make the run, and by that time the entire village could be in flames. Guy D. Clark, driving the Hart StoddardDayton touring car, offered to pull the engine to the scene of the fire, and with sjfc passengers in the machine and as many more on the fire engine, the race to Schererville was started. And the men on the engine were given a ride they will not forget in years to come. Everything went smoothly until the Neundorf farm was reached, when they caught up with the Manning tea and coffee wagon, where Clark had to bring his automobile to such a sudden stop, to keep from running into the rig, that the old fire engine, not supplied with brakes, collided with the rear of Clark's machine and did considerable damage to the expensive car. Blame Driver For Accident. Eye witnesses declare that the driver of the coffee wagon was wholly to blame for the accident, as he could have given twice as much road as he did, and that he deliberately stopped in the middle of the road to prevent the machine going by. His version of the affair, however, is different, claiming that his horses became frightened by the noise of the old fire engine and the yelling of the crowd in the auto and that he was powerless to prevent his horses from blocking the road. Much indignation was aroused at the time of the accident against the driver of the coffee wagon on account of his action and the damage to the automobile. In spite of the fact that the old engine had not been used since the Merrillville fire, some six years ago, it worked to perfection when the scene of yesterday's blaze was reached, ad j had the supply of water been arequate the fight fighters would have gotten the blaze under control. Barn an Entire Loss. The barn and its contents was .j entire loss, but the residents of the village are considering themselves lucky that the arrival of the auto made It possible to save the adjoining buildings. , Two Jews were seen loitering around the scene of the fire earlier in the day, and It is thought that the fire was started by them, either carlessly or Intentionally. A search was made for them last night by the authorities, but tbey could not be located. Clark, accompanied by Marshal Young, Vernon

Forty Members Present. There were in the neighborhood of 40 members of the association present. The representatives of the Chicago Telephone company put both the fifteen cent "two number call" and the twenty cent "get the party call" before the business men and they decided on the twenty cent call unanimously. Henry Loveridge then asked that the Hammond Business Men's association give the the Trades and Labor council its moral support for the -Labor Day celebration at Douglas park. A. M. Turner made a motion that the Ham mond celebration be .given the stamp of approval of the association but Louden Bomberger amended Mr. Tur ner's motion to read that the association gives its support to, the Hammond celebration providing it would not be construed as favoring the local cele bration over the Gary one. The whole effect of the motion therefore was that the amendment neutralized the motion and the business men of Hammond may Ib"" as" the' please regarding whethr they will celebrate here or in Gary. Commltte Makes Report. While the Hammond Business Men's association refused to make official cognizance of the proposed agreement among the business men of the city not to patronize charity advertising the committee was allowed to report and it was agreed that as many of the mem bers as wanted to could sign the agree ment.

"SHE WOULD BE A WIDOW"

But Sidney Wouldn't Die So Hattie Left Him in Disgust. NOVEL DIVORCE SUIT IS FILED Whiting People . Figure .in Romance Which Is Revealed Today in Superior Court. Here's a "She Would-Be a Widow tory from real life. If yon were a comely young woman of 23 and you knew a sickly old man of 53 years of age, who had a life insur ance policy ana a prnsmn jr bon lil warm up to him and finally mar ry hm and then the old man should get well j would you desert him, or would make the best of a bad bargain? That is Just the proposition which was put up to Mrs- Hattie Halght of Whiting and she decided it by deserting her husband. She couldn't stick it out until she did and so she left him and now he Is suing for a divorce. Complaint Filed Today. The complaint which was filed In the Lake Superior court this morning In the case of Sidney Halght vs. Hattie Taight, is one of the most unique that has vet been filed in the local courts. The story of a young woman marry ing an Ola man wun a jhc inauiauwc policy and a bad cough, has been more r less of a fiction, but in this case.it is a fact and even if Hattie Haight did call Sidney, her husband, "an old grayheaded fool." as is alleged in the complaint; he finally got wise to her and he is now taking the necessary steps to prevent her from becoming his bene ficiary. Was Resident of Whiting. Sidney Haight has been a resident of Whiting for a number , of .years where he was employed in the Standard Oil company's plant as assistant fire chief. It appears that his wife came from Jackson. Mich., and when she met Sid ney and found that he was sickly and had a life insurance policy and a pen sion, she thought the young girls of Whiting were overlooKlng a gooa thing. It was not long before she persuaded Sidney Halght that he waa a pretty nice old man and that It would not be a bad idea for them to get married in pite of the fact that he was 53 years old and she was 23. Only Thirty Years Difference. What Is a little matter of thirty years difference In agen when the life insurance tables show that you have a ten to one chance of getting rid of a husband in a few years. The marriage seemed to agree wonderfully with Sidney Halght. He immediately Improved as soon as the ceremony was over, and it was not long before he was fly and skipper as a young man. But Sidney's good health started trouble In the family. It was then that Hattie gave voice to her disappointment. She told him that he was an "old gray headed fool." He was beginning to be pretty well convinced of the fact himself and so ha rtirln't sav much. Then she came right out and told him that she had "married him in the first place expecting that he would die." Waiting For Dead Men's Shoes. That rather got on his nerves. He didn't like the idea of living with a woman vulture who was sticking around waiting for him to drop off so that she could take hold of his -worldly possessions. The upshot of it was that she finalally got tired of waiting for him to die. The longer she waited, the stronger and more alive he got. It was awfully discouraging. Finally she came to the conclusion that she was not going to waste all of her young life waiting for his demise, and so she packed up her things and left for Jackson. Mich., where she has been trying to forget her little financial venture down in Whiting. Getting Back to Earth. But by this time all of the romance had gone out of Sidney Haight's last marriage. He gas beginning to see things In taheir real llgnt. He nau taken a little flight but he was getting back to terra firma. He was advised that he had better get a divorce or his wife would get his property anyway, so he filed a complaint In the Lake Superior court in which he stated the facte as given above.

6 PROVED BILES! Catherine Musial, of Roby, Neglects Her Children in Shocking Manner and the Kindhearted Priest Takes Charge of Them. CALL ON TRUSTEE ' FOR ASSISTANCE Hammond Official Helps Whiting Priest To Get Children Placed In Diocesan Orphanages at Ft. Wayne and Lafayette With Consent of Unnatural Mother. Another Hammond woman hns prove herself unworthy' of the high responsibilities of a mother. For the second time this week the attention of Township Trustee Richard Schaaf has been called to the depravity of a mother and the neglect to her family which has resulted therefrom. Rev. Father Felix Thoman Serocynskl of St. Adelbcrt's church, W kiting, has directed a letter to Mr. Schaaf in which he asks that the township trus tee assist him in having the three children of Catherine Musial, who resides in Roby, sent to an orphanage. Father Serocsynskt stntes that he has already made arrangemtnts to have the children received in the orphanage but he wants, the township to pay the car fare. - i-- , ... ; The following letter iioct Father -Seroczynski gives something of an idea of the conditions under which these little children are living, and reveals a condition that few Hammond people would believe could exist. rrlest Writes Letter. Whttlng, Ind., Aug. 12, 1908, Mr. Richard Schaaf, Hammond, Ind. Dear Mr. Schaaf:- I am almost compelled to ask for another favor. You will probably recall the time when I made application for assistance for a family in Roby, the father of which was burned to death. Three children and the wife are still living in Roby in downright squalor. The mother of the children has been conducting herself very improperly, according to the story of the neighbors, and she has taken almost no care of the children. Neighbors have been feeding and clothing the children. The mother has been too indifferent to even go to you for monthly assistance as I told her to and as you or Mr. Smith, I forget which, told me to inform her. Now it has become imperative to take the children away from her and this she has permitted me to do. I have made application at our diocesan orphanages and have succeeded in securing admittance for all three children. One of these orphanages, that for boys, is in Lafayette; the other, for girls, is in Fort Wayne. Now the children are all extremely young, the boy, the oldest of the three. Is not more than six years of age. Hence it will be necessary for some one to accompany them to the asylums. This will mean an outlay of . from twelve to fifteen dollars. One of the neighbors has volunteered to go. Could I receive the above amount from the township? Wants R. R. Fare For Children. I have made arrangements to send the children Friday. If you could, without great inconvenience, assist us by paying the.raUroad fare of the woman taking the children I would be deeply grateful to you. I shall try not call upon you too frequently for assistance, but in this instance I am almost compelled to do so for I am called upon so frequently to make contributions in such instances that it becomes Impossible for me to assist all. The names of the children I cannot give you accurately. The name of the family is Musial. The ages of the children are approximately six. three and one years. They have distant relatives, but these are either unwilling or unable to assist them. Trusting ttrat 'you will be able to assist me and assuring you, of my gratitude for past favors, I beg leave to remain yours very sincerely, FELIX THOMAS SEROCZYNSKL HUSBAND SAYS WIFE TURNED HIM OUT.

He could not put up with that sort of treatment and so has filed a complaint in which he asks for a divorce.
