Citizens of Toleston Offer a

$25 Reward For Capture of Missing Man. Up to this time the Gary or Toles

ton police have been unsuccessful in

picking p the fugitive from justice, Dan Ryan, who escaped from the Tol

eston Jail a few hours after he had been bound over to the superior court

by Judge Townsley. Reports came

Into the station several times today

that the man had been seen and the

police hurriedly followed up the clew,

but the trail did not prove to be very hot in either case.

Reward Offered for Arrest. The citizens of Toleston are offer

ing twenty-five dollars reward for the man's arrest and It is believed that he will be caught before many hours. All morning this morning and far into last night the search was continued by

the posse, together with the police. It is not thought that the man has made a getaway from this section of the

country as he probably would have been picked up by the police in some of the adjoining cities as a suspect, as the man is of uncouth appearance aside from the fact that he was hatless and without a coat. Police Looking For Htm. The police of all the surrounding cities have been notified to be on the lookout for the man, and the dragnet has been made as complete as possible. The reward which has been offered may spur the authorities to greater efforts in locating the man. It is thought that Ryan is a desperate character so that If he can secure firearms he would shoot on sight.

WRITING SALOONS COME TO HJWMOltD

Through the discovery of a little steel saw eight inches long and a quarter of an Inch wide in the cell of Joseph Ford, alias John Grant, who is

being held In Gary on a charge of forgery, a jail delivery was prevented Joseph Ford is the man who was captured while in the act of passing a forged check In the saloon of a woman by the iame of Mandy in South Gary. He wasaf terwards found to be a bad customer and is wanted by Captain P. D. O'Briah of the Chicago police department. O'Brian says that Ford Is wanted for embezzlement and forgery but the Gary

; authorities say they have such a case jagainst him that they will keep him In ary and have him sent to the Indiana

penitentiary ior nis crime. Some men who were being held in an adjoining cell happened to see the llt-

jtle saw which Ford had and they notl- ! fied the police. A search of Ford's ' f ij 1 1 n'o then maslo a -wl tliA ann. ......

discovered in a little crack in the floor. Asked to Stay In Gary Jail. Ford had just asked to be allowed to stay , in the Gary jal for three days more before, being compelled to go to Crown Point where he was to be held

pending his trial in the superior court

and it is believed that in these three

days he proposed to saw the bars of his cell and escape. The police are anxious to know how the saw could have been passed to the prisoner and they are going to keep a closer watch on the jail. The recent escape of Dan Ryan from the Tolleston Jail and of a prisoner from the East Chicago jail indicates that there is either an associate to aid in the release of prisoners or the Jailers over the county are rather careless.

PICfllC A JG SUCCESS Lake County Odd Fellows Association Holds Annual Outing at Hobart. Hobart, Ind., Aug. 14. (Special.) The third annual picnic of the Lake County Odd Fellows association, held here yesterday, was a complete success. The heavy rain of the night before settled the dust and finer weather could not have been asked for. Large crowds came In on all trains and the Nickel Plate special brought in about 200 people. The music furnished by Barnie Young's band was greatly enjoyed by all. A full house enjoyed the dance hfld in Strattan's opera house in the evening. What was beyond a question of a

doubt the best game of ball seen In

Hobart for a long time was played yesterday at the Odd Fellows picnic between the Maroons and. Lowell team.

Considerable hitting was done, but

very few errors made. The home team

had been strengthened for the occa

slon and the teams were very evenly matched, but the Maroons got the ad

vantage in the firs Inning and the Lowell boys were unable to take it

away. ' The score:

fare Will Bring Money in Hammond's Coffers.

Whiting, Ind., Aug. 14. (Special.)

The recent work, of the anti-temperance leagne In Whiting is showing the effect of Its campaign every day, for It keeps

the saloonkeepers in the old third ward devising various ways and means to

keep from going out of business.

As their licenses expire they are pre

paring to move across the line, cither Into the second wnrd or across the Hammond line, where they may still engage In the traffic.

Sullivan in Exodus. The latest saloonkeeper to be ousted from his former elaborate quarters Is

Mike Sullivan, proprietor of the Lion

liquor house, which was located in the Gruppe building on One Hundred and Nineteenth street, near New York avenue. Sullivan had one of the finest stands in Whiting. He had large plate glass windows In his place of business and these were generally a marvel of beauty, he employing a Chicago decorator to keep them in shape. The interior was furnished in grand style, his fixtures being of the finest mahogany and furniture of black leather was also In evidence. Moves in Second Ward.

Sullivan moved yesterday to the Porter and Kessler block In West One

Hundred and Nineteenth street, his

present location being in the second ward, t About the next to move will be Pat Phillips, who is now on One Hundred and Nineteenth street, opposite Oliver street. Philbue's license expires next month and he is already busy fixing up his store which he has rented In the Soltwedel black, also on One Hundred and Nineteenth street, next to Girard's buffet. Rembow Invades Robertsdale.

I Koltar and Adam Dudek.

BAND

Whiting Secret Society Will

Blow Its Own Horn Very Shortly. Whiting, Ind., Aug. 14. (Special.) An innovation introduced by the Masons of Whiting is meeting with the approval of every one in this city. The Masons will soon introduce a fine brass band to the citizens, only those being members of the order comprising it. Dr. G. S. Milliard has been chosen as drill master, Henry Beaubien as business manager, and Professor George C.

Hay, who is known for his excellent musical ability all through Indiana, as director. The band will consist of twenty-four members and will include the best musical talent of the city. Whiting has had several excellent bands, but for some reason or another they have always broken up, but the present body of men, all of whom are known for their "stick-to-it-iveness," are bound to make It a go and also make it the best we have ever had. Not a great deal can be done In the way of practice until after September, owing to the various members taking their vacation.

FARMER PASSES AWAY

Crown Point, Ind., Aug. 14. John Gast, the Porter county farmer who was attacked by a vicious bull last Friday morning, and lay in a field unable to rise for five hours before he was discovered by members of his family, died at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon as a result of his injuries.

His children are Joseph Gast of Valparaiso, George and William Gast, who reside on farms in Union township, Anthony, John and Albert Gast, who live at home, Mrs. Peter Bentley and Mrs. Christ Martin of this city, Mrs. James Stupack of Michigan City, and Mrs. Michael Hend-

. erlong of Crown Point.
