DEAL NEW SCHOOL $18,000 Heating Plant Be ing Installed in the Emerson Building. E BETTER IN COUNTRY Massive Pile Has Been Built With Object of Giving Pupils Warmth, Light and Ventilation. The heating system for the new Em erson school building:, at Gary, Is now being installed by the B. F. Sturtevant company of Lowell, Mass., one of the largest of Its kind In the world. The cost of the hot air system of heating in this building will be $18,000, and is one of the most complete and modern in use in public buildings. The work of installing is being done by Louis Cole, who has come to Gary from Lowell especially to superintend this work. Mr. Cole is one of the most experienced men in the employ of the company. The heating system is the finest-' that has been Installed in any school in the country, not barring the famous schools of St Lou's, Omaha and Louisville. Problems Ably Solved. The great problems in every school are proper heating, lighting and ventilation, so that the student can have his mind clear and breathe fresh air, and at the same time be warm enough to be comfortable. In the system about to be Installed In Gary's splendid new building, the Sturtevant company claim that the air In the room will be entirely changed every fifteen minutes, by a wondeful method of ventilation. The heating' proposition is the one which the school board regarded as one of the most difficult that they have had to contend with and they feel that the question has been properly solved. Pralaes Local System. Mr. Cole said today that he had made a specialty of installing heating systems in school houses throughout the country, and he asserted that the one being put in the Kmerson building was one of the finest adapted for this purpose of any he had seen. He also com mended the architect of the building for the light which would be provided for the students. He said that the mistake of having poor light was a most common occurrence In building school houses and that the strain on the pupils' eyes was most injurious. One of the special features of the heating system which will be intalled is the footwarmers for the students, which will be placed in the corridors. As the students enter the building on a cold .morning they will sit on & bench on the side of the corridor, where their feet will hang over radiators set in the floor. In this- manner they win not only warm their feet comfortably but they will melt the snow which they carry in. BUILOIflG jjllE CHOSEN Indiana Harbor Commercial Club Home Will Stand on Guthrie Street.

JONES GIVES BODY TO RIVAL Telegrams'' From Victim's Brother Causes Eupture and Matter Is , Finally Settled. A suit for replevin of a dead body was instituted in Justice P. L. Fitzgerald's court this morning, -the claimant being Undertaker P. C. Flnnerty, and the defendant being Undertaker C. P. Jones. The undertaker's war broke out over the body of John Popich, who was killed by the interurban last Wednesday night. Each claimed the body by right of order from good authority, but Jones managed to be on the scene of the accident first and carried the remains to his morgue. Judge Fitzger ald issued 'the writ of replevin this morning, ordering' Jones to turn the body over to flnnerty. Conflicting Orders Are Issued. Immediately after the accident occurred. Dr. Templln, who is the city's health officer, was summoned to the scene and order the body taken to Jones' morgue. John Ivanich, a friend of the dead man, and a lodge brother. Ignorant of the instructions issued by Dr. Templin, ordered that the body be taken to FInerty's morgue. The undertaker arrived on the scene too late, however. Yesterday he received a telegram from Joseph Popich, a brother of the dead man, ordering that the body be sent to his home In Clarandan, Pa. On the strength of this telegram Flnnerty claimed the body, but Jones insisted on being paid 1 15 for his services". Flnnerty argued that this was an unreasonable amount for the work that had been done, and refused to pay it .oifering Jones $10, however. Jones still refusing, Flnnerty asked for a writ of replevin. He will ship the body to Clarandan this evening. It will be accompanied by Ivanich. BRYAN TO WINTER IN SOUTH. Will Pass Several Weeks In Texas and Oklahoma. Dallas Texas, Nov. 21. Mr. and Mrs. W. J.

SPENDS EHTIRE DAY HOLDING INQUESTS Interurban Company Criti cized For Not Having Fenders on Cars. Dr. T. B. Templin of Gary, the deputy coroner, spent the entire day yesterday in "holding inquests over the bodies o two men who were killed by the Gary & Interurban street railway.' In the case of Mike Curovich, who attempted to leave a moving car by jumping straight out onto the street, the company was absolved from all blame, but in the case of Joseph Po plch, who was killed while he was ly ing in an intoxicated condition on the tracks, the company wr.s criticized fo not having fenders on its cars. The car whim killed Joseph Pcpich was also being run by a student mo torman, who was being instructed by an old experienced motorman. Neithe of the men in control of the car saw the prostrate form of the intoxicated man until it was too late to apply th brakes. The manner In which Mike Curovich came to his death is a warning to othe foreigners, who have not learned how to alight from a car. Curovich jumped from the platform to the street wlthou taking hold of the handles or facing in the direction in which the car was moving. The car was going about si miles an hour and the foreigner was thrown under the wheels of the rear truck and had his arm cut off, in addition to Internal injuries, from which he died. The car which did the business was No. 101. The Inquests took the entire day and were in charge of Dr. Templin. BABY IS BURNED IN GO-CART ACCIDENT East Chicago, Ind. Nov. 21. When Mrs. Chauncey Hatfield cf Magoun avenue leaves her infant son in the house hereafter, it will be under the care of a more responsible person than their little 5 year old son. As the result of an accident that nearly proved fatal, the go-cart of the seven months old child was burned to ashes, while the baby itself suffered a severe blister on the top of its head. Its condition is not serious, however, and Mrs. Hatfield believes that the inflamation will be reduced in a few days. The Hatfields moved to this city but a month ago, and are engaged in light housekeeping at 4536 Magoun avenue. Early yesterday morning Mrs. Hatfield found it necessary to use some irons, and decided to request the use of those belonging to a neighbor. Leaving the baby securely strapped in the buggy, she told the little boy "not to touch the fire," and went to the adjoining home. The youngster, misunderstanding his mother's command, moved the baby's buggy a little nearer the heating stove, and thus caused the accident.

STARR THE MARK For 40 Years the Leader -

A piano costs a large sum of money. This is true even of a cheap one, and often a buyer thinks it wise to get the opinion of some outsider before purchasing. This affords the supposed friend a chance to make arrangements with the piano dealer, and as a result there is small chance that the customer will get a square deal in the matter of price. And this system is so outragous as the sliding scale scheme or the oily salesman, for often the supposed friend gets a commission from both the piano house and the customer.
