Axe and Guns Figure Prominently in An Arrest Made Among Gary Foreigners Last Saturday Night Bloodshed Averted. OFFICERS WOULD IE SHOT TO RILL Police Will Be Prepared to Meet Unruly Element and Eead Paper to Foreigners With Gun in Hand Women Were Also Taken In By the Authorities. Sergeant Glenn Rambo and Officer Gus Newnian nearly had the same trouble in arresting: a man and woman Saturday night In one of the foreign shacks that Chief Martin had when he attempted to secure evidence against some of them that they were selling liquor without a license. One of the men rushed at Newman with an axe, but was held back by other men who stood around the two officers. The trouble was caused when Newman and Rambo went to the shack of the foreigners for whom :they. had two warrants, one for Katie Harmbos, alias Mary Rusno and John Mustlc, charging adultery. The warrant was sworn out by the husband of Katie Harmbos. The officers apeared at the shack Saturday afternoon together with the man who swore out the warrant and had the parties identified. Read Warrant with Gun In Hand. Just as the officers attempted to put the handcuffs on the man, Harmbos attempted to hit the man under arrest, and when the police interfered the the man made an attempt to hit Newman. He became so unruly that the officer found it necessary in self-defense to use his club, and he hit him on the side of the head, causing a gash which necessitated medical attention. One of the other men then became so angry that he went across the street in Hungary row and secured an ax, and started back after the police. When he was not more than a hundred feet from the police his comrades held him so that he would not get into trouble. Sergeant Rambo said that if the vicious looking brute had come within ten feet of where they stood with that ax that they would have shot his dead. The man and the women were shackled together and brought to the station. The women also resisted, but she was taken from the shack by main force. So treacherous and mean were the - foreigners in this shack that the police took no chances in making the arrest and read the warrants with their guns in their hands. DEGRESS RESPONSIBLE FOR MANY HOLDUPS Wench Who Is Companion of Black Thugs Is Also Arrested. The police of Gary last Friday night arrested two negroes, in whom they be lieve to have captured two fellows who are responsible for many of the petty hold-ups around Gary. Along with the two was arrested a wench, who goes under several aliases, and who is though to be the companidn of one of the negroes. The two negroes are Herman McLawrence and William Broglan, alias Brown. They were arrested by Officers Jurich and Marquart, while they were in the act of beating up George Desbit, a foreigner, who had ventured down to the negro shacks where the trio was assembled In drinking. The two officers, who just happened to come along at the time, noticed the two blacks in back of the shack beating up the foreigner. The officers interfered, and upon searching the assailants found that they had already secured the watch of their victim. Desbit claims to have lost $48 in the holdup. The two negroes were placed under $1,000 bonds each by Justice Fitzgerald, while the wench was fined $21.00 on the charge of drunkenness. The other two fellows will have their trial this week In the Crown Point circuit court. PRAIRIE FIRE . BREAKS OUT.

CRITICIZE MI-SALOON LEAGUE False Charge Made That Gary Police Are Not Doing Their Duty. W. H. Blodgett, the staff man of the Indianapolis News who made an awful mess of the Gomper's fiasco for his paper, has duplicated the trick in the "blind tiger" story he has in Saturday's issue. He says: "Another place that is noted for its 'blind tigers' is the city of Gary in the norther npart of Lake county. At one time there were more than one hundred saloons In that town. They were all bunched in a locality known as the 'black patch,' and there was practically no attempt on the part of the police to regulate them. But the people in that locality who do not believe in saloons got after them under remonstrance law, and about fifty of the places were knocked out. It is asserted now that the greater part of these fifty saloons are really 'blind tigers.' Under the blind of poolrooms, soft drink parlors and various other names, they are selling beer and booze in the good old way, and the mere fact that they have no retailers' license does not interfere with business. In fact, 'trade is active and labor is busy,' to quote an ante-election statement of the Hon. Ad dison C. Harris. "It should be stated that Lake county stood "strongly for the county option law. It went republican and the temperance people rejoiced at what they called an indorsement of the county option, and they are preparing to go after the saloons under that law. But they are not, as far as I can learn, making any strenuous efforts to clean out the "blind tigers.' That law has been on the books for many months, and there is no record anywhere of the Anti-Saloon League and kindred organizations making an effort to punish the keepers of these places. They got the "blind tiger" law, and then went away and left it. There wil be no use in Lake county of local option as long as the 'blind tigers' are not molested." REPUBLIC Of ML TIE East Chicago, Ind., Nov. 23. Activity began in earnest -at the Republic Iron and Steel mills here this morning when the busheling mill was opened to capacity. By the end of the week the plant will be working 1,400 men. For some time , the Republic has run intermittently and the officia'ls promise that the plant will run at full capacity and will continue right along. Orders are booked ahead now to keep the mills running into the summer of 1909. Prosperity was never more evident in East Chicago than it Is now and prospects for its continuance could not be brlzhtr.

THE PLAINTIFFS WILL APPEAL Judge Huber Holds That Person in Whose Favor Attachment Was Decided, Should Have Sued. The suit Saturday of Attorneys Fox and Dunn vs. Townsley for the collection of money which they claim was withheld unjustly by the court for court fees was tried Saturday before Judge A. C. Huber and the verdict in favor of the defendant was rendered this morning. The specific reason stated by Judge Huber was that the person to whom the fees were due should have sued, -namely Mike Jakov, instead of his attorneys, Fox and Dunn. The case Saturday afternoon created considerable interest because of the fact that the ability and integrity of the justice of the peace was attacked by the attorneys who were acting as the plaintiffs. The trial lasted but a short time, but few witnesses being put on the stand, as it was largely a question of law rather than of fact. Attorney Clyde Hunter, who appeared for the plaintiffs, maintained that in the attachment case where the verdict was given- to the plaintiff that the costs should be assessed against the defendant Attornej' N. A. Beck, who appeared for Townsley, said that such was not th case in the first place, that the costs should be deducted from the amount of the judgment and that the case was one which should have been brought by the plaintiffs in the attachment instead of by their attorneys, which was in accordance with he ruling of Judge Huber. Attorney Fox and Dunn say that the matter will not drop here, that they feel that they have been wronged and that they will see the fight to a finish. Articles of Incorporation.

Thousands of women are using toilet preparations unsuccessfully. Cosmetics fail to improve their thick, muddy complexions, or to banish the pimples, blackheads and crow's-feet. No wonder. Their trouble lies far deeper than the skin. They have bad blood, and bad blood In 90 per cent of the cases arises from inflammation of the mucous membrane. Their blood is filled with poison which ls certain to break out in unsightly humors and blotches while the pale, drawn faces, deep circled eyes, stooping shoulders and weak backs complete the story of suffering and despair. Inflammation of the mucous membrane is catarrh. ' Banish catarrh and complexions will clear as if by magic, pain vanish, eyes will brighten, faces become plump and shoulders erect. Perfect beauty goes only with perfect health, and perfect health for women can only be obtained through Rexall Mucu-Tone, the one positive and permanent cure for catarrh. Mme. Swift, 44 W. 26th St., New York City, the most famous beauty specialist in the world and an accepted authority on all relating thereto, has this to say of Mucu-Tone: "I can strongly endorse the claims made for Rexall Mucu-Tone as a cure for systematic catarrh. Its tonic effects are remarkable. It builds up the strength and restores vitality. If women who are tired and run down, lacking in energy and vitality, will use Mucu-Tone they will praise it as I do for its strengthening and healing qualities."

I INDIANA KnnHk (teUllnnnkinMl FOREIGNERS SUFFER ITHJYE DISEASE Steps May Be Taken to Have Deported to the Old Country. ALL EAST CHICAGO VICTIMS? Unless It is Checked With Drastic Measures Entire Community May Be Affected. (Special to The Times.) East Chicago, Ind., Nov. 23. Suffering with a very contagious disease of tlfe eye, it is very likely that the federal authorities wil ltake action on the case of two foreigners residing in the Oklahoma district and that their deportation will follow. The two men in question are afflicted with trachoma, one of the diseases for which an immigrant may be deported and the men have a very severe case. Their affliction would not have been known had they not visited the office of a local physician tor treatment. As soon as the nature of the disease became apparent, this practitioner immediately notified the state authorities of his case, and is now awaiting their nstructions. The patients are father and son, the latter having arrived in this country but a year ago. Whether he brought the disease to this country and H was contracted by the father here is not known, but the fact that both men are employed in one of the local mills leads the physician to be lieve that such is the case. Should the men be permitted to remain at work, it is possible for every man working with them to become affected, the use of towels and soaps being the only means of contagion. I a Dreaded Dinease. The disease is a well-known one to physicians and consists 'of an ulcerlike formation, or formations, on the under sida of the eyelid. It is painful in the extreme and in severe cases, such as those reported to The Times representative, the eyelids assume a very good resemblance to a piece of raw meat. Entire communities are known to have become afflicted with the disease through the carelessness of one man, and the extent of the contamination in Oklahoma is as yet unknown. Should the diseased parties be deported, they will be the first immigrants ever reaching East Chicago who were returned to their native land. The extent of the federal jurisdiction, however, is limited to a certain number of years' residence in this country and the local physician is waiting for advices regardng whether merely the son, or the entire family, may be deported. RE LOSES HIS TEMPER W. S. Hudson Imperils Life of Man Passing Beneath Him. What might have proven a serious accident to passers-by was brought about last Saturday noon when Archi- ! tect Walter S. Hudson, in an angry mood, hurled some stonecutter's tools from tlie second story of the Burge K.itiHino- in r.jrv Hudson was the designer of the building, and last Saturday entered into an argument with one of the stone masons on the building, who was at work in carving a cap. In the course of the arguments, Hudson picked up his tools, including chisels and mallets. and hurled them to the ground. One of the flying chisels hit a man who was passing underneath the building, on the hat and partly tore off the rim.

I BIG CLASS CONFIRMED (Special to The Times.) East Chicago, Ind., Nov. 23. Bishop Paul Rhode, who was consecrated as the first Polish bishop In America, last September, paid his first visit to East Chicago on Saturday afternoon and was met with a gala display. A parade four blocks in length greeted him as he stepped from the 4 o'clock Pennsylvana train, and from that time until last evening he was alternately feted and revered as his title and honor deserved. At Krupa's hall he addressed practically the entire congregation of St. Stanislaus' church, after which a celebration in the churchyards, and arbors followed. A parade through the Pol ish settlement concluded the day's program, and the bishop prepared for the confirmation of eighty children at the Sunday morning services. Bishop Rhode is a man of pleasing mien and was vastly pleased with the reception tendered him on his first blshoprie visit to St.. Stanislaus.' He commented strongly on the energies of his communicants in building up a Polish church in this city and praised Rev, Father Bolka for his unceasing activities in his parsh. The ceremones of yesterday were witnessed by about five 'hundred church members from Indiana Harbor, East Chicago and Whiting, and were said to be the most interesting ever held in connection with the confirmation of children of the parish. TERRIER SAVES A FAMILY. (Continued from page one.) in death and although they began to work over the patient at 2:30 o'clock in the morning it was not until 6:00 o'clock that any encouraging signs as to her being saved could be given out." The husband and son had completely recovered when Mrs. Lippelt showed signs of being revived and their joy at the news after their spell and the anxiety was said to have beeen great. Dr. Doollttle, in speaking of the affair, said it was one of the closest calls to death by asphyxiation which he had ever, seen and that so alarming was their condition that within a few more minutes it would have been beyond human power or skill to have saved any one of the four. Explosion Was Imprndlng. A kerosene lamp was burning on the table and the physician said it was nothing short of miraculous to think that the gas fumes in the air had not become ignited by the flame of the lamp. If this, had been the case and : an explosion would have occured, the family would have met certain death. Mr. Lippelt is In the employ of the Knickerbocker Ice company, by whom he is employed as driver. He was able to return to work , this morning , and upon inquiring it was also learned learned that Mrs. Lippelt, although trifle weak, has completely recovered. Dog Greater Pet Than Ever. The little family are rejoicing upon being snatched from the. jaws of death, especially that it was brought about by a little dog which they have always thought much of. "but which is now dearer than ever to them and on next Thanksgiving Day, which is rapidly approaching, each member will undoubtedly render thanks for having such a faithful canine about their piemises. The Horseless Age. It ls mentioned in an item In the Horseless Age that the city of Milwaukee will, in a short time, use no horses for municipal purposes, except to draw fire engines. The city officials are convinced that the automobile is so far in advance of the horse ln cost, maintenance, and utility, that there is hardly any room for a comparison. Glue for Leather and Metal. According to Power, a flexible g!u for attaching leather to metals may be made by adding one part of Venetian turpentine to four parts of glue! This mass is heated in a glue pot as usual until it becomes sticky and ceases to give off bubbles. It works best when fresh.
