After months of delay, the Gary town officials have at last taken, steps which will lead to the organization, of one of the most efficient fire departments In Indiana. The city which now has the poorest fire protection will soon have the best.
That the city officials are determined
to have their fire fighting force under the command of an experienced fire fighter is shown by the fact that the office of chief of the fire department is not to be disposed of In Gary as a
juicy political plum, but Is to go to a
fire fighter of recognized ability.
The two candidates who are being
considered, and from whom the selection, will be made, are Joseph Weber, the assistant chief of the fire depart
ment of Boston, Mass., and Joseph
Fealey, formerly a captain in the Chi cago fire department and now a man
ager in Montgomery "Ward's big mall
order house. Will Be High Priced Men.
It is expected that if either of these men are secured for Gary, they will
demand a large amount of money for their services. It is thought by the members of the town board, however, that the money will be well spent it
the fire department of the new steel city is organized by an experienced fire fighter who will save the city from
many of the costly mistakes that
young and growing city would be like
ly to make.
Joseph " Fealey of Chicago is highly
ecommended by chief of the Chicago
ire department James Horan, who
says there is not a better or more
cientlfic fire fighter in Chicago than
Fealey.
The chief of the Gary department
will be selected at the next meeting of the town board and five regular city firemen will be hired at the same time.
Want Experienced Men. It is the purpose of the town trus
tees to hire men who have either had some experience in fighting fires or who appear to be susceptible to training. It
will be a hard task for the new chief to take green men and make firemen out of them, and so it will be the purpose of the town board to give, him the
est material possible. "When the personnel of the new de
partment is determined, the next step will be to provide the equipment with which to fight fires. The first thing
that win be done will be to erect a
temporary fire department in the rear
f the "Victoria hotel, which Is on
Broadway.
The new fire station will be built for
the purpose of fighting fires In the
business and residence district in the
first subdivision. In this locality is
the greatest amount of property to be
protected and it will therefore be given
the best protection.
Bny New Equipment.
The new fire station will be 24 by
40 feet and will be equipped with a
new hose cart and 1,200 feet of hose. This, in addition to the 600 feet which
the city now has, will make a total of
1,800 feet of hose with which the de
partment can fight fires. This will en
able the department to run four lines of hose to any fire in the business dis
trict.
There will be a horse and a regular
drop harness to go with the new out
fit and this is expected to be sufficient for the present needs or until the new
fire chief can organize the department
and make known his further needs.
President T. E. Knotts and Trustee
M. A. Caldwell went to Chicago today
for the purpose of purchasing the extra
equipment, and they outlined the plans
for the new fire department.
For the time being, the south side

Gary is to take on more airs and

pany that will be able to protect the city of its fire fiend.
From the number of plate glass win
dows that have been smashed of late
it seems that this would be an active
field for the insurance agent.
The local police have secured more
evidence and it is likely that a roundup of several more blind pigs will take
place In the near future.
A few big damage suits is the only
measure that will wake up the Lake Shore railroad to the fact they had bet
ter provide their exits to their ele
vated platform with lights.
Beginning tomorrow the Chicago,
Lake Shore and South Bend Interurban
railroad will commence a forty-minute schedule between Gary and Hammond.

If, you are an intelligent thinking woman, in need of relief from weakness, nervousness, pain and suffering, then it means much to you that therd is one tried and true honest square-deal medicine OF KNOWN COMPOSITION, sold by druggists for the cure of woman's ills. The makers of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription for the cure of weak, nervous, run-down, over-worked, debilitated, pain-racked women, knowing this medicine to be made up of ingredients, every one of which has the strongest possible endorsement of the leading and standard authorities of the several schools of practice, are perfectly willing, and in fact, are only too glad to print, as they do, the formula, or list of ingredients, of which it is composed, in
plain English, on every bottle-wrapper. Is this not a significant fact worthy of careful consideration? Women use Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription in preference to all other advocated medicines sold by druggists for their peculiar weaknesses and ailments
because it is THE ONE REMEDY which contains no alcohol or kabiUforming drugs, is not anything like advertised secret compounds or patent medicines. THE ONE REMEDY for women devised by a regularly graduated physician of vast experience in woman's ailments and carefully adapted to her delicate organism. THE ONE REMEDY good enough that its makers are not afraid to print its every ingredient on its outside bottle-wrapper. It's foolish often dangerous to be over-persuaded into accepting a secret nostrum in place of this timeproven medicine of KNOWN COMPOSITION. World's Dispensary Medical Association, Buffalo, N. Y.

Man Instantly Available. A man will be hired to stay with the chemical outfit all of the time and a telephone will be placed at his bed so that he will be instantly available in case of fire. It is hoped that when the provision is made for the organization of the new fire department that the insurance men will promptly revise the insurance risks and that the rate will be made as low as they should be in a city where there are so many fire proof buildings as In Gary.
Aesop's Fables. It appears to be the custom nowadays of certain and sundry self-pronounced literary folk to deride Aesop's fables as childish. Let these smarties try to produce some as good. The difficulty of fable writing is proved by the few who have tried it, and the still fewer who have succeeded.

There will be races for old and young, for greenhorns and experienced
skaters and many other special features to the entertainment of those who attend a large crowd is expected, as these parties given by the ladies of the church have become very popular. The members of the Swedish Lutheran congregation in Gary will hereafter hold regular weekly services on Sunday afternoon at their chapel on Jefferson street, near Sixth avenue. Rev. D. A. Lofgren of Michigan City has been conducting the services at Gary, and It is thought he will become
the permanent pastor of the congre
gation at this place. The work on both of Gary's new chapels, the Presbyterian and Congregational, are progressing nicely at the present time, the contractors being able to make great headway during the prosent fine weather. Work will be commenced immediately on the new pt?.r?sh home for the Rev. Father Francis Jansen, which was lately destroyed by fire. Funds have been collected for the new building and It is expected the contract will be let within a short time. The members of the Baptist faith in Gary are-jubilant over the fact that a Baptist church is soon to be established in Gary. Many meetings have been held during the past month and the organization of the church is now an assured fact.

for a mallard," said Sutphens, ac his
jaws closed together and the taste of
the dainty morsel in his mouth sent a delicious feeling through his frame that set his heart throbbing.
Sutphens cast another loving glance
down the river. The mallards were
still there. Their squaking increased and with a firm resolve Sutphens went down on his knee and started to crawl through the tall dry grass. Falling into muehrat holes and being pierced by a thousand sandburs was nothing to the determined hunter. The journey was a long and tiresome one and as the huge frame of Sutphens wriggled through the grass, he looked like an ominous looking .monster. More than half the distance was covered when Sutphens was compelled to rest. A peep at the water's edge revealed the fact that the ducks were still there. The rest of the journey was made without event and now everything was in readiness for the fatal shot which was either to fill the family larder, or necessitate a diet of pork and beans for
the balance of the week. Ills Aim Was Good. Sutphens looked his gun over carefully and raised it to his shoulder. He

Overwork and White Plague. One of the speakers at the tuberc losis congress laid emphasis upon the part played by overwork and nerv strain in the promotion of tuberculosis. It Is well for the people to be made aware of the fact, as modern science Is teaching them that tuberculosis is a social problem as much as a medical one. It is possibly the disease least related to drugs and the most closely allied to the facts and conditions of human association. The run-down system is the field for the propagation of the tuberculosis germ. Its vernacular appellation, the white death, is more than a picturesque description; it is a literal description of the disease that makes woeful ravage with humanity. As soon as the system loses its normal tone and vitality declines, the forces of disintegration become active. None of these is more pronounced than the tubular.
