THE CITY j EY EUS- 1

Had Taken Wing. Mrs. Croesen, living at G59 Pennsylvania avenue, telephoned the police yesterday that a drunken man. In a. bad state, was lying near her residence during the hard rain and that the man might suffer seriously from the exposure. She stated that he seemed so intoxicated that he could not move and w-as a source of annoyance to the neighbors. Officer Mulchahey was sent to the place as soon as an officer could be spared at the station, but by that time the drunk had disappeared.

Guests of Friends. Oscar Krinbill, manager of the Chi

cago Telephone company of Hammond,

and F. Y. Keator, the promoter of the f

Valparaiso, Hobart and Gary electric line, were in Gary Saturday afternoon as the guests of Cyrus Ward and Martin Gill, the local real estate men. The party had dinner at the Gary hotel, after which they drove about the city.

$25 for Couple. Beginning at the Majestic theater tonight the Marion-Woods' Stock company, in repetoire, will be the attraction. The opening attraction will be a four-act comedy drama, entitled "The Elm Dale Farm." The price in admission will be cut tonight to 10 cents for any seat in the house. A number of valuable prizes will be given away and everything will be done to make the performances attractive and to fill the theater every night. On next Wednesday night a prize of J25 will be given to the couple who will agree to be married upon the stage during the performance. Another feature will be the distribution of money prizes for the best local vaudeville act. This is an opportunity for amateurs to appear. Only three turna, either single or double, will be accepted each week, none to run longer than ten minutes. The money will be divided as follows: The or.e receiving the heartiest approval, 2.50; second best $1.50; third best, $7. Applicants are to call at the theater, Connecticut street and

Fifth avenue, or at Mr. oods room

at the Gary hotel.

Between acts under the new arrangement vaudeville acts will be given and

the show will start and close with

moving pictures and illustrated songs.

Of course, in a few thort weeks it will take more than an ordinary spring shower to stop a ball game. By a little closer inspection the police might be able to find more gambling paraphernalia in Gary. For further information look ever your back numbers of The Times. Be kind to the toddling infant on'the street. What do you know but some day he may be a phenomenal baseball

pitcher. Its plain to be seen that the assessor won't stand you off very much longer. The residents of the Calumet river district are preparing for their annual spring migration by boat. So far the Gary teachers hare made their loaves no smaller. Just think of

the knocks they would get from their

customers. The arrest of the keepers of blind

tigers sets a dangerous precedent. What

if the police should now get after parties who are really guilty.

At the present time there are a few homes in Gary that are handicapped by a mortgage, so it will be useless for the automobile saleman to come around. You can't dodge the enevitable much

longer. It getting go-flsher every day. On the other hand what's the use of the near Garj- farmers sub-dividing their farm lands. What's the matter

with raising wheat in the lower forty.

Ernst fchepard, secretary of the Plasterers' local union, has called a meeting of that organization, and all members are requested to be present. The meeting will take place at the Wabash Inn, at the corner of Xinth avenue and Jefferson street.

With Gary's Colored polk

Mr. Nelson Ponyard came down from South Bend last Saturday evening to spend Sunday with his wife, Mrs. Pon

yard. He was very much impressed

with the city and may decide to come

to Gary at some future day to make his home. He is an experienced steel

forger and has worked in the Singer

shops in South Bend for two years. A supper wa3 served at the First Baptist church last Saturday night. A dance was given at Gregory hall

last Saturday and there was quite a large number present. Mr. John H. Perrin of Meridian, Va., left the city last Thursday. Mr. Charles Smith of Braidwood, 111., has moved his family to Gary and will make his home on Mr. King's place, on South Adams street. Mr. Smith owns considerable stock, and it was necessary to charter a car to ship his stock. Through some mistake he was unable to get his stock and goods from the car, the railroad agents claiming that the transportation had not been paid. The matter was placed in the hands of lawyers, Harris & Bretsch, and they

will secure damages. Mr. Smith lost a fine Shepherd dog at Chicago, valued at something over $100. Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the state board of health, and Dr. W. A. Evans, head of the Chicago health department, will speak at the Assembly hall. Sixth street and Broadway, on Tuesday evening, at S o'clock: "Prevention and Cure of Tuberculosis." The lecture is free and, in view of th fact that statistics show that this dreade disease has made awful ravages among our people, the colored people should hear these eminent men, and these timely facts, the heeding of which will save many dollars, much suffering and a large number of lives. Mrs. Charles Taylor of East Thirteenth street contiinues to be somewhat under the weather.

The regular monthly meeting of the Gary teachers was held on Saturday at the Jefferson School building. The institute was discussed and the special instructors gave many valuable points which will be followed by the teachers during the coming month. Professor Sargent, principal of the high school made a report of his visit to the meet of the association held at Indianapolis on April 1, 2, and 3. The principal subject which came up for

discussion was the play ground and its place in education. It is the intention of the local school board to provide a play ground not only for the Jefferson school, but all the other schools in Gary. The teachers will be made supervisors of the play grounds the same as is done in the larger cities. The school board will make an effort to purchase property surrounding the various schools for play ground purposes.

These grounds will be covered with block soil and grasB seed will be planted at once and everything will be done to make the surroundings attractive to the children. At the Jefferson school the local school board are now negotiating for property west of the school building.

A regular out-door play ground will be ! arranged with all kinds of athletic j paraphernalia, the same as can be seen ;

in the Chicago parks, where these play grounds have been secured for the children. These .features are already pro

vided for at the new Emerson school. I At the next regular meeting of the j teachers, all the teachers north of the ; Wabash tracks will hold their meeting ' in the Jefferson school, with Profesisor j Sargent as Instructor. All south of the Wabash tracks will meet at the school ' at Fourteenth and Broadway, with Principal Brinkley as instructor. !

them what they must do to bring the party back home again. The speech made a hit, and the talk of Marshall for president broke out afresh. Ia .Not Returned Home. Governor Marshall has not arrivedr home yet, but will be back in a day or two, and it is safe to say that his head will be of the same size as when he went away. He is not the kind of a man who is affected by praise or flattery. If he was not a candidate for

president before he went east he will not be a candidate for president when he returns to the west. There has been a good deal of talk about Governor Marshall as a candidate for United States senator against Senator Beveridjje two years hence, but there is nothing in that, either, lie will not ask for that office, and will not be a candidate. He has given this out definitely. He says he has promised to be governor for four years and lie would not resign the office to become senator. Would Split I'nrty. Another thing- that would stand in the way of his becoming a candidate for senator is that it would split the party square in two, for he would undoubtedly have the active opposition of S.-nator Shively. They never have jibed" very well in polities, and it is not believed likely that Shively would do anything toward helping Marshall to anything. And, besides all this, Judgi- Jof-'-'ph H. Shea of Seymour will be a candidate for t'nited States senator in two years, and it is safe to predict that he will get all the support that Shively can give him, for .Judge Shea did more than any other man to elect Shively. He was Shively's campaign manager and he was a good one, too. it is true that O-overnor Marshall is taking a very active interest in the reorganization of the democratic party along old-fashioned democratic lines, but he is not using his office to do it. The party recognizes the fact that as governor he is the higgest man in the party in this state today, and that they must pay attention to what he says. Governor JJirshal! has not allied him

self with rither faction of the party.

but is keeping in the middle of the

road, so as to be able talk turkey to all sides. He knows that to be a candidate for I'niteiJ States senator would mean a split in the party, and he would then be accused of insincerity in his statement that lie would be governor for four years and that he would not

do anything else, and he is not going to take this position. There will, however, be the usual number of candidates for senator, among them being L. Ert Slack of Franklin, John E. Lamb of Terre Haute and possibly John W. Kern of this city, though Kern's intentions are not known definitely.

Wednesday. April 28, is the date set for the instiution of the new lodge of Gary Elks. The various committees who were appointed at the meeting last Friday night are already preparing for a big time. The entertainment committee is the only one that was not selected last Friday night. This will be done later in the week and

they will at once busy themselves in the arrangement of the program, which will consist of speakers and vaudeville acts. The installation of the Elks lodge will take place at the Bfnzenhof hall, which is to be the future home of the Elks. The services of H. U Blaney of the Derby theater have been secured, and other high class entertainers from Chicago will be present to provide entertainment for the occasion. A buffet luncheon will be served at the hall. Deputy Grand Exalted Ruler TV. A. Ream of Peru, Ind., will be present and have charge of the installation of the Gar ylodge. East Chicago, being the mother lodge of the local organization, will have charge of the initiation

ceremonies. Attorney Clyde Hunter, who is on the invitation committee, on Saturday s"ent out invitations to the following lodges to be present on the 28th. They are: Joliet, Chicago. Hammond, East Chicago, Valparaiso, Michigan City, Laporte, South Bend and Elkhart. It is thought a large number of representatives of each lodge will be present. The following are the committees appointed. General committee H. H. Highlands, G. II. Manlove, II. A. Vossler, A. B. Wolfe, Carl Huettner, George O'Donnell, Harry Moose, A. B. Burke.

The installation of lodge No. 10S,

Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, in Gary, in the Binzenhof hall Sunday-

afternoon and evening was an event of

great importance in the new steel city.

The new lodge started out with

seventy-five members, of which sixty are already members of the order and

will take their demit from other lodges, and fifteen were initiated last evening. T. TV. Dodge, assistant grand master, with headquarters at Cleveland, was In charge of the installation. The meeting was an enthusiastic one and in view of the fact that the Chicago, Iake Shore & Eastern yards at Kirk are one of the largest in the world, it is expected that the order will grow and eventually become one of the largest in the west. Officers Are .ajiied. The officers who were Installed were as follows: Master Attorney TV. M. Dunn.

Past master C. R. Frain. Vice paster George Bell. Secretary William Knowles. Financier C. H. Berry. Journal agent A. J. Mitchell. Delegate to national convention at Columbus, May 10 C. H. Berry. Alternate to Columbus convention William Knowles. Medical examiner Dr. J. TV. Neukirk. Chaplain R. E. Moses. Conductor C. R. Scott. Warden A. W. Nelson. Inner guard U. TV. Stewart. Outer guard J. TV. Jones. After the meeting the ladies' auxil

iary served a sumptuous banauet in

Binzenhof hall. Grand Master T. R. Dodge and Master TV. M. Dunn were both presented with a bouquet of flowers and made neat speeches in which they thanked the members of the order for them. The meetings will be held on the first and third Sundays of each month.

The Japanese Baby. The first name is given to him with great ceremony when he is a month old; at 15 he is considered grown up, assumes the responsibility of a man and takes a new name. Entering upon public duties he takes another name, which is changed with every step in life; if his superior officer haa the same name he happens to have at that time he must change it again; he must also change it when he marries, and when he dies it is changed for the last time and "inscribed upon his tomb. Home Notes.

Tom Reed's Insinuation. Once when Thomas B. Reed was with the late Senator Wolcott of Colorado and Joseph Choate, Mr. Choate, when asked to take a drik, said that

he never drank, never smoked to excess, and never gambled In his life. Wolcott, who was a sinner in every one

of these lines, looked pathetically at Reed and said: "I wish I could say

that." "Say it." said Reed; "Choate

did."

The Yeggman. A "yegg" or "yeggman" might be

defined as a cross between a tramp

and a burglar. "Yeggmen" travel about the country always by stealing or begging rides on freight trains, and their operations are generally con

fined to banks or postoffices in the smaller towns.

All Explosive. "There's a paint shop around thfe corn on First avenue that's just as full .s can be of all sort3 of explosives," said the east side woman. "Naphtha, kerosene, turpentine, and do you know what else they've got there? A croBS-eyed girl clerk. It's tempting Providence." New York Press.

Small Enough. The visitor was trying to be genial, and asked the small maiden at hia side: "Shall I peel your pear for you, little one?" But the child replied: "No, fank you; it's quite small enough now." ;

Mrs. I'eaubien is a charter member of the club so she was capable of handling this subject in a pleasing way, taking the club from its inception through Its various phases.

"To My Old Hat" which dealt with the various changes in woman's headgear, was indeed a clever toast, which was given by Mrs. Thomas Boyle. Mrs. F. M.
