WILL HOLD

ft REGULAR MEETING

Gary Town Board Will Postpone Trip to Canada Until After the Session in Which Bids Will Be Received. The Gary town board members yesterday changed their minds. They decided that they would have to hold their regular meeting Tuesday afternoon, not because the petition for an election on the city or town question demanded action, but because the bids for the oaving: of the alley between Washington street and Broadway were to be received and had to be opened on the date that they are received. It is highly Improbable that the board will take any action on the petition asking for a town election to be held at this next meeting. They were informed yesterday by Town Attorney Ii. Li. Bomberger that there was no limited time in which they were compelled to act in this matter. They believe, therefore, that it will not be neccessary to trouble themselves about this little matter before they return from their pleasure jaunt to Canada. 'o ed for Delay. Trustee M. A. Caldwell intimated yesterday that the board was in no hurry to hold the election in any event. He said that there was no need of having too long a campaign ten days would be enough and that it would probably be so hot that that would be long enough anyway. In speaking of the campaign, there is scarcely a politician in Gary but who thinks that the town should be made a city at least a month before election day. Nov. 2. If a month is too long in which to campaign, it is up to the candidates to make that time shorter, according to the interested persons. However, it now seems to be up to the 1,151 signers of the petition to fold their arms and await the pleasure of the town board. JULIA SENT IMSTITUTIO (Special to The Times.) Kast Chicago. Aug. 21. Julia Landis the daughter of John Landis, who lives in Homer Lee avenue, between One Hundred and Forty-eighth and One Hundred and Forty-ninth streets, was vesterdav ordered sent to the girls reformatory at Indianapolis by the ju venile court at Crown Point. The girl will be remembered in this region for the many escapades in which she was engaged and to which she confessed before the police of this city Her crimes include the following, to all of which she has made confession: On Feb. 24 she stole twenty magazines from the office of Dr. George liicknell March 2 she stole a coat belonging to S. K. McCulIough in which were a check book, a reciept book, building contract and other papers of value to the owner. March 4 she robbed Wil liam Riley's tiat. stealing among other things a small saving bank containing between five and six dollars, and spent the money. March 10 she again robbed the Riley flat, purloining two bracelets valued at $10. On March 11 she stole some more magazines from Dr. Bicknells office. A few days later she entered Clinton's hardware store and stole a watch. These are only a few of the crimes in which, it is alleged, Julia Imdis lias participated. Her parents are respectable people and she Is their only child. How she came by her criminal tendencies is a mystery to them and to all their friends, and they are heart-broken over their daughter's disgrace.

(Special to The Time?,) AVhiting. Ind., Aug. 21. The first automobile accident of the season to be recorded in Yhiting, took place last evening about 6 o'clock, when Edwin H. Farr, editor of the Whiting Call, ran into Martin Muzin of New York avenue. Mr. Farr was coming from his office on One Hundred and Ninetenth street, and was going to his home in Davidson place. Whn lie went to turn the corner at New York avenue, down Fred street. Muzin was about to crass the street. When he saw the approaching machine, h became excited, and lost his head. He started across the street, and then instead of proceeding, he turned to run back. Farr, seeing the danger, attempted to avoid hitting the man, but he nevertheless went over his foot and ran into the cement sidewalk. A crowd quickly gathered and Muzin was picked up and taken to the office of Dr. K. W. Doolittle. Here it was found that his foot had been badly sprained. After having it dressed he returned to his home. The automobile was badly damaged by coming in contact with the sidewalk, with the force it did. and the breakdown kept the owner from entering the firemen's parade today, which he has been anticipating entering for several weeks. BRIDE WILL HAVE RUDE AWAKENING (Continued from Page 1.) rant was issued for the arrest of Otizik. and the police of Illinois and 'Wisconsin cities were ordered to arrest the groom of three days. Although Guzik had written the tollman family saying that he and his bride would spend their honeymoon in Rochester, X. Y.. the letter was received yesterday from the girl in Milwaukee. Max Guzik. a cigar dealer at 3G2 Ogden avenue, father of the alleged bigamist, last night admitted that his son had married the daughter of a South Chicago merchant, and that he did not know of his having secured a divorce. He later denied any knowledge of his son's affairs and declared that he would do nothing to aid him in case of his arrest. The wealthy Ullman family, which had forgiven Guzik for having spirited the girl from home anil was ready to give them both a home, bitterly denounced Guzik last night. "This is terrible," said the hrother. "We will spend our last dollar to run this man down and see that be receives justice. Even after we found 1 that he had masqueraded under an as-

I GIRL E Pauline Cheroinski of Indiana Harbor Keeps the Police Busy. FATHER DESERTS HIS FAMILY Child Is Found In Hammond After Having Visited Other Towns. (Special to The Times. 1 Indiana Harbor, Ind.. Aug. 21. rauline Cherovinski, nine years of age and figuring in nearly as many runaways as the champion boy runaway of Chicago, whose doings have been recently exploited in the Chicago press, has dun away again. Yesterday she appeared in Hammond, where she was picked up by the Hammond police after being found wandering about the streets. She was unable to give a satisfactory reason for her presence in Hammond and told the police that she live din Indiana Harbor. The station here wa called up and Pauline at once identified, the police being thoroughly acquainted with the girl's proclivities, having brought her back time and again from places where she was found wandering. Thi stime it was Officer Rundquist who was sent to bring Pauline home. Father Kler Children. The child lives with her father. John Cherovinski, at 139th and Beach street, when she is not following up her wanderlust proclivities. She is one of a family of several children who have been sadly neglected by their father. Cherovinski is either separated from his wife or a widower, lot does not seem clear which. It is declared to have caused his children to go out begging and stealing while he spent his own time in idleness. Bruno, a son, is now in the reformatory at Jeffersonville, where he was sent some time ago by the Juvenile court at Crown Point for being mixed up with a gang of young thieves who were stealing grain from cars. Pauline a year ago last winter was found one morning in freezing weather, in some bushes near the I,ake Shore hotel, where she had slept all night after having spent, a day in begging. On one of her wandering expeditions she was picked up in Gary, on another in South Chicago, two weeks ago she was found in West Hammond and yesterday in Hammond. The child does not appear to be quite right mentally, and it is thought this may be the result of the neglect which she has suffered. Yesterday while in the East Chicago police station awaiting the disposition of her case, she sat In a deep chair playing with an immense grasshopper which she had captured, and seemed as totally indifferent to what was to be done with her as she would have been had the case been tha of some one else. The father was seen by the police, and after his promise had been secured to take better care of the child in the future, Pauline was returned to his custody. GARY GOAL DEALERS' LAUDABLE PROJECT Refuse to Sell Coal to Those j Who Decline to j Pay for ItGary coal dealers have banded and formed an organization whose chief object will be to put the kibosh on the efforts of all people in Gary who have been "burning up" the product and forgetting to pay for it. In other words, it will be impossible for all "dead beats" to lay in a supply of coal unless they produce the ready cash. The meeting was held in the offices of the Dalton Coal company, 6?.0 F.roadway, and representatives of the following companies were present: Gary Coal company. Independent Coal and Supply compa n y. Pennsylvania Coal company. Dalton Coal company. Tolleston Lumber & Coal company. Calumet Lumber & Coal company. It is the Intention of the coal dealers to form a protective association, the purpose of which will be to guard their Interests against the unscrupulous citizens who fail to pay their coal bills. It is claimed that the various companies have lost thousands of dollars altogether In supplying coal to numerous Gary people, they later refusing to pay for It. One certain Gary man now owes coal bills to three local companies in amounts ranging from $100 to $150. Another meeting will be held next week and steps will be taken to perfect the organization. A committee was appointed to draft a constiution and by-laws which will be discussed at the next meeting. Permanent officers will also be elected. It will be the duty of the secretary to get the rating of every citizen of Gary, and those who have already "stung" the companies will be placed on the black list. When a new customer attempts to purchase coal, if he is not known and his credit is not good, he will be refused unless he pays the cash. The association in this way expects to overcome a great amount of their losses in this way. Must Do It. "VChen a man takes his wife to the theater he thinks it's up to him to go out between the acts and telephone home to learn if the house is still ther.
