Hon. J. A. Brennan Makes Some Telling Arguments in Addresses Last Saturday Night Before Gary Republicans. The republicans held two rousing meetings Saturday night in the south side in Gary in spite of the cold and rainy weather. The Greeks and Macedonians met at the hall at Eleventh and Adams street and the Hungarians met at 1327 Washington street. At botii meetings the hall was packed to the doors. Of the speakers the headlines were John A. Brennan. J. J. Kelley and Harry Call. Erennan makes a stronger speech every time he talks and the one Saturday night was the best that he has made during the present campaign. Mr. Brennan reiterated his policies in a forceful manner. Increase Workers Wage. "By giving a helping hand to all of the industries of Gary it will serve to increase the wages of the workingmen," said Mr. Erennan. "I am looking out for the interests of the workingman. A mayor should treat everyone alike, he should be a public servant and not be owned by anyone. All Mr. Knotts offers to the people of Gary is beer. I believe in well conducted saloons in this city, but I believe the patrons should go into the front doors like men instead of slinking in the rear. We ought to have saloons where, if a man lays a $10 bill on the bar he will be able to get out of the placi without having his brains beat out with a club. Give Them Good School. "It 1s my purpose to give the people of Gary good schools. I will assist the foreigners in every way possible to make them good American citizens. If I am mayor of Gary I will be mayor of all Gary. There will le no north or no south. I believe that the south side is entitled to every consideration. Harry Call then addressed the meeting and related the fact that capital ists refuse to lend money in Gary be cause of the vicious conditions in the city and because the administration has not been put cn business basis. Mr. Call also said that although the stor is of Gary in the outside newspapers might have been somewhat exaggerated, that there was never a great deal of smoke without some fire and that the proper thing to do was to clean up the city and then the reports could be nothing else but favorable. "Put Tlw ni Out of Brndoras.'' J. J. Kelley made an eloquent ad dress. One of the points which captivated the crowd was the attempt by Mr. Kelley to determine where th town board came from that has been serving the city for the past few years. "'They were here when you and I came here," said Kelley, "and they are her yet. Who elected them, when did they take office, who are they where did they come from? The only logical conclusion tnat we can come to is that they have inherited by the cfty, and if that be the case I approve of an immediate inheritance tax that will be heavy enough to put them out of business." Others speakers of the evening -were P. J. Tomasoczy, John Praeshak, Dominick Szymanskl, E. C. Simpson, A. Naylor, William MacNelll and Attorney Starr. NEGRO OF 1RDER Charles Sm!th, the negro who was charged with the murder of Joseph Shaw because of a quarrel over an alleged stolen horse, was acquitted at Valparaiso last Friday when the Jury, which had been out for several hours. brought in a verdict of not guilty. The jury was satlsf.'d that the negro had killed Shaw in self-defense. Shaw's dying deposition was introduced In evidence in which he charged Smith with having made the fatal assault upon him. Smith, however, stated that while they were driving through the marsh Shaw said to him that he (Smith) had better say his prayers, at the same time com ing for h'.m with a knife. lie showed marks on his face of having been badly cut up. The case was on trial for about four days, and recalls the sensation that was created whoa Shaw, in a dying condition, dragged himself to a farm house and asked for a drink of water. lie was removed to the Christian hos pital at Valparaiso, where he died sub sequently. 5 To Meet in Theater. The Majestic theater will be the cen. trl meeting point for the republicans of Gary next Friday evening, this playhouse having been leased for the occasion. Preparations are, being made to entertain a big crowd. A big parade, headed by a band, will be one of the evening's features.

Police Declare That He Carries no Star, But He Persists in Trying to Make Arrests and Bullets Fly as a Result. Another small sized riot occurred Sunday night near the company houses in the vicinity of Rhode Island street and an ambulance call was sent in with the report that three men had been killed. It developed, however, that no one had been killed or even injured. Xo arrests were made in the case. As usual the trouble In this section of the city was precipitated by Mike Petrovic and his associate Pete Basvich. These men who have caused most of the trouble that has occurred in this district attempted to, arrest aj man for drunkenness and the man resisted arrest. Although Chief Martin has declared that Petrovic does not carry a star he attempted to make the arrest just the same, but the man broke away from him and drawing his gun emptied the weapon at his aggressors. The shots caused great excitement in this sec tion of the city and the report was spread broadcast that someone had been shot. Hud a arrow Escape. One bullet, in fact, lodged in a room of a boarding house six inches above the head of one of the boarders. Sev eral other spectators came near being shot as they rushed to the scene of the conflict. Petrocis and Basvich re treated in haste when the shots were fired. The bullying tactics of these two men nave caused sucn a rear oi mem by the foreigners in this locality that many of them are said to be leaving. This is probably why this man has never been arrested for all the scrapes that he has been in and is probably what Knotts hired him for. If this trouble-maker continues the way he has in the past, however, it is an assured thing that he will get what is coming to him.

The Interment took plac in Oak Hill cemetery, I'ndertake Stewart of Hammond being in charge Sarcasm Probably Wasted. One of the wittiest of Parisians, in a friend's box at the opera, was listening to "Thais," or rather trying to do so, for his hostess talked incessantly and deadened the music with her shrill voice. At the end of the opera she invited him to the next subscribers' night. "With pleasure," replied he; "I have never heard you in 'Faust.' !'S The Right Use of Books. To use books rightly is to go to them for help; to appeal to them when our own knowledge and power fall; to be led by them into wider sight and purer conception than our own, and to receive from them the united sentence of the Judges and councils of all time, against our solitary and unstable opinions Huskin.

id i mic ROLE OF PRIMARIES RAFFLER TOMORROW

East Chicago. Ind., Oct. 25. The East Chicago republican politicians went down to Andy Shrusvowski's place, One Hundred and Forty-ninth street and Magoun ave. to hold a meeting yes terday. Arrived there they found a fair in progress under the auspices of the Independent Catholic church, which they invaded, taking complete possession oi the place for the time being, and spending oodles of loose change there, much to the delight of the priest in charge, and the crowd of parishioners who were present. C. L. Kirk constituted himself chief raffler for the occasion, raffling off among other things a Dig bunch or chickens, which had been donated to the fair by one of the liberal patrons thereof. The prices these chickens brought would put the Auditorium An nex menu prices to shame, and the best thing about the entire, transaction was that after the lot had been dlsposd of to the various members of the party of politicians, the winners of the prizes turned right around and donated them back to the priest of the parish, making a great hit both with the reverend father and members of his congregation. Other Events of the Past Few Days. This was only one of the incidents of the day's program by the republican workers in East Chicago and Indiana Harbor. There was a fine Schlieker meeting at the Harbor Saturday night at Tony Mikalsca's place, 2112 One Hundred and Thirty-seventh street, where the ut most enthusiasm prevailed among the large crowd of citizens there assembled. Judge T. M. C. Hembroff, Walter Spen cer, George Hudacko, P. McClosky and others spoke in English, while Mat Herog addressed the gathering in Polish. There was a workers" meeting at the republican headquarters Saturday night at the East Chicago headquarters, in the Emery building, and yesterday afternoon, in addition to the meeting at Andy Shrusvowski's, there was another at Paul Shadls' place, One Hundred and. Forty-ninth street and Northcote avenue. Tonight there will be a meeting at Pete Doza's, One Hundred and Fortythird street, near Railroad avenue, and another on the south side, the exact place for this latter gathering, not having yet been selected. It is the intention to hold at least three republican meetings each night In Indiana Harbor and East Chicago, during this week and until the windup of the campaign, next Monday night. The best orators the local branch of the party affords will be sent out in pairs to these meetings, one English speaker, traveling always in company with a speaker who can talk in one of the foreign tongues, so prevalent among the workmen in certain localities of the Twin Cities. Judge T. M. C. Hembroff will travel in company with George Hudacko, C. M. Fowler and P. McClosky will go together and W. B. Van Home and Andy Matasowski will be another pair of orators. St. Elmo's Fire. St. Elmo's fire is a neculiar condi tion of low electric Intensity in the atmosphere, such as often occurs in fair weather, when by supposed induction and insulation, pointed objects projecting high above surrounding objects become surcharged with the electric fluid, and a brush discharge takes place, without audible noise, but with a feeble luminous glow. It has been observed on spires, on the masts and spars of ships.

Gary Republican City Cen tral Committee Announces Date for Selection of Councilmen Candidates Qualify. All doubt as to the election 'being held on Xo. 2 In Gary has been dis pelted, owing to the special meeting of the town board Saturday afternoon at which the resolution calling for the election was passed and the city di vided into wards. There will be five wards In Gary and consesuently two aldermen-at-large These w-ards are as follows: 1. East of Broadway, north of the Wabash tracks. 2. West of Broadway, north of the Wabash tracks. 3. West of Broadway, between the Wabash tracks and N'inetenth street. 4. All south of the Wabash, east of Broadway. 5. West of Broadway, south of Nine teenth street. The meeting of the town board Saturday afternoon came as a complete surprise to the public, which has been kept in the dark as to their intentions when they called the special meeting. Both Mr. Sears and Mr. Caldwell had been out of the city, but returned suddenly and the meeting was called. As to the division of the wards the arrangement seems to be satisfactory to all concerned, with the exception of the size of the second ward. The second is west of Broadway and north of the W'abash tracks. There Is probab ly as great a poulation in this section as in any two of the other wards. The territory extends over to Clark Station, where there axe at least two hundred votes. h It also includes the Kirk settlement, where there are located hundreds ot people. There was also some surprise about the fourth ward being extended beyond the Pennsylvania. This, however, seems justified because of the fact that south of the Wabash tracks the territory east of Broadway is suite sparsely settled. SUPRESS FAKE REPORTS Gary Committee .busy in Effort to Suppress Wrong News. Attorney Clyde Hunter and Ingwald Moe, two members of the Gary committee of five, who were appointed at a meeting last Friday evening to confer with President Buffington and Vice President Thorp of the Indiana Steel company In Chicago regarding exaggerated news reports sent to the Chicago papers from Gary, have a report of their visit. They say that they have received the assurance of these officials that they had already taken this mat ter up with the Chicago papers and that they would further exert them selves in an attempt to keep these re ports within the bounds of veracity. Messrs. H. H. Harries, H. Highland, E. M. White and Ingwald Moe will hold another conference with the Chicago officials on this matter today.

On the eve of the primaries, one of the councilmanic contestants who was supposed to have been one of the strongest contestants in the race withdrew from the contest. This man was Mike Binzen in the First ward, who declared last night that the reason for his withdrawal was that there was a possibility that his business might take him out of the city after the election. The withdrawal of Mike Binzen leaves but two men in that ward. 5

Mitchell Duchich and Emerson Bowser. Both men are regarded as strong men in the section of the city and they would unquestionably give the other candidates a hard race. There is no ward In the city in which the republicans do not have a candidate for councilman. In the Second ward Harry Hall and R. E. Rowley are earnestly fighting for the honor3 and the race is thought to be very close. It would be an Impossibility to even guess the winner at the present time. The Fifth ward lias for its candidate William Wolff, secretary of the carpenters' union. In the Third John Bennett is the candidate, and . In the Fourth there is A. Naylor and Anthony Baukus, the contractor. The fight should be a warm one and several more candidates are expected to announce themselves today. Advice for Young Ladles.
