Burnham Rejoices in the
Possession of Completed System.
(Special to Thh Times.)
Indiana Harbor, Nov. 6. Mr, and Mrs. Ben Roop of 3804 Fir street have
foresworn folding bndn from this time on. "Nevr again," said Mr. Roop j when speaking of the accident which happened to himself and wife early In the week, on account of one of these treacherous beds. Up to last Tuesday night Mr. Roop was enthusiastic over the particular style of folding bed that he was the possessor of. It Is an old Welsh bed and weighs about 1,500 pounds. Tuesday night
Mr. and Mrs. Roop retired about 11:30 o'clock and Mr. Roop had climbed Into
the bed and was wondering what the
election returns from the Fourth ward
would be, when Mrs. Roop attempted to get in bed. Just as she was sitting on the edge of the bed arid about to lie down, the back of the bed became
unbalanced and fell forward, striking Mrs. Roop on the shoulders and doubl
ing her up like a Jack knife.
Mr. Roop Raiaea Fallen Section. Mr. Roop by a superhuman effort
managed with feet and hands to raise the back of the bed high enough to re
lease her, but after she was out, his
wife was so badly hurt about the chest
and. shoulders that she was unable to
render him any assistance.
The couple yelled for assistance, but
there was no one but themselves in the house and their cries were not heard.
After what seemed to Mr. Roop an
age, he was able to reacti out ana get
hold of a chair which stood beside the
bed, and with this he managed to brace
the back of the bed until he could
crawl out. Mr. Roop at once went to
the assistance of his wife and car
ried her to another bed and then tele
phoned for a doctor. Dr. Orf responded
and has been In attendance since.
Mrs. Roop is "not expected to be out of the house for at least a couple of
weeks yet.
It is safe to say that there is a folding bed for sale cheap at the Roop
home.

Burnham, 111., Nov. 6. Burnham is rejoicing this morning, because of the turning on of the city water for the
first time.
The water system which has Just been
completed is part of the Chicago water system, and the construction of it was
bitterly fought out In the courts, Chi
cago objecting to supplying It, while
the Burnham people contended that un
tier the law they were compelled to
provide It. Burnham won out and the
iesult is today a fine water system
mains being laid on all the streets and
service pipes provided for every lot
Most of the houses in Burnham have
taken advantage of the new system to hae their houses connected up and today the taps are being worked overtime by the housewives and the children. Yesterday an inspector was out from the city to test the mains, the fire hydrants and the machinery, and everythingwas found to be in flrstclass condition.

On account of numerous delays In completing the building the meeting has been delayed. The object of the meeting Is to awaken the spiritual interests of Gary and to Issue a call for the purpose of assisting Gary's pastor In a practical Christian way. Many of the working class who have come to Gary are very poor and unable to have what they really need to properly clothe them.
To make them feel Gary has within its
borders men and women who are willing to assist deserving people, a call will be made for clothes, furniture, magazines, toys and everything that
people who have been more fortunate
may have cast off or may not be in need
of. It is requested that all who desire to help Gary's condition spiritually and
morally will attend and thus show
their Interest in a much neded work.
The meeting will be well represented j
by the city's most able and spiritual ministers, who will take part in this service. Rev. Walton, pastor of the Frist Presbyterian church, also Rev. Deuel of the First M. E. church. Van B.

atcive part. Mr. Mason will also bring a select brass quartet composed of members of the Moody church band.
This band did active service during the
meeting which "Gipsy" Smith held in
Chicago lately, and has continual calls for prominent service. Every one is welcome. The admission is free to all. An offering will be taken.

WHERE, OH HERE
IS DRJGHLIEKER
Goes Away for a Rest and
Fails to Leave His Address.
(Special to Thh Times.)
East Chicago, Ind.. Nov. 6. It had
been intended to have a large demon
stration this evening in celebration of the victory of Dr. A. G. Schlleker at
the polls last Tuesday. A big parade, lots of red Are, a procession of decorated automobiles and carriagts, a few bands and many skyrockets were to
have been features of the event, but
now It looks as though it might be all off. The reason therefore is that Dr. Schlieker has disappeared and no one
seems to know where he Is. At least, if any one does know, he won't tell, and the celebrators feel that a demonstration such as they Intended toi have In honor of Dr. Schlieker and the ticket would be like a presentation of Hamlet without Hamlet. Dr. Schlieker disappeared a day or two after election, and left no trace as to his intended whereabouts. It is known that he needed a rest after his strenuous campaign, and It Is understood that he has gone to some springs to get it. In order that he would not be disturbed the future mayor of East Chicago, while he did not go incognito, went incommunicado. And so the would-be celebrators are sunk in gloom, not knowing whether he will be back In time for their Jollification or not.

ALL RIGHT TO PIERCE CAT'S EARS FOR TASSELS.
Cincinnati, Nov. 6. The latest thing in cat decoration, the piercing of a cat's cars in order that it may have tassels to match its fur, has received the official sanction of the Ohio Humane society. Friday Silvia Vumance was brought before Secretary Oscar Trounstlne of. the humane eociety on complaint of a neighbor because she had had the ears of her favorite Maltese cat pierced and decorated in this manner. The cat was so pleasant and seemed so hugely pleased with its artificial adornment that Secretary Trounstine ru!d that if It is not cruel to pierce the ears of children to wear, earrings it is not cruel to pierce the ears of cats.

Indiana Harbor, Nov. 6. Today the
metropolitan newspapers throughout
the country are teeming with the
news of the generous donations made
to charity and public Institutions, by the will of the late John Stewart Ken
nedy, one of America's rich men, of
whom comparatively little Is known.
It Is not generally known in Indiana
Harbor and East Chicago until stated
In Thb Times a few days ago, that this
largest individual stockholder in the
East Chicago company, and an uncle
of Robert E. Tod, president of that
company.
An unsual circumstance of his death
ts the fact that it was due to whooping cough, which, while this year has been remarkable for the number of grown persons who have caught it, does not as a rule attack adults. Mr. Kennedy's advanced age made it im
possible for him to withstand the violence of the coughing "spells to which he was subjected and he dle4 last Sunday. His bequests to Institutions and organizations throughout the country, reached the enormous sum of $25,000,000, and his entire fortune is estimated at 175.000,000, 585,000,000 of which he bequeathed to his widow, while the residue is to be divided among relatives and friends.
GRAND LARCENY CHARGE AGAINST HER

Mrs. Jessie Bozurich, 42 years old,
was arrested yesterday afternoon on a
warrant sworn out by George Doltich
charging her with grand larceny. The latter Is boarding with Mrs. Buzurlch at Twenty-second and Washington street. He claims that $40 was taken

At a meeting of the Gary Tennis club
last nleht in the office of President
H. S. Heavenrich, the plan to establish
indoor tennis in the skating rink was abandoned because of the fact that enough light could not be secured to
make the plan feasible. It was original
ly planned to permit the members to
play the indoor game between the hours
of 5 and 8 o'clock each evening, but this
will be impractical.
The tennis club, however decided to
have a baseball team that will be com
posed of members of the club only,
which will challenge other teams in the vicinity. The club will then wait upon
Manager Grimes of the baseball depart
ment of the skating rink and make ar
rangements for the members to begin
practicing at once and put a team In the
field. This will then supercede tennis as the sport of this organization during the winter. The membership totals about thirty-five, and it is believed that one of the best teams in the region can be selected from this aggregation.

(Special to Thb Times.) Whiting, Ind., Nov. 6. From present Indications it looks as though there may be an election contest in Whiting. There was a shortage of 150 ballots in the first ward, that number of voters losing their vote in consequence.
George L. Fedorko, candidate on the
republican ticket for councilman-at-large, was defeated by Tom Duggan, democrat, by twelve votes. Fedorka
being of Polish descent has numerous friends in this ward upon whom he was
depending for support. These men not

Legal advice will be secured as to the best way to settle the affair, and the way things look at present Whiting may have another election and not have to wait four years for it either.
