Everybody who saw the condition of Miller, was frightened, fearing he would bleed to death before help could reach him. The train was not due to stop until South Chicago was reached, but a special stop was made at Pine, where some one telephoned to Indiana Harbor for an ambu lance to be in waiting at In(diana Har bor. Here another special stop was made and the Injured man as'slsted to Maxwell's ambulance, which had responded to the call. Dr. Greenwald Wa?'also on hand to attend to Miller's injuries, and great relief was experienced by everybody present when it was found that the jugular vein had not been severed, but that the chief injury consisted in the partial division of the sterio cleido mastoid. The depth of the cut rendered it serious, but af ter it had been sewed up and otherwise treated to abate the loss of blood. Miller was pronounced out of danger from the wound. WAS NEARLY CRAZY. In the mean time, Seroczynskl was near crazy with remorse over the un toward accident, and to add to his trouble he was arrested whsn the Jxlo reached Indiana Harbor. He was released however when the police had been assured by all parties to the affair, that the scuffle had been a good netured one and that the injury to Miller was an accident, for which Seroczynskl was in no way to blame. However, the trip to Reno was brok en up, and there are two choice ncKets to the event which will go a begging for lack of time to even give them away. Messrs. Miller ana iving win not forego their trip altogether but will go west for a month as soon as Mr. Miller's condition will permit. After Mr. Miller's injuries had been dressed the entire party was taken to the Lake Shore depot in Dr. Greenwald's automobile, where they took the 7:05 train for Chicago. HUSTLING 10 GE1 II The Lake superior court house is a scene of Intense activity. The work of remodeling the structure has gone beyond the stone laying stage and all of the masonry is now completed. Most of the partitions are now in and some of the plastering has been done. The electricians are at work putting in the wiring and the conduits and only the plumbers' strike is delaying the building. , There are in the neighborhood of 25 workingmen employed on the building in various departments of activity. The work of cleaning the old stone with the sand blast machine is nearly com pleted. This alone cost the contrac tors $1,500. The roof will soon be put on and then all that will remain to be done will be to put on the wood finish, lay the floors and put the hard plaster on the walls. The work of refurnishing the court house will then be taken up. At present the court house looks more like a cave than anything else, but all of this will soon be changed. OK! YOU cue FANS. Every loyal Cub fan who has signed up or who expects to sign, for the auto trip to Chicago on July 12th. to see the Cubs ar.d New Yorks play ball, is expected to attend the meeting which will be held in Kussmaul's cigar store this evening at S o'clock.

' wired the Palace of Sweets." Findling having answered both questions in the affirmative, said that Vaughn
struck him In the face and about the body repeatedly. The assault happened in front of the Lion 6tore at the corner , of Rlrnbach avenue and Hohman street. There were other witnesses for the plaintiff, but none of them could identify Vaughn as being the man who slugged Findling. The defense, on the other hand, tried to show that Vaughn was not near Findling at the time he was slugged. Vaughn himself denied having attacked Findling, while two "other electricians said that they and Vaughn were on the other side of the street and ran over to him to see the excitement, and that they saw the man who attacked Findling run away. They said that they did not know the man who attacked Findling.

got the mysterious mechanism all
the more involved. Thoroughly disgusted the steel city executive had to have the auto hauled back to Gary. The return was not triumphal procession and when Broadway was reached the mayor offered the big touring car to any man having about $250 in his pocket. As none of the bystanders had more than $2.50 the deal was not made and so today his honor decided to keep the machine and give it another trial before he sells it to a Junk dealer. Last of Season. The V. M. I. baseball team of Chicago will be one of the last to appear on the local diamond this year, and henceforth games will be played with the teams of the surrounding towns.

Street Commissioner Patrick C. Finerty has laid Off the majority of the street employes. Only a few man and one of the foremen are working.
