Most of the present younger gen

eration will have the title of great

grand parents accorded to them at such a venerable age they will undoubtedly witess the completion of the Broadway bridge over the Little Calumet river. It is declared that it will take such a time to do the work If it Is carried on at Its present rate of speed. Yesterday some Gary people drove down to the river and the sight they

saw was enough to blow up civic pride

with a bomb. With the exception of three lone cement plasterers not a workmen was in sight. Is'o large crew

of laborers were filling in the ap

proaches to the bridge, the concrete mixers were rusty and idle, and the

song of the crow was heard, and not

the noise of the oneumatlc drill ham

mer. Hobart and Mlllrr Traffic Cense

Why the bridge work is delayed' Is

answered by a host of explanations from the contractors and while the contractors explain the conwebs have

grown over the structure. Owing to

the lack of a crossing .at this point south end realty sales' have greatly

deteriorated.

Workmen who live below the river

must still use the ferry and those in

vehicles and autos have to journey by a verv circuitous route In order to

reach the place.

Traffic between Gary and Miller has ceased almost entirely and a similar dullness is seen lit the business between Hobart and Gary. To reach Hot-art a vehicle must sro to Black Oak and from there north to Tolleston Into Gary. This adds a total of twenty extra miles for the round trip.

Miller Klfy-Three Mile Away. Although the heart of Miller Is di

rectly three and one-half miles cast or the .Gary postofflce the present dis

tance, while the bridge is down, is

fifty-three miles for a round trip made

by an automobile or a heavy wagon. A

trail through the Kleventh avenue

woods east of Broadway and leading to tiiier is only wide enough for a

one-horse carriage.

To reach Miller now the traveler goes west through Tolleston gets in sight of Hammond skirts the woods north of Griffith passes Glen Park, journeys through Hobart rides along

eral hours, and he too was unsuccessful. Dynamite was then tried. Superintendent K. D. O'Donnell of the blast furnace department at the Inland offering all the dynamite he had about the place. About fifty sticks of the explosive were set oft. The first shot

had the effect of bringing up a barrel of fish, but that was all. The succeeding shots, although In some instances five stick of dynamite were exploded at one time, were similarly futile and up to a late hour this morning, the body had not been recovered. Lew Payne and "Stubby" Staffort, experienced hands with dynamite were sent by Mr. O'llonnel to see to the firing o the explosive.

ANOTHER CALL FOR SKIN GRAFTS FOR BOY

9.951

What might have been the death of

four children by burning yesterday af

ternoon was averted when the presence

ol mind of one of the number saved the other three from the flames. The

scene was at Twenty-sixth and In

diana avenues in Gary on the property

of John Fisher. Those Who AVer Saved. The children saved from death are: Hary Frick, 2 years old. Clara Frick, 6 years old. Frank Fssmlster, 3 years old. Mary Fisher, 4 years old. " A hay stack is located on the Fisher property and the little ones were playing about it. One of them had matches and the lighted brand was applied to the imflammable material while the other vounesters were burrowed into

the hay. Smoke and flames rolled quickly out

of the burning stack and the children

began to scream. Clara, the six year old and the eldest of the four although choking with the smoke kept her head

and dragged the other three tots away

from the hay. A minute later the entire mass was enveloped In flames and by this time the shouts of the children h.-d attracted attention. When the grotn up folk arrived on the scene the youngsters were kissed several times by their scared mothers. The place where the fire occurred is some distance from a telepiione and so the department wfs not called. An odd scene was presented when the entire

neighborhood turned out with buckets, dishpans, and other utensils capable

of holding water. A number or snacks.

the homes of steel workers are grouped

nearby and it was to save these that the fire fighters turned their attention.

(Special to Thb Times.) Indiana Harbor, Aug. 5. It now develops that several square inches of skin will have to be grafted onto the back of Hayden Fox, the son of Wil

liam Fox, who was burned recently while playing back of Barker's Fair store. It was given out in the first place that the boy was not badly burnout again in a few days. Such is not however the case. If he is able to be out in four months, he will be doing well, according to his father and Dr. Robinson who is atending him. According to Mr. Fox the true facta of the story wero not made public at the time of the accident. He. dtclares that had it not been that Harold Barker, the son of Henry Barker proprietor of the Fair Store, used a quantity of gasoline, a fact unknown to Hayden

at the time, the accident would not have occurred. Without the knowlHarold went into his father's barn and placed this in a receptacle which he put under a barrel, and the pile was set on Are. The flames blazed up in an

Instant and caught young Fox s shirt.
