RETIRES AFTER
FORTY YEARS (Special to Thb Times.) Whiting:, Ind., Jan." 4. John Wylie
of .New York avenue, who for forty years has been employed by the Standard Oil company, has withdrawn from(
tctlve duty with the advent of the new - 1 . . .
year. ' ,
Mr. "Wylie,' who Is 70 years of age.
has been - working: for the Standard for forty years, since it was known as the Rockefeller, Andrews &. Flagler
Oil company, and for over thirty years
has been employed as a stillman, , a.
position which is rarely held by a man of Mr. Wylle's age. He' has been one
of the company's most trusted employes and was entitled to a pension ten years ago. It Is the policy of the
Standard Oil company to pay their em
ployes a pension to the extent of 50
per cent of their regular salary-aft er twenty-five years of service and after being 60 years of age or over.
Mr. Wylie has no been placed on
the pension list, getting a suitable sum each month to enable he and his wife to live comfortably the remainder of
their days.
The men at the plant regretted to see
one who was such a fixture leaving, so
to express their regret at losing him a
collection was taken up with which a
beautiful gold watch was purchased.
Just before leaving the grounds Mr.
Wylie was cal'-ed into the office of re
finery superintendent John Moore,
where a good crowd of workmen had
gathered. Mr. Wylie was placed in the
center, of the circle and In a rather
lengthy "and well-prepared address the
gift was presented by Mr. Moore.
The happiness of the recipient was
unbounded, and with tears streaming
down his face he thanked all who had
contributed.
Mr. and .Mrs. Wylie will continue to
reside in Whiting, they having lived
here for the past twenty years.
The report of Dr. I. Millstone retiring health secretary and the newly elected health president for the city of Gary
reveals some very interesting vital
statistics. During the year 1910 when the popu
lation numbered 16,802 deaths totaled
333 or an average of 20 to every thou and of the population. This is an ab
normally high rate and practically 25
pet cent higher than In Chicago and other large cities. However, the year 1911 shows that Gary with other American cities slashed down Its death rate. Basing the population at 20,000 the mortality rate was about 15.6 per thousand of population. This compares favorably with other cities. Ranks With Others Now. A decrease In the death rate in seven of the eight cities of the United State having a population above 500,000 and a generally low death rate throughout the United States are shown In, the preliminary mortality figures for 1911, given out by the census bureau. The area from which complete mortality returns are received nowco vers twenty-two states and forty-flve cities outside these states, embracing a total population of 57,327,697. The 1911 death rate was 14.4 a thousand of population, compared with 15 a thousand in 1910. In Boston the rate increased from 17.2 to 18.5. Of the cities in the half million class, Cleveland's rate of 13.5 is the lowest. Pittsburg shows the greatest
decrease in the death rate, its propor
tion of deaths a thousand of population being 14.7 in 1911, as compared with XJ.Q in 1910. Figures for the other cities for 1911 were:. New York,' 15. S; Chicago, 14.3; Philadelphia. 16,3; St. Louis, 15.5; Baltimore, 184. .
tion, which will be held Jan. 31. On
account of Laporte county being taken out of the tenth district the present district chairman, Andrew J. Hickey of
Laporte, does not reside in the district and a new chairman will have to be named. Under the new apportionment Tippecanoe county is entitled to twenty-seven votes out of a total of 121 at the district convention. Lake county has thirty-nine; Porter, twelve; White, twelve; Warren, eight; Newton, seven; Jasper, eight, and Benton, eight. It takes sixty-one votes to make a majority. The northern counties will no
longer have a majority of the votes of
the district and Tippecanoe county will be a more important factor in district affairs. , LAPORTE GETS

CHEERFULL OUTLOOK FOR STEEL IROFI TRADE
Reports from the Pittsburg district
indicate that the increased activity at bias furnaces and seel plants due to the business stimulated ' by bargain prices in December is centered there. According to the Iron Age, . the Carnegie Steel Company is conspicuous
In the movement. Two Edgar Thomson furnaces which have been banked
for some time again are in blast and
these with the resumption of one New Castle and the Ohio stacks at Youngs-
town made an addition of five to the
company's active list. The starting of
three or four additional furnaces is under consideration. The Iron Trade Review finds that "
cheerful sentiment prevails in the If on J and steel trade at the opening of iho' new year. While naturally thee has.
been some decrease in buying during L.
