The next steps may be Hammond or Whiting. It is hard to tell where the lightning will strike next. It is an BO wonderful, so beyond the wildat t.ttnn- of h most enthnsi. .v k astic boosters, that the prospects of having 1,000.000 people in Lake ty in 1925 do not seem so proposterous. WAS HE RIGHT? ' It is quite possible to go into a courtroom with all its stern and often sordid tales of crime and wrong-doing to listen to stories that wrench the heart-strings. An eastern judge re cently granted a divorce to the hus band but gave the little home and young child to the erring wife. He said: "A mother lo-e survives the deepest degradation of which the female nature Is capable, and It Is capable of a lower state than man's nature. When a woman comes into my. court claiming the custody of " her baby I always grant It. She may be a bad woman and yet a good mother at least the best, if not the only, mother the child can have. ,In this way I have at times saved both mother and child. For the sake of the child the mother will at least strive- to appear virtuous. It is not a rare event for a father and son to be engaged knowingly to each other in crime; It is never the case with mother and daughter." There are many who will agree with that judge, for the . mother I where all else Is equal, having gone through the supreme agony of motherhood for that child is certainly en - titled to it when tragic domestic re - ,k,i m.,it.i .t.. the home ties any longer. It is very refreshing to find a Judge who will sten out of the beaten Dath once inl awhile who can be a judge of the heart once in a while rathen than of the head all ot the time. AMUSEMENTS AND DRINK. Ten years ago if the suggestion had been made that the popularizing

That ""was the only amusement ho ling knew". Today the situation It changed. The-same man take bis wife and children, goes to a five cent theatre, spends 15 "or 20 cents, makes 1i1h pleasure a liberal education or takes in a first class vaudeville performance at 10 or 20 cents -a seitt and. roe home with a clear conscience, a refreshed mind ,a happy wife and a full wallet.

The five cent theatre Is to the amuaemant world what the one cent paper has been to the educational ; world. Its success lies in the act that makes an appeal 10 ine wnoie peo-1 nig 0 o comrnunit v.

The saloon question has been one of the substituting somethings for the poor man's club. Cheap theatres solve the "problem. STEEL DEMAND INCREASES.

What pleasure do you have out of your neighbors? . There Is perhaps no better criterion of a man's contentment than his rela-coun-Jtlons with his near neighbors. Not every man is ho situated tnat ne can find agreeable companions next floor, but there are not many communities in the averago town where one can. not find neighbors worth while It is a wist thing to make friend ships among each people. Aside from the very evident fact that you are likely to see them often in some cases many times a day there is a charm about the fact of "being rAiB-bhrr,,iiha1f fan acnrcplv b iliiinlf cated in any other sort or kind of friendship. "I lived neighbor to him

or 20 years'! has a touch of sentiment in it that is beyond ordinary estimate. "He was my friend, faithful and just to me," is a tribute of the best and noblest sort. Happy is the man who enjoys his neighbors, at home and in -business. The stern, unbending type of employer, socially aloof from his his men, is some times able to get satisfactory or even unusually good results from their work, but he misses, something big that only the heart can measure. To be pitied is the recluse. tVlVIVd -i.c T Ira "m.nttr I political figures this morning as a resuit of the primaries last Saturday 1 night one cannot fail to be Impressed 1 with the fact that, there are a lot of Mont fartrlrta-M arrived . lna " ""BM "c oclYpns tne PeoP16 D5" putting Hindrances ,n tne way of dJ-K homes for the location of the Baldwin Locomotive I works ought to go out and have his brains sandpapered.

Girl Who Fled Nightmare of Examination

MISS LULU JOHANSSEN

IS : v. 1

One day's experience "out in the world" was sufficient to convince Lulu Johansen, 17-year-old daughter of August C. A. Johanssen of Ravinia, that, she preferred schoolbooks to work in Chicago. The girl, who disappeared from her home Wednesday afternoon, returned last evening after searching in vain for a job in Chicago. Overwork in an effort to maintain her position at the head of her classes in the Highland Park High School had ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗ before committing suicide by drinking cyanide, W. H. McVey of Terre Haute was buried in the county lot in High land Lawn cemetery. Finding of the poison and container was taken by the coroner as proof of double murder and suicide. ROBS OFFICE IN DAYLIGHT. The Big Four ticket Office at Clarkshill near Lafayette was broken into late Friday afternoon and the thief secured $25 In silver. Agent Cooley was loading baggage on a train when the robbery occurred. The robber overlooked in his hurry a large amount of paper money in the drawer. This is the tenth of a series of robberies of railroad stations in that vicinity during the last few months. GOLD TEETH FORM CLEW . Two brothers,, Charles and Albert Ferguson, of Anderson, were arrested last night on a charge of larceny. They were accused of stealing gas fixtures from vacant houses. A neighbor who observed two men taking gas fixtures from an empty cottage noticed that one of the men had two gold teeth and he was so described to the police. With gold teeth as the only clew the police arrested Charles Ferguson, who displayed two gold teeth. He had been arrested before on charges of larceny. LAWRENCE FANCIERS READY. The anual exhibit of the Lawrence County Poultry Association will be held in Wilson's Hall at Bedford, beginning Jan. 31 and continuing for four days. Entries have already been received, not only from that county, but from Washington, Elnora, Bloomlngton, Orleans and other cities of adjoining counties, and the prospects are for one of the largest exhibits ever held in southern Indiana. W, A. Wilson is president of the association, and O. T. Stalker secretary. B. H McCracken will be the Jurge [Judge] RIDES 1,000 MILES FOR $100. Sheriff Hume, of Garfield county, Oklahoma, rode 1,600 miles to Kendalville to collect a debt of $100. He arrived Tuesday and immediately went to collect the money from Freeman Myers, who borrowed it while residing in Enid, Oklahoma. The settlement was made and the sheriff started for home at once. MUST HANG FOR MURDER. There is no likelihood of interference by Gov. Marshall with the sentence of death in the case of George Davis, colored, who will be hanged in the state prison at Michigan City on the night of Feb. 2. Davis has given up all hope despite his previous faith that the W. C T. U. women of the state would save his neck. Davis killed a young woman at Gary by cutting off her head, committed the deed before breakfast and returning to the table with his hands smeared with blood, finished the meal before surrendering himself. His only excuse for the crime was that she was not true to him. TANK OF GLASS COLAPSES. The Standard Co-Operative Glass company of Marion, suffered a $2,000 loss to its plant when a tank containing 60 tons of molten glass collapsed. On account of the large contracts with the company for goods and the fact that the accident will throw 258 men out ot

It was while In a state of mental depression, brought on by her preparations for the midwinter examinations, that she decided to give up her studies and find employment In Chicago. Lulu had repeatedly' spoken hopefully of Her standing at school, where she was taking a post-graduate course. Several days ago she said that it would be unnecessary for ber to take - her examinations because of her daily re--I ports. f r - -: work for about a month, the loss will reach between $5,000 and 16.000. The building of a new tank will begin at bnca. , ., '- TELLS OF WHIE CAPPING. Harvey McFarland, a farmer of neaHarmony, Ind.. who was nearly beaten to death by "white caps" was the first witness of the trial of Tobe Snoddy. the first of the eight defendants acuseJ of the crime. McFarland required half an hour to relate the incidents following the removal from his home by about 20 men. eight of whom he recognised In the moonlight. He said that he had ben dragged from his doorsteps and bound to a tree where he received merciless treatment from the hands of the mob.
