A liEW WAY OF EVICTING TEHMTS

There ate ,ways and ways of getting rid of undesirable tenants, but It remained for an Indiana Harbor landlady to discover , an entirely new method, which would seem to be very effective if not an entirely safe one. The modus operandi is this. Take a pair of trousers and other cast oft clothing-, and stuff them into the top of the chimney, and smoke 'era out. The inventors Of this scheme are Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Sokowski of SS32 Cedar street and they are now languishing in . durance vile, charged with attempted murder and attempted arson. . Mr. Sokowskt fainted after be

ing arrested and brought to the East Chicago police- station. The victims of the unusual method of eviction were Steve Scheptows-Ui and wife and two children who lived in the lower flat in the Sokovvski house. They were somewhat in arrears with their rent and when approached with the request that they 'mush along;" declined to do so.. Last evening at 7 o'clock their rooms began to fill 1th smoke. Poheptowski searched the premises for evidences .of a blaze, but failed ts discover any imd rushed to the police station. Servant Barker and members of the fire department went to the house and found Mrs. Saheptowski holding her two children I J her arms, both i of them almost' unconscious from' the smoke.

Mrs. Sokowski replied that they would have fit cleaned as soon as the family downstairs moved out. The firement went to the roof and found a pair of trousers neatly fitted into the opening at the top of the chimney They pulled this out and heard other garments drop with a du.ll and sickening thud down the opening. Warrants were thereupon sworn out for the Sokowskis, husband and wife and they were taken to the police .station. Th Scheptowcki children, who were aged 11 months and three years. were carried out to the fresh air and revived, and are pronounced out of danger.

either place. He was a member of the

old home, a few years ago, and made a

good record. He is a rich man.

That Albert J. Beveridge is not tak

ing any hand in politics is understood from the -reading of his answers to some questions that were asked him by a newspaper man yesterday. It had

been reported from New York that while he was there he met Governor Johnson, of California, a progressive

Republican, .an dOrmsby McHarg, who says he is boosting the Roosevelt boom.

It was also reported that Beveridge

had had a conference with Roosevelt

But he said th only one of the three

that he saw- while in New Tork was

Governor Johnson.

Beveridge went to Philadelphia to consult with his publishers and to at

tend the banquet of the Periodical Pub

Ushers Association, at which Woodrow

Wilson and Senator Lafollette werj speakers. He also went to New York

and got proofs of an article which he

has written for a magazine, and he says he corrected the proofs on the

train coming home.

"Dt you see Governor Johnson?"

Beveridge was askea. "For a few minutes," he answered, "And I talked with him to get his ex

perience with the, recall of judges in

California, about which I am preparing to write an article. I did not even know he was in New York until I met him In the hotel." "Did you see McHrgT

"No, I did not. I have not seen Mc- ; Harg for three years or more. I scarcely know him." - "Did you see Roosevelt?" , "What if I had seen him? Can't I sea whom I please? Can't I speak to people any more? The fact is that I did not see Col. Roosevelt. I have seen him once since my return from Europe, and that time I called to pay my respects." Beveridge was angered by the questions. It was evident that he did not want to discuss politics and that he was' not as deeply interested in the subject as he had been In the past. Ills answers were taken here' to mean that he is not taking any part in politics, but that he is devoting his time to

literary work exclusively. ' It Is said that four Roosevelt clubs are to be started In Indianapolis within the next few days, and that the movement has been well financed. It is said, too, that the leaders of these clubs will be a lot of politicians here who are always out for the materia s.lde Of politics.
