spite of all they did, Mikkila passed
away vednesday night, without ever
having regain consciousness.
Dr. G. H. Hopkins who acted ts
deputy coroner, held a post mortem
examination yesterday, when it was ascertained that Mr. Mikkila who is a
Flndlander, died as the result of a
hemorrhage, he bleeding internally
from the time of his injury until his death. There was a large blood elo
Inside the skull and outside of hl3
brain, which caused a constant pressure on the brain. There was also a
skull fracture over the left ear.
Mrs. Mikkila said he husband wa3
perfectly well upon returning home from work Tuesday evening, and said
and worse which threatened the spiritual and religious life of the city, but the most staggering thing I discovered was tlie Steel Company, as an open enemy of new churches, virtually making itself responsible for the moral tone of the city. "However, though all these things are so, if I iad it to do all over again. I would have come to Gary just the same. I would have gone Ahead. I would have worked as I did. I would have preached Christ and Him crucifi
ed. I would have pointed all to the Lamb of God. The only difference In my couse. if I had known as much
men as now, would have been a stronger determination than I had, to
make known the truths of God.
Too Busy For Christ. The first thing I learned after start
ing to work was that there were many
people in Gary who were members of
the Church of Christ. Some bad
sought a church home with churches that ave little or no respect for th positions of New Testament Chrisianl-
ty. They seemed to be satisfied, for twenty months of activity on the part of the Church of Christ has had no
power to bring them back again with their first love. I discovered also that
there were many members In the city who had been active in their home
city: but in Gary they absolutely turn
ed their Matter from the door by al
ways hanging up the sign 'busy.' HJnry Am Bod A Sodom."
"However, there were a faithful few
who were loyal to the truths of Christ
and to them I desire now to pay tribute of love. I ever there was a spo where Jesus needed backbone and
loyalty, Gary is the place. In the per
sons of these few, the blessed one
found faithful friends. God promised once to save Sodom if ten righteous
could be found. x I am trying to feel
that Gary could slip through to safety on a proposition like that; but there
would not be any too great a margin.

That was the last she saw of him until
he was carried home.

The body of P. J. O'Hara wbich wa
discovered floating in the Indiana Har
bor canal near the docks of the Inland
steel mill, was shipped by Burns and
McGuan to Valparaiso yesterday on
the 1:53 Pensylvania. The funeral is
In progress today the services being held in the Catholic church at Valpo.
Mr. O'Hara who was foreman of a
cement gang and was employed at the Inland mill, was well known and popular. He boarded at the Joyce Hotel In
East Chicago and on Dec. 24 left the hotel, telling Mrs. Joyce that he was going to Valpo to take dinner with his mother. That was the last seen of him. Three weeks later Mrs. Joyce
received a letter from her lodger's mother asking information of her son.
Mrs. Joyce replies! that she had sup
posed he was in Valparaiso, and the communication between these women
was what first established the fact that
O'Hara was missing. Search failed to
reveal his whereabouts and it was on
Tuesday" that the first inklingr of what
had befallen him. was discovered.
On that daf, two workmen saw
black object floating in the water and
on closer scutiny the mass proved to be the body of a man. The police were notiiied and they in turn notified Burns
and McGuan, the latter comlnfl over to take charge of the remains. The body
had been frozen, and was badly disfigured, but identity was revealed by
papers on the person of the dead man.

Rev. Nelson H. Trimble, who has re
signed the pastorate of the Central
Christian church of Gary, has sprung
some new sensations which hit at the
United States Steel corporation, tho
red light district, and such .of the steel
city people who always have the
"busy" sign on their door when any
one conies around to discuss church
work. - ,
The clergyman uses the Christian
Messenger, a syndicated publication
tssued throughout the northern parts
of Indiana and Illinois as the vehicle
to carry his 'return lire. Incidentally
he shows how he" came to Gary and or ganized three Christian churches, ac cumulated church property worth $20.
000 and then tells of the difficulties
that caused him to quit.
Roasts l. S. Steel Trust.
The minister also compares Gary to
Sodom of old which God promised to save if ten righteous men could be found. He believes that Gary could
slip through.
Rev. Trimble's message comes in an
open letter signed by himself and wife
and printed in tho current issue of the
Christian Mesenger. At the beginning
he writes: "It was not until after I ar
rived in Gary and was actually at work
on the field, that I learned of the atti
tude of the steel company toward new
churches. It did not take long to dis
cover that it was almost impossible
to secure property in Gary for church." Saloons Have Ciary By Throat.
"There wfere between 200 and 300 sa
loons in Gary, several of these run un der,-the supervision of the Steel Com pany, and one at least in one of thei
buildings. The saloons had Gary by the throat, making It the mosT. despised
city in America by all who hoped fo social reform. But still the Steel Com
pany made it as hard to get a church
In their subdivision as they could.
"I soon learned that there was a re
light district In Gary which was well
known as the mills and run as openly
A red light district that was as defian
and as rotten in Its putrefaction as any in America, not excluding ilew Orelans. where sugar, cotton, and lost women, are openly advertised .a? staples. "I learned of other things as bad

OF O'HARA SENT TO VALPO

BASKETBALL GAME
Three members from the WThltine
Owl Club basket ball team and the three from the Dave Lederers of Ham
mond met in a conference with the sporting editor of Thb Times last night and arranged rules which will regu-
iaie any disputes tnat might arise when the two teams battle for cham
pionship honors at the Gary Y. M. C. A. floor tomorrow night.
The members of each team were con
fident of victory and from all appear
ances there is going to be a hard fought battle. Both quintets are in
excellent shape and are anxiously
waiting for the whistle to blow or the
eve of the big game.
The Dave Lederers will likely outweigh the Owl Club, but they hope to
over balance this by alertness and fast team work. Pollard fhe Hammond star will show up as the largest man on the Lederer line lip while Girard will loom
up at center for the Owl Club.
xne louowing line ups was chosen
last night: Owl Club T. Girard, Green, Duggan
Griffith, Lucke. Pritchard and F.
Girard.
Lederers F. Blocker, Welmer, Parker, Ivey, Polard, Frank Blocker and
Klein.
HAMMOND BEATEN
BY EAST CHICAGO
In one of the roughest polo games
that has ever taken place at the Lewis
skating rink. East Chicago, the Dave
Lederers of Hammond met defeat at
the hands of the East Chicago skaters
last night by a close score of 1 to 0
Football, boxing and wrestling shared
a part of the contest and none of the above sports had anything in the way
of roughness on the polo game last
night.
It was just a case of who could slam
push or pull the hardest, and from all
appearances East Chicago had the best
of it. A rule was to the effect that If a
team makes three fouls In any of the
three parts of the game a point will be
taken from their scores. In this way East Chicago lost one of their goals, three fouls being called in the second
part of the game,
Preliminary to the opening of the
