CHARGES ARE MADE AROOHDJTY HALL Charges that the ring of high assessment city- contractors are in a conspiracy to grab 135,000 from . Ridge road property owners are heard around the Gary city hall. Recently when Special Engineer Melton completed plans for the sewer system he fixed the estimate, an honest and efficient one, so other engineers say, at $265,000. But the paving brick gang sems to be a combination and they are said to be holding out .for $300,00: Several south side residents declare that before they will be robbed any further by . the high assessment gang that they, will tie up the sewer building by court action. One attorney said that if the estimates are revised that he will call for a grand jury investigation.

Evansville, Ind., May 4. Police are trying to solve the mystery of two young girls, taken from this city by unknown men and abandoned, one of them on a river island. In both cases the children assert they wandered

away in search of violets, and as far as can be discovered, neither suffered any harm at the hands of the abductors. Thelma Rouleau, 12 years old, who was found on an islet in the Ohio River, insists she waded there in search of flowers, although the water is twenty feet deep betwen the island and the shore, and when found she was wet only from the waist down. She refus ed to leave the island at first,- although the rapidly rising water had covered it by this, afternoon, and the waves from a passing steamer were washing over her skirvas she sat on a log. MotV-r Ipkolda Girl.' The police believe she was- taken from Sunset Tark on the river, front in this city by a man in a launch, who

abandoned her there, but that the girl expected him to returrt for her. The mother insists the girl's story is true, .and refuses to aid the police. I The second girl. Flora Adamson, 11 years old, was found five miles out on the Boonvtlle traction line last night jby a farmer. She had a lap full of Howlers and was sobbing. She declared her I' father had sent her to a. drug store, and that she wandered out into the country for flowers and became lost. jThe police believe she was taken out in an automobile and that the driver was. frightened away, when about to attack her, by the approach of another . automobile. . .

turning to-Washington, he 'will take a more northerly route and deliver a series of speeches through the state on the return trip.. When asked what kind of speeches the President will make in his own state McKlnley said: "They, will not be on the subject of peace and arbitration." William Barnes Jr. apparently has given the answer to the question as to New York's preference. In a letter he has written to Indiana delegates to .the Chicago "invention he says: "The record that I have shows that you have been elected a delegate to the Chicago convention, and I am taking the liberty, therefore, of writing to you in order that I may secure from you. If

! possible, your view as to what should I be done there. There is no doubt that jthe vote of New York stands eighty- , three for Taft and seven for Rosevelt.''

If You Were an Expert, What Car Would You Buy? The time has passed when automobiles can be sold to you on their appearances or claims. This is a day when you and every purchaser must be shown what the car for which you pay your money will actually perform; what it will do. Beware of an automobile salesman who attempts to beguile you with a pleasing story. Tell him to show the goods and prove to you that his cars are worth the money. Find out whether his car is a real car or only an assembled automobile built to sell. You have a right to your money's worth, but it is up to you to see that , you get it. Deeper than all appearances, there are a few expert tests which ought to be applied to every car. Who makes the car? Is it an assembled car or made from top to bottom by one manufacturer? What kind of a guarantee is cri it? Does the manufacturer respect his own product with a real guarantee, or does he Want you to take the chance? What do parts cost you and how conveniently can you get them ? How many cars of this make are in service and how many are giving satisfaction? Questions like these go deep into the heart of the case, and if you put them rigorously upon any car you will find out with a certainty whether or not that car is worth its price. We are selling Studebaker E-M-F "30" and Flanders "20" cars because we know that, dollar for dollar, their equal is not sold in the market today. The records of many thousands of cars in all kinds of service have convinced us absolutely. Studebaker E-M-F "30" and Flanders "20" cars are built to run, and because they run they sell. If we cannot prove to you under the most searching test that Studebaker cars are absolutely the best automobile values in the market, we do not want your business; but we can prove it, and your neighbors who drive these cars will tell you the same thing.

Be an expert when it comes to buying a car. You can, by

getting from us some further ideas on real tests of an

automobile. ' Clip the attached coupon and send it to us now because we have something new to tell you

which you ought to know, whatever car you have

in mind.
