Court in session. Next week will be

taken up with special matters. No regular settings. PORTER SUPERIOR COURT. Judge Harry B. Tuthlll. Valparaiso. Court now In session.

Misrepresented Things.

Perl Stahl thought when he married Jennie Stahl that she was all that could

be desired in the way of a wife. She!

had assured him that she was ignorant

of the ways of the world and that shel came to him without & blemish on herl

character.

The marriage took place on Nov. 5,1

1910, and Stahl looked forward to a life!

of married bliss. Along about Feb. 10,1

1911, the stork brought a little young

ster to tht Stahl home.

To say that Stahl was surprised is stating It mildly. The result was that he soon afterwards left his wife and is

now applying for a divorce.

DECLARES CHANGE TENANTSJROBABLE West Pullman .Agent for Carleton Not Satisfied; Managers Don't Care.

E. F. Bryant of the Pullman Trust & Savings bank, the agent for the eastern parties who own the Hotel Carleton, plated today that the rc would be a change in the tenants of the hotel building in the near future. , He said that he had found a man who will be willing to pay a much larger rental than- Mrs. K. A. Mee is now paying and that the building will be turned over to him In the near future. He said that Mrs. Mee has a month-to-month lease, which can be terminated at any time. He said that Mrs. Meet management of the hotel had -bwenr- -highly satisfactory, but that, she would not pay what he regarded a a fair rental for the property. He said that the- reports that he

would sell the property for $9,000 to $12,000; are untrue and that the price that has been fixed on the property is $25,000. He says the prosent owners

have $35,000 in the hotel.

Mrs. E. A. Mee has made a success

of the management of the Carleton ho

tel ev.er since she has had the lease of

the property. She has built up a fine

business there in the past four or five

years. Mrs. Mee formerly leased and

managed the Majestic hotel. ,

Mrs. K. A. Mee, the proprietor of the

Hotel Carleton, said that she did not

know that an effort was being made

to lease the Carleton hotel to any other

persons.

She said that she Is paying all of the

rent that she thought the conditions

would warrant. She says that the agi

tation for a new hotel in Hammond, if j it is successful, will result in making

the property she now has under lease

valueless.

Under these circumstances Mrs. Mee

will not pay any more rent tha she Is now paying, and if the owners of the

building want to lease it to any one

else she is. willing.

SORE LUNGS, BRONCHITIS, ASTHMA and

CATARRH

Consultation and Advice Free

Is there any doubt In your mind about that tired feeling, as to the nature of that little cough, that restless, nervous and weak condition, that gloomy and despondent feeling, that little bit of fever at times, that flushed face, etc.? Is It not well to remember that old adage, a stitch in time, etc.? If you find that your energies are waning, that you get easily tired, that at times you are weak, nervous and excitable, if you have' sore lungs, bronchitis, asthma, or catarrh, Dr. Leedy, who has his office in Suites 32 and 33 Rimabch Building, over the Lion Store, Hammond, Ind., invites you to come In and have a confidential talk about your condition before it is too late.- Not all cases of sore lungs

can be cured, but many cases can if taken in time., I have just Installed a new treatment apparatus and now am especially prepared to treat this class of diseases. "Procrastination is the thief of time." -

CROWN POINT MAKES

HARBORJEAM GOOD

Pete Henning Was Very

Much in Evidence at the Game.

The 1911 champions from Crown Point blew into Indiana Harbor yes

terday noon and blew out again in the

evening and carrying with them an

other game to be added to their list

of victories. Pete Henning is the

answer to "How did it happen?" The

Indiana got to him for three hits in

the third inning netting them two runs but after that he got too stingy for any use and only allowed them two

more hits one in the seventh and an

other in the eighth, but neither of

them contributed anything to the run column. The county Beaters on the

contrary were quite fresh with Bobby

Lynch's find Stalkneskl and just walk

ed up to the plate and cracked out a single or double any old time they needed one in their business. Bobby stood for the familiarity until the

early part of the seventh when he de-. cided they had gone far enough, and

so removed Mr. Stalkneckl from the

public gaze, substituting Billock , in

his stead.

By the time however the damage

had been done, and the only good that the change accomplished was to keep

the fire from spreading to the sur

rounding buildings.

CRY RAISED

AGAINST SPEEDERS

A cry for drastic action against

auto speeders Is going up from ev

ery part of the county. The people

are sick and tired of being subjected

to Insult anj Injury by speed maniacs, who come principally from Chicago and monopolize the roadways,

particularly on Sunday, to the disad

vantage of the taxpayers who paid

for them. East Chicago police and the authorities or Gary Intend to go the limit in prosecuting speeders

this year.

Scores of Lake county auto owners

are to be classed with the Chicago drivers for recklessness. The people are demanding protection and are looking to the county and city authorities for assistance against speed-crazed autoists and motorcy

clists.

Hammond and Crown Point have

this season put up large warning notlces calling attention that the

rpkeed limit Is eight miles an hour. Dyer has the same warning notice

to the entrance of its city limits, and its neighbor, St. John, has a

town marshal, Nicholas Boecker,

who is on the Job all day on Sun

days, standing, a.t the principal street

Munster. Highland, Griffith and

Scherervlllft have joined the angry brigade.

Lowell, being on th old Cobe race

track course, is subjected "to the scorching pest as much as any com

munity in Lake county, and It Is from there that the suggestion

comes to erect a short telephone line along the most enticing stretch and

Most of the popular notions about mad dogs are called fallacies, in an ar

ticle by Dr. James Gordon Cumming,

director of the Pasteur Institute of the

University of Michigan, published in

the current number of the Journal of

the American Medical association.

That rabid dogs always forth at the mouth, that dogs develop rabies from

lack of water, that dogs are more like

ly to contract rabies in hot weather

than in cold, that dogs afflicted with hydrophobia are afraid of water, are

some of the popular notions which Dr.

Cummings declares are all wrong.

'W'e find only in the human subject

the dread of an attempt to drink wa

ter," the physician says. "A rabid dog

win uempt to aiinK water even

though the act induces a spasms of the

deglutitory muscles."

A rabid dog seldom froths- at the mouth, according to Dr. Cumming, whereas in a canine with fits there is profuse frothing. The "dog-day theory" is disproved, he say, by the number of winter cases.
