HOW THE Pursuant og the elusive shekel, college students are to be seen in the vocations of the unskilled at the mills and shops In and around Hammond. With the parsing of the summer they will fold up their wigwams and noisily beat It back to their happy hunting grounds on campus and athletic fields. Bernard Graves of Armour Tech. is doing rigorous work as a marker of Bteelsteel In the Hegewisch plant. The remuneration is good and Graves Is satisfied. Julius Meyn, back from the L'niver - sity of Pennsylvania, where he Is tak- : ing a commercial course. Is employed by his father. One of Jule's chief duties is to see that a big tourist gets plenty of road work. This had a tendency to distract several other college students from' their 'summer vocations. Edwin Friedrich, a student of law at DePauw, will remain In Hammond this summer. He has not as yet complied with 'summer working law. Robert Mott. a cadet at Mercersburg, Pa., who has won distinction in academic athletics, Is very emphatic In Tiis declaration that he is working. All that remains to substantiate this claim Is to catch Bob at it. Carl Bauer, student of electrical engineering at Purdue, is working at the line which he is studying.

Mrs. Calley had turned on the ga to light it, but found it to be off. She latter put a quarter In the meter, bu as often happens forgot to turn oft the jet. Later upon entering into th house after a visit next door she noT tlced the escaping gas. Her husband was overcome. Remembering a lesson in first aid to the injured, Milrose, who is not yet 12, began to apply the methods taught By the various means that are advisa ble in cases of asphyxiation h brought his father too before the wife had found a doctor and brought him toN the scene.

Chicago were arrested by Captain Han Ion near Calumet avenue this mornlni following an escapade since last Tues day. Eoth 12 years old and well dressed they left their respective homes last Tuesday with a dollar in change and when arrested this mofning they were both hungry and penniless. At night they slept where ever they could lay their heads, either a box car or some hallway. Tuesday they met three tramps outside of Chicago and the flvj camped in a dugout in some woods for two days. Friday the young runaways came to Hammond where they slept in a box car over night. This morning the two lads awoke and went to the residence of Mrs. H. E. Granger on Hamlin street where they begged for something to eat. They then told that they were looking for a sister who lived In Hammond. but upon Investigation It was learned that they did not have any sister here. Mrs. Granger gave the two lads a hearty breakfast and after they had left the police were notified about the young boys. Captain Rimbach then went in search of the young lads and found them hunting birds in the swamp near the distillery. They were then brought to the police stfction where they confessed of having run away from home. Only one reason was given for running away from home and that was that they got too many lickings. "I have a step-father said one of th lads and everything I do he scolds and licks me. I don't like him and will not go back home." The lads' parents were notified this morning and they will be taken back to Chicago this afternoon. Crowds Not Large. Although the water at the Lake Front Park beach Is reported by far too cool for an enjoyable swim, a number of bathers dared the chilly waters and the storm yesterday afternoon. They did not stay In very long, however, and will likely wait until the water gets warm before they go in again. The crowds at the park have been smaller tnan usual tnis year on account of the cool weather, but when the hot weather approaches it Is expected that the beach will draw larger crowds than ever before. New bathing suits have been purchased by the owner of the bath house, who is expecting a busy sason. Vendor Cigars trt pronounced ex. ceptlonaIly good fry all smoker,

Mlsa Harriet SOUTH HAMMOND LASS IN TROUBLE. Minnie Farnia of South Hammond, who has given the police trouble on other occasions, was arrested on a war rant by Bailiff Trost yesterday morning on a charge of petit larceny.

The ring was found In the woman's possession, but when brought to the police station she denied that it was the property of the young lady, saying that she had purchased the ring several years ago. She put up a bold front and not until the owner of the ring identified the .jewelery ,dld she confess that she had ftcked It up from, the' wash stand. She then told that she picked the ring up after the young lady had left the room and not knowing whom it belong ed to she did not want to give It back to any one but its owner. fcnt ! nwnr Tnii iPrsecuting Attorney Ross turned the ring over to its owner and after giving the lady some advice the case was dismissed.

TIN WORKERS SCARCE. El wood, Ind., June 15. There has been an advance of IS cents a box. finished tin, and the demand is greater than the supply, despite the fact that th mills are being worked to their greatest capacity. Tin workers are scarcer than at any time in the history of the tin business. There is a demand at the local mill for one hundred men. and withtheflrst hot wave there could be double that number used. Gary tin plate mills have 1,850 men at work and there is still a shortage of skilled labor especlalyy rollers..
