Judge A. C. Huber of Gary was holding court yesterday afternoon when the thunderstorm arrived. The heavens poured out their surplus water and the thunder and lightning was worse than the proceedings of the credential committee at a county convenetion. "Gee whlzs! I forgot. This court is adjourned forthwith," the judge suddenly shouted. Then hizzoner reached for his rain coat, goloshes and parasol.

"There Is no one at home and my 76 chickens are out in the rain and they'll get soaking wet. I'll be back as soon as I get them In again," said the court as he disappeared out into the deafening roar of the storm. A little while later he returned and court resumed. "The chickens are all right now and court will please come to order," were the words that accompanied the business of re-donning th 9 . judicial ermine.
