WAS AFTER JOHNSON'S

CURLY SC

Mr. Nangle, by the way, missed the opportunity of a life time on Sunday, lie admits himself that he was dead slow in being off duty at the time Jack John passed through Bast Chicago twice during that day In his auto. "I vow I would have arrested that fight

er," confidently asserts Officer Nangle, "had he been going no faster than three miles an hour, Just for the glory of having my name handed down to posterity as the man who pinched the champion heavyweight in 1912."

"He who laughs last laughs best'

was police officer Harry Nangle's comment to a bystander who witnessed that redoubtable officer yank a speeding motorcyclist off his machine by the coat talis yesterday, after the latter had Ignored his signal to halt. In East Chicago yesterdav. The man, who gave his name as Max Hiddle and who said he lived in Indiana Harbor, put up his motorcycle in lieu of a J25 bond and on appearing in the city court for trial was fined 1 and costs amounting to $11. The police have been laying for Hiddle forsom e time declaring that he has given them the merry ha-ha on several occasions when they have ordered him to check his speed. Instead of complying with the command the young man has extended his speed and merely smiled in derision at their fruitless efforts to nail him. This hapened. twice to officer Nangle himself and he swore a mighty oath that it should never happen again, if he. Officer Nangle, knew himself. So yesterdav when the speed fiend appeared on the four corners, the guardian of those cornerfe placed himself in such a position, that with one sweep of his brawny arm he could unseat the speeder. This he did, the day being cool and the motorcyclist wearing a coat, with convenient coat tails. Moral: Don't wear a coat if you wish to speed on a motorcycle in the vicinity of Forsyth and Chicago avenues, while Officer Nangle is on duty.

IG DAY FOR TAGGART

I TIMES BtREAI', ' AT STATW CAPITAL. Indianapolis, Ind.. July 17. Yesterday was a bl day for Tom Taggart, , Governor Marshall, the members of ; the democratic national committee, and a number of Indiana democrats. It was a big day for Taggart because he brought the national committeemen to this city and showed them how s completely he is the master of the Hoosier democracy, including Governor Marshall. It was a big day for Governor Marshall because he was honored with the visit of the national committee and because he heard Tom

Taggart say so many nice things about him. It was a big day for the national committeemen because they had a delightful little excursion from Chicago to Indianapolis and were entertained royally by Taggart. And It was a big day for the local democrats because It 'gave them an opportunity to shake hands with a number of big men of the party and to bask in the sunlight of their favor. It is difficult to tell who counted the greatest victory and advantage as a result of the day, but It is safe to say that Taggart came out with more to his credit than anyone else. Taggart was at his best in entertaining the national committeemen and in showing Governor Marshall to them. Governor Marshall ' had a chance.

too,', to give vent to his views on the subject of progresslveslm. He says he does not know what is meant by the word "progressive" as applied to polltics. He made this plain in an interview a few days ago. He said he had heard so much said about "progres

sive" politics that he wondered what It meant. And he said he did not yet know what was meant by "progressive." Testerday in a little speech which he made to the national committeemen the governor brought ou this same thought. He did not deny that he was

a progressive, but he said he did not know what It meant. He said If a man who believes in the Declaration of Independence is a progressive then he is a progressive. But that was all he coul y on the subject. This attitude on the part of the governor undoubtedly will not be a very great attraction to progressive republicans who feel that they do not care to vote for Taft and who will not vote for Roosevelt. Also it probably will not go down very well with one V. J. Bryan of Nebraska, who has all along opposed Marshall because he would not come out in the open as a Bryan progressive. But Marshall evl-

' dently does not care and does not propose to back up from his original po

sition. One result of the visit of the democratic national committee to this city yesterday is the starting of a movement-to have the notification of both Wilson and Marshall take place in this city. J. Fred Hoke, president of the Indiana democratic club, has agreed to take up the matter with Wilson and with the committees that will have the notification in charge. The plan had its origin with the state fair management, which wishes to have the notifications take place in the big coliseum at the state fair grounds, where the Bryan-Kern notification was held four years ago. The coliseum holds about fifteen thousand people and Is a fine building. The state fair people say it is the

Ideal place for the meeting. When the matter was proposed to Hoke he said he would take the matter up at once. He started to work on It while the members of the national committee were here yesterday, but he will have to lay the plan before the two

notification committees appointed at

the Baltimore convention. At present the arrangement is for the Wilson notlcatlo nto be held at Trenton, N. J., but there is believed to be a chance to . pull off both notifications at the same time In this city.

The shooting occured shortly after

six o'clock. Mrs. Watson had been m

Chicago and had Just returned to her home, he went out Into the kitchen to

get her baby from the Smith woman

who was in the room with her former

husband.

The maid handed the child to Mrs.

Watson and as she did so the black

man whipped out a revolver and shot

the negress twice. She fell to the floor

and he emptied two more bullets lno

her. Mrs. Watson screamed In teror and the negro then turned the gun on

her but whether he intended to fite the remaining bullet at the banker's wife,

whether it was meant merely to scare her or whether the pistol failed to

work has not been established.

Armed Mm To Rescue.

In another minute several neighbors

and men who were in the streets rushed into the Watson home. A. P.

Schaeffer, secretary of the Commercial

club. Alderman W. S. Feuer. Dr. T. B.

Templln. Harold Eckstrom, manager of

the Allman-Gary Title company, were

among the first to come to Mrs. Wat

son's aid. When the first two shots

wkere heard it was thought that a dog

was being shot but when two more

crashes rang out accompanied by the

screams of the dying woman and Mrs

watson those outside of the home

knew that there was trouble on foot

Several of the neighbors who appeared

on the scene were armed with revolv

ers.

George Cain, a city Inspector and a

bystander seized Smith until Capt. Mul

cahey and Patrolman Pruitt arrived on

the scene. In the meantime neighbors

calmed Mrs. Watson and Dr. Templin

attended to the dying woman. She was

taken to the Mercy hospital where she

died shortly after miflnlht. Wmir

bullets had penetrated her body.

Today Mrs. -Watson Is confined to her

home and she Is said to be prostrated by the shock. Her narrow escape from

deathat the hands of the negro and

the shooting of her maid unnerved her

It is said that had Mrs. Watson been

shot too that the angry neighbors who rushed to the scene would have put a

quick end to the negro as many of

them were armed..

Today Smith was ,arralerned twfnr

City Judge Wildermuth on a charrc o

was held to the superior court.

pledge myself if elected, to serve you honestly. Industriously and without discrimination; to apply to the business interests of the state exactly the same business principles that have been applied in my business career, so that the dividends of peace and prosperity shall be the. greatest possible. I believe profoundly In rule by the people, and that the. governor should serve in the Interests of the people, and not in the Interests of special organizations, classes or creed. I will undertake to give the office the highest efficiency of service and consciousness of personal responsibility of which I am capable... My life and record are an open book for your reading. Investigate and when you are satisfied as to my qualifications I shall be happy to hear from you directly that you are for me. If you desire that I should engage In this campaign then I trust you will be willing to do your share, and the greatest service you , can do the state, the party, yourself or me, Is to attend personally the primaries, and assist In selecting delegates to the state convention who will represent a majority vote of all the people. My friends -fch me to stand for this nomination, I am not only In their hands but In the hands of the great constituency of this magnificent commonwealth, which Is entitled by all that is sacred to the grandest and most sacrificing executive service that man can give his state. The taxpayers have a right to demand accounting for every penny of the millions they so lavishly give to her, and they have the right to name the administrative head of so Important an institution. I am anxious to hear personally the views of these tax-paying wage earners, farmers and business men of the state. I am for these men and the women and children represented by them, and this is their problem far more than It

is mine. Respectfully submitted, CHARLES ARTHUR CARLISLE. South Bend, Indiana, July 17, 1912.
