Indianapolis reports to the effect that Governor Marshall had instructed Attorney General Uonan to . proceed against the Mineral Springs Jockey club, which is preparing to conduct running races at Mineral Springs in Porter county, are apparently not worrying the premotors. John A. Gavit of Hammond, who is one of the directors and a member of the board of governors for 1912-1S. in (peaking of the reported action, said to a Times' reporter: "In the first pace we lo not know that Governor Marshall has given instructions to suppress the Mineral Springs Jockey club. Our only information along this line is what we have from the newspapers. Whether these reports are based on facts, or whether they are insplrel by men and combinations unfriendly to us we cannot tell. If the reports are true, I am sure that we will welcome an investigation as that, more than anything else,- woull set us right wita the public. How can there be any action against anyhow. j.a: long as we-.bava -violated no law or statute? "We are building a magnificent race track at Mineral Springs but there Is nothing illegal in that, and when we get ready to operate we will operate strictly under the law which makes racing in Indiana egal."

coat is made with the stylish pepluui.
There is an attractive collar and the

A Sad Affliction.
Mental suffering caused by the loss
of her mother and the tragic death of
her slsten-ln-law, Mrs. Paul MastelkT
who was drowned in the Kankakee
with Miss Veda Hemstock and Walte
Webster on July 28, brought total
blindness to Miss Leona Masteller on Monday. A complete nervous break
down in her case may result fatally
and specialists are dubious over the
outcome.
By an injection of a drug into th
spine It is thought by physicians tha sight can be restored. Miss Mastelle
has been unable to see" since ' Monday
when she was taken severely ill whll at her employment in the office of th
Conkey plant. Blindness came a few
hours after her removal to her home 1 606 Indiana avenue.
The triple tragedy in July was a
aftermath to the death of her mother
The daughter who is yet in her teen
was completely prostrated.
MOTORCYCLISTS ORGAN)
(EEPS OP WAR
ZATIO
ON 'TANK R
ISSE3B3
DING
The practice commonly known as
tank-riding," a method by which
some motorcyclists carry two passen
gers on a motorcycle built for only one passenger, is going to be discour
sed and stamped out, if possible, by
the Federation of American Motorcyclists.
The probable fatal burning of Miss
Ethel Smith of Gary who was "tank-
riding" last Saturday lends local intertest to the movement.
Marlon has a motorcycle club which
has a membership of more than fifty
riders of the "two-wheelers" and the
club ' is oposed to tank-riding. The
members of the club have done much to discourage "tank-riding" in and about Marion with the result but little
of it is seen here this season.
G. H. Hamilton, president of the F.
A. M., has during the last year taken
decided stand against speeding, the
open-muffler and "tank-riding," '. but
with the increasing number of riders and the return of the summer seaaon,
he has again turned his attention to
the tank-riders. 1 "
"If a motorcycle is built for two
passengers," says President Hamilton,
then It is perfectly proper for two
passengers to ride it. There are two saddles, two seats of handle-bars, and
every provision for the comfort of
both passengers. No one can object to this any more than they could ob
ject to carrying two passengers in a
two-passenger automobile.
"But, if a motorcycle is built only
for one passenger, by all means it
should carry but one.
"It is dangerous both to the riders
and the public and where the second
passenger is a woman, it is often im
modest when two passengers ride a one-passenger motorcycle.
"My attention has been called to the
practice of some motorcyclists who.
having a one-passenger machine, im
provise a seat on the tank or the lug
gage carrier for their young women
friends. "Such a seat is not stable or secure.
And if it is built on the tank. In front
of the operator, it interferes with the
operation Of the motorcycle and thus
oecomes oouoiy aangerous.
"With an improved seat there is, of
course, no set of handle-bars for the
second rider to hold. Consequently,
the second rider must hold to some
thing else and very often the opera
tor is selected. Aside from the dan
ger of such an arrangement, it is certainly not to the credit of motorcy
cling to see a motorcycle going down a street, with a woman clinging to an
Improvised seat over the rear wheel
and with one or both of her arms
around the man who is operating it.
"It is both dangerous and immodest.
And it reflects to the dicredlt of the great army of motorcyclists who are using and not abusing their machines.
The Federation stands for the use of motorcycles not for their abuse. Tt oposses speeding, the open-muffler, and tank-riding. It endeavors to have its
mebers take an interest in the appear
ance of their machines and persons It stands for courtesy, gentlemanly
conduct and all things that should
naturally be a part of the most enjoyable of all sports of recreations mo
torcycling. Everything that the F. A.
M. can do will be done to stop the
abuses of motorcycling and to this end it calls upon all of its members to lend their assistance. With a tandem ma
chine it is quite proper to carry a second pasenger the machine is built for that purpose. But, if it is a onepassenger motorcycle, and equipped for only one passenger, it should nev
er, under any circumstances carry two
riders.'"

Simplex Men Hurt.
I An electric flash of extraordinary size
last Tuesday afternoon iniured a num
ber of worklngmen near a welding machine in the Simplex shop. None of the
men is seriously injured, only one of
them having sustained superficial
burns about , the face and the neck. The
principal injury consisted in a shock to
the eyes owing to the bright flash. John Pryhm, who was in charge of the ma
chine, was burned about the face, and B. Jones, working nearby, is also said
to have been somewhat injured. Two other men farther away were also affected by the heat and flash. Although one of the superintendents in the shops today denied any accident whatever, other workmen say that the four men went home for the balance of the afternoon.

The advance in the price of steel
wire, nails and wire products of $1 per

Steel and Wire Company puts these
products on the same basis as prevail
ed on June SO, 1910, and better prices
are now .quoted than have been obtain
ed in over two years. This is the third
advance of $1 a ton in 1912. Th new prices are 1.60 -per 100 " pounds for
wire, andfor nails $1.70 per 100 pounds.
Other products advanced are galvaniz
ed and painted barb and galvanized
wire. As the wire business now is bet
