Rensselaer, Ind., Dec. 11. The Whiting Owls made a big wail after returning to their home last Sunday and the Whiting correspondent to the Lake County Times says that they charged the soldiers with rough tactics. They said the game was not clean and that the soldiers resorted to all manner of tactics to win by fair means or foul. The game was rougher than it should have been but the soldiers were no more the offenders than the visitors. The game was fast and furious and the floor being slick from dancing was responsible for a number of bumps in which the teams fared about equally.
Kirk was upset once and had a very
hard fall and he, as well as Putts and
Parks, have alight bruises on their faces. It Is hoped that futuf e games will be less rough and that the officials will watch for fouls and call them. The Whiting team, however, has no kick about the roughness which they instigated and took an equal part in from the start.
One or two who saw Bedes pick up
the basket, followed out of curipsity. A number of others fell In line, so that by the time Mr. Bedes had reached hla destination, there was quite a proceaslon at his heels. The basket was deposited on the Sergeant's desk and the ceremony pi untying it began. "All of you fellows, stand bank," said Officer Bedes portentiously as he gently fingered the knot. . "If it. should be a bomb, you'd wish tu had been less curious.' If, It's a bay, well that would be different.' - " The suggestion that it might be a bomb, had the effect of keeping , the crowd at a respectful distance, but the general verdict seemed to prevail that the basket contained an abandoned infant. Carefully the rope was unwound. Carefully Officer Bedes peeped within. The contents proved to be nothing mort Interesting than the trash evidentlyswept up after moving. . , 'You couldn't even dispose of this nt a rummage sale," said the officer In disgust, as the crowd sheepishly dispersed.

How a traveling salesman was robbed by pickopekets at the union depot of Gary, the Lake Shore and U. & O. station, where pickpockets have been operating intermittently for several months came too light with the finding of a purse in a Gary mail box by Letter Collector Ford. The purse had a $23 draft payable to J. C. Lewis and other papers, but no money was in It. Assistant Postmaster Kidwell remembered that mail had come to Lewis from the Buck's Stove and Range company, St. Louts, so he wrote to that company. Today he received word from John P.
Wentworth, sales director, that Lewis was one of their salesmen and that his
pockets had been picked In Gary. His purse contained $50 In cash besides the papers. The purse was forwarded to St- Louis. It is a common trlck-of Chicago pickpockets to put stolen purses in the mail
boxes as soon as they have taken the
cash from them.
