TIMES BIBEAU, .( - ! ', AT STATE CAPITAL. . Indianapolis, Ind., Jan. 15. The makeup of the senate committees as announced by Lieutenant Governor O'Nell is regarded here as being well done. Mr. O'Neill appears to have used a good deal of care in making up his committees. One thing noticeable about them Is that while, of course, the

committees are made up of a majority of democrats, he has placed a republican member on practically every committee, and he has also recognized

the progressives by giving the two

progressive members a' number of

places on committees, t For Instance, Senator Gavit. the bull mooser from

Lake county, is a member of the committees on legislative apportionment, organization of courts, mines and min

ing, and claims and expenditures. Senator Hibberd of South ' Bend, another bull mooser, Is a member of the committees on finance. banks. trust companies and savings associations, city of Indianapolis, and ees and salaries. ' Senator - Fleming of Fort Wayne plucked several good things on committee appointments. He is chairman of the committees on railroads, manu-

and roads.

Since the Senate committees have

been announced the senate has planned

to go right ahead with Its work. Com

mittees already are threshing out the bills that have been Introduced, and

committee r reports will be coming

within the next day or two. One of the interesting bills intro

duced Is one to abolish flanging as a penalty for capital crime and the sub

stitution of electrocution. All execu

tions in this state, under the'present

law, take place at the state prison, and

electrocutions would take place there

also. One of. the Interesting features

of the prison situation in the legisla

ture is that Senator John B. Faulknor

of Michigan City Is the chairman of! the senate committee on prisons. The state prison is located "fn his home

town. .

It Is remarkable that no woman suff

rage bill has yet made its appearance

in either house of the legislature. And as far as Is known at this time, none is "In sight. Two years ago a woman

suffrage bill was one of the first to be

Church." Tomorrow afternoon he will

TEDDY SHEARER OPEN

TO CONGRATULATIONS

"Teddy" Shearer, who for a number of years filled the office of majordomo

in the Hammond building, occasionally

giving of his time to perform the func

tions of an arm of the law, as assist

ant constable, sprung the announce

ment today that he has been a bene diet for the past twenty-four hours.

A very ornamental certificate which

"Teddy" showed his friends in confi

dence today, and which looks like the

bona fide article, backs up his word

that he was married yesterday to Mrs

Minnie Cook at Crown Point by Judge

Harry B. Nicholson.

"Teddy" is a native of Crown Point, and now that he is going to settle

down to the romantic life of keeping house he will make his home in Crown Point. It develops that Mr. and Mrs. Shearer had a long standing acquaintanceship. Mrs. Shearer formerly lived In Hammond, but has made her home in Crown Point during the past year.

"Spiegel ought to sell every bit of furniture that will be sold in Chicago this month!" (THE SPIEGEL GIANT) If every man and woman who will buy much or little furniture in Chicago this month could know furniture conditions, furniture prices and furniture values as I know them. SPIEGEL WOULD SELL ALL THE FURNITURE THAT ALL CHICAGO WILL BUY THIS MONTH! That won't happen, of course. First, because hundreds of buyers won't know about Spiegel's sale. Second, because there's no law that prevents others from advertising bargains "as good" as Spiegels. That's too bad. It means that lots of folks will buy furniture at other places than Spiegel's stores and they won't get anywhere near so much lor their money as they would if they came here. Spiegel's Discount Sale is completely in a class by itself. It deals only in high-class goods at low prices- And the beauty of it is that the man who buys on credit saves just as much as the man who pays cash. And it comes Just when manufacturers are raising

prices right and left.
