For months Walter Sohl, of the City Fuel company, has been missing larg; quantities of coal from the yards a Sohl street and Michigan avenue. Ef forts were made to find out how and where the bituminous was disappear Ing, but few clues of importance were brought to light. Last night Mr. Sohl turned sleuth and arrived at his coal yards just in time to see two figures carrying away a large washtub full of soft coal. Or dering them to halt fn the name of th law the coal magnate placed them un der arrest and marched them to th Central station. They were booked as Sylvester Krlekbaum and George Sehpandt. both residing in Hammond After spending the night behind th bars the two men were brought befor Judge Barnett In the city court thi morning on charges of petit larceny Mr. Sohl appeared in court and, no wishing to see the two men punished for the first offerse, asked that lenien ' be shown them. Each entered a plea of guilty and ezzer Deing reprlmar.de. by Judge Barnett their release was or dered. Other coal companies In Hammon have been suffering from a gang o coal thieves, and the next coal thie that is captured Is likely to get a full dose of the law. HAMMOND WINS BY BIG MAJORITY In the inter-city bible school contest between the Christian churches of Hammond and Valparaiso, Hammond yesterday came out on top with 1,533 points as against Valparaiso's 1,116. The contest has six more weeks to run, two Sundays having already, elapsed. The prize Is a handsome banner. The two classes are among the largest in the state and for a long time there has been much good natured rivalry between the two. A week, ago yesterday Valparaiso was In the lead with 964 points against Hammond's 933. but during the week, owing to a revival that Is now on in Valpo, that congregation was able tc add ISO points during the past week.

which were added to yesterday's total.

While Valpo has the big student body in the university to draw on, Hammond is showing results under the leadership of Rev. Sharp and his strong team of personal workers. Thus Hammond yesterday had an attendance of 49. with only four tardy, against Valpos attendance of 454 and 48 tardy. The Sunday school collection in Hammond yesterday was 118 against $14.15 raised by its competitor, and the former added 72 new members against Valpo's 44. The Hammond school shows 380 personally owned Bibles, while the neighboring city claims only 171. Indiana's Lawmakers Start the Sixth Week of Their Session; Garnishee Bill Denounced by Some as Outrageous. TIMES BIREAf, AT STATE CAPITAL. Indianapolis, Ind, Feb. 17. When tho Legislature reconvened this afternoon for th sixth week of its session it had a busy week ahead. It expected that the garnishee bill would be put on its passage again this afternoon In the House. The bill, backed by the retail merchants of the state and opposed by a number of labor leaders, failed to pass several days ago for the want of a constitutional majority of the votes in the House, but It could be called up for passage again. Since Representa tive Keegan, who led the "fight against the bill, has resigned as a member of the House and is no longer in that body, the friends of the bill believe they can put It over. The House has amended the Keegan bill which provides the length of a work day for women by fixing It at a (Continued on Page 7.) LONG TRIP Sir. and Mrs. F. S. Betz and Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Gostlin returned Saturday, and Mr. and Mrs. Peter W. Meyn returned today from an extensive cruise of the West Indies, looking as brown as could be and in the best of health. waiter Meyn and Lyman iJetx were also In the party. Neither Mr. Gostlin or Mr. Betz took an option on the Panama :anal and Mr, Meyn did not start a bank in Havana. None of the party bought the everglades In Florida, and all of them are of the opinion that Lake county is th greatest field for Investment In the ter ritory covered by their trip. William H. Gostlin, who got his start in the dredging business, said that the canal is certainly wonderful and that every American ought to be proud of the manner in which the work Is being conducted. Mr. Meyn says that the trip was one of the most pleasant he has ever taken, and that is only emphasises the fact that the Calumet region Is the greatest place in the world after all. Mr. Betz was glad to get back on the Job and thought that Havana was by far the best city they visited. His opinion in this respect was confirmed by Mr. Gostlin. The women of the party proved to be good sailors, for the most of the trip, and enjoyed their experiences Immensely. "THE SCHOOL GIRL." An exceptionally clever company carried "The School Girl" to undoubted success at the Orpheum where the piece was performed for. the first time here in the "tabloid" form.

When Woodrow Wilson wends his way to the capitol building in Washington on March 4 to fake the oath cf office as president of the United States he will be accompanied by a silent bodyguard of thirteen young men.

The catch line, "You don't know who I am." which he continually repeats when questioned as to his identity, and th-3 amount of fun which he succeeds in extracting from this phrase Is remark able.

Neil Moore, Jack Lewis and Miss Elenore Meredith all go to make it one of the best "tabloids" Mr. Woolfolk has given us this season. The chorus ia youthful, pretty and sings well.
