East Chicago School Head Has .Interesting Story to Tell of Suffragette Parade and Inauguration Ceremony.
Mr. E. X. Canine, superintendent of the East Chicago public schools, returned yesterday from the east, where he has been for a. couple of weeks, attending the National School Superintendents' association convention at Philadelphia and later taking in the national capital and the inauguration festivities. Mr. Canine was caught In the crush that attended the woman's suffrage parade and had several exciting experiences.
He returned full of enthusiasm over the trip, and feeling that he had learned many things from the superintendents' convention, which was characterised by some unusually good papers, to say nothing of the good time he had in Washington. "The Washington end of my trip was purely a vacation of course," said Mr. Canine, "but I cannot say I enjoyed it any more than the week In Philadelphia, which was more in the nature of work. Of course it was at Washington that the excitement all happened and I chanced to be right in the thick of it. My friends and I who were caught in the crush on Pennsylvania avenue the day the suffragists had their parade. It was a most amazing sight, the crowd that day. Pennsylvania avenue was a solid mass of humanity, packed so closely that it was impossible for anybody to make much headway through it, excepting as the crowd was opened by means of ambulances and automobiles. These had to progress very slowly, but they managed to make an opening through which the women made their way. The parade was great. I do not know what the result of it will be, but it certainly made an impression. The gamenuss of the woman marchers won them much favor from the crowd. I did not see any disrespect shown to any of the marchers. The crowd where I happened to' be was tremendously good natured and every bod v seemed to be in high spirits, as though pleased
the situation all around. The
Jeering of the women and the insult
that were -reported all took place father along the line of march, in the vicinity of Ninth and Tenth and even
Seventh and Eighth streets. . We had a good view of the inaugura
tion events and having acquaintance
with the sergeant at arms of the house
we managed to get good seats- when
we attended the sessions of that body
We met a good many distinguished statesmen, but neither the outgoing nor
the Incoming president, and made no
effort to.
The good nature of everybody was what struck me most forcibly. Taft looked happier than Wilson, perhaps
because it was Wilson instead of
Roosevelt, who was taking his place,
but he wore his usual smile and then some. Of course this was inauguration
day. Whether the . high spirits of the
nation as evidenced at the festivities in Washington, will last or not, Is to be seen later, but to me it seemed like
a good omen for harmony and pros perity.
charged with being cold and distant and with refusing to go to church. The complaint relates that the plaintiff is a Catholic, while the defendant is a Protestant and that he was continually harassed about church affairs. ' Attorney I. Leon Gould, representing Arthur Lee Rickart, has started an action against Alice' M. Rickart The plaintiff is a conductor on 'the Gary A Interurban railroad. They were married Nov. 12, 1P12. and separated Feb. 19, 1913. A violent temper, drunkenness and abuse is said to be responsible for the trouble. They have no children. After Vaa Home. ravld J. Lewis, who bought the book assets of the East Chicago Hardware Company, when it went into the hands of a receiver and A. J. Schlieker was appointed trustee, has brought an action against Representative W. B. Van Horn to recover $200 which Van Home is said to have owed the defunct company. The case was filed by P. A. Parks. Granger & Lotz, representing Louis I. Little, has started an action for 10.000 damages against the Chicago, Lake Shore & South Rend Railway Company on account of Injuries that were received by the plaintiff while he was a passenger on one of the cars of tho company running between Hammond and Gary. The plaintiff is said to have
been so badly squeezed by the crowds in the car that he was permanently injured. The accident is alleged to have happened Oct. 20, 1912. Attorney George Miller, representing Andrew Kmetz, the administrator of the estate of Mlrko Kasich, who was killed by a Michigan Central train at Madison street In Gary on May IS, 1912 has brought an action against the railroad company for 110,000 damages.

" This prescription for the removal of freckles is the discovery of an eminent skin specialist, and is so uniformly successful that it is sold by any druggist under guarantee to refund the money if it fails.

department. President Wilson may or
may not take a hand in fixing a line beyond which hungry aspirants cannot go in invoking the power of'removal.

MIST ATTESD TO DITTIES. If the democratic postmasters gener
al wants to help in getting rid of republican postmasters he can go a long way in that direction by giving a strict construction to the eight-hour
rule. There is nothing in the law that
says h'ow many hours a day a presiden
tial postmaster shall work, but the
postofflce department in recent year has adopted a settled policy that postmasters shall' "stay on the Job" Just
the same as other government em
ployes and shall labor, eight hours i
day for Uncle Sam.
The members of the Indiana delega
tion are expecting regular saturnalia
of charges against postmasters, and
they will not be surprised if the
charges include about all the misde
meanors and official derelictions there
are in the category.

The first attempt to make American
coins artistic was undertaken by Presi' dent Roosevelt, who took the design
lng of some new mintage away from
the regularly employed, untrained fed
eral engraver and called In St. Gaudens. Since then various sculptors have
been given the task of designing the new coins as occasion arose.
By our present laws the designs of any of our coins cannot be changed oftener than every twenty-five years. The new nickel has one interesting innovation in that the sculptor's initial visible only under the strongest magnifying glass can be found under the 3 in 1913. Up to now this honor has been denied our American artists, but that most effective of all modern
coins, . the French franc, and other
French coins bear the sculptor's name
in full, so it was decided to cede an
initial letter to American designers

After sufferingfor years' and trying all kinds of remedies wthout help, Vinol cured my stomach trouble and built me up so I can eat heartily without the slightest

The recovery of Mr. Waterhouse was due to the combined action of the medicinal elements of the cods' livers aided by the blood making and strength creating properties of tonic iron, which are contained in Vinol.

News of the fall of Janlna and Its
capture from the Turks by the Greeks
last night caused much Joy in the Greek,!
colony in Gary.
The story of Janlna's fall Is briefly
told in the following cable:
"Athens, Greece, March 6. The Turk
ish fortress of Janlna; the key to the
posesion of the province of Epirus, with
its garrison of 32,000 men, surrendered to the Greek army today, , after a de
fense which forms one of the most bril
liant episodes of the Balkan war.
"The surrender was preceded by a fierce bombardment, lasting without
cessation for two days and two nights.' Gary Boys At Janlna.
Reason for the joy in Gary because
Janina has fallen is that more than 100 Gary boys, Greek reservists who quitA
their Jobs in the steel mills, went to the front and were assigned to the
crown prince's command at Janina.
In a letter published a few days ago in The Times "George Kollas, formerly of the Orphan store. Fifth avenue and Broadway, told of the hardships that tho Gary boys fighting before Janlna.
George wrote to his brother Thomas,
who is employed at the Orphan store,
that unless Janlna fell very shortly.
George Kollas wrote at the time that
pneumonia, due to the men being
obliged to sleep in the open, was kill
ing more soldiers than were the Turkish bullets.
