J There seems to be no remedy or recourse. Hammond people are simply j wondering who will be slaughtered next.

ANOTHER BIRTHDAY.
THE TIMES today celebrates its

THE TIMES is not perfect nor is
any human being. It sets no claim of superiority, of . pretension of populari
ty beyond what it feels that It has
some measure of right to expect. The
paper feels that it has reached a cer
tain age of maturity. . It has done long ago with experiments. It wants the support of all good men and asks for a continuance of the favors, Its
friends have so kindly bestowed upon it. Improvements are modestly planned for the paper in the future and
when thev come. THE TIMES will

pardonable pride permits a clarion
toot of Its own horn. Eight years ago
today with everything to learn and
everything to lose THE TIMES waa
born.
Sympathizing friends and enemies
alike predicted its hasty finish. It
was only a matter of time they said
when it would blow up. That timq
never came. There never was any danger of it because the paper came
to stay. Only one thing however, has made THE TIMES what it is and
that is the staunchness of the friends
who have stuck by it through thick
and thin and at every step in the
uphill fight.
Starting a newspaper is like break
Ing a virgin forest for the plow. The
work Is beset with difficulties and
calls for the hardest kind of labor as the pioneer knows. It taxes every
resource and all his powers. A news
paper nas its neid to cultivate, its
reached in the march to success.
WORTH LOOKING UP. We note with a great deal of in
terest that the champion woman

band.
Hate to give the fellows a shock,
but there is no question but what a
pile of hardworking hubbies in this
corner of the dear old Hoosier com
monwealth will be rushing home on
a mad chase to see whether the state

dium by which distant people gain an
idea of the city in which it is pub-;
lshed. If it is newsy, bright and at
tractive, with well filled advertising
columns, it gives the impression away
om home that the town is alive and
doing. It advertises the city and
draws people to it.
Feople have no idea how news
papers circulate away from their home town. Every publisher has a
ist of subscribers who formerly lived
where it was published and who are
interested In the place for business reason. And people send away many papers.
THE TIMES goes to nearly every
state in the union and to sixteen different foreign countries every day.
Its mail department alone keeps three men busy after its presses roll off the
editions until sunset.

The man who bought
it refused to take it off the company's
hands. The railroad returned it to the original owner and he refused to accept it, Baying that inasmuch as he had sold it and received the money for it the mule did not belong to him. The mule was sent to a livery barn, and the proprietor refused to accept it unless the road guaranteed the board bill, which is $15 a month. The road cannot dispose of the mule or give it away, inasmuch as it has been ordered by the court to produce the mule as a witness when the law suit pending between the two farmers
comes to trial.
THIS PLAN MIGHT WORK. Another narrow escape from death
was reported to this paper last night

FARMER'S DAY. On Saturday it is estimated that
more than 2,000 farmers will come to Gary as the guests of the Commercial club. ' They will be shown
through the steel mills on a special
train, be given an auto tour of the city, and entertained otherwise. There are hundreds of farmers in the county who have never been iu Gary and here is a glorious opportunity for them to get an idea of how much the new steel town has grown. THE TIMES welcomes the farmers and hopes they will pack its offices all day long. Nine-tenths of the farmers of Lake County without a question of a doubt have got their
acquaintance with Gary by reading of it in the columns of THE TIMES. That's what we are here for.

ASKS SON'S DEPORTATION. Mrs. Sophia Seibert, onco wealthy, appeared in court yesterday and, with tears streaming down her cheeks.
prayed the court to take steps to have
her son sent to some foreign country,
The woman told a pitiful story of his
abuse of her, of the squandering of her
fortune to keep him out of jail and of her determination at last to cast him off with the unusual plea which she made to the judge. She declared she would spend the last remaining dollar of her fortune to havo her son taken to a foreign country that she might die in peace. MAY UTILIZE STEAM POWER. Tho men who will build the railway connecting Laporte with Logansport by way of Rochester and Lake Manltou or Royal Center and Winamac, the route not having been fully determined, have about decided to use steam for power instead of electricity. The engineers report, to be submitted this week, will determine the route to be followed. Eastern capital It is said, is ready for almost immediate construction. The right of way along two routes, with franchises, has been practically secured.
PRETTY WARM XEAK COLl'JI BIS.
Ray Jordan, a farmer living near
Columbus, brougtht a load of corn to Columbus yesterday and before he be
gan unloading the corn hung his coat, in a pocket of which was a box of matches, on a post. A few minutes later the matches were ignited by tho, intense rays of the sun and the, coat was burned. EKGIXE SPARKS FIRE CROPS. A wheat field on the farm of August Keel and timothy meadows on the farms of Edgar McSweerey and James Perry, " in Bartholomew County, near
Columbus, were destroyed by fire yesterday, caused by sparks from Pennsylvania Railway engines, and a number of other wheat fields and meadows were set on fire in like manner. Pennsylvania Railway section men and
farmers in that locality are patroling the tracks to protect the farmers against loss by fire and the railway company against claims for damages. MILLIONAIRE IS AUTO VICTIM. Arthur T. Lewis, 40 years old, millionaire member of the contracting firm of W. T. Lewis Company, of Kew Tork was killed last night when his uto rolled down a twenty-five foot embankment near Llgonicr.
