ELKS HAVE BIG TIE (Special to Thb Times.) St. John, lud., August 18. Whiting Elks and their families enjoyed a big country picnic at Spring- Hill Grova last Saturday afternoon and evening, having come from the Oil City special on a C. I. & S. excursion train. Scores of autos from all parts of the county parked at the grove, during the afternoon and evening, the event having been well advertised. , Well attended as the picnic was, the crowd was not as large as was anticipated. In planning- for the picnic the Elks figured that the Standard would declare a half holiday, but In this they were disappointed. A ball game, and athletic contests for both men and women were on the program. The music was excellent and the big smooth dancing pavilion was keenly enjoyed by the dancers. The crowd was one of the best behaved that ever gathered at Spring Hill Grove. BUSINESS COLLEGE HEAD IS DEAD President of Hammond and Gary Schools Is Taken By Death. Frederick B.

It Is claimed that he has confessed and therefore Hammond theatre goers unknowingly aplauded the performance of a fiend in human form. A Leading Man. ..... Schneider, who the Chicago papers say is a vaudevlllep erformer la the man. Employees of the Orpheum theatre are sure It was him. They say that while he was here his behavior was gentlemanly but that he had a mania for diamonds and would talk of them and their value when ever given a chance. Vaudevillians are especially fond of diamonds as well as legitimate actors. The Chicago police In casting about for a motive In the crime may strike upon this: Schneider having been taught all his life the gospel of the stage, "buy diamonds, the best Investment on earth" may have thought upon that, planned, saved and bought, until he became mentally unbalanced on the subJest.

BACK BROKEN BYJOY RIDERS Fire Alarm Repair Man Victim of Auto at Tragedy Triangle.

'"Tragedy triangle." the intersection of East Eighty-third street, Jeffrey and South Chicago avenues lived up to Its sinister name again last night, when Jack Memsic of 9104 Ewing avenue was probably fatally injured in an automobile crash. Memsic, who is a fire alarm repair man was driving his wagon along Jeffrey avenue. At "tragedy triangle," so called for the numerous accidents happening there, he turned Into South Chicago avenue. As he did so a big red touring car filled with shouting and singing mn and women, going at terrific speed, crashed into his small vehicle. Hurled Fifty Pre. The wagon, was completely wrecked. The horse was killed, and Memsic was hurled fifty feet. He was picked "up by a policeman who had seen the Joy riders whirl by him a block away. Memsic's back was broken. He was taken to a physician's office nearby and later to the South Chicago hospital, where It was said his recovery is doubtful. Throws On Full Speed. According to the policeman, the car was going at least sixty miles an hour. There were three men and two women in It. When the car struck the wagon the driver slowed down slightly and then threw on full speed again and disappeared towards Indiana. Warnings were telephoned ahead to all the steel belt cities, but no trace of the Joy riders has ben found. A few minutes before the accident happened John Kratzcl of 4912 Wentworth avenue, said he was held up and robbed of $4S by three men at "tragedy triangle."

"FITZ," NEWS BUTCH, IS HOME AGAIN Edwin Fitzgerald, plutocrat of th newsboys, says that he spent a week in Toronto, Canada one Sunday. Try as he might the Blue Laws would not be broken, not even infrlngened upon. ;He could not smoke, eat candy, chev gum. see the movies or ride. The I street cars weren't running.

Cold North Winds! But it's too hot! he remonstrates. Next winter It will be too cold. The newsboy left in a state room on the new lake liner. North America, and ate at the captain's table. On Lake Superior cold north winds swept the decks .and drove everyone shivering to their staterooms for overcoats. Imagine a cold north wind today! A Queer Rain. A small cloud burst flooded Glendale Park, Kenwood and Conkeyville at the dinner hour in those suburbs last evening while upper Hammond remained dry as a desert. Water was running in stream down Conkey avenue, side walks were almost floating. There was a dividing line between Harrison Park and Carroll street where the rain fell on one side and didn't on the other. In the East. William H.'

6AZINE GIVES TO GARY'S McClure's magazine for September has an article on the Gary public schools written by Burton J. Hendricks, who uses the title, "Children of the Steel Kings." Quotations from the article read: "Most American cities now spend large sums of money, outside of those directly spent on class-room work, for public education and betterment. They appropriate millions for parks, for playgrounds, for children's gardens, for amietlc fields, ror "social centers." Mr. Wirt now suggested that these several uplifting influences be combined Into one Institution. "He would build, first of all, a public school building, but It would be different from any school building hitherto known. Most large cities have their "regular schools" and their technical schools in separate structures. Mr. Vyrt insisted that both establishments should be under one roof. Most , cities, again, have separate buildings for the grammar school and the high school. Mr. Wirt's Ideal school would contain kindergarten, grammar school, high school, and the first two years of college, all in one building. This novel Institution should stand In a large park. In front ahould be several acres set apart for the general populace with fountains, shade trees, greensward, walks, and benches. On each side should be gardens, in which each school child who desired should have a little plot of his own. Immediately back of the school should be playgrounds. In the school building FOREMAN IS HURT. Mike O'Hara, a foreman In the Inland Steel plant at Indiana Harbor, was severely Injured Sunday about the head when he met with an accident in the mills. He is at St. Margaret's hospital with his life In the balance. Hammond K. C.'s Win. By defeating the San Salvador council of Pullman in one of the most interestingg and hard fought gamea of the season the Unity council of Hammond clinched a firm hold on first place in the : Knights of Columbus league pennant race at Harrison park yesterday afternoon. The score was 4 to 3. The game was attended by a howling mob of fans who were given thrills that kept them in a pitch ot excitement during he hour and a half of play which spanned the hard fought battle. Up until the ninth Inning the teams fought hand to hand, but when Connors sent a pretty drive over the center fielder's head In the last of the ninth he scored the winning run and broke the game up in a row. Desmond and Enright composed the battery for the Unity council. The field and diamond at Harrison park is in a very poor condition and local baseball players are asking that an appropriation be made to put it In shape. Weeds and sandburs have been permitted to gain tuch a big headway that now it is almost impossible to play on the grounds. Calls Meeting. P. J. Mann, eecretury of the South Side Improvement association, has announced that a meeting will be held in the Larson & Johnson grocery store on Highland street tonight, at which the question of needed Improvements will be brought up again. The association Is still smarting under the treatment it received from the common council at the last meeting, when the aldermen adjourned without giving the Conkeyville delegation a hearing. They have retained an attorney to prosecute the C. & O. railroad in an effort to make It give up the switch that cuts through Conkeyville and Kenwood. J. Wesley Reed Is president of the association. ' Dispatcher in Hospital. Robert Foley, dispatcher at Gibson, is in St. Margaret's hospital, very 111. The complaint is blood poison and it has made such Inroads into Foley's syjjtem that physicians are gravely concerned. Where Is Bennett? Manager Bennett of the Hotel Mee has not been at his place of employment for three or four days and Mrs. Mee is concerned about his whereabouts. He left one evening for his home In Chicago and has not been seen since. "If he is sick he would let us know most likely," said Mrs. Mee. "I will investigate." Back After Vacation. George A. Dobbins, the retired Hammond merchant, turned up Saturday night after an absence of three months in which friends, former patrons and acquaintances were in the dark. They knew he had left town, but had no idea where he had gone. In company with his brother-in-law, R. J. Reed, of Chicago, Dobbins was in the western part of the United States and Canada. He climbed the glaciers and fished for mountain trout. He came home the picture of health and believes his life has been prolonged five years and his youth renewed. Get Low Bid.

The contract went to the Ahlborn Construction company, whose bid was $1.44 a square yard for machine-mixed asphalt macadam. Downey & Portz bid $1.79, but hereto fore the price for this high grade paving material usually ranged around $1.90. The company asked for a figure on poured asphalt, on which the Ahlborn company submitted a fltrure of $1.29 and the Downey & Portz firm. $1.37. Machine-mixed asphalt macadam Is a better material and the promoters of the subdivision, by asking a bid on poured asphalt macadam, brought this In competition with the machoe-mlxed : pavement. Sixteen thousand square yards of pavement are to be built this fall, and at the low figure compared with what was considered a standard price the company saves in the neighborhood of $5,000.
