and gambling joint had his gin mill

closed last night by the sheriff. Sheriff

Brice Whitaker and several special deputies came to Jackson's at Sixteenth avenue and Jefferson street shortly after seven o'clock. The officers had their pistols in readiness aa other deputy sheriffs have experienced, gun play when trying to arrest Jackson. - He was promptly bundled into a - waiting car and after all of his liquor had been loaded onto a motor truck the machines made for Crown Point. . t : Jackson has been one of the blackest blots on the Knetts administration. His

place was a rendezvous ; of

crooks and criminals,

was pardoned by Governor Marshall after he ht I served a few days in the county jail. , Jackson on one occasion Is said to have shot a man, his own son

was shot and killed and he himself was shoi. in the Oary election day -riots, the bullet being in his foot. The ousting of Jackson from Gary follows that of the notorious negro gambling king of Gary, Bill Piper, whose" plaee was also closed by the sheriff.

MAY REDUCE FOOD PRICES

Washington, Dec 9. An order materially Increasing the weight of package which may. be carried 1ft the parcel post and subsetntially reducing rates will be Postmaster-General Burleson's Christmas gift to the nation.. Mr. Burleson announced today that the weight limit of packages to be carried in the first two zonee that is, to any point within 160 miles of their starting place will be increased on January 1 from twenty to fifty pounds. The rates now applicable to these zones will remain In force. At the same time the limit of weight on packages carried in the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth zones, or to all points in the United Statea beyond the 150 mile limit, will be increased from eleven to twenty pounds, with, reductions ' in postage rates in all of these aones except the last two. It was only a few months ago that Mr. Burleson increased - the weight limit of packages in the firs'

two . zones from eleven to twenty pounds. : The step that he has taken is only a partial development of the parcel post system, which eventually he expects will be carrying packages up to 100 pounds to all parts of the country. Of almost' equal Importance to his enlargement of the system ' is the intimation conveyed in his statement that he will 4-nk Congress to compensate the railroad of the country for the extra burden which the parcel post system has thrown upon ;-them. Complaints that the railroads were being imposed upon In the matter of parcel post have been piling in upon the Post Qffic- Department for weeks. It Is alleged that the. success of the who' were "obliged to handle the enermoystem was being attained by the Government at the cost of the carriers, ous increase " In mall on. -a, system of compensation which was entirely Inadequate. Furthermore, the railroads have been subjected to an additional

Tomorrow evening at Kunert's hall the citizens of Tolleston will meet to protest against the operating schedule of the Gary and Interurban railway. Many steel workers, workers, who are delayed in going and coming from the mills, will be present. It is planned to name committees to call upon the city council, the traction company, and it is possible that one will be appointed to get signatures for a complaint petition to be filed with the public utilities commission.

One of the grievances against the

present operating schedule Is the claim

that the whole traction system is tied up because of the inability of the Valparaiso-Hammond cars to confine

themselves to the time table limits.

The service during the past few weeks has been something awful to contemplate and patrons of the road are beginning to think that the operat

ing department is on a vacation.

present contracting gang. And it is reported on good authority that some of the leaders of the old gang are secretly identified with some of the new construction enterprises, being .financed by. citizens' ' patriots. A complete list of the new construction companies and their promoters will be published within a short time. ALLEGED THIEF TAKEN BY COPS - ,-. . -..

Flush Your Kidneys . Occasionally If You Eat Meat Regularly. . No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. . Meat forms uric acid which excites the kidneys, they become over-worked- from the strain, get sluggish and fall to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, - sleeplessness and urinary disorders come irom sluggish kidneys. , .

THIEVES AT LARGE

N HARBOR

Early Sunday morning thieves broke into the b hoe store belonging to Steve Toth, in Block avenue, and stole several hundred dollars worth of goods. Part of the goods have been recovered by the Indiana Harbor police, but no arrests have been made, although Sergeant Hughes is quite encouraged in the belief that the men responsible for the job will be .in custody iu the near tuture. At 9 o'clock Sunday morning Toth visited his store and was considerably surprised to find shoes lying about the floor in the greatest confusion, boxes upset, and great confusion generally. He knew at once that he had oeen robbed and after notifying the police, set about sorting out the shoes. The fact that many of the shoes taken had their mates left behind, leads to the belief

that professionals are not responsible

for the job but rather that was the work of unskilled home talent.

Sergeant Hughes and Officers Shields

and Bell have worked continuously on

the case ever since the report of the robbery was received, and at 3 o'clock this morning they were rewarded by the discovery of a box containing quite a number of pairs of shoes and a sack with leather and other repair supplies. Officers Ball and Lewis made this discovery. The goods were brought to

the station and the police nave hopes

of finding other plunder in the same vicinity where this lot was discovered,

and elsewhere. As the case has not been completed they are withholding

definite information as to the locality

in which the first lot of the plunder was found, and where they expect to

unearth more. , Sergeant Hughes said this morning

"Householders and store-keepers would best keep a sharp watch over their possessions, and . keep their places se

curely locked, as we are looking for more of this, tort of thing .right alonj;

now. The police are redoubling their vigilance on all sides, as every day

idle men from all over the country are drifting In, looking for legitimate work, or not finding that, for a job to "put over " For the past two or three

weeks the station has had many ap pllcants for lodging, sometimes a:

many as thirty applying for a bed in

one night."
