FLUME NEARLY DONE .The construction of the Fast Chicago concrete flume, plans for which call for an extension from the Alder street punfping station to the river by way of Gary and Cllne avenues, has proceeded practically up to the latter thoroughfare. This means that within a short time Gary avenue will be once more opened to traffic so that tourists from the north can reach Gary from East Chicago by way of Fifth avenue without unnecessary detour. It Is not expected that'.'H will be necessary to close Cline avenue for the work on this street, consequently constructionwork will not interfere with traffic at this point.

SLOT MACHINES DO BIG BUSINESS The police of East Chicago received word last night that there was a man at the Souyi 'Shore station that had more money than he knew what to do with and that he wanted eomt help in taking care of his coin. Officer Nauracy responded and found Wm. R- Rocklln. representative of the Wattling Scale Co. who had been making collections for the various "Gea your Wate'" scales In this locality. It was too late to secure banking facilities and he had a bag filled with pennies. His books Showed that tie

bag contained 13,600 of these coppers. The police gave him a receipt for the bag and contents and took charge of it for the night.

THE CONTRACT S. 1m Eisler of Gary, formerly of Indiana Harbor, has let the contract for an unusually fine store and hotel building to be located at the corner of Block and Watling streets.' The building will cost $7.B00 exclusive of furnlehings and fixtures. It will be three stories in height and contain all modern equipment and excellent trim throughout. Mr. Eisler used to be In the grocery End market business on Pennsylvania avenue, but is now in the wholesale liquor business In the steel city. It Is understood that he Intends to undertake personal management of the business.

THROAT SLICED IN QUARREL OVER GIRL Jealousy Is believed to have prompted an attack made last night on Dominic Prghel, aged 33, an Italian living at 4925 Olcott avenue. East Chicago. Prghel's throat was cut from tne adam' apple to the left ear and he was taken to St. Margaret's hospital unconscious. At the hospital the name of his assailant has not been learned.

Icicles formed on the men's eyebrows, blinding them and adding to toe adnger of their work, he continued. "Do you mean you want three shifts of eight hours each in the twenty-four hours?" he was asked. "Yes," P.eid replied.

OLIVER FORSYTH AND WORKS BOH AGREE

Informed that his holdings in Robertsdale would be cut off from water and sewage facilities by the new 3Rinch main now in process of construction, Oliver O. Forsyth, the rich land owner, visited the hoard of works in session at the city hall today to learn its j'lans. Mr. Forsyth was told that the new main will cut off the old sewer stubs but tnat the city would construct a branch sewer on the west eide of Lrfike avenue, in return for a perpetual easement to lay the 36-inch water main through his acres. This agreement was made, thereby benefitting both parties. It would have been expensive for the city to construct its water main around instead of through the Forsyth land which will in the near future be a con

tinuation of Lake avenue. The new 36-inch main has been laid

under the tracks and the work is progressing southward towards Indianapolis avenue. The easement to lay the main on Forsyth's private property eliminates toe delay that would have Kaon neressarv had the matter been

taken care of through condemnation i

proceedings.
