WATCH OUT,

GOSHEN FOR

THIS CROWD! Special. To The Times GOSHEN, IND., Nov. 29. This City haa received advance information that territory adjacent has been selected for a raid by an irresponsible bunch of wild hunters from East Chicago on Saturday and Sunday of this week and notices are being sent out to farmers south of here to round up all of their live stock, barricade their windows, coop up all barnyard fowl, post the proper notices and see that all barbed wire entanglements are in good repair in preparation for the visitors. One circumstance, however, that looks suspicious and for which there has thus far been found no plausible explanation is that a prominent architect from that Lake county city, whose' name is said to be Morris or something like that is here today making the rounds of all markets and buying up all the rabbits that are available. It is not common belief here however that Mr. Morris is planning to put anything cer on his East Chicago friends. The local game warden has been informed of this proposed raid and has been given the following names of the persons who are said to be in the approaching party: H. M. Cawhen, C. K. Hallace. Zepher Campwell. Joe Lunsing and George P. Fulst. This warden informs us that the name Cawhen sounds like the name of the chap that was one of an invading party a year ago but who went home in disgrace because he carried in his game sack nothing but the remains of a lean, scrawny, woodpecker. He admits, however, that the names were received over the phone and that he may be mistaken. The party will be reminded that according to law they cannot bag over fifteen quails each. A single ruffled feather over this number will subject them to immediate arrest, even if they do get manhandled by irate farmers and torn on barbed wire. Friends of the members of the above parties in East Chicago should be advised that one Yucatan Richhard is secretary of the bunch and Is authorized to take advance orders for game. It is said that they chose a secretary because they knew that just as soon as East Chicago knew that they were going hunting, they would be just pestered to death for requests for quails, rabbits and other game. Mr. Yucatan will fill only such orders as are filled in advance and only in the order in which they are made to appear on his books. It is believed that an extra quarter or two might be considered an inducement for preference on this list. This party, it has been decided by a local vigilance committee, cannot remain in the county over twenty four hours and must remain sober during that time. , ELKS TO HOLD LODGE OF SORROW At the McKinley auditorium. East Chicago, at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon, the East Chicago Elks, B. P. O. E. No. 981, will hold their annual memorial service to which the public is cordially invited.
