It 1 believed that the unemployment rueslon la largely responsible for the Increase of crime in tho past few days. Many of those who have been arrested have been found to he penniless and without a place to sleep. Tihere la a noticeable Increase in the number of applicants applying- for lodging1, while reeoaurant keepers report a large number of both men and women asking: for food.

At the Intersection of "Whiting and Robertsds.le the machines were met by one of the Motor Follce of Whiting- and escorted through the "Whiting Park and then to the plant of the Standard Oil Co. Considerable discussion was to be heard from the solons, on the immense size of the latter plant. Senator Russell B. Harrison of Indianapolis, riding in one of the machines caused much laughter, when he. stated that he was. afraid to ride in an automobile since the time three of his former friends were killed in an auto, of which the Senator was a passenger. When told, however, that he was riding: with the Coroner, the Senator was very much relieved. I'ontinuinp on their journey. the Kiicsts were met at East Chicago by the chief of police who escorted thern to the plant of the Interstate Iron and Steel company, Hubbard Steel Foundries, Limbert Company, Republic Iron and Steel, Famous ManufacturingCompany, Metal ard Thermit Corporation, International Lead Works, Grasselli Chemicil. U. S. S. Lead RefiningCompany and thence to Kennedy avenue passing: the plants of th" Own Engineering Company and the Harbison-Walker ReXrartorios. The solons then continue.! the:;r trip through the Mark sub-division, passing the plants of the Standard Forging Company and tho American Steel Foundries, and then continuing a'ong Mioiusran avenue to the plant r f th Inland St-rl

Company and the Steel and Tube company. Owing to the heavy tog. only a brief outline of the two plants could be seen. CEMENT PLAM Sl'ILPlUSES VISITORS. Upon leaving Indiana Harbor, th machines, over 100 in number, proceeded o the plant of the Universal Portland Cement Company at liuffington, where they 'were met by one of the company u-.achiives and escorted through the plant. Here the visttors were enabled to sec the process used in the manufacture of cement, gazing in wonder aX th,: -immense hoppers in the monstr-yi plant. LEAVE I'On GARY. The carVan after leaving the Bufflngton ilant came back to Indiana Harbor,, along Cedar street to Guthrie and thence to Michigan avenue to Kennedy avenue, to Chicago avenue, pa.?xng the plant of the Oeneral American Car Corporation, the Cudahy Parking Company and thence to 9 1 li avenue.

fl-wo mutor.-ycic police, from Gary, who escorted tho visitors to the plant of the American Bridge and the American Sheet and Tin Plate company, considered one cf the largest in the world. mE AT ( (IMMEatlAIi CH II. After completing the tour of the cbove two plants, the visitors were taken to the club rooms of the Gary Commercial club, where a heaitv repast had been prepared for them. Music helped the honored guests to devour their food in much comfort. Maor .Hodges gave a few brief remarks while the guests were dining, welcoming the solons to the city of Gary. Following the luncheon, the guests were again loaded in machines and taken to the plant of the Indiana, Steel company, considered one of thlargest steel plants in the world. Hero they were loaded into a special train, donated through the courtesy of the general superintendent of the plant. "W. P. Gleason. This trip, which conrumed over two hours, enabled the honored guests, to view one of the most interesting things that probably they will never have the opportunity . f again seeing. The honored guests were first shown the workings of the coko ovens, then on to the blast furnaces, open hearth departments, wheel department and then to the rail department. They also passed through thi large immense power house, and there were shown how the vast plant is supplied with p.iwer. Owing to the lateness cf the hour, the trip to the rod mill waa post poned. AT HAMMOND COUNTRY CLUB Following the inspection of the sWt plant, the machines were turned in the direction of Hammond and the Hammond Country club, where supper had teen prepared. There another hearty meal was enjoyed; after which dancing held the balance of the evening. One of the most Interesting points In the evening's festivities occurred when A. M. Turner, president of the First National bank, requested the solons and guests of the house to stand In honor of Indiana's first woman member of the legislature, Mrs. Julia D. Nelson of Muncie, Ind. Mrs. Nelson in a few brief words thanked the members of the legislature for their kind consideration and for their treatment of the first woman legislaturer !n the house and requested that should any mistakes occur, that tho members of the legislature and the public In general, overlook this point, as there would be many protests made should a mistake occur on her part, she being the first woman voter of Indiana to be elected to a state office.

Every Druggist in'U. S. Instructed to Refund Price While You Wait at Counter if Relief Does Not dome Within Two Minutes. Delightful Taste, Immediate Relief, Quick Warm-Up. The sensation of the year tn the drug trade is Aspironal. the two .minute cold and codgh reliever, authoritatively guaranteed by the laboratories; tested, approved and most enthusiastically endorsed by the highest authorities, and proclaimed by the common people as ten times as quick and effective as whiskey, rock and rye. or any other cold and couch remedy they have ever tried. All drug stores are new suppli-aJ with the wonderful new elixir, so all you have to do to get rid of that cold Is to step into the nearest drug store, hand the clerk half a dollar for a bottle of Aspironal and tell him to serve you two traspoonfuls with four teaspoonfuls of water in a glass. With your watch In your hand, take the drink at one swallow and call for your money back in two minutes if yorj cannot feel your cold fading away like a dream within the time limit. Don't be bashful, for all druggists invite you and expect you to try it. Everybody's doing it. When your cold or cough is relieved, take the remainder of the bottle home to your wife an. U babies, for Aspironal IS by far the safest and most effective, me easiest to take and the most agreeable cold and cough remedy for Infant and children. Adv. Dr.RobtJ.
