The police were evidently convinced that these men knew something1 about the affair. Shaw waa in i. hicago yesterday. lie was married to the woman who thought that she was his wife when he married Bessie Knnis, manicurist, whose friendship for Sneed caused his death and the iniprisonmwtit of her husband. She later divorced Shaw. There has evidently been no effort to clear up the mystery of McOurry's doiith by questioning the man who is 1 llevtd to know something of the afla:r. lie might be able to throw some light on the mystery.

C1IAS. LEO AH KIN Chas. Leo Arkin of Hammond, has caught the vision of hi? things while .-o;-v;r.s: his country both here and overseas. When he was mustered out of erv;ce he inured the Northern Illinois College of Ophthalmology and Otology, taking the. complete course and learning the degree of Doctor of Op

tometry. He i thought to be the I

HEED IRE LIGHT OR LESS SPOONING

Harrison Park Mecca For . Young People Who Go to Great Lengths. Hammond should bo one of the most popular summer resorts in the region, for there ia one very great advantage to staying jn this city during the hot months. Harrison park. Mecca -lor spooners, ia tKscorrvn? Increasingly popular this season, and a stream of couples may bo seen entering the grounds from seven o'clock on. Xone of them com out until late, however. "Last night a reporter toured the park in search cf the reason. After a- long walk covering the entire ground from one end to the other, and after seeing several couples and hearing many more, he came to the conculsion that the lack of lights had tho moat to do with it. There la nothing to it. Tho park is a find for the lovers. Twenty steps from the street, and it Is

as dark as a pocket. If one is care- j less about walking in the dark, there is almost a certainty of barking jour i shins against a bench or of stepping ! on some loving couple. There is only i

ono safe and sane course to pursue. Pick your own. half acre and park with the others. A hard working and conscientious cop. walking as fast as he can, and using up The interest on the police pension fund in batteries for his flash light, might succeed in preserving or-de-r fairly well. It sure is a hard jcb. The hc-avy lovers have the monopoly there, nevertheless. "Why not? The park ia tho coolest place in town. It would bo Just as cool with a few well placed lights, however. It is too hot to make love in the parlor at this Hcason of the year. evidently. but nevertheless such a course would be a lot more elevating for our citizenry. Those who use the park for innocent

enjoyment at nitrht must of necessity get an awful shock. There is one other kick to be registered. If the lovers must use our ptirk if they 'nurst monopolize tho trees and flowers why In heaven's

name don't they wait until they get into the friendly shadows. Arms about each other, they stroll llarrisonward. advertising their destination as completely as would a full column spread. It would be better to have tho lights, iiut if we can't have them, a little of this promiscuity might be eliminated.

SHAW IN CHICAGO MYSTERY STILL VEILED Marriage of Granville Shaw Recalls Mysterious Murder of R. M. Curry. Out of the complicated story of Robert McCurry, which culminated in his death on a lonely road near Highland last April, the name of Granville Shaw figures several tlmos.
