M ANGLE TO BRIBERY

THREE HELD IN "DUEL" MURDER

-New coloring was added to the'

oary icra scandal this morning-

when the startling- information was j learned that George' Pavlch, soft!

drink jarlor operator whom government dry agents claim signed an affidavit against Attom- B. A. Luca?

enraging- him, together with Judge

Dunn with conspiracy, signed a pa

ver aucr Deing misled that It was

a petition for beer and light wines. The bearer of the Taper or affidavit, was no other than Attorney'

Phillip Ukman. a meraber of the gov!

ernment dry forces who was arre.t-j ed night before last after accept-j in?r a three hundred dollar brllie and tore 'jp a fake warrant for the

arrest of asouth side hotel keeper. I

Police officials, were

this morning when Pavlch came to the -Gary police station with the inforrr.aton that he had iben tricked by Ukman in signing the jpaper. lie told a very conectlng story and he made sworn statements to report

ers.

I thought the paper was a petition for titer and light wines and did not know that anything was wrong- until I saw the papers last night." "I cannot read," 'he said "but fricnis of mine told me what I had done." "Ukman had another man with him who I have ne-ver seen before and after I sisn the paper he also put his name down." He also stated that Attorney Lucas had never represented him in the two liquor cases in the police court. Recorc's j-'.-iow that for the first offense he served a thirty day Jail sentence and for the second offense was given a fine and a suspended jail eentnce by Special Jutlge Xarcovich.

forts ha ve ben made to get 'bond for him. but up to this noon, no one had appeared with the required amount of $2,000 each for the two charges of bribery and forgery. When arrested Ukman told reporters that Morgan would get him out of the trouble, b-ut so far Mr. Morgan has dons nothing to c'htain his release

with the exception of asking what

tr-ie bond would he the night of his

t.rrest. Reporters and police offic

ials dug up other startling infor

mation regarding Ukman's shake down methods. The sworn statement given by Pa-vi-ch reads as follows: STATCUE.VT OK GEORGE PAVICH My name is Georgo Pavich. I run a soft drink parlor at 10S8 Jefferson st., Gary, Indiana. One day, during the latter part of July, Philip Ukman came down to my rilace of business and showed me a sheet of paper, about 8 inchos long and 3 inches wide, telling me Tie would show me the names of lots of business men anl proprietors of soft drink parlors who had signed their names to this paper, which was a petition o get light wines and beers He said, "See all those names on there. Put your name on there, too." I said, "If all those men put their names there, put mine, too." So he wrote my name in there with a pencil. About a day or two later, Ukman came around again with a typewritten sheet of ppr. As I cannot read, he read the paper to me in the Servian language. He said, "This is the paper that you should f-ijn to get the light wine and beer. Every man bar to sign that kind of paper. " He said every man would have to sign and send that paper to Washington. When I heard him talk like that, I signed my name with ink to the paper. After that, when we were through he said. "I read in the paper you was arrested for moonshine." I said. "Yes." He said. "How much did you pay?" I s.id, "You .was down in the court the same day. You hear dabout it" He said, "All fight." and walked away. "I didn't know what that meant until the other evening, when a fellow rf-ad a newspaper to me. He naif", "iS'.-e what th-r say in the Pi. per." He. explained it to me, and 1 say. "I come right down and find out what is the matter." I rover appeared before the Federal officers in Hammond. That was the first time I ever saw Ukman, and I have never seen or talked to I

him since. The second time m rar.ip to see me, there was another n-an with him whom I did not know. He signed his name underneath mine on the paper which I s!sne. Sworn to by George Pavich.

ADVANCE

AN ACT OF WAR PAItlS. Sept. 21. General Sir Charles Harrington, British commander in the Near EJast, made formal announcement t Constantinople that England will consider it an act of war if the Turkish nationalists advance into the neutral zone along the Turkish straits, said a Constantinople dipatch to LInformatif.n this afternoon.

INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVl! SOUTH HKSLi, lni., Sept. ;a. The pathetic recital of Mrs. Augusta Tiernan, the woman scorned, and the calm, deliberate story of her husband. Professor John P. Tiernan of Notre Dame University, in seeking to prove that Harry Poulin is the father of the "love baby" born to Mrs. Tiernan last November, had changed the plans of the defense in the court action now proceeding today. Originally it was the plan of fh; defense to introduce no evidence at the preliminary hearing. Today, however, it was learned, counsel for Poulin will introduce testimony to rebut and refute the sensational mass of evidence pllod up by the woman who says sho was unfaithful, and the man w.io declare? tlat for months he was duped Into believing that the child born to h;s wife was his own. Professor Tiernan. who was on the stand all of yetorday, was to continue his story toflav. a tale

shameful deceit which finalK- stood j fo-th in all it"; scarlet coloring wh n j

m !. lcrnan, spurn jj ny ikt lover, c nfesed the parntae of h-r baby. He had already admittel on the fl ii'l that he was completely duped as to the alleged clandertln-! love effair between his wife and Poulin.

When as the says she was keeping i her tyrst with Poulin durin? the months of February and March of j

I last year, Tiernan said he believed

she was attending Lenten services in the church, j And when the November baby j came, Tiernan said he call-?! to P.m- j

lin on the street and told him of the good news. "I told him we had a baby." n testified. "He (Poulin) rjulckly

ed me whether it was a. boy or girl. I stated 'It is a boy!." "Did he congratulate you?" "No, he lid not." After the confession of his w'fe in January last that Poujln was the f.-ither of her child, Tiernan testified he met Poulin at the postoffice and there confronted him with his knowledge . "I said. 'Harry, Guss has told me everything." "And .he raid, 'Yes; it's all true, but let's be friends.' "I said, 'No, we will always be bitter enemies." "Then he said, 'Well, what w;'.l you take to settle the case?" "And I said, "Well, I don t know what the expenses will be, but it will amount to severil hundred dollars." "Then he said, 'All right, but let's keep it quiet'." The expenses, Tiernan explained, were for his wife's- hospital bills and care. "I also told him,'" Tiernan continued, "he would have to assume the responsibility and obligation mat his act had placed on his shoulders." It was believed as court opened this morning that the prosecution's side of the hearing would be completed late today. Two witnesses alleged to have accompanied Mrs. Tiernan and Toulln on automobile rides during the early days of their alleged love romance were to be called after Professor Tiernan leaves the stand. Whether or not Poulin himself will take the stand was undecided, it was stated today. If Judge Chester Ducomb holds Poulin at the conclusion of the present hearing, the case will go before the circuit court of the district.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: lihave a gentleman friend in another city. We have known each other for three months. He has been here to see me twice. Last time he came two weeks ago. He asked me how I would like to come to see him and his folks, but he didn't set any date. I have only heard from him once. Would ft be proper for me to remind him of it? I think the world of him. Another thing, his wife is dead and he has two grown sons. He hasn't asked me to marry him, Imt he said last time he was nere we are in no hurry. What does he mean by that? AUBURN HAIR. Do not remind the man that he asked you to visit in his home. If you do, he will think you are too eager and running after him. I do not know what he meant by saying there was no hurry. Do not expect marriage unless he makes it very clear that that is what he means. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am sixteen years old and I am awfully bashful. I cannot look nor talk to anyone without blushing. The older I grow the more I blush. Will you please tell me how I can pet rid of it? BLOND Y. Do not humor yourself by staying away from the company of ether psop'e. Whenever the opportunity presents itseif, attend parties and other social activities where you will meet people. As you become interested in others and accustomed to their company, you will forget yourself and will blush less readily. If, however, you stay at home because of lack of confidence in yourself you will grow more and more bashful. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl sixteen years old, a sophomore in high school. I am crazy about the boys and they seem to be crazy about me, but they get over it sa eoon whil I still go on liking

them. I don't see why they don't care any more for me. I do almost anything they want me to. I enjoy dancing and dance well. This is what puzzles me. ' While the girls don't seem to be jealous of me I have very few who want to be friends. ' EDNA MAY. You are probably too free with boys and let them see how deeply they interest you. Keep them guessing a little more end they will like you the better for it. Of course if you permit them to make love to you as soon and whenever they wish, they will quickly tire of you and look for some one else to interest them for the time being. Girls probably do not care for you because you are not genuinely interested in them. They" can feel something superficial in your friendship and realize that you care more for boys. Try to check your extreme liking for boys and to cultivate a deeper interest in girls. I am sure that if you really' make an effort you will not want for girl friends. v Dear Mrs. Thompson: I would like to ask you a qusstion. My mother is dead and I have no sisters or aunts to ask. I am engaged, bet we have not announced it yet, as it is to be a long engagement. He has taken me to his home a number of times and I just worship his mother, but don't understand her very well. Would it be unconventional to give her a birthday present? SPRINGTIME. , I think it would be just the thing to give your nance's mother a little birthday gift. Make your offering simple two or three dainty, linen handkerchiefs, for instance. Do not make a goddess of her, my dear, because after all she is human and if you worship her too deeply you may be disappointed later on when you rind she has faults just like all other humans.
