Otherwise Georgre would be dead with a bullet 1 hole through his heart and Man Speehar of AVest Hammond woulu bo facing a murder charfe. Speehar Is under bond to appear In the West Hammond police t'ourt next Monday to a charge of shooting with intent to kill. Yesterday afternoon Speehar was in a saloon at 101 Plummer ave. An old man came up to the bar and engagid In conversation Vlth him. While they were talking Mrs. Speeher entered and told her husband to come home because dinner was ready. As she left the saloon the old man not knowing she was Speehar's wife, made & remark about her which Ppeehar took as an insult. He struck the old man. Then he called Mrs. Speehar back and told her about it. Mrs. Speehar proceeded to slap the face of her aged traducer. George Schuls and two compan-. Ions from Cast Hammond witnessed the affair.

Ppeehar said little but went home. ile procured a revolver and started back to the saloon. On the sidewalk he encountered Schuls and his friends. t Without a word he raised the gun and fired, Schuls felt a thump on his left breast. He thought Speehar was firing blank cartridges to scare him. "Now et a move on. Beat It," ordered Speehar. Schuls and his friends retreated. Speehar pocketed his gun and returned home. Then Schuls took an inventory. He found his gold watch battored into Junk. In the pocket with it was a flattened 32 calibre lead bullet. The bullet had struck the watch directly over his heart. Speehar was arrested on complaint of Schuls but was 'able to furnish bond. OUR OLD FRIEND FOR PARTHENON Popular Hammond Man Will Do the Great Box Mystery. Tears ago, let's te charitable and iay eight years ago, the whole town I was talking about a bet that Lawrenca Hoffman, the proprietor cf a bs,tardashr sn SWe street, had ma!,B with another merchant. TJ win tno et LawTence had to escape from a nailed dry goods box. The etage of the Orpheum was tsreed upon and Lawrence did his stunt. The box was examined by a committee of business men and after Lawrence saueezed Into it the lid was r.alled down by the members of the committee. Then the box was securely roped from stem to stern and turned upside dawn so that Lawrence would be standing on his head. The committee stood In a complete circle about three feet from the box and a single sheet was spread over the box. Tho orchestra began to play softly and In exactly thirty minutes Hoffman was out of the box. It was some stunt. Lawrence never told anyone how he did it and to this day his friends are. as much mystified as they were then. Lawrence Is somewhat older now, nearer forty than thirty, perhaps. The other day George Kus.smaul chided him about it. "You're getting too old for that box stunt. Lawrence," he said. "Xot a bit of.lt,' declared Lawrence. The conversation reached the ears of Manager Craldon of the Parthenon and as a result Hoffman Is to do hla great box stunt on the stage of that theater, matinee and night, Friday, rec. 1. The box will be supplied by a local dry goods store and it will be on exhibition in the lobby up to the time it must be rarri5d on the stage. When the box is brought on the stage people from the audience will be asked to examine it. Hoffman doesn't guarantee that he can do the trick. He merely says that he will try and that he - feels confident that he can escape from th box. Since he left the retail business In TTs.rr.mond, Mr. .Hoffman ha cuRared In the iimusemenr business and is the owner of rides and other attractions playing the fctate and county affairs. spends the winter months, in Hammond and baa just closed a very successful season.

LAKii CO. JEWS TO HEAR NOTED LECTURER NOV. 23

V in. ? V S. LEV IX Bhmarya Levin, Jewish leader of International standing, and regard-! ed as the most gifted orator in the j movement for the restoration of I'al ' eatlne, will be the principal speaker! at a mass meeting of the Lake Co. Jews in the Hammond Synagogue, Thursday evening, Nov. 23rd. In the last year Dr. Levin visited Jewish Communities In different parts of the world and brought them the message of the new Jewish life that is beginning to blosfom in Palestine. In an Interview when Dr. Levin was asked whether the change In British politics would affect the British policy In Palestine, Dr, Levin said: "I will say to tcu frankly that I am much more Interested in the Jewish policy In Palestine than in the British policy there. Not that I think the British are in Palestine because of a caprice of Lloyd George, or a noble sentiment of Balfour, or, as some polite antl-ilonlsts in England of recently said, because of tie fnscinatlng manners of Dr. Welzmann. I believe the British and the Jews are In Palestine together because of mutual Interests of the most substantial character. It is unnecessary for the Jews to worry as to the willingness or the ability of the British to defend thtir Interest in Palestine. It the Jews exert themselves to defend their own. And when I use the word 'defend.' I imply nothing ag&resdve of militaristic, we Jews mast defend our interests there with colonies In town, in schools and unlversl ties, In a word, with civilization . " He Works Besides Traveling Hammond Doctor Believes In the Old Law About Idle Hands Abroad As At Home. Ir. R; O. OstrowEkl. of Hammond. who has been touring Ejrope for several months, isn't satisfied unless he Is doing something. It doesn't 6uit him to just travel from one place to another taking In th sights. Hence It was not much of a surprise when a letter was received by the medical department of the University of Warsaw In Pland. He Is acting as assistant to Prof. Gluzlnskl at the unlversitj. "In the medical department." writes Er. Ostrowskl, "we have 900 students. Out of these 433 are Jews. Many Jewish boys are studying English. They keep me busy answering questions about the United State, It seems thet onehalf of the population of Europe would emigrate to the States if we let' them do it." . Dr. Ostrowskl was guest of honor at the ceremonies held October 23 by the Polish-American Society, when a monument of gratitude ' to the United States was unveiled in the Hoover Garden at Warsaw. "We have in Warsaw a branch of the Polish-American Chamber of Commerce,' he says, "I have met all of the leading Americans in Poland in this organization. On October 23 they had a beautiful ceremony, the unveiling of the Mon ument of Gratitude to the United States of America, I had the honor to sit together with representatives of our government and other foreign representatives in Poland. After the church services Mr. Gibson, ambassador of the United States, accepted the monument in the name of bis country. He made a speech, but for Home reason, spoke In French. People were a little disappointed as they expected him to speak in English. In the evening I attended a gala performance at the Grand Theater. American diplomatio officials and the National Polish government official a were present. The theater was decorated in American flails, and there was a Goddess of Liberty on the stage. "I had the feeling of being in Hammond, Ind., attending the fathers' and sons' banquet. Even the Boy bcouts were present with American flags, but Mr. Scott was misslns.

CALUMET REGION'S PAYROLL NINTY MILLIONS ANNUALLY

Forty-four thousand eight hundred and eighty-four men are working in the industries and on the railroads in Hammond, Whiting. East Chicago-Indiana Harbor and Gary, according to information secured by a Times reporter in a survey of the region. In round figures the annual payroll is $90,000 030, or mere than $2,000 per year for each man. The average rate of pay is slightly higher in Whiting and Hammond than in East Chicago and Gary. This is due to the fact that the railroad wages in Hammond and the oil company wages in Whiting are somewhat higher than the pay in the steel induttry at present. The total payroll of the region has doubled in the last twelve months. One surprising feature is that nearly as many men are employed in Whting as in Hammond. The answer is that thousands of people living in Hammond are employed in East Chicago, Indiana Harbor and Whiting. The figures obtained by the reporter follow: Number of Men Employed. Monthly Payroll. Gary 13,311 $2218.500 East Chicago-Indiana Harbor ....... 1 9,560 3.200.000 Hammond 6,073 1,006,260 Whiting 5,940 1,003.950 Total .-...44.884 $7,428,710

Geor rget today had ciron h. ona something to think about seriously. TTi earning that chapter two of oria war Is plotted in Germany with Russia snd Turkey as uorapiices went round the earth wherever flr.graph wire, cable and courier could carry It. ' The thousands who last night heard the 'Tiger" say ln the Metropolitan opera house: "They are preparing war again and are rraking cannon by the hundreds," straightened their heads and recognized what had been forecast that this was the r.iost significant speech of Clemrncea.u'8 career. The "Tiger" pictured the war he fears as one more horrible than the one just concluded because it would be a flood of Bolshevism and Mohammedisirr with its whirlpools and currents directed by Germans all over the globe. He sa.d LudcndorfT and Hindenburg were plotting a civil war to put out the German democracy so the junkers might again take command and officer the masses of Russians and Turks. For an hour and thirty-one minutes there was nothing but the steady indictment by the "Tiger." His lips trembled and he struck savagely at the table top when he cried: "The abyss behind is dark and deep." There was n- resentment manifest in the faces that looked up at him when Clemenceau charged that the United States had made promise? and then had left the field without seeing them fulfilled. "I am not going to ask you for money," he said. "You have too much. I want something more than that something- rrore valuable. I want yourself, your heart and su'l."

H FELTON First Woman Senator in American History. ' (Written for the International New. Service. Copyrighted, 192' by International New. Service)' WASHINGTON. Nov. 22.-Thi, l. a grandmother's blessing on everybody for the honor given m d American women when I sat for a single day as a member of the United States senate. My chief joy 8 tnat tn9B(S bIeJ)sed women of America will receive the greatest benefit. It was all so plea,, antly arranged and I .urely have a heart full of appreciation, first, for the kindness of the gentlemen from Georgia, and, secondly, for all the gentlemen of the senate. I wasn't at all excited. I have lived so long that I try to hold mvself steady when tho crisis is "a-comlng" and I tried terribly hard to hold my bearing while I was In the senate. The oath did not Jar me much. I heard It first, you see way back yonder In 1S75 when my husband first served In congress. Then we had giants in public service. I want to think a little more to know exactly how I do feel about being the nation's first woman senator. I don't feel any different yet and the thing that brings me most pleasure Is the honor given to all womankind. While I was ln the senate chamber, I wasn't a bit scared. I would even have asked Mr. Cummins (president pro tern) for his seat as far as nerve Is concerned. After it -was all over. I felt a little faint for I'm getting old and It was a wee to much for me. If they had disputed tny seat I would cave argued wuh them. I had a speech ready and I would have made it some way. But there was no trouble, thanks to all the kind gentlemen. They were as chiv. alrous as "when knighthood was in flower. In the house I was given a cheer before they cheered the president. I did not know H at first but Senatpr Harris (Democrat) of George said It all was for me. That made me ' tappy, too. I ; was much pleased with the president's sreeeh. I heartily agree with him about getting rid of our old ships and stopping the loss of 150.000,000 a year. I'm for the pres ident's shipping Ideas. When I got back to the senate again, I had the prompting of a speech in my mind. But I felt a little faint fend hungry, too, so I had to go down to the senate restaurant for something to eat. While down there, the senate adjourned and I missed my chance to get ia a speech. I would hay said something pleasant for I wanted to thank everybody for their kindness to an old grandmother. I wanted to men tion a cartoon I saw during the campaign. It was ln a San Antonio. Texas, paper. It represented the senate in res-don with all the boys sitting around and an old lady standing in the door. There was srme favor cf me ln her and shs came ln without a card. The senate was in a dilemma. The headline read, "Will they ask the lady to take a chair?" I wanted to tell them about that. "I won't go back to make a speech because It's Mr. George's (her successor) time now. It is his seat now, but I had a breezy time whUs I was ln it. I think my havtne been admitted to the senate was a milestone for women end no one can tell when the unexpected will happen again. The tide is setting strongly toward better treatment of women all around. If women only realize ths dignity of opportunity which they now have ln politics, they will go forward. Especially will they help their children. My greatest happiness today comes from the overflow of happiness ln others. My mission is finished. I have spent enough tirns here and now I've go', to go home and rest. God bless you all. ST. MARY'S SISTER DIES OF INJURIES INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICEI TEKKE HALTE, lud.. Nov. -J.
