TEACHER ADMITS GAMBLING.
Arthur Fendig. of Rensselaer,, on Trial
Before State superintendent Cotton.

The surprise in the Fendig hearing
came Friday when the cross -examina-
tion took Witness Fendig into hand,
and he wilted entirely. admitted that
ne had been a frequenter Of the Rosen-
baum gambling room up to the middle
of August, and that he had never lost
or Won more than twenty five dollars
at any one sitting. He apparently could
not get over the questions Of the prose-
cution without perjuring himself, and
he made a clean sweep of the charge
that resulted in the action of the super
intendent
State School Superintendent Cotton

Hammond Women Organize
Club for Serious Study of
Homely Occupations.
MEMBERSHIP SLINITED
Cooking Feature-0wing to Kitchen
Limitations Only Twelve
Women May Join.

The club that was organized at the
home of Mrs. Andrew QuigIey. AZ War
ren street, Thursday night for the pur-
pose of studying domestic arts and
sciences as briefly outlined in the TIMES
social columns. is interesting. Mrs.
Andrew Quigley. Mrs. Edward Ames
and Mrs Mary Holm were the organ
izers and although the membership is
to be limited to twelve members on
| account of the difficulty in accommo-
dating a larger number in the average
kitchen, the members of the original
club will encourage their friends to
start other "centers,' as they call them,
and it is hoped that the interest in the
work will spread to all parts of the
city
The course of instruction will be the
same as in the Chicago School of Arts
and Sciences, which is affiliated with
the Armour institute and has as it's
patronesses such well known women
as Mrs. Phillip d. Armour, its honorary
| president Mrs. William Penn Nixon.
Mrs. George L. Harvey Mrs Francis
Farwen and dozen other of Chica go's
leading society women.
This is the first time a club has
been organized In Hammond for the
study of this most important subject.
although the Woman's club did take
up the matter some time ago and dis
cuss it at several of its sessions.
The aim of this club is not merely
to impart the technical ckill and knowl-
edge so desirable to those who Guide
the home. but to train women to d
broad scientific view of the whole
range of subjects allied to the proper
management of the home.
The amount of tuition that is charg-
ed and the difficulty that the members
would have in attending the classes in
| Chicago makes it impossible for them
to take the work at the Armour insti-
tute and so the members have adopted
! the plan of having Mrs. ". Il. Bridge
| attend each one of the lectures and by
getting notes and the necessary read
ing matter, redemonstrate the lectures
before the ladies here.
There is a wide range of subjects
| that are included in the study of do
mestic arts and sciences. among them
being courses in cooking, millinery,
sewing. home making. home nursing
and home economics.
The course that will be taken up by
the club this year will be that in cook
cry and will include a cooks course.
serving course invalid cookery course
and chafng dish lectures. There viii
be three terms of ten lessons each this
year.
The first meeting was a very sue
| cessful one and the following are the
names of the twelve members who
| compose the club: Mrs. Andrew Quiug-
ley. Mrs. Edward Ames, Mrs. Mary L
Woods. DR.. Eleanor ScuIl. Mrs. d. c.
Atkinson, Mrs. Mary Holm, Miss Alice
Holm. Mrs. John II. Gillett. Mrs. Rob
ert ellis. Mrs. ". f. Bridge. Mrs Dan
Moran and Mrs. George B. Sheerer.

INDIANA THREATENED WITH
ANOTHER INSURANCE. REPORT.
This May Not However R&aeh HanIy
Until Next Week and the Governor

Days.
Especial to Lake County Times.)

Indianapolis, Oct. 1S.-The report of
the committee that has been at work
IN the State Auditors aslee seeneerning
the insurance mpanies-life-~of this
State will probably be made some time
next week The committee has now
finished the collecting of data, and the
work of compilation has occupied all OF
this present week. 1t is understood
that this is not all done as yet and
that the report will probably not reach
the hands of Governor Hanly until
some time next week The governor
will then keep it few days before
giving it out.
The report win be voluminous, it is
understood, and contain all facts and
figures available concerning each of
the thirteen ompanies-including ac-
counts of money paid out in special
contracts, in operating expenses, in
organization expenses and in premiums.
1t is stated that some of the companies
will be very heavily scored for their
large managing and operating eX-
penses; others will escape with slight
censure, and one or two will be al
most directly praised, according to the
advanced reports.
The report will probably comprise
over 800 typewritten pages; contain
resumes of each company, and certain
recommendations that the next legisla
ture will be called upon to follow in
making some laws. They were some
what foreshadowed in the speech of
Governor Hanlv at Upton, and it is
known that this report Will be used by
the Republicans as campaign material
the argument being that the Repub-
licans must be permitted to keep in
power so that they may complete the
work that has already been begun.

Jack Haverty, Engineer and
Emil Bossard, Fireman,
Meet Tragic Death.
Rescuers Work Several Hours Before
Bodies of Victims are Recov-
cred from Debris.

Jack Haverty, engineer on the Chi
caso Junction. and his fireman, Emil
Bossard, both of this city, were killed
in railroad wreck yesterday evening
at Chicago Ridge, between Blue Island
and Franklin Park. The engine was
derailed and lay in the ditch during the
whole night. The remains of the two
employees could not be removed until
after several hours of hard work. Hav-
erty was pinioned in his seat by the
throttle that he had regulated for
years. Bossard lay under the engine,
where hot water, escaping steam and
burning cinders poured onto him.
The inquest began at : o'clock this
afternoon at Blue Island. 1t was learned
last night that the fatal accident hap
pened because of the derail being open.
Haverty, who is the oldest engineer on
the road. left his home yesterday morn
ing TO begin the meat run. 1t was
while he was on his way home in the
evening, near 6 o'clock, that he passed
through Chicago Ridge. One side of
the story Is to the effect that he had
received the semaphore target signal
to pass but that it was later taken
away from him when the operator saw
a Wabash train approach.
A seeond story is to the effect that
the meat train followed closely a
freight. which had received the target,
and Engineer Haverty, thinking it
would be given to him also, continued
to follow the first train, and, conse-
quently found himself in danger when
the derail was opened. The true cause
viii probably be established at the
coroner's inquest this afternoon.
The friends of Haverty remembered
this morning OF hearing him tell of a
narrow ecsape that he had about a
year ago at the same place and with
the same towerman.
Emil Bossard. the fireman had been
firing for Haverty for only a short
time, this being his first route on which
he worked as a regular. He was de-
lighted with his work, especially since
it was a regular run and in company
with Haverty.
Because of unlocked for circum-
stances Bossard leaves a mourning fan
Gee instead of a bride on her honey
moon. Emil Bossard and Miss Anna
thinner. of 407 State street, were to be
married last August, but postponed
their wedding until November.
The remains OF the two men will be
brought to Hammond this afternoon
after the inquest is over.
Both Haverty and Bossard are mem
bers Of the brotherhood of American
Locomotive Engineers and Firemen.
Haverty, who is 40 years old, has lived
here for years and leaves a widow at
AZ Clinton street. Bossard is % years
old and lived with his parents Mr.. and
Mrs Rudolph Bossard. $50 Wolter

through Streets.

Bare headed and bare footed, clad
only in his undershirt and pair of
misht overalls, William Hogan of Roby
was marched through Hammond streets
early this morning between two police
men. who captured him on State street
Hogan was at St. Margaret's hospi-
tai last night ostensibly as a typhoid
fever patient but early this morning
violent Gelerium tremens symptoms de-
veloped from the effects of EIogan's too
free INDULGENCE il, the use of intoXi-
cants during the past few years. SO
troublesome did he become to the sis
ters that it was found necessary to lock
him in the basement There alone by
himself Hogan began to see everything
that he had never seen before. His
worst hallucination was the idea that
somebody was trying to give him
drink of water He tried to escape his
imaginary toPmentor but he was
prisoner. He finally broke through the
window. clad only in his under gar
ments. and made his way through the
alleys eastward,
Immediately there was the report on
the streets that a wild man was at
large. threatening everybody who tried
to stop him in his mad career
Wherever he appeared he spread
alarm although he was really harmless
He wandered about like d man trying
to escape.
soon he was in the hands OF the
police who secured a pair of overalls
for the unfortunate man. His feet and
mead were still bare. The officers took
aim between them and marched him
toward the police station. Hogan was
unconscious of his surroundings The
blank look in his eyes and the flushed
face told the story To a rational per
son it would have been extremely pain-
ful to tramp bare footed on the cold
cement sidewalk which had not set

wherever he passed he met with sym

person who saw Hogan Other cases
were recalled where drunks had been
the object of public disgust and dis
grace for an hour at a time before they
could be placed behind the bars.
Hogan was taken TO the hospital
where he submitted tdf being dressed
and was then sent to Roby where he

LABOR AT PEACE.
Less Trouble in Indiana than Ever Be-
fore, says Commissioners Mccormack.

indianapolis Oct. Isl. P. McCor-
mack. state labor commissioner, said
today that he had never seen so little
trouble among the labor elements Of
the state as there has been within the
last year.
Barring some trouble with the
structural workers in Indianapolis. and
some trouble in Hammond and Indiana
Harbor, I might say that Indiana has
had no serious labor trouble OF any
kind In the last year" said Mr.. MeCor-
mack. Little difhculties have hap
pened and have been adjusted by this
department. but, for the most part they
do not deserve the title of difficulties.
This comes largely because of the
fact that in the larger establishments
the employers and employees are get
ting together more than they ever did
before" continued the speaker. Each
side TO the controversy is getting to
realize more and more that the other
fellow has a side to his grievance. and
the honest attempt is made to get to-
gether in some coneiliatory means.
The result is that Cancellation and ar
bitration are rapidly taking the place
of strikes, boycotts and lockouts.
.Laboring men are getting more con-
servative and temperate, too" contin-
ued Mr.. Mccormack. So. also. are the
labor leaders They talk matters over
TO a greater extent and this, with the
reading of their union papers, gives
them a better understanding of the
economic conditions under which they
work"
