FRONTIER WARFARE WAGED
WITH SPARROW GUNS.
West Hammond Boy Gets n Pellet in
the GrOin--Said to Have Been Fired
by Youth from this Side.

Two parties of school boys, one from
" Hammond and the other from West
Hammond. both carrying % calibre
rifles, both out for the sport of sh0ot-
ing sparrows clashed with each other
yesterday afternoon on the Illinois side
of the state line. seemingly because
each party imagined an attack had
been made upon it by the opposite
party.
John Nikolajszk of 101-155th, West
Hammond, received a flesh wound in
the groin by a bullet from the rife
Of young S. Nellie Of this city. Louis
Mott the latter's school mate, was with
his friend on the West Hammond ex-
petition.
The feeling among the South Hoh-
man street boys and the young Poles
across the state line has been very
strained for some time, and it was
due to this that it took only a stray
bullet to excite the imagination OF both
parties that they had been fred upon.
While the West Hammond boy received
the bullet. his assailant claims that he
and his friend Mott were fred upon
first
Counting the boys on botn sides
there were about ten of them. and the
ten tell different stories. which If sum
med up reads as follows, on the Ham
mond side: We We're out sparrow
hunting and happened TO get into ter
ritory in which some of the boys across
the state line We're already shooting.
A bullet or two came our way. in
tentionaIly we think. and we tried to
scare them by shooting into the air
in their direction. We never knew that
anybody was injured until an hour ar
ter. Of course. We are sorry If it was
our fault
The story from across the state line
soes along the same line, with the
difference that they claim the Ham
mend loys laid for them and opened
fire on them.

1t is understood that Warren Bigler
auditor of the state, has at last, re-
ceived all the special information that
he has been trying to obtain from the
Indiana life insurance companies for
over two months. One day last week.
it is said. he received the last OF the
answers to interrogatories sent out IN
the middle of July.
No definite information can be OBJ
tained with reference TO these interro-
gatories that .-ie auditor sent out. It
is understood, however. that they in
cluded the questions tending TO show
up the relative amount OF the premium
incomes that the various companies had
spent in getting new business, also, the
amount that the Indiana companies pay
out, every year, in the form OF divi-
dends to special contract holders. At
least these, and perhaps other points
have been involved in the interrogato-
ries. 1t is supposed that the infornla-
tion obtained will be used in connection
with the report that the investigating
committee is formulating.
So far as can be ascertained, this re-
port will be the most important one
involving Indiana financial institu-
tions that heve ever been made by state
officials. Nothing can be learned. ex-
cept in very general way with refer
ence to it and the members Of the COM
mittee have been very secretive. The
report is TO be made direct to the gov
ernor and he viii give it out.
incidentally it may be mentioned
that organization plans are on foot,
now. for the work Of the International
Policyholder's campaign in the State.
The work will be in charge of Govern

pany. IN the long interview today. Mr..
Shirley kives, I'm detail, the reasons why
the policyholders' ticket should be
elected, in order that the control may
be wrested from the lands OF the Wall
street manipulators. Voting is to be-
gin Oct Is, and continue for two

GANS-NELSoN PICTURES A FAKE.

Some enterprising ive-cent moving
pitcure men are advertising the fact
that they are displaying the moving
pictures of the Gans-Nelson fight at
Goldield. There are dozens of Ham
mond people who have been deceived
BY their claims and have spent their
nickel only to be disgusted with the
exhibition, when they found that it
was nothing but a poor imitation Of
the fight by two men who know mighty
little of the pugilistic game.

Base Ball Crazy.

When it really became certain that
the two major leagues teams of Chi
cago would finish first in their re-
spective leagues the interest in the
worlds series was Immediately fan
ned to a whirlwind of enthusiasm and
the headquarters of the successful clubs
were literally swamped with applica-
tions for reservations. AS high as 500
has already been paid for one box and
no telling what the spectators Will
get a tthe last moment, if they are
patient enough to withstand tempting
offers in the meantime.
The baseball world was given con-
siderable of a surprise last fall when
it was announced that the series be-
tween the New Yorks and Philadelphia
Athletics drew 91,723 people in I'VE
days, the receipts reaching $6s,435.
But with good weather here the COM
ing week the big figures given out a
year ago will be surpassed BY a big
margin over half that amount has
already been taken in just for box
seats.

Above All Else.

The Question to be decided is
one of National interest. 1t over
shadows every other question of
the day. 1t rises superior to politics,
to trusts, finance, commerce and every
thing else.
The rules as laid down by the Ma
tional Commission provide for second
games and to the winners of the first
four will go the championship OF the
world. On paper the Nationals are su-
perior to the Americans and although
base ball is not a betting game, bet
ters are laying two to one against the
South Siders. This considering the un-
certainty of base ball is liberal odds.
Both teams are in excellent shape and
it cannot be said that it will be an
overwhelming victory over the other
The Nationals, otherwise known as the
Spuds, have established a record for
games won but it is argued that the
| league of which it was a member, was
not so evenly balanced as the one in
which the American triumphed. It is
simply a matter of chance and the con-
dition of the teams when they face
each other.

Richard Henry Little was a year too
soon. About this time last year when
the Russian war correspondent was de-
tailed by a leading newspaper to do
little fancy work in connection with
the fancy finish of the race for the
pennant of the American League
which was between the Philadelphia
Athletics and the White Stockings OF
Chicago. he said: This is the apothe-
osis of base ball"
1t was an important assignment and
Richard Henry Little took it seriously.
After making this addition to the base
ball vocabulary Richard Henry Little
was all in. His subsequent re-
marks did not help his reputation as
a literateur and were soon forgotten in
base ball. He said something, how
ever, that is valuable for future appli-
cation.
Here is the real apotheosis of base
ball Chicago Nationals and the Chi
cago Americans, who have won the
championship Of their respective
League begin tomorrow to fight it
