SCHOOL ON
THE WRONG LOT
Griffith School Board Faces
Curious Problem That
is Hard to Solve.
BLAME THE TOWNSHIP TRUSTEE
Wing of Building Built on the North
Side Instead of South as
Was Intended
(speeial to Lake counts Tlmen.l

Griffith, Oct. 17.-While locating lots
along which sidewalk is to be con-
structed. the contractors discovered
that the school building In the north
ward is not on the right lots The
matter was reported to the town board
and an investigation was imm mediately
made by that body who after thorough
search, found that the north wing of
the building is on property which does
not belong to the township.
While the schools were still under
the jurisdiction of the township
trustees, the building was enlarged by
the addition of the north wing, but by
some mistake. instead of placing 1t on
the south side, where there was plenty
of room for it on the school grounds,
1t was built on the north.
The school board considers that the
township trustee is the one to right
the matter, for the mistake was made
while under the control of that official
and though the board has taken their
schools, the trustee is still running
them for this year.
They held a meeting with Trustee
Kunert of Toleston and though the
mistake did not occur during his ad-
ministration, he has agreed to take the
matter up and rectify it.

MORE ROOM NEEDED

The old question Of more room for
the fire department rises before the
city administration with renewed i'm
portance, since 1t becomes necessary
with the completion Of the two new
fire stations to install an operating
system connected with the department
in Robertsdale and the new stations
without the new system the quart
ers down stairs are cramped and more
snace is urgently needed. The only
solution to the problem is the vacat-
ing Of the council chamber which is
directly above the wagon room.
The only place now in sight Tor the
council meetings is the first rioor or
the old jail and it is not unlikely that
preparations Will be made in the near
future to vacate it of all the storage
accumulated there and put 1t in shape
The present council room is not
very inviting place for meeting and
the new one in the old jail is still less
desirable.

ALL SAINTS TO MOVE
Congregation Seeks New
Church Site on Account of
Nearness to Railroad.

Should the plans of the trustees of
All Saints church and Its pastor, the
Rev. Edward r. Barrett. not carry
amiss the school and church of that
congregation, now on Sibley street. Will
be removed from the present site and
be located on the corner Of Russell and
Holman streets on the vacant lot now
owned by the Bell estate.
While this site has not been defin-
itely decided upon. the plans 10 move
out nevertheless.
The plan to change the location has
been contemplated for some time by
the trustees and the pastor. but IL re-
received new impetus in a letter d.
rected to the congregation by Bishop
]. b. AlIerding of Fort Wayne who ad-
vised that the change be made az soon
as possible on account OF the present
location being too near to the Nickel
Plate railroad tracks. with the school
yard adjoining the right of way the
children are in constant danger AMI
no matter what precautions are taken
to guard against accidents. there Is
never complete safety.
The deal between the trustees and
the Bell estate has not yet been con-
summated, but as soon as site has
been secured preparations win be made
to remove the buildings. The school
and church are now in one building
and located between Oakley avenue and

BRAKEMEN SEE DANGER
AND PREVENT DISASTER
Thomas Nolan and Richard Bolten
of South Chicago, While Playing
About Yards of Ship Building
Company Nearly Lose Their Lives
By Their Mischievousness.
Especial to Lake County TImes.)


South Chicago, Oct 1.-Two little
boys by the name of Thomas Nolan and
Richard Bolten. 9 years old, came near
losing their lives yesterday afternoon
and in addition to that, nearly ran
big switch engine into the Calumet
river while playing in the yards of the
South Chicago Ship Building company
shortly after their dismissal from
school for the afternoon.
1t was the most thrilling moment
the hardy workmen have seen for some
time and for an instant 1t looked as If
the lives of the boys could not be
saved. While wandering home from
school the small boys stopped as many
of them are accustomed, to see the
sights of the big industry, and while
iounglng around spied an engine
steaming on the track. The young lads
out of curiosity inspected the steam
ing monster and watched 1t for sew
eral minutes as 1t ran back and forth
switching cars in the big yards.
At last the big locomotive stopped
directly in front of them and they
eagerly climbed aboard to see at close
range the wonders of its mechanism.
In few minutes while the engineer
and firemen were absent getting orders
FROM nearby station. the boys began
meddling with the levers. BY chance
one of them grasped the throttle and
n little jerk. Slowly the
monster impelled by the application Of
tne steam. moved forward while the
boys frantically attempted to stop IT.
They could not handle the big lever,
however, during the excitement and
the train was Just moving fast enough
so that they dared not jump from the
step.
The situation was sized up in an
instant by a brakeman near at hand
end the trainman climbed into the cab
and quickly stopped the engine. It
was most fortunate that the man was
at hand for the engine was headed
in the direction of the draw bridge,
which. because of the fact that 1t is
seldom used. is nearly always open.
II is hard to imagine the horror OF the
engine piling into the river. carrying
with II It's human passengers. They
too, seemed to realize their danger to
a certain extent and were thankful to
the big brakeman who lifted them
down from the cab. feeling too re-
neved because of their narrow escape
to severely reprimand them. The boys
live IN the same building at $50 Ave-

OVERCOME BY GAS;
RESCUED BY WIFE
Frank Nicklaw of South
Chicago Discovered in
Unconscious Condition.
CAUSE OF ACCIDENT UNKNOWN
Retired After Working AL Night and
May Have Turned On Gas
Gas in Sleep.

South Chicago. Oct. 17.-Franlk Nick
law of S011 ManisteA avenue, was
nearly overcome by Illuminating gas
at 1880 p. m. yesterday, while sleeping
in his room, unaware of his danger.
Nicklaw, who is 40 years of age and
employed as a switchman, was work
ing nights. lay asleep in his room, but
when he did not awake at the usual
time the family became alarmed. His
door was found locked and his wife
thought that she scented the odor Of
gas, 81 the door was broken In with
the ali Of neighbors, who came to the
rescue.
Nicklaw was unconscious when
found but after careful treatment soon
revived. 1t was discovered that the
gas escaped from a jet which was left
open in some mysterious manner. 1t
is thought that If the man had not
been discovered in a half hour he
would never have survived the acci-
dent. 1t was most fortunate that the
man was found at all, as his Wife,
knowing that he had come home tired
that morning, let him sleep as long
as he wanted to. 1t was not sleep,
however. that made him stay longer
than usual. but the escaping gas, which
he never realized had mastered him
until he was brought to consciousness.
The ambulance was called but it was
not found necessary to take him away
from his home as his recovery was
rapid. The investigation Is now pro-
crossing to find out, IL possible, how
the gas happened to leak.
