MUST PAY FOR
PROTECTION
City Demands Reward from
West Hammond for
Fire Runs.
PAYMENTS RECIPROCAL
Village VIII Get Something in
Turn for Service Rendered
By Local Department.

The question has now come up be-
fore the Board of Public Works as to
whether the city fire department
should not receive remuneration for
services in assisting the West Ham
mond department in case it is nee
essary to call on our department for
assistance. The question was raised
when the department was called into
West Hammond recently to help in the
extinguishing of the Jan Mika fire in
which two buildings were totally des
troyed at loss of $4,000.
The department has always been
ready to lend all possible assistance
for any fire no matter how serious
and with very little thanks and no re-
enumeration for the expense. The Off
cials now realize that they have been
supporting a fire department for both
Hammond and West Hammond and
that the latter place has received the
same protection as this city without
helping to pay for it.
Stuted Sum For Each Run.
This matter was brought to the at
tention of the officials of West Ham
mond who sent a committee to confer
with the members of the Board of
L
morning. All of the members of the
committee expressed willingness to pay
the city a certain amount for each call
and it was reciprocaIly agreed that
Hammond will in turn pay West Ham
mond the same amount in case the
local department finds it necessary to
call on the village for assistance
The amount to be charged it is thought
will be about $25 for each cali for
either department to cross the line.
This plan has been worked by several
cities which have been placed in the
same position and has always been
successful and while 1t has not been
formally adopted there is small doubt
but what 1t will be.
1t is not the expense of making the
run which the city is objecting to so
much as the jeopardizing of property
in this city while the department is
| lighting flames out side of the city.
This is not fair to the people of Ham
mond and If the practice is to be con-
tinued they must, contends the board.
receive a proper settlement for their
services.
Only Responsible Calls Favored.
The West Hammond committeeman
claim. however. that the calls made
for Hammonds department were by ir-
responsible persons and not by any
one in authority. therefore they do
not consider themselves indebted fl
nancially for services in the past, al
though they expressed appreciation for
the kindness. To avoid a repetition OF
this the West Hammond and Ham
mond departments will rig up a code
I by which the department may be called
out by any of the officials by the use
of this code and in no other way. The
Hammond department will then disre-
gard any call except from those who
have been given secret signal. This
will be changed from time to time SO
that the code will not become gen
orally known among the excited pop
ulace who gather around each and
every hay-stack fire that occurs in the
city.

Conductor Helpless.

The train stopped and he and dozen
of the members of the party got off.
Then some of the women began getting
off and it was impossible for the con-
ductor to start the train.
In fact Harry Lemon engaged the con-
ductor in n heated argument until all
of the ninety passengers had alighted
from the train and then he thanked him
for his kindness in letting them off.

JEFF Davis for President.

Adlai E. Stevenson, of Illinois, form
erly vice president of the United
States, is fond of telling of an odd ex-
perience he had shortly after the civil
war At that time David Davis was
much talked of as the man to run
against Gen. Grant for the presidency.
A conference was held in Mr.. Steven
sons Bloomington residence, many
leading Illinois and other Democrats
being present. a good deal was said
about the possible candidacy of Mr..
Davis, but no one happened to men
ton his first name. After the confer
ence broke up Mr.. Stevenson drew an
old farmer friend into a corner and
asked his opinion. The farmer was
from the extreme southern end of
Illinois. He said: Well, Adlai, you
know I've followed your lead in poll
tics for a good while and I'm going
to do it now. But, honest, Adlai, don't
you think it's a leetle mite early TO
nominate JEFF Dayis?" - Chicago

"BUNGALOW."
Word of Comparative Modern Date /:
Anelo-Indian.

The word is of comparatively mod
ern date and is Anglo-Indian. It's
origin can be traced to the adjective
bangla (EIindustanD, which literally
means belonging to Bengal" 1t is
an easy step from this to the manu-
script preserved in the India ONCE
(England), dated 1876, which has a
reference to "Bungales or Hovells
for all English in the company's
service" ANY sketch of a native
dwelling in India will show how at
frst it was not unnatural to bracket
''bungales" with novels" The word
was in the making, and the building
improved with the word.
In I'LL we find a reference to q
Dutch Bungalow on the shores of
the Hughley. In the eighteenth and
early nineteenth centuries there are
references in Anglo-Indian CORE
spondence to wayside houses which
are spelled bungula" and "bungalo,"
and in one instance, in 1902 journal
of residence in India describes the
bungalo as a garden house. The most
striking reference which TALES with
our own view of the building as de-
scribed by the word is contained in a
book dated 1847, which says: The
bungalows of India are for the most
part built of unbaked bricks and COW
cred with thatch, having the center
a hall, the whole being encompassed
by an open veranda." That is prob
ably the shortest and most complete
definition of the broad meaning of the
word that can be found. Of course
we build bungalows nowadays of
many other materials besides bricks;
but the latter are used, sun dried, in
many quarters of the globe besides
India. Primarily, a bungalow is a
building specially suitable for a hot
climate where the broad verandas
make cool. shady places for sitting

WHAT WILL THE JURY Do?
Membe of a Mob that Lynched a

tilted in Court,

Charlotte, \. c., July 1.-THE al
of twenty citizens of Arson county,
this state, charged with lynching J.
V Johnson, which has been begun at
Monroe, is developing strong testi-
mony against the members of the
mob. Miss Alice Began. daughter OF
the sheriff, resumed her testimony, de-
failing how the mob broke into the
Jail on the plea of having a prisoner
to commit, and how they seized and
held her father, took the keys to john
sons cell away from him, released
Johnson, and after tying him with
ropes dragged him off down the ROAD
tn the point where he was lynched.
She positively identified several of
the defendants as being members of
the mob. The cross examination of
Sheriff Began. who was recalled. failed
to shake his testimony in any particu-
lar. He recognized many of the mem,
bers of the mob and called their
names.

originated by the culprits and their
friends to conceal the marriage and
they were making merry over the big
surprise which would be in store for
their relatives when the fact was dis
closed.
Alas, The latter were too wise to be
fooled by the coup and the bride was
astonished by being greeted as Mrs

discovery was made, but a great many

MAYOR RE|LLEY
To THE RESCUE
He Beats the Firemen to the
Work of Distinguishing
Blaze at Emmerling's.

The residence of Undertaken Nicholas
Emmerling suffered from an attack of
the firebug at nine-thtrty this morn
ing and its ravages were only checked
after a loss of $500 had been suffered.
The fire department made a prompt
response to the call sent in and sue
ceeded in arriving at the home on
Douglas street in time to put the fin
ishing touches on the work Of ex
tinguishing the blaze which was begun
by ex-Mayor Pat Kelley.
The blaze was discovered soon after
it had started in the bed room ad-
joining the back parlor in which a
quantity Of inflammable material used
il burnt wood work had been laid
away. 1t is supposed that this in some
way caught fire, PROBABLY by the spon-
taneous combustion of a number of
oily rags thrown together after they
had been used in connection with the
burnt wood work.
As soon as she noticed the flames
darting through the transom of
the bed room. Mrs. Emmerling notified
several passerby one of whom turned
in the alarm. In the mean time MIR,
Kelley got busy and lying on his back
gripping a garden hose with both
hands and half checked by the smoke
he had the fire nearly extinguished
before the department could arrive. 1t
was probably due to his prompt action
that saved the house from complete
destruction. Most of the furniture in
the room was completely ruined while
the damage done throughout the house
by the dense smoke can scarcely be
estimated. $500 is thought by Mr.. En-
merling to about cover the entire loss.

LONG SEARCH
IS REWARDED
Lake County Times Assists
in Restoring Daughter
to Father.
THIRTY YEARS
During Separation of Over Third of
Century, J. W. Moore Never
Dropped His Quest

After search OF over thirty years
a fond parent was reunited with his
long lost daughter, and young wo-
man, now married for the first time
in thirty five years, felt the warmth
Of loving fathers epbrace and
parental kiss. The reunion took place
at GAS Jefferson avenue. Woodlawn,
and was brought about through the
intermediary of THE LAKE COUNTY
TIMES, to whom the daughter appealed
in her search for the parent.
J. w. Moore. formerly a resident of
Lowell, Ind, was separated from his
wife thirty five years ago. The couple
had one daughter, Alta. and after the
separation the mother and nine-months
old child left for parts unknown and
were never heard of again until about
IA month ago, when communication be-
tween the pair was established through
THE TIMES.
After searching for ten years in In
diana and Chicago for the child. Mr..
Moore. wishing to forget his troubles,
went to Winnebago, Mimi, where he
settled on a farm and in a few years
became a prosperous farmer He re-
married and eight children came to
bless the union with his second wife
Never Forgot His Baby.
In all the years ne did not forget
the wee nine months-old mite, his
daughter by his first wife, and his sec
ond wife aided him in his search for
her. Although he advertised and en-
ployed all means to find a trace of the
child, he was unable to do so.
The daughter was taken by her
mother to northern Michigan, where
the mother remarked. The child was
kept in ignorance as to her father and
was forced to look upon the second hus-
band as her real father, She grew up
bright young woman and was mar
ried to Theodore +. Fugenschuh. a
prosperous young business man of Chi
| cago.
Daughter Learns Her story.
Several months ago she CHANGED to
hear from woman. who said that she
was a distant relative of Alta. and was
informed that she was born in Lowell
and the nature of the separation of
her father and mother was made
known. She at once appealed to THE
LAKE COUNTY TIMES to find some trace
of her birth and her fathers absence.
This was done and it was learned that
the father had gone to Minnesota.
With this clew the daughter then by
means of another relative found the
address of her father and al once com
municated with him. Mr.. Moore, now
a grandfather, with two of his own
sons by his second wife, came to Chi
lcago as soon as they could, and with
tears in his eyes grasped his long lost
daughter in his arms. The reunion
was joyful indeed and all sat down tC
dinner together. Both were extremely
thankful for the services of THE LAKE
COUNTY TIMES and called at the office in
Hammond to express their appreeia-
ton.
