verdict was to the effect that Greendhal
died OF an acute and sudden attack of
stomach trouble. Of which he was the
victim for years.
The deceased's sudden illness and
his unexpected death gave rise to seri-
Gus suspicious. the authorities sus-
pecting that either he was the victim OF
OF a premeditated murder, or what
seemed more plausible. that Gheendhal
had IN some manner taken poisonous
food, unknowingly into his system. Mrs
Greendhal refuted the theory from ths
beginning, knowing as she did Of hel

CALAMITY H0WLERS, GO
WAY BACK AND SIT DOWN

Pessimists who saw distress and
some put il. ruin, for Indiana farmers,
have changed their minds and admitted
that they were poor guessers. Accord
ing to reports that come pouring in
from all parts Of Indiana the crops are
doing finely and the talk about poor
crops has been shattered and the farm
ers are rejoicing.
In the Kankakee region, south OF
Lowell corn is growing better than II
previous years and in some places the
stalks are unusually high. Other grains
and hay will be better than last year

covered last night by detectives in
the employ of the Wabash railroad,

business of importing Cinnamon from

The story of the tracing of the fugi-

COUNTRY CLUB
IDEA ADVANCES
Chicago Horsemen Interest
ed in Project, Says
Chief Promoter.
PLEASED At PROGRESS
Will J. Davis in Letter to Time:
Expresses High Hopes of
Plans Success.

In a letter addressed to THE LAKE
COUNTY TINES. WIN J. Davis the owner
of the Illinois Theatre, expressed his
pleasure at the progress that has been
made in the movement for country
club for Hammond and Lake county.
Mr. Davis said that a great many
horsemen on the south side in Chicago
had seen the story that was reprint
ed in the Chicago papers from THE
LAKE COUNTY TIMES and many of them
had called upon him and offered to
help in the consummation of the deal
IL it seemed feasable.
THE article has stirred up the trot-
ting men all over the south side" said
Mr. Davis, A." and several of them came
in and saw me about it. / think large
membership could be secured quick
ly, and it would be composed of rep
resentatives from every town of I'M
portance in the county"
This gives something of an idea of
the interest that has been aroused even
among the horse men of Chicago and
points to the possibilities of the plan
tc build a country club in Hammond.
The idea, however is a mistaken one
that the sole object Of the promoters
of this plan is to have a race track
upon which they can try out their
horses.
1t so happens that the men have con-
ceived this plan for a country club for
Hammond are horse men" and they
have declared themselves in favor OF
putting in a half mile track along
with the other features of country
club.
IN an interview with Mr.. Davis the
other day he said he thought thers
would be q great many of the bushes:
men of Indiana Harbor. East Chicago
Whiting and Gary would be interested
] in the plan for a country club and tina
large membership of very desirable
men could be secured from those cities

though standing pat, said be dld not

tile effect that Palovich left StenlSer

RENO, July 27.-Yesterday the
Office of the Chief Of Police furnished
the setting for the closing scene in
one of those p.tiful domestic tragedies
that wiring the heart Of every believer

and there Bertha Hall, confronted by
her outraged spouse, with the proofs
of her misdeeds, surrendered all

and gave up all rights to her share

The tragedy began two years ago

When one listens to the piano play
ing of Miss Hazel Piper it is almost
impossible to realize and appreciate
the fact that she is totally blind. Ev-
cry movement is SO easy and skillful,
every tone is brought forth 50 clearly
every modulation is made with such
telling effect that it would seem i'm
possible that il can be done by one
who can not read the music and see
the marks OF expression as they ap-
pear upon the printed page.
Last evening at the recital given
by Miss Piper and Miss Mast, both ol
whom are blind, the listeners were
held spellbound by the sweet strains
and the hour and a half given to the
entertainment of those who were
present sped away in an incredibly
short space OF time, contrary TO the
