In REPENTANT MOOD
SOME LITTLE TALES NOT TOO
FAR oVERDRAWN.
oliver Lightfnger's Vain Regrets for
Misspent Life--When the Presi-
dent of the Great Trust "Told
All"-Jack Blacks Plea.

Oliver Lightfinger. cashier Of the
Widows and Orphans Trust com
pany, had just reached the railroad
station with another mans wife and
what was left of the $4,000 he had
stolen. But on the advice OF detec-
lives he did not take the train he had
intended to. On the contrary he Wis
tied Mulberry street. After a long
talk in a cheerless inner room he sud
denly broke down.
Il have done wrong" he cried, Il
have done wrongl have spent most
of the money. I have deserted my
faithful little wife. But 1 still love
her dearly. 1 will do what 1 can to
make restitution"
But he had nothing to restore, so
they led him away. AS the cell door
closed on him he lifted up his voice
and wept "Oh, | beg of you keep all
knowledge of this sad affair from the
people of the little town of Wonhoss.
l used to sing in the choir there, and
it would break my heart if l thought
they found out about it" !
Willie Steel, head of the Aerated
Atmosphere Trust, after seven years
of vain chasing, had at last been
dragged into court AS the crowds
looked at the great magnate they saw
! him suddenly arise, place his hand
on his heart and dramatically de-
| clare:
81 shall tell ALI"
Then he sent for his lawyer, who
skillfully drew up a long statement
| that contained many words and no in
formation. And when the judge and
jurors heard it and the people read it
they were as wise as they were before
the statement was made.
And the trust went on its way re-
| joicing. The consumers didn't.
Tucker Ball had returned home
after a months spree. Before going
on it he had taken from his wife
every cent she possessed. When he
arrived at the door delegation from
the neighboring police station met
him and dragged him to court. AS he
was led away to serve the 80 days on
the island presented him by the Judge
he suddenly bethought himself of
something important.
what, oh, what" he cried, will
my poor children do for bread now
their father is taken from them?"
"You should not be too hard or
me-" pleaded Jack Black, who hac
killed a few men while pursuing his
vocation of holdup man, "as I now
see the error of my ways and have re
turned to the simple faith of my child
hood"
For he figured that this plea would
make an impression on those who had
returned to the simple faith of their
second childhood

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH
HAS ITS HANDS FULL.
100 Suits Growing Out of Violations of
Pure Food Laws VIII Keep the De-
partment Busy-Thus Far PrOsecu-
tions Have Been Almost Uniformly
Successful.
Especial to Lake County Times).

Indianapolis. June 21.-The state
board of health, through it's food and
drug inspector, H. E. Barnard, is tied
up with pending prosecutions all over
the state. The inspectors of the state
la boratory have made their preliminary
inspections, and the suits and prosecu-
lions growing out of these are keep
ing the commissioner and his deputies
busy. 1t is estimated that over Ice
prosecutions are now pending in the
different parts of the state, all with
reference to violations of the pure food
and drug laws.
SO far, the local prosecutors, all Of
whom seem anxious to enforce the
laws, have depended almost entirely
upon the inspectors to make their
cases. They bought the goods, the
laboratory made the analysis. and they
are called upon to enforce the prose-
cution. This takes a great deal of
time that might be used profitably in
making further inspections.
Mr. Barnard is anxious that the local
prosecutors proceed as much as pos
sible without the aid of the inspectors
or himself The prosecutors all have
the evidence-all that is necessary, and
he hopes that in the future prosecu-
tions may be pushed without the per-
sonal help of the laboratory officials.
So far the prosecutions that have been
completed have been almost uniformly
successful.

FOR SUBURBAN
TRAINS TO VALPO
Citizens of University Town
Circulate Petitions Ask
ing For Better Service.

Valparaiso citizens have presented
petition to the Nickel Plate road ask
ing them TO put on morning and even
ing suburban trains between Valpa-
raise and Hammond. This petition has
been circulated among the business
men and citizens and every one to
whom it has been presented has will
ingly signed it.
The cause Of the petition being cir
culated is on account of the Valpara-
iso men who work in Chicago and
Hammond who desire to go back and
forth TO their homes. a similar pc
tition has been sent in from Wheeler
asking the road to extend the subur-
ban service through to Wheeler. It is
probable that the matter Will be taken
under consideration by the Nickel Plate
officials. If this service should be es-
tablished 1t will greatly benefit many
Hammond people who go to and from
Valparaiso.

Valuable Data.

lsneciaI to Lake Connty Times.l

INDIANAPOLIS June 21-PurSuant to
the authority vested in the Indiana
Railroad commission by an act Of the
1907 general assembly, the commission
mas prepared and is now sending out
blank forms inquiring about the num-
Der of block signals operated by the
different Indiana roads; and what Is
more important is sending out blanks
calling for information concerning the
number of grade, overhead and under
head crossings with the Indiana rail-
roads The Importance of this latter
blank will be realized when it is I'M
derstood that under the new law the
Indiana commission has the right to
compel the elevation of tracks all over
that state, city, country and small
towns. And the gathering Of this in
formation viii be used as the basis for
the gradual work Of elevation, it is I'M
derstood.
These blanks are being sent to every
railroad in the state. The block signal
blank is divided into three general di-
Visions; lines now equipped. lines TO
be equipped equipment contemplated,
but not commenced) and lines not TO be
equipped (not now equipped and no
such equipment contemplated.)
Relates to Mileage.
The first two divisions contain places
for the date of the construction, actual
or contemplated; number of miles Of
automatic block; number Of miles Of
natural telegraph block; number OF
miles controlled manual block; and the
total mileage; together with the aver
age cost per mile for construction, each
kind: average cost per mile tor main
tenance: and average cost per mile for
operation. each kind.
The Indiana Highway Crossings,
blank is equally specific in its de
mands for information, asking for de-
tailed reports from each road on the
following:
Number Of grade crossings on line;
both street and highway; number OF
overhead crossings, street and high
way. on line: number Of under grade
street and highway crossings on hnei
also the total number Of all the above
crossings protected by watchmen, gates

protected IN any way.

CLING TO ANCIENT RITES.
Moroccans Still Offer Sacrifices TO
Proptiate the Powerful.

A strange custom still exists here,
that of sacrificing live animals to pro-
pitiate those il power. An instance
of it occurred the other day when
three ragged women, yelled, dirty and
poverty stricken, came staggering up
the hill to the flagstaff which stands
in the middle of our camp, half push
ing. half carrying two sheep bound
and helpless. At the foot Of our ban
ner staff they laid the beasts down
and sticking knife into their Threats
left them there to die by slow inches.
No cries, no wailing, they huddled to-
gether and sat motionless awaiting
Allah's will. The interpreter inter
viewed them and discovered that they
were the wives of Moor whom the
new Kaid had imprisoned for the
usual sin-the ownership Of riches.
This brigand plundered everything
and turned the women out to starve.
Hearing of the approach Of Basha-
dor, friend, no doubt, of our lord the
sultan, they came TO offer sacrifice
that he might have pity on them.
Alasi nothing can be done, the Kafd
is all powerful. even the sultan is
helpless. Sometimes q bullock Is
hamstrung on our road. Strange TO
say the sacrificed animal cannot be
used for food by the petitioners, but
our escorts profit and drag of the
carcasses with happy grins.-National
