Mr.. Schwab in his mining interests.

to throw any light on the matter,

else.

ATTORNEY MILO BRUCE
BACK FROM LAKE BRUCE.
Lawyer Has Been Attending Convention
of Citizens Who Met to Push Move
ment of Holding Chautauqua at This
Resort.

Attorney Milo NJ. Bruce returned this
morning from Lake Bruce, Ind, where
he has been on business for the last
three days. While there Mr.. Bruce at
tended a meeting of the citizens of the
town, who met for the purpose of orga-
MIXING temporarily to push the matter
of having a chautauqua at Lake Bruce
during the summer months.
After talk among those interested,
f. Il. Gould of kewanee, Ind, was Sc
Iected as secretary and treasurer, and
Z. NJ. Barker of Lake Bruce was elect
ed chairman.
c. E. Brown, representing the Chi
cago, Cincinnati & Louisville road was
present, and talked on the matter in
the interests of his company. He said
they would be willing to run excursions
to the meetings If the citizens once
got the affair started
1t was decided to hold another meet
ing the 18th of May for the purpose
OF permanently organizing and to file
articles of incorporation with the sec
rotary of state.
Already several shares have been
spoken for, and 1t looks like the or
ganization will so through.

Probably nobody will feel better

that as long as the dives are in the

COMMISSIONS BUSY DAY.
On Those Dates 1t VIII Receive AppIi-
cants Who Want Jobs As inspectors
of Cars, Track and Equipment Under
New Law.
Especial to Lake County Times).

indianapolis, April 26.-On next
Thursday and Friday the railroad com
mission will receive-but not in the
ordinary social sense. 1t will receive
and hear the many men who want jobs
as inspectors of cars, track and track
equipment under one of the new rail-
road laws passed by the last general
assembly. The commission has looked
over one batch but the bunch that is
coming next is too large to be handled
in one day.
This is the commissions method of
starting the actual enforcement of the
law granting them the right to have
inspectors over the roads. Within the
past three weeks, the commission has
given evidence of it's determination to
get the new railroad laws working as
soon as possible, and this is another
step in that direction. Under the
shippers bill a new car record form
has been made; arrangements are be-
ing made to test the full crew bill;
blanks are now being prepared for the
report of accidents under another sec
ton of one of the measures; and the
commission is getting after the safety
appliance law.
Two blanks are being prepared for
the accident reports. One not so de-
tailed, with reference to the first re-
port, within five days after the acct
dent occurs; and the other, more de-
tailed, to be filled out within twenty
days after the accident. These are
now being printed, and today a letter
was sent to all of the roads in the
state notifying them that the commits
sion was getting busy on the accident
| end of it's work.
Slowly but surely the commission is
| preparing the way for the complete
| application of the new laws to this
state. One thing is started at time,
but the deliberateness with which the
commission goes about the business in
dicates the thoroughness that will
| characterize every step.

Slides on.

L. E. Lockwood, a driver on one Of
Crowells express wagons, is congrat-
ulating himself on narrow escape he
had this afternoon.
Lockwood was sitting on a load Of
gas stoves, which he was hauling, and
when just in front of the Majestic ho-
tel the ranges started TO fall and he
was unable to keep from going with
them. falling under the horses feet,
and had the animals not been caught
by some laborers who were standing
by, Lockwood would undoubtedly have
been kicked and run over by the wagon.
AS it was the horses were stopped
and he crawled out from under their
feet more scared than hurt, although
his left leg was slightly bruised.
