The republican party leaders are
swinging around the circle Last night
they held a meeting at Lowell. and
yesterday afternoon they stopped at
Griffith, Highlands, Hessville and sew
eral other little places along the wav
There was nothing spectacular about

advertised gatherings of politicians
who got together with the leaders of
the party in the state to talk over tba
political situation.
This evening there will be a meetino
Of the Hammond political leaders in

CASE IS CONTINUED.

The Benthal case in which the Gary
Printing and Publishing company is
seeking to have its former editor prose
cuted for alleged defalcatfons and en-
bezzlements, was postponed until
Thursday on the request of Thomas
Costello, who is interested in the prop
erty along with the Knots brothers

May Establish Service.

This means that the postoffice de-
partment still has in mind the estab-
fishing of an interurban service be-
tween these cities and in view of the
fact that the Chicago, Lake Shore and
South Bend line is about completed,
it may be expected that the service
will be begun as soon as the cars are
running on regular schedule.
The installation of the interurban
railway mail service means that the
letters which now go from East Chi
cago to Chicago on their way to Ham
mond will be sent to Hammond direct
ly and this will be true of the other
cities of the region.
1t means that the facilities for mail
communication are to be improved so
that they are on a par with the trans
portation facilities of the region

in Future.

1T is very likely that the street car
mail service svlzich ls to be established
between Hammond, East Chicago and
Indiana Harbor viii. be tried out on the
Chicago, Lake Shore and South Bend
interurban line rather than on the
Hammond, Whiting and East Chicago
line.
In answer to the query by Postmas-
ter W. H. Gostlin of Har I'd as to
whether there had been I; ing fur
ther done towards establishing the
service between these cities. Chief
Clerk j. G. Huber had the following
to say:
Dear Sir: In reply to the at
tached, Will state that the matter
of establishing service as herein
stated is being held up until the
construction of the line between
Hammond, East Chicago and Indi-
ana HarbOr is completed, as it is
the opinion that much better ar
rHngements can be made on this
line.

This letter, read at the meeting of
the Entertainment Committee this
morning, caused much pleasure. On
motion of J. o. Lutted. vote Of
thanks was unanimously passed for
Mr.. Fairchild and the Makee Sugar
Company.
VIM. II. Hoogs reported progress In
ball affairs. The question of how to
extend invitations to the officers of
the Fleet was discussed, and as a re-
suit a committee, consisting of +. l..
Waldron, Abram Lewis, Jr., and II.
ID. Bowen, was appointed to go
aboard the flagship Connecticut and
ascertain from the Chief of STAFF the
desired arrangements for the ball and
Pearl HarbOr trip. In this regard
the committee decided that instead
Of inviting reporters from the three
daily newspapers, only the editors be
invited to the Pearl Harbor trip. In
case they cannot attend personally
they can send someone on their be-
half. Invitations to Editors Wallace

and George Henshall of the Star will
be extended to go down to Pearl Har-

Chairman Waldron reported orally
that DR.. Mitamura will turn in $50
for the ball tickets he had sold.
Shortly after the adjournment Of
the Entertainment Committee the
Pearl Harbor Trip Committee met
and approved the names of those Sc
lected to go down to Pearl Harbor.
together with the officers of the Fleet.
Mr.. Van Valkenburg, who has charge
of the lunch tables and benches, stated
that there would be about $50 people
on the list. He would not. however,
give out the names for publication.

FISH STORY

experience | had in the same locality
a few years ago.
One fine morning, having nothing
particular. to do, | rented boat and,
taking my best fishing tackle, pulled
well outside of the reef, with the
hope of securing few fat salmon,
1t being well known to all the fish
ermen here that when the salmon
frequent these shores they come in
large quantities and are in the prim-
est of condition. When about half
a mile Eva of James Castles seaside

my attention was attracted by
commotion In the water some four TO
five hundred yards Waikiki from my
boat.

Diamond Head travelling slowly to
the westward, as Is their custom at
certain seasons of the year.
1t happens sometimes that a stray
gler will become detached from the
school. and in the endeavOr to regain
his comrades travels with great We
locity in various directions. Now

the commotion referred to was caus-
ed by Left Whale-one that had
strayed from its companions, and
was approaching my boat with ter
rifle rapidity. When about seventy
feet from my small craft he leaped
clear of the water and passing some
twenty-five feet above my boat,
plunged into the sea about one hun
dred feet from me. After proceeding
some distance he turned and again
with rush repeated his perform
ance and, much to my relief, he dis
appeared during his second arc-like
feat, leaving me feeling more COM
posed.

large specimen of the species Bale

am told frequents the st. Lawrence
river in search of cod, which 1t re-
lentlessly chases to Niagara Falls.
and, salmonlike, leaps the falls in
pursuit Of its favorite food. The
spectacle of whale "leaping the

but extremely interesting.
Without a solitary fish, ! returned
to the shore thankful indeed that
escaped with my life. and was spar
ed to truthfully tell the experience

am sure many who read this will
join me in sincere regrets that many
of the fish stories published, IL not
absolutely untrue, are certainly
greatly exaggerated, and writer's OF
these sea adventures should bear In
mind that truth should be strictly
adhered TO, for often It is stranger
than fiction.
