John Walters. S11 Johnson street.
age Al years, is dying of delirium tre-
mems in cell in the county Jail in the
superior court house His cries and
groans fill the corridors and the con-
vulsive kicks and beating of his hands
on the wall occur periodically as the
terrible commissions come over him.
He is lying fiat on his back on lit
tie cot in an inner cell His strength
is going so fast that he is now unable
to move anything but his arms and
feet. He groans perpetually and
when the convulsions are the fiercest,
he cries aloud in agony.
1t is impossible to remove him. from
the Jail for the reason that there is no
accommodations at the hospital for
mentally deranged people. The city
has failed to provide proper hospital
accommodations and son John Walters.
a human being in horrible agony, is
lying on an iron cot and beating his
hands to pieces on the iron walls.
John Walters. the father, came to
see how his son was getting along.
The father is a good old German man
but he realized that there was nothing
he could do for his son as he looked
in through the grated bars and saw
the awful agony his son was in.
Realizes Case Is Hopeless.
His hands went up in the air with a
gesture that seemed to mean, We'll,
L can't help it," and then he simply
grunted huh" and said, Let him go.
I've done all l could for him
TIE turned away but took the oppor-
tunity to tell those around him how
it happened Pointing to his stomach
he said, He never could get enough
He has been drinking whisky for years
and he knew II would come to this"
The crowd in the corridors looked
on the father of the suffering man and
| felt sorry for the aged man. 1t was
an awful scene. The father seemed
stolid and Indifferent by the. facts
came out later. The young man ha:
ruined his fathers life with his ca
rousals. His mother is in her grave
The son is dying in jail. He, the caus,
/ of it all, is dying, and so the father
tries to hide his bitter sorrow.

CAR WAS FULL
OF WOMEN
Cedar Lake Man Has a Hair Raising
Experience, South of Highland,
and Several in Party Are Hurt
While Car Is Ruined-Bad Stretch
of Road the Cause.
Especial to TIE T1MEsl


Crown Point, Ind, Aug. 12.-Driving
a big Rambler touring car and going at
the rate of thirty-fve miles an hour,
Tony HetzIer, SON of Adam Hetzler of
Cedar lake, while returning from Ham
mond with a party of six persons, at 4
o'clock this morning almost miracu-
ousiy escaped instant death to himself
and the entire party.
BAD STRETCH OF ROAD.
Autoists who have made the run
from Hammond to Crown Point by the
way of Highlands and Sherrerville, are
familiar with the stretch of road be-
tween the two last named towns where
the highway turns the two corners not
over fifty yards distance from each
other,
DRIVE OFF THE ROAD.
It was at this spot where Hetzler met
with the accident. driving without
making the turn. The car with it's
seven occupants, consisting of four
women. child and a male companion,
made a complete somersalt, turning up
side down in the ditch along the road,
1t is said that several of the party
were asleep in the car at the time of
the accident.
WAS MIRACULOUS AFFAIR.
When everything is taken into con-
sideration, it is nothing short of a
miracle that one of the party escaped
instant death, or were not manner for
life. AS it was, beyond a few slight
bruises, and being badly shaken up
not one of the party are any the worse
for their experience. at this writing
but all are thanking their lucky stars
for their fortunate escape. The car
was turned right side up and started
for Crown Point but had not gone over
four miles, when the axle gave way
and Fred Metzler, from Bakers garage
was called to repair the damage but
nothing could be done as the car was
in too demoralized condition to run.
CAR BADLY BATTERED.
The car is badly battered up and will
need considerable repairing before Il
will be in running order again. In this
past several other accidents have beer
narrowly averted at this particular
spot by automobilists who are not ia
miliar with the road and the two short
turns make it a treacherous bit Of
going for an automobilist, If it hap
pens to be dark The road could bt
easily fixed by making a curve out o.
the two angles which would obriate the
danger TO a minimum and save future
trouble. The damages to Hetzler's ma
chine will amount into the hundred:
of dollars. The women in the cal

The Chicago Telephone company will
present a proposition to the users of
telephones in Hammond which will give
them the option of the 20-cent serv-
ice to which in which the operator
will get any party called, or 15-cent
service In which only the number may
be called.
This matter has aroused a great deal
of discussion among the business men
of the city since D. J. Moran first
made his famous kick in THE TIMES.
The concensus of opinion seems to be
that it would be best to have the 20
cent service, but this matter will not
be declared until the telephone is heard
from.
