The American says he has some pu-

When they do, declares Erne, they win
make the English and American fight

manner of that astute young man.
With a holiness that astonished him
self-and he was at no time timid-he
asked if Harbert intended to remain
in Chicago for any length of time.
After he had gone away Rigby rubbed
his forehead in a %bewildered sort of
way and marveled at the nerve Of the
man.
The day passed slowly, but late in
the afternoon the suspense became so
keen that he found it difficult to keep
himself from making inquiries Of the
proper officials as to whether afidavits
had been fled by Harbert or any other
person. His hand did not shake now,
but there was a steady pain at the
back Of his head.

Voters of Lexington Township Attention.
On account of the great burden
which has heretofore fallen upon the
judges and clerks of election serving
at the court house, we, the under
signed Chairmen of the Republican
and Democratic committees, earn
estly request all voters residing east
of Twentieth street and following the
Columbus road, south to the boundary
line of Lexington Township to vote
at the Engine House (Old Town
precinct
All voters living in the city of Lex.
ington outside of the old town pre-
cinct are requested to vote at the
city Hall; all voters who reside out
side of the city and not ia Prairie
church neighborhood, are requested
to vote at the Court house; all voters
living in Prairie church neighborhood
are requested to vote at Prairi
church precinct.
This is very important for the rea-
son that the large number of votes
cast at the Court House heretofore
has made it impossible for the judges
and clerks to complete the count un-
til long after the returns are received
from the most remote parts of the
state.

CONVENTION RATES
REVISED BY ROADS
Where Attendance Reaches
1000 Half Fare Home
ward Will be Granted.

A complete revision of arrange
ments for selling tickets for conven-
lions and other gatherings in the ter
ritory east of Chicago was effected
yesterday at a meeting of railroad
agents IN Chicago. Some weeks ago
the general passenger agents agreed
that for all special events a rate of
one and one-half fares for the round
trip would be made, provided an at
tendance of 1000 was guaranteed.
Since this agreement it develops that
for many of the meetings it was i'm
possible to make an absolute guaran-
tee of 1000 travellers and as the rail-
roads had nothing but a promise they
concluded that the entire arrangement
was on false foundation While
many of the big meetings like those
of the Grand Army and National Edu-
cational association would be attended
by several thousand persons, the con
ventions of less Importance could not
figure on so many.

BUILDING INTERESTS
ARE PICKING UP
Returning Activity Noted
in Gary Construction
Circles.

One of the signs of returning ac-
tivity in the building line in Gary is
the letting of contract for the con-
struction of two business blocks on
Broadway, the aggregate cost of which
will be $4,000 One of them is to be
a mercantile building with apartments
on the second floor and the other is to
be a vaudeville theater with flats above.
The buildings are to be constructed
by j. N. Moody of Philadelphia and
the contract was let of f. G. Michael
son of Philadelphia. a millionaire con-
tractor, who probably does more work
of the kind in Pennsylvania than any
other man in the business.
Three Store Structures Proposed.
One of the three buildings is to be
erected on Broadway, between Sixth
and Seventh avenues. next to the cloth
ing store of O'Donneu and Baily. 1t
is to be three-story structure and
will be one Of the most attractive
buildings on the street.
The other building is to be located
on the northeast corner of Seventh
avenue and Broadway. 1t will be so
by 100 feet in size and will be two
stories in heighth. Both of the build
ings will be constructed of brick and
will be deliberately trimmed.
The building at the corner of Sew
enth avenue is to be used as a vaude-
Vile theater and a lease has been ia
ken for period of five years by Ley
man and Vieranstein. an independent
vaudeville company.
An Attractive Theater.
The theater will be an attractive one
and will seat $50 persons. There will
be several tiers of box seats and the
chairs will be approved plush opera
chairs. The theater will be opened or
August 5 and it is expected that the
work on the other buildings will BIZ
completed by this time.
The building of these two new build.
ings on Broadway will help to fill vi
the empty spaces between the mill sit,
and the Wabash and Michigan Contra
tracks and it is expected that soon tn,
! whole of Broadway will be built III
and will appear just as it will when tn,
building of the city is completed.

IN SEARCH

The body of the man who was found
in the Calumet river near Miller, is
still being held at Hobart awaiting
Identification. There have already been
% persons who have viewed the body
in the hope of discovering some miss
ing friend or relatives.
TowA Marshal of Miller Edward
Klopf is now convinced that the man
at the morgue was the victim of foul
play. The clothes which were found
on the bank of the river were not his.
They did not fit him and evidently be-
longed to a person considerably smaller
than he was.
There SENS to be no hope of Identify
ing the body as everything in the way
of clothing and other personal posses
sions were stripped from the body be-
fore it was found.

NEW HOME IS WRECKED
Newly Married Couple Re
turn From Visit to Find
Home in Ashes.

Fire of unknown origin yesterday de-
r. H. Jaques of Burnside and the total
contents which consisted of about
$4,000 worth of furniture. Mr.. and
Mrs. Jaques, who have been married
only short time. left yesterday after
noon at 1 o'clock for Pullman where
they were visiting friends and upon
their return found their home In a pile
of ashes. At the sight of their burned
domicile Mrs. Jaques uttered one cry
and fell into her husbands arms in a
dead faint.
The household goods were uninsured
and the loss puts a blight on the newly
marble couple.
Just what started the confiagration
is not known, unless 1t was mice eat
ing matches. This Mr.. Jaques said
was impossible as they had left no
matches lying around the house Sew
eral other theories were advanced, but
none of them yede plausible. The po-
lice are investigating are origin OF
thes fine as they believe it was in
cendiary.

repute, pronounced to be from human
being.
Other discoveries included piece of
vertebra, some pieces of skin showing
evidence of hair and which may be a
piece of a human scalp and small gold
plated ring bearing the date 1906. That
the vertebra is from human being is
doubted by Coroner c. S. Mack and DR..
Meyer, but in view of the fact that the
sitting, sluicing. and washing of the
debris has barely started leads to hope
that much more valuable evidence will
be discovered.
Coroner Mack was cautious in his
opinions respecting the pieces of jaw
bone found, and stated that he would
like to have them passed upon accord
ing to the rules Of comparative anat-
omy before officially pronouncing them
human. However, DR.. Meyer felt con-
f1dent. that they were from a human
being. The pieces contained charred
holes from which teeth evidently had
dropped out
Another step in advance in the in
vestigation was made by the announce
ment by Sheriff Shutter that the rings
about which questions have been asked
were identified as having been worn by
Mrs. Guinness by means of photograph
of the woman placed under magnify
ing glass.
I'VE are positive that Mrs. Guinness
wore the rings" said the sheriff in Civ
ing his verdict.

BOOSTERS IN ARGUMENT
Takes Sides in Matter of
Commonwealth Ave
nue. Resolutions.

At a special meeting of the Booster
club held in Cline's hall Wednesday
evening and presided over by Presi-
dent Harry Lemon, a resolution was
introduced by P. A. Parks, the sub
stance of which was opposition by the
club to the vacating by the city of
Commonwealth avenue and asking the
council to reconsider it's action.
Provoked Discussion.
AS soon as the resolution was read
warm discussion arose as to the adj
visibility of adopting it. Charles E.
Fowler. Judge T. M. C. Hembron and
w. B. Van Horne strenuously opposed
its acceptance and P. A. Parks and DIR.
Sauer championing it. The motion fin
ally came to a vote and the resolu-
ton was carried. The chairman then
was disinclined to carry out the pro-
visions of the resolution and refused
to name the committee of twelve pro-
vided for in the resolution. This was
the occasion for another argument and
again Mr.. Parks was victorious and
Mr.. Lemon named the committee. Fow-
Ter, Hembrof and Van Horne. the mem
bers who most actively opposed the
measure, together with nine others
w we're pIdCSO Oh Tie GOnI41tlGG. TOWl0T
and Hembroff Immediately resigned,
explaining that they couldn't consist
emily go before the council to ask for
something to which they were opposed.
| The chairman thereupon named two
others to act in their places.
/ The vacation of Commonwealth ave-
nue. has been a bone of contention In
| the Harbor for the last six months.
| The disputed strip of land is situated
| between the rights of way of the Lake
/ Shore and the c., l. S. &E. railroads
and should not properly be used as a
| residence street. But the fact remains
that the East Chicago Land company
did build houses there and sold them
| for that purpose with a clause in the
| conveyances STIMULATING that the prop
| erty on the street would never be used
for any other purpose.
Last fall the c., L. S. & E. railroad
wished to get hold of this property and
| a petition was circulated amongst the
property owners asking them to have
the clause stricken from their con-
tracts. All signed 1t but three or -four
but the signatures of every owner in g
block was necessary before any actor
could be taken. Those who refused tt
sign, however all lived in the same
block, and while they stopped actor
on their particular block it did not pre-.
vent the balance of the street from be
ing vacated and taken over by the rail
road.
The railroad company then went be
fore the council and asked to have al
but this one block vacated. The coun
ell acted and did vacate four blocks
but left out two blocks on the far EN-
of the street by what the friends o
the company claim was clerical erro
on the part of the clerk in wording tn
motion. At the last council meetin,
these two blocks were vacated, blu
the minutes of the meeting have no
yet been approved nor has the mayo
signed the order.

FATAL WASH TUB AGAIN
Little Parkside Girl Play
ing in the Kitchen is
Parboiled.

Edith, the two-year-old daughter of
Frank Keegan, was seriously burned
yesterday afternoon at their home in
Parkside and may die from the re-
suits.
The little girl was playing in the
kitchen with her baby sister, when she
ran against tub of boiling hot water
which was spilled over her entire
body. physician was summoned and
her wounds were dressed, but owing
to her tender age the burns are likely
to prove serious.
The mother rushed into the house.
hearing the girls frightened screams,
and nearly tainted when she saw her
little baby had been burned.
Some time ago a similar accident
occurren in South Chicago, the victim
a little boy, dying as the result.
