WORK Of PAVING
BROADWAY SHIFTED
Condition of Thoroughfare
Will Remain AS It Is
Now Until Spring.

The work of paving Broadway by
many people had thought was stopped,
has shifted to the south end. where the
company is now engaged in construct
ing the crossings at the street inter-
sections the entire length of the street.
The concrete is being put in at the
present time so that when the brick
arrives these crossings will be put in
shape for traffic at the earliest pos
sible time.
The paving of the street was in
spected Monday by A. c. Miller, the
president of the New York Chicago Air
Line company and who is also an Of
ficer of the Gary & Interurban. Mr..
Miller said that the work had not been
stopped on this end of the line, but that
he thought that 1t would be advisable
to have the street crossings put in be-
fore the rest of the pavement is COM
pleted.
| The company is now waiting for the
brick to arrive so that the work in the
first subdivision can be completed. II
is not thought probable that the en-
tie street will be paved this year, but
tnat the pFlch VIII oe put ia dS Aal dS
the Wabash. This means that the re-
mainder of the street will remain in its
present condition until spring. The
brick is expected at any time and the
paving will start at once

TIMES announced some time ago, have
arrived and have been placed on the
icars. The danger to traffic and pedes

WEST|NG-
HOUSE CO.
MAY CONE
Eastern Concern, Which Is
Largest of It's Kind in the
World, May Establish
Itself in the Calumet Re-
gion.

Developments today show TINT there
is a possibility of Garyss locating the
Westinghouse Electric company, the
largest of it's kind In the world, within
its territory. 1t is a fact that they have
been negotiating for tract as land
known as the E. ID. Mandel estate, To-
Gated two miles west of Gary and
owned by a syndicate in Boston.
At present large real estate dealers
about Toleston say that the only hitch
at the present time in the purchase of
the property is that the price asked for
the land is considered too high by the
big Pittsburg concern, and they are now
diozering for a reduction.
Mandel Estate Lands Suitable Site.
The property, known as the Mandel
es ate. is the only large plot of land
west of Gary in a single tract, that
can be procured. On the north and
east of this property is located the hold
ings of the Gary Land company; on
the south is the city of Toleston, where
the lots have already been subdivided,
and east of this estate is the corporate
limits of East Chicago, where the tracts
have also been divided.
This piece of property, therefore, is
the logical site for this enormous in
dustry, which will. If it is located here
cover several thousand acres of land
The tract is crossed by the Elgin, JoI-
let & Eastern railroad and the Calumet
river which in time is expected to be
the connecting link of a chain of har-
bors.
Outlook Is Good.
The property, which is owned by the
Boston syndicate, has for its. loca
agents, the B. N Branch Real Estate
company, 20 Dearborn street, Chicago
This firm is the one which has been ne.
gotiating with the Westinghouse com
pany and the reports which have beer
emanating from their office are to tn.
effect that they believe the deal will
be consummated.
The Westinghouse company is nov
located at East Pittsburg and employ
from ten to eighteen thousand men
Although several interested in the dea
say that the proposed Gary plant is t,
be a western branch, others maintain
that the main plant will be located II
this city. If the latter is true, it i
likely that there will be as many as tel
thousand men employed in the works
Biggest Thing Beside the Mills.
Those who have been directly inter
ested in the deal have been reticen
about giving out any information, blu

in the vicinity have been watching TIL

GEORGE IS A
REGULAR TERROR
Gary Lad Arms Himself
With Big Dirk and
Heavy Blackjack.
THEN STARTS FOR TOLEDO
Marshal Klopf Cops Him at Miller
and George Is Yanked
Home.

Another affection by the fever of
wanderlust yesterday caused George
Sherman of Gary, IA years old, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Edward Phillips, to leave
his home, 745 Maryland street, and
start out to cross the country on foot
The trip ended at Miller, however, in
the most humiliating manner, as Mar
shall Edward Klopf having been notified
that the boy had ran away picked him
up as he was strutting through the city
bound for Toledo, Ohio.
Around the child, filled to the brim
with braggadoccio, was leather belt
in which a large butcher knife was
sheathed and in his hip pocket was
found a blackjack. George didn't mind
the long walk to Miller and the pros
pect of not having any place to sleep
that night, but how he did hate to be
arrested with all of those implements
of war on him. Mr.. and Mrs. Phillips
were notified and they went to Miller at
once and brought rneir child back.
Second Trip In Two Months.
This is the second time within a few
months that the Sherman boy has tried
to run away from home. The first time
the boy purchase ed an air rifle and with
a handful of charges started to make
the trip to Toledo. Ohio. He was in
tercepted at that time before he had
made much Roadway. Yesterday he
made the start at s o'clock and was
! caught at o'clock in the afternoon.
The objective point of the child's trip
was Toledo, Ohio, where his grand
mother resides
MY grandmother gives me cookies
and jam and lots Of nice things to eat"
said George, "and 1 wanted to go there
and live with her. I knew mamma
would not let me go, so 1 thought that
l would run away. My mother and
father always make me go TO school
and l don't like to go to school.
would rather run away than go to
school another day
When George was taken back home
last night he promised to be good,
| however, and never to run away from
home again. He was also glad to get
back.

progress closely, owing to the great
boom their property will receive in
case the plant is located. The prices
of the land in the region about the
Mandel tract will probably double the
minute that the industry is made an
as sured thing.
This industry, if located in the re-
gion, will undoubtedly be the biggest
thing outside of the Indiana Steel
company Being located in the city of
Gary. on the western boundary, it will
not only tend to make Gary bigger
and greater city, but will tend to ce-
ment the cities of Indiana Harbor, East
Chicago, Whiting and Hammond into
one big municipality.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inhamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh. which is moth
ing but an infian,ad condition of the
mucous surfaces.
