HOBART DID NICELY
Many Surprises in the Vot-
ing Take Place in
That Town.

Hobart township stuck TO the good
old republican ship yesterday and gave
Taft a majority in its three precincts
of 1873. Watson did not run quite as
well but secured a majority OF III at
that.
Tom Grant was a favorite in this
township to the extent of a majority
of EOS. With this majority Grant
went over to Center township where
he was knitted by a large number of
people there, and neutralized the Cart
err vote.
Home rule in Hobart was defeated by
a majority Of 1856. That Mickey should
defeat Ed Simon in this township was
another of the surprises OF the cam
paign.
That Judge Virgil S. Reiter is well
liked in Hobart and its environs is
shown by the fact that his majority
over McMahon. for the office of judge
of the Lake superior court was DAB, and
his place on the ticket is right under
that of Edgar D. Crumpacker, whose
majority was 259 and who led the tick
ct with that number of votes.

LITTLE BET IS BAD ONE
It Caused the Arrest of Two
Gary Saloonkeepers
Yesterday.

Martin Bennett and William Piper,
two Gary saloonkeepers, have decided
that after this they will never permit
a Gary policeman to hold stakes on
election bets.
Bennett wanted to back up his
statements with something more tang
ible than words, told Piper that he
would bet ten dollars on Grant, while
Piper was just as confident of Cart
er's election. It was easy to make
the bet but there was no stakeholder
in sight, and Sergeant Catey of the
Gary police force. coming along just
at this time, the two men thrust their
money into his hands, telling him the
purpose of it. Very deliberately the
officer of the law put the money in his
pocket. and, laying on hand on each
shoulder of the bettors. said, You are
under arrest for betting on election
and marched the saloonkeepers to the
bastile. They furnished bond and will
have their trial this afternoon.

TOWN BOARD
IN SESSION TODAY
Interview With Interurban
Promoter Tells of
Plans.

The Gary town board is in session
this afternoon and several very i'm
portant matters are up for considera-
ton before the board.
]. c. Keator one Of the promoters
of the new VaIparaiso-Gary electric
line, is at the meeting of the board and
it is expected that franchise will be
given to him If peaceable settlement
can be arranged between the new COM
pany and the Gary and Interurban. Mr..
Keator said the articles of incorpora-
ton of the new company had been fled
at Indianapolis last week and they
were now authorized to do business in
the state.
I'VE are exceedingly anxious to be-
gin the construction of. the new line. "
said Mr.. Keator today. 1T is our plan
to start the grading at Valparaiso the
moment we get our franchise in Gary.
If the work of grading is started now
we expect that it will be finished by the
early part OF the year"
The question of stringing the wires
of the Gary Heat, Light and Water
company on the Gary and Interurban
poles is also being considered.

A Lost Dime.

A man one day called upon the first
John Jacob Astor with a business
proposition which demanded an in
vestment of 100000 on his part While
listening to the plan he kept cropping
and feeling about on the floor for
something he seemed to have dropped.
When the plan had been explained he
said readily: "Al right III furnish
the money" At that instant a man
entered to tell him that one of his
buildings had burned down.
THAT happens nearly every day"
he said. with the utmost unconcern.
and went on feeling about with great
care for that something on the carpet.
Finally the visitor was curious enough

The Argument of Gold.

A man who is furnished with argu-
ments from the mint will convince his
antagonist much sooner than one who
draws them from reason and philoso-
ply. Gold is a wonderful clearer of
the understanding; it dissipates every
doubt and scruple in an instant; &C
commodities itself to the meanest ca
pacities; silences the loud and clamor-
Gus, and brings over the most OBJ
stinate and infiexible.
Philip of Macedon was a man of
most invincible reason this way. He
refuted by il. all the wisdom of Athens,
COMPOUNDED their statesmen, struck
their orators dumb, and at length
argued them out of all their liberties

at Washington, who said: Speak"

Not at all, gentlemen, said the
orator, visibly irritated He said. as
every well-informed person knows:
Speak SOFTLY even while carrying the
big stick If l am interrupted again"
here he waved the chairman's gavel
aloft-'T shall use the big stick I'M

Having thus asserted himself and
sileneed the rude persons who had
been guilty of the unseemly interrupt
ton, he resumed his speech.

The Cruelty of ThouahtIessnes..

Most of the cruelty of the world is
thoughtless cruelty. Very few people
would Intentionally add to another's
load or make his burden in life heavier
or his path rougher Most Of the great
heart wounds are inflicted by thought
less thrusts, flung out often in a mo-
ment of anger, when perhaps we were
too proud to apologize or to try to heal
the grievous wounds we had made.
Can anything be more cruel than to
discourage a soul who is struggling to
do the best he can, to throw stumbling
blocks in the path of those who are
trying to get on in the world against
great odds?
No life is just the same after you
have once touched it. VIII you leave
a ray of hope or one Of despair, a fash
of light or somber cloud across some
da%z life each day? VIII you by
thoughtless cruelty deepen the shadow
which hangs over the life or will you
by kindness dispel it altogether? No
matter how you feel or what is dis
turbing your peace of mind, never al
low yourself to send out a discourag-
ing, a cruel or an unkind word or
thought.-Success Magazine.

fine PROGRESS MADE
New Emerson School Build

Be Done.

The work on the new Emerson
school building is progressing rapidly
and Contractor Gerhard seems well
pleased with the progress of the work
so far.
A large force of men are now en-
ployed on the new structure and from
now on the work will be marked, so as
to try and get the building enclosed
before cold weather arrives, as it will
greatly hamper the work. The great
er part of the structural work is now
completed. although it will be at least
two weeks before the building reaches
its height. The heaviest part of the
work is now DONE" said Mr.. Gerhard

Be Burned Down.

Mrs. C. f. Barnes, of Gary, living at
125 Fourth avenue. near Adams street.
has appealed to the police for protec-

burned down. Mrs. Barnes lives in a
shack like her neighbor's. the Jabol-

Jabolonskis had threatened to burn
down their own shack and fearing that
through this the Barnes shack would
catch fire, she has asked the police to
give her protection.

Scotsman Not Wanted.

Some years ago. Sir James Browne
had an amusing encounter with a col
ored official at Kingston. Jamaica. So
far away from home, the famous doc,
tor was, no doubt, a little homesick,
and he hoped that he might be able
to come across some of his own coun-
trymen. Are there many Scotsmen
in these parts?" he inquired of the
said official. Not many" replied the
latter; lust a few-but quite enough"
