Mr. Bonnell rode up TO the Lion store

Frenck Locates the Thief.
Mr.. Bonnel went at once to look for
an officer and located Fred Frenck on

TO the officer and the chase started.
Frenck trailed the bicycle thief to Cost

avenue towards Hegewisch.
Although Frencks wheel gave out
and he was compelled to borrow anoth-
er, he succeeded in catching the thief
and placed him under arrest.
The man gave his name as John Ko-

Chicago. 1t happened that while Of

cycle thief, his partner, who had stoler
a wheel from in front of f. c. Minas

getaway.
OF course the officer did not know
that he was within easy grasp of an
other bicycle thief, or he probably
would have bagged them both. The
men are charged with petit larceny anc

The second wheel belonged to Klitzkt

SIM COTTON SLUGGED

Sim Cotton of Hammond was the vic
tim of an assault early this morning.
He was just coming out of the Majestic
buffet when two pluguglies jumped on
him. One struck him a vicious blow
in the face and another kicked him in
the shins.
One of the men shouted, You're the
man we are looking for" and then the
assault took place, Mr.. Cotton says
that he never saw the men before. He
does not know any one who has a
grudge against him.
In his opinion, the men were pro-
fessional sluggers who have been hired
to come out to Hammond and intimi-
date the voters His was the first
trouble of election day.
He presented a sorry appearance this
afternoon. He has a badly blackened
eye and he is compelled to walk with a
cane Mr. Cotton's friends are indig
nant at the outrage and an effort will
be made to locate the sluggers.

THROUGH

Runaway Horse Dashes Mad
ly Down Holman Street
and Runs Into Plate Glass
in Ortt's Store in Ham

to see large draft horse hitched to a
heavy lumber wagon come tearing down
South Holman street from the south.

Ing vehicle the horse turned off Fay
cite street and plunged squarely into a
large plate glass window In Orth &
TosvIe's shoe store In the Hammond
building.
The horse was thrown part way
through the window and then fell back
on the sidewalk where it lay painting
and bleeding from great cash cut in
the flesh between the forelegs.
In some unaccountable manner Mr..
Manikowski, the driver, clung to the
wagon and escaped being hurled by the
impact through the window into the
store. 1t is remarkabl BILE in view of the
fact that the horse was running at
break-neck speed that the driver was
not killed.
Fortunately Mr.. Ortt, who was in the
store at the time, saw the horse COM
ing and had time to warn Miss Anna
kruse. who was also in the store, to
get out of the way. He saw the horse

him suddenly veer off towards his win
dow, he saw the terrified driver make
an effort to pun the horse into Fayette
street and then there was a terrible
crash
| It seemed to Mr.. Ortt as though the
whole outfit, horse. driver. wagon and
all would come plunging through the
window. The only thing which pre-
vented it was the fact that one of the
Iafts struck the windows sill and
that stopped the runaway.
The horse lay on the sidewalk for a
few. minutes while those who had gath
cred at the scene disentangled the har-
ness. The horse was examined by
Veterinary Glen Ebright, who stated
that the cash in its neck were not

one elector for each United States SEN

gress. The college, therefore. this year
contains 4S3 electors. The successful
