CHIEF FEELEY HANDS
OUT SOME ADVICE
Tells Gary People to Call
Number o Over the
Phone.

In discussing the organization of the
new fire department Chief Feeley said
yesterday that he was satisfied with
the equipment which has been fur
nishd him by the board with the ex-
ceptfon OF the difficulty in getting in a
fire alarm.
Tn a fire. said the chief, ''every
minute counts. Three or four minutes
may mean the saving or destruction
of a building. The method that the
people have of sending in fire alarm
therefor is SO slow, that we are great
ly Inconvenience when we attempt to
respond. In the day time we now have
the telephone and until the saloons
close at night. but after that time we
must depend solely upon shots fired
in the air or someone coming to the
station
Ut may be-" he continued. that we
will not hear the shots fired at once
and that we will be delayed in re-
spending. I believe that the city should
as soon as possible put in a fire alarm
system. or course, 1t will mean big
expense, but a FIRE department with
out a fire alarm system Is badly handi-
capped.
The people should also endeavor tc
remember that the number of out tele-
phone at the central station is Gary
o. and when sending in an alarm they
should not fail to ask for that mum

INSANE WOMAN
PERMITTED At LARGE
Demented Mother Makes the
Night Hideous With
Her Cries.
| AUTHORITIES ARE APPEALED TO
Kind Neighbors Care for Children in
Dooley Family at Indiana
Harbor.
AUTHORITIES ARE APPEALED TO
Especial to THE TIMEs.)

Indiana Harbor, Ind, Dec. %. - With
her frantic cries for aid ringing in their
ears, neighbors of Mrs. David Dooley,
who was recently declared insane by a
commission in Judge G. E. Reiland's
court, yesterday reported to the police
that the woman's condition is rapidly
becoming worse. During the night she
wakens from her sleep and utters loud,
terrified shrieks, which can easily be
heard for 200 or 800 feet from the
house. The nightly rawlings of the wo-
man are beginning to disturb her
neighbors, too. while sympathising with
the unfortunate mother, feel that she
should be taken to the insane hospital
at Logansport as soon as possible.
Commissioners Charles Mueller yes
terday telegraphed to the officials of
the insane hospital at Longcliffe re-
guessing them to send the necessary adj
mission certificate at once, as the wo-
mans condition precludes her safe
keeping except by p,oper authorities.
Clothing is being received daily for
the children, who are fast gaining their
healthy appearance, due to the admin
istering of plenty of good food to the
starved infants. The babes are still un-
der the care of their neighbors on Elm
and One Hundred and Thirty seventh
streets, and are apparently well pleased
with their new homes. An East Chica-
go woman, whose husband enjoys a
good position with local railroad. has
asked Chief of Police Higgins to in
tercede for her and secure the adoption
of the little 4-months- daughter. The
| woman in question has no childaren
and would be able to give the child a
good home. Chief of Police Higgins
has promised this petitioner to do all in
his power to induce the father to sepa-
rate his family and is awaiting the lat
| ter's answer with interest.

SALOONKEEPER WARNED
House of Sherpatoski" Is
Threatened by Prosecut-
ing Attorney Boone.
Especial to THE TIMES. }

East Chicago, Ind, Dec. 22-"Steve
Sherpatoski," Numbered Prosecutor d.
E. Boone yesterday afternoon, during
the trial of a case in Judge William
A Rei1and's court. You have given
me more trouble and anxiety than any
other saloonkeeper in Lake county.
Hereafter you will close your saloon
promptly at II o'clock, keep closed on
Sundays and on Christmas, or l will in
struct the police to arrest you
The Harbor saloonkeeper fairly shook
as the states attorney hurled the
words at him. The sensational state
ment was made during the trial of a
dog license case. In which the Harbor
saloonkeeper was charged with having
failed to pay his dog tax. Sherpatoski
declared that he was innocent of the
charge and made no reply to the heat
ed retort of the Hammond lawyer.
Sherpatoski has a long police rec
ord and at the present time has suits
for damages of $4,000 standing against
Officers Weifenbach and German. His
saloon on Guthrie street has been the
scene of more than one fight and the
police have become heartily disguised
with his manner of doing business.
They may be depended upon to fol-
low out any instructions given them by
Mr.. Boone regarding the Guthrie street
dealer and unless his edict is complied
with in the very letter the House of
Sherpatoski" will be no more, and Sher-
pie himself will once more be brought
before the court on charge of keeping
his booze emporium open on the first
| day of the week

asked for an injunction in the superior
court at Hammond restraining the exc
cution OF the judgment for $40 against
Apperson & Vallette, the real estate
men, which was secured by Borman
Bros, the owners of the Borman build

real estate men for rent which they
said was still due them during the time
that they occupied their quarters.

however. that the defendants were out

fault. When he returned, however Mr.

money and wished to have the owners
of the building restrained from collect

WORK ON NEW CITY
HALL TO Be BEGUN
Gary to Have Finest Mu-
nicipal Building in the
Calumet Region.

Contrary to the original plans, the
work on the new $4,000 Gary city hall
will not be delayed until next sum-
mer but will begin at once Bids will
be received this afternoon on the ex
cavation so that this part of the work
can be done before the frost gets in
the ground.
The magnificent new city hall, which
will be completed within a year. will be
the finest municipal building in Lake
county, despite the fact that Hammond.
East Chicago. Whiting and Indiana
Harbor are all older cities than Gary.
The new municipal administration
building will be located at the corner
of Seventh avenue and Massachusetts
street, and will be city hall and fire
department combined.
The reason for the decision of the
city officials to begin the work of con-
structing the new city hall at once, is
to provide quarters for the central fire
department and place to house the
equipment which has just been pur-
chased.
The new city hall is to be built with
the money that was realized from the
sale of bonds which were recently dis
posed of at such good terms. The ar
chitect of the new hall is J. ]. Ham
mons of Gary, and the plans are said
to provide for modern and complete
building.
The city hall will also house the po-
lice department. and as the arm of the
law is now huddled together in an i'm
provised police headquarters that is
very small and inconvenient, this is
thought to be another reason for hur-
rying the building of the new city hall
This will be the first building of 9
public nature that will grace the city
of Gary, and the people there hope te
be able to point with pride to 1t wher
| 1t is completed.

state management, it would still be bad
enough. But the way these hunkies'

tiers of Sumter in Americus on Thurs
day The speaking will begin at 10

Col Cox will speak of the Guber-

to the people his reasons for support
ing Mr.. Brown
No man in public life in Georgia
is better equipped for an address on
this subject. He has been in position
to take live notes on the situation,
having watched with observant eyes
every move of the administration and
noted the tendency of those move
ments
While Col. Cox has the reputation
of being a witty speaker it is also
true that he is a dealer in facts, plain
cold facts, and few men have the
faculty of presenting them so that
they may be fully understood as Col
Cox.

.RICHLAND TO COME FOR
A GAME IN AMERICUS
Baseball This Afternoon at
Park.

Manager Bell of the Americus team
succeeded yesterday in arranging with
Richland for game here this after
noon. Richland had a very good bunch
last season and claims to be able
to make an even better showing this
year. The game will begin at
o'clock, and doubtless a great au-
dience will go out to see the Ameri-.
Gus boys and the Stewart countians
mix up balletically. Manager Bell
also has request from the Emory
College team to play a series of
three games in Americas early in
June, and a date for these freshmen
will be arranged. The Americus club
is open for engagements with any
amateur club in Georgia, and hopes to
get into many good games during
the season.
