TRIES TO STEAL DUMMY
Frank Patrick Comes to
Trouble in Gary Last
Evening.

A .laughable incident occurred in
Gary yesterday when Frank Patrick,
one of the Pecks bad boys of Gary,
saw a dummy in the Gary theater
which is known as Happy Hooligan.
He decided that he would like to
have the dummy and proceeded to steal
it. Some one saw him take 1t and
telephoned to the police station where
the information was given that there
had been a kidnapping on Broadway
in broad daylight.
The police came running to the scene
and seeing the boy running with the
dummy started out to arrest the Gull
prit They found that the boy had
nothing but the Happy Hooligan dunn
my but they arrested him nevertheless
and he was taken to the station.
It is expected that the police will be-
gin to appreciate the joke soon and
the boy will be allowed to go his way
with the injunction that he let Happy
Hooligan alone in the future.

Gary Property Owners Take
Steps to Have the

The first step in the efforts that are
being made by the property owners
on Washington street in Gary to COM
pei the railroads to remove the OBJ
structions which now divide the north
ern from the southern part of the
street, was successful.
Attorney Franklin Fetterer. who rem
resented the property owners, secured
an order from the Superior court at
Hammond in which the Gary and
western. the Michigan Central and the
Pennsylvania railroads are asked to
remove the distractions on Washing
ton street or show cause why they
should not do So

The Gary and Western has already
elevated across the street and in fact
has left but one street, Broadway.
fromm from obstruction The property
owners on the south side saw at once
that the value of their property would
be impaired and resorted to the courts
for relief.
The court demands that on or before
June IL the railroads shall remove
their obstruction. This, in the case
of the Michigan Central and the Penn
and the slight elevation of the road

The prosecution of the case was un-
dertaken by the members of the asso-

| 1t is believed that If the Washing

their efforts they will be followed by
those on many of the other parallel

manner.
