GARY CONCERN QUITS
Brewing Company Will Not
Build But Looks Else
where For Location.

The saloon agitation has resulted in
the loss to Gary of its first industry, the
Gary Brewing Company, a concern
which purchased three and one-half
acres of land in Toleston, where the
Pennsylvania and Michigan Central
tracks and Main street intersect and
paid $4,000 for the property, has de-
cided not to build and will look else
where for location
The Gary Brewing company is cor
poration Differed by Cincinnati BUSH
ness men who not only proposed to put
up a 500, 900 plant, and had all of the
plans ready, but expected to Increase
its capacity until it should be one of
the largest breweries in Indiana
The plans for the new plant were all
out and it was expected to begin build
ing operations in a very short time.
Just when the company was about to
break ground for the foundations of
the buildings. the word was received in
Cincinnati that there was being circu-
lacted in Gary a remonstrance against
the saloon and the company called a
halt on the contractors and awaited
the developments.
The developments came in the form
of an adverse decision on the part of
the commissioners and it was seen that
it would be folly to attempt to build
a brewery in the face of a situation
like that.
The Cincinnati Brewers took into
consideration the fact that there is a
strong anti-saFoon sentiment In Indi-
ana and backed up their plans and
went back to Cincinnati
The people of Toleston are very much
chagrined to know that they are to
lose the only industry which has re-
Gently located in their city and the
blame is placed on the remonstrance.

Burglars last night entered the home
of Emil Winter, One Hundred and
Eighth street, and Michigan avenue
and stole goods and valuables to the
amount of $500.

of the side windows and was undoubt-
eddy the work of experts. The burg

have began an investigation which they
believe will result in the apprehension
of the light fingered men.

the Nichols beach stand of w. Parker,
at Seventy sixth street and Lake ave
nue. and stole eleven boxes of cigars
and two bottles of Bond ginger ale.
This is the third robbery Of the year so

and the different business men believe
that the classy little suburb is getting
to be the stamping grounds for a band
of organized thieves.
The loss was reported to the South
Chicago police, who have been on the
lookout all day for the guilty parties
but so far have made no progress.
George Ennie, age %, was arrested
yesterday by the police of the Thir-

STICKING TO THE DISAGREEABLE JOB.

It IS the man who can stick to the disagreable iob do 1t with energy and vim, the man who can force himself to do good work, when he does not feel like doing it-in other words the man who IS master of himself who has great purpose, and who holds himself to his aim, whether il IS agreeable dsagreeable whether he feels like 1t or does not feel like it-tha wins
 It IS easy to do what IS agreeable, to keep at the thing we like and are enthusiastic about: but 1t takes real grit to try to put whole soul into that which IS dstasteful and against which our nature protests, but which we are compelled to do for the sake of others who would suffer if we did not do 1t.
 To go every morning with stout heart and an elastic step, with courage and enthusiasm to work which we are not fitted for and were not intended to do, work against which our very natures protest just because 1t IS our duty, and to keep this up, year in and year out, requires heroic qualities Success
