SUES WESTERN UNION
u. S. Steel Co. Begins Action
in Lake Superior Court
to Get Damages.

Gilbert R. Call, one of the members
of the law firm of Knapp. Haynie &
Campbell, attorneys for the United
States Steel company, has begun suit
in the superior court to recover the
statutory penalty of 500 for each of
two messages which he sent from In
dianapolis to Gary to John r. Call. the
postmaster.
The messages were instructions
which We're sent to Postmaster Call re
garding certain changes which Gilbert
r. Call wanted to have the working
men who were building his business
block make.
AS a result of the delay in sending
the messages, Mr.. Call claims to have
been damaged to the extent of 5000 in
one case, and 800 in another, and in
all he asks $500 judgment for the fail
ure of the company to send the mes
sages promptly.
Mr.. Call says that one of the mes
sages was sent at $50 in the morning
and the other at $40 and that neither
of the messages reached Gary until
o'clock in the afternoon.

GET THEIR BOYS
Judge w. w. Mcmahon In
terviews Parents and Puts
Boys Under Bonds.

The three boys who were, ssasrestea
yesterday for petit larceny were
brought before Judge William w Nc
Mahon this morning and given a hear
ing. The parents of the boys were
present and their personal appearance
was a surprise to all of the people in
the courtroom.
While the boys were ragged, dirty,
little imps, who looked to be the scum
of the town, the parents were well
dressed and seemed to be respectable
people.
The parents of the boys explained
that they had been allowed to associate
with boys who were bad and that in
this manner they had learned their
bad habits.
The parents of Walter Belicki prom
ised to keep him home and give him
more parental attention, and the par
ents of Stanley and Mike Wachewicz
said that they would send the boys to
a Catholic institution down in Valpa-
raiso, where they would receive the
proper care.
All three of the boys were put un-
der 5000 bonds to keep the peace.

Claude Street Resident
Leaves Neighborhood and
Jolification Ensues.

Charles Roth, who formerly lived in
324 Claude street. has moved to an
other portion of the city, and John
Camp. one of the residents of the
neighborhood, hoisted a flag in honor
of his leaving.
1t appears that Mr.. Roth did not ex-
actly make a hit with the neighbors.
In fact. he was persona non grata with
them, and the upshot of it all was
that after holding the fort for time
he finally took his chattels and left
1t may not have been just the right
thing to do. but the neighbors on
Claude street were so delighted that
they strung a flag across the street,
and today they are celebrating.
Roth considers it a good joke and
the neighbors have had a great deal
of fun over the flag raising. and so
the matter has ended happily all

POLICE IN MAD
DOG CHASE TODAY
Ex- Chief Cox Gives Officers
Ride in Auto and
Doggie is Shot.
WAS AFFLICTED WITH RABIES
Holman Street Is Scene of an
Exciting Mad Dog Chase
Today.

The police had an exciting chase af-
only able to catch up with it and put
an end to it's misery after Lawrence
Cox's automobile had been pressed into
service and the officers were able to
ride ahead of the dog and kill 1T as 1T
came along the street.
The dog started on wild rampage
in the vicinity of the corners of Nor
ton court and State street. 1t went
down West State street to the corner
of State and Holman, where it at
tempted to bite officer Lamb, who was
on duty there.
Doggie Was a Sprinter.
The officer at once notified the po-
lice station and officer Frenck started
out with shotgun to shoot the ami
NAL. The dog ran too fast for Frenck
and just at this time Lawrence Cox
Came along with his automobile.
Mr. Cox had seen the dog and he
stopped the machine and took in the
officer. The machine was then driven
ahead of the animal, and when the ma
chine arrived at the corner of Ogden
and Holman streets the officer shot
the dog from the machine.s
The dog plainly was affected with
the rabies He ran down the street and
snapped right and left at imaginary
objects Froth was also flowing from
his mouth and the police think it for
tunate that it was seen and shot be-
fore it could bite other dogs or per-
haps infect some person with the dead
ly virus.
