TRAINING SCHOOL
 GOOD ATTENDANCE
Roll Gall Monday Morning Showed 1a4 \ Pupils Present.

f The normal training school opened Monday morning under flattering con- ditions. The attendance was 134, di- vided among the eight grades as fol- lows: 1st grade, 25; 2nd grade, 10; 3rd grade, 15; 4th grade, IA; 5th grade, IA; 9th grade, 22; 7th grade. 21; Sth grade 13. It will be noted that the first or primary grade is especially crowded, while the eighth and the sec ond grades are not quite so full The other grades are just about as they should be. It was originally planned to limit each grade to 15 pupils but the demand has. been, so great it has in many instances been found neces- sary to violate this rule and accept a larger number of pupils. It is con- fidently expected that within a few weeks the enrolment of the training school will reach 150.

A NOVEL EVENT
New Stunt is Introduced in
East Chicago Schools
Yesterday.
CONTEST RESULTS IN A TIE
Primary Grade Pupils Given Holt
day and Have a Fine
Time.

The primary grades in the East Chi
cago and Indiana Harbor schools were
given a holiday Wednesday afternoon
while the crack readers" from each
OF the classes competed for honors in
reading contest which was held in the
Lincoln building at the Harbor.
Incidentally forty little wriggling,
twisting primary kids" participated in
r personally conducted expedition,
making use of a special car hired for
their express accommodation. These
were the East Chicago contestants who
had to be taken over to the Harbor
to attend the exercises, and they were
in charge of their various teachers.
After the exhibition was over it was
declared q tie, all of the contestants
doing so we'll that there seemed to be
no choice. BY this same token, one of
the purposes of the exhibition was de-
feated. This was to determine which
method now being taught by the vari-
Gus teachers was productive of the best
results.
NO" declared Superintendent Canine
iaughingly, this morning, II must say I
am as much in the dark as to which
method is the best, as I was before.
The children did so well that they were
uniformly a credit to their teachers and
to the systems for which the latter
were sponsors"
The teachers whose classes partic-
ipated were: Miss Leo. B. Holmes of
the Harrison school. Misses Pearl
Townsend and Lucy Jones of the Nc
Kinley, and Miss Esther McCollum of
the Wallace school, all in East Chicago,
Miss Harriet Stormont of the Field and
Miss Eva Memo Of the Lincoln at the
Harbor.
The participants were placed in one
of the kindergarten rooms while the
exhibition was in progress and were
admitted in squads Of ten, represent
ing each class, to the room where the
demonstration was in progress. A large
number of patrons of the schools were
in attendance.
TT was the best exhibition of the
kind ever given since I have had any
thing to do with the schools of East
Chicago said Mr.. Canine this morning.
Our primary teachers form a strong
branch of the school system as it has
been my aim to see that this depart
ment has the best that it is possible
to provide. The main purpose Of yes
terday's exhibition was an interchange
of ideas among the teachers and to
show the patrons of the schools what
is being accomplished in the schools
along this line"

NEW SCHOOL HOUSE
IS DECIDED upon
Indiana Harbor to Have a
$4,000 Building in the
Near Future.
BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETS
East Chicago Company Offers to
Donate a Site For the
New Structure.

Indiana Harbor is to have a new
$4,000 school building in the near
future and the East Chicago company
has offered to donate a site.
Just what the style of the building
will be has not yet been decided, but
it is to contain twelve rooms and be
possessed of every modern Improvement
in the way of comfort, ventilation,
heating appliances and plumbing.
The East Chicago and Indiana Har-
Dor school board which is composed of
Robert Spear, D. D. Dixon, and James
Spittle, visited South Bend yesterday
in the interests of the proposed new
school. Their object was to inspect
the various schools of the Indiana town
with view to obtaining ideas to be
applied to the new Indiana Harbor
structure. They picked up a lot of
these. having visited every school in
South Bend, and gone over all the
important points with the utmost
care.
Wednesday night the school board
met in public session in the Lincoln
building in the Harbor. The purpose
of the meeting was to announce the
site chosen for the structure and give
the property owners a chance to offer
objections If they saw fit AS no OBJ
| jections were offered it was decided to
accept the offer of the East Chicago
| company who have agreed to donate a
corner at One Hundred and Forty first
street and Parish. avenue This will be
available to the new territory annexed
the other day and which includes
| Grasselli. The only condition named
was that the new $500,0 sewer which
the East Chicago company proposes tC
| buid, go through. Should that pro-
! ject fail, (and there is no reason to be-
| Iieve that 1t wilD then it will be ne
| cessary to secure a site elsewhere.
| There will be a meeting soon tc
determine more fully just what is
wanted in the way of a building.
| 1t is declared that school is badly
| needed at this point and the new
building will doubtless be received with
delight by the people in the district
from which it will obtain its patron
/ age. Especially will it be acceptable
| to the parents of children living in the
| Grasseln district.

GARY MEN SLUGGED
YESTERDAY
Continued from page u.

struck and a deep cash cut in the
head which required several stitches.
Before being taken to his home, how
ever. he secured his revolver and fired
three or four shots at the fleeing men.
None of the shots took effect but two
of them plowed up the sand at their
feet.
After leaving Toleston they headed
directly for Gary. where they event to
the corner of Fifth avenue and Jeffer-
son street and again applied for work
in the same manner. Again they were
refused and they struck the workmen
from the rear and dazed them before
they could lift hand to protect them
selves. There were three men on this
job, but one was on the roof and es-
capped uninjured. BY this time the po-
lice had obtained a full description of
the men and were close upon their
track. The sluggers eluded them, how
ever. after perpetrating the last as
sault and went to the south end of the
city, where they found several Hun
garian carpenters working on a job at
Twenty second street and Madison.
These men were also treated to a
dose of violence and one of the men
was left senseless. By this time the
whole populace was aroused and If
teen citizens of that section of the
town armed themselves at once and
accompanied the police in an effort to
catch and arrest the sluggers. Press
ing a team and wagon into service,
two policemen with the posse whipped
up the horses in the direction that the
men were seen to go and came in sight
of them near the bridge across the
Calumet river. Several times shots
were exchanged by both the pursuers
and the pursued, but when they came
to the river the chase was given up
| and the men made their getaway
When asked the position the union
| took in this matter, President w. H.
Kliver stated that the smuggling was
done entirely without the sanction of
| the carpenters union as a body He
| felt that the men who were responsible
| for the work had gone entirely too
| far and that he himself was heartily
opposed to such methods of brutality
| The cause of the use Of force by the
assaulters is probably due to the fact
that there are now many union men I'M
| employed in the city and some one is at
| tempting to GUST the "scabs" by means
of force. The men who have been VIC

MOVEMENT ON FOOT TO
ESTABLISH AUTO CLUB.
To Be Purely South Chi
cage One-TO Arrange Sunday
Trips.

A movement is now on foot among
the automobile enthusiasts to form an
automobile association for South Chi
cago. There are in the neighborhood
OF two hundred or more machines in
the South Chicago district, and 1t is the
intention of some of the more progress
sive owners to form into an associa-
ton.
The organization will be purely To-
cal one II formed, and will in no way
be connected with the Chicago associa-
ton. The club, If formed, will be for
the sole purpose of arranging Sunday
trips for the members to Indiana or
Illinois points.
Several owners were asked what they
thought Of the project yesterday and
the majority of them seemed to be in
favor Of seeing such a thing go
through.

HERE AND THERE IN The CALUMET REGION
KILLED BY R.R. TRAIN
Shocking Accident at Indi-
ana Harbor to South
Chicago Man.

Joseph Brauer, a Slav, employed by
the Tapp Construction company and
engaged in the work on the Lake
Shore bridge over the canal at Indiana
Harbor, was killed yesterday afternoon
when the Lake Shore Limited which
passes that point shortly after 8 o'clock
in the afternoon, struck him.
Brauer has been living at 1873 Erie
avenue, South Chicago. 1t is said that
he had no business on the track used
by the limited at the time the accident
occurred. At any rate, the engineer
not pause even after his engine had
struck Brauer. but proceeded on its
way, with the same flendish speed
at which it was running before.
Fellow workmen ran to the side of
the dead man and willing hands lifted
him tenderly. His body was not mutt
lated save for an ugly hole in the
side and he apparently died uncon-
scious of what happened to him. 1t is
believed that every bone in his body
was broken and yet his features and
his entire form looked natural in
death.
The body was placed aboard a hand
car and conveyed to the Lake Shore
depot, whence 1t was taken to TeaPs
undertaking rooms where it awaits a
claimant.
Brauer was little known by his fell
low workmen and 1t could not be as
certained whether or no he had a
