Moving Pictures.

Moving picture cameras are remark
able pieces of mechanism. The films
are only three-quarters of an inch
wide. These are in rolls, sometimes 800
feet long. When taking pictures the
camera man reels off these rolls Just
as rapidly as they are unreeIed when
thrown upon the canvas for the spec
tator, at rate Of ten or twelve films
a second. Moving pictures are simply
a number Of views thrown upon a
white sheet one after another so rapid
~ that the eye cannot detect the inter
walls.

POLICE COURT.
AND PLEADS GUILTY,

On the complaint of his wife, Walter
Prietz aged 90. stationary engineer,
was arrested through a warrant sworn
out in the city court yesterday and
charged with fornication. He was re-
leased on his own recognizance and
this morning appeared for trial in
Judge McMahon's court. He pleaded
guilty to the charge and was fined $40
and costs which was paid by friends.
Some unusual features were presented
in the case when Prietz told the police
his troubles. When he and his wife
separated he went to New York City
and lived there awhile and voted there.
When he came back to Indiana and di-
vorce proceedings were begun he found
that he could not get a, divorce because
he had lost his residence. Prietz
claims that he met a young woman
whom he befriended and when she fell
sick he assisted her in several ways,
and the complaint made by his wife is
the outcome.

FIND TRACE OF PURSE
IN CHICAGO STORE.
Miss Anna CuIlinine Learns That Her
Money Was Stolen.

There is in Hammond today a woman
who is a thief and knows it, although
there is apparently no one else in Ham
mond who is aware of the facts. Two
or three weeks ago while Miss Anna
Culinine, one of the local school teach
ers, was on the way into Chicago, she
left her peck book in the Nickel
Plate depot and after the train had
ben stopped and she returned to the
spot where she had been seated she
discovered that some one had taken it,
A woman, whom she would know If
she could meet her again, was in the
depot at the same time and she is
suspected of taking the poeket-book.
Miss Culinine has given up hopes of
getting back the $40 which the purse
contained when she received a note
from Siegel & Coopers in Chicago, stat
ing that a purse containing her card
had been found in the store.
Miss CuIihine went to Chicago to get
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1908-04-13

the purse, although she was confident
that the money would not be in it.
She found the purse, but as she ex-
pected the money was gone. The Ham
mond woman, who ever she is, had
spent 1t and fearing to bring the purse
back to this city. left 1t in the store.
1t is possible that the thief may be
apprehended, but Miss Culinine, who
took her loss bravely, is not counting
on that and she is even charitable
enough to admit that she would not
prosecute the woman if the money is
only returned to her.
