HUNAH BANK IS FOUND
Standard Steel Car District
Gets a Sensation This
Morning.

If the people of the Standard district
in East Hammond had known that Joe
Kousina, who has a saloon on Colum-
bia avenue, has been carrying around
$4.850 in Uncle Sans green paper
money, it is very likely they would
have provided him with a bodyguard.
What is more. Kousina's life was
endangered by the fact that he has
been drinking so much that he has
been dopy for several weeks, and it
would have been an easy matter for a
crook or a thief to have stolen the
whole bale of bills.
The fact that the human bank was
wandering about the Standard district
was brought out when he got into
trouble with Frances Leis, his afhn-
ity, to whom he is not married but
who has a child of which he is the
father.
Joe Kousina is the heir to a fortune
of $4,000. He has a wife in the old
country. and in order to make things
all right with her he made a settle
ment for $4,000
Puts Rest in Bank.
The rest of the fortune. $4,000, he
put in bank in the old country.
When he went back to Europe to
get rid of his first wife he brought
back with him $1,000 He carried this
money in cash with him all the way
back instead of getting a letter of
credit or having it sent to this country
by draft. The wonder is that he
was able to get through New York
without losing the fortune
When he got back to Hammond he
found that his affinity had not been
true to him but had been going around
with number of other men This
made him angry and he decided to
throw over the Hammond woman.
He made settlement with her by
which he gave her his saloon on Co
lumbia avenue. but she was not salts
fed with that. 1t is said they had some
trouble in which he slapped her
number of times and then threatened
her with gun. The police at the sta
tion are still trying to clear up the
case.

TeIis why He Convened 1t.
In beginning the governor said,

In beginning the governor said:
You are convened in extraordinary
session because the welfare of the
state demands it." He then expressed
the opinion that unity of action and
ssingleness of purpose would permit of
an early adjournment. Launching with
out further introduction into the sub
3ect of appropriation he depicted the
need of reappropriating specific appro-
prfations TO prevent unexpended bal
ances from reverting to the general
fund at the end of the fiscal year. Sept.
30 He showed that reversion would
halt the work on many public improve
ments and that this would result in
much damage. In concluding, he said:
I cannot urge these institutional
deeds too earnestly. Failure will mean
substantial loss to the state, embarrass-
ment to contractors and may lead to
many legal complications"
Recommends Enactment of Law.
In regard to the Night Riders he
recommended the enactment Of a law
making the destruction of tobacco
either in the fields or in the barns a
criminal offense. He asked for legisla-
ton enabling the governor to appoint
persons to act as secret service officers
to detect violations, these officers to
have powers
The history of the vincennes claim
was reviewed and legal opinions were
appended to show that the claim has
no standing either in law or equity. He
asked for the repeal of the law ac-
knowledging the claim. This claim
aggregates in principal and interest
more than $156,000.
Real Meat of Cocoanuf
Then came the utterances on county
local option which constituted the real
meat of the cocoanut. In beginning he
said:
The welfare Of the state, viewed
from either a moral or an economic
standpoint requires the enactment of
a law giving to the qualified voters of
the respective counties of the state the
right to vote upon the question of the
exclusion of the liquor traffic from any
such county. In my Judgment it is
both expedient and right that this
legislation be enacted now"
The governor then declared that the

The new convention drafted at the Berlin
Conference on International Copyright Is a
highly interesting document. The delegates
arrived at some important conclusions, though
in regard to one burning question they fell
short of complete harmony. 1t had been hoped
that something would be done to establish IN
ternatonaI uniformity in the duration of copy
right From France came the proposal that the
time limit should be made fifty years after the
death of an author. This idea was received
with 4 coed deal of sympathy, but difficulties
were raised by the British delegates, and DEL
mite settlement has still to be arranged There
was happy unanimity where the question OF
foreign rights was concerned. According to the
new convention, as traversed in The London
Times" IAN authors rights over tranSlatlohS
of his works will be the same as over the
works themselves and Darwin, a Kelvin, or
q Leroy -Beaueu will have the same control
over his books that appear in a foreign IAN
cl.age as he has in the language in which they
were written From single conference OF
this sort it is OF course, not to be expected that
a convention satisfactory to every one would
emerge but something is always gained. 1t Is
significant that the delegates at Berlin dis
closed Il genuine feeling for the international
character of their mission and steadily kept
In view the ideal of worldwide uniformity
which is dictated by convenience, if by nothing
else.

In the case Of Jacob Jordaens the task Of criti-
cism has not been so simple. There was

MONSTER POWER

A monster power plant, capable
of producing $4,000 horsepower, is
what is planned by the Wenatchee
Electric company of this city. The
plant is to be installed on the Icicle
river, short distance west of Leav-
enworth.
In an interview with Arthur Gum,
president OF the coml\ny, gave out
the following today:
There is no use keeping the mat
ter secret, and the report that we
are to build such a plant is correct

that we can furnish power at a
cheaper rate from here than can be
furnished at any other place in the
state, except Chelan Falls, which will
be used for railroad purposes.
sWenatchee now uses 800 horse
power as now installed.
Construction work will begin as
soon as preliminaries are concluded,
and our plant will be at work within

SANS
Takes Three Falls Out of Sans Inside
of One Hour, Winning the
Match.

Before small crowd of sports last
evening Billy Watson of Eureka, Cal,
threw w H Sans of Wenatchee three
times within an hour and takes the
purse. Watson weighed in at 164
pounds, and Sans expected to weigh
il about 15H, but was considerably
lighter. Nevertheless, Sans was there
with the goods, and had he been as
heavy as his opponent there might
have been a different story to tell {.
By his skill and good headwork he
matched Watson in the opening bout,
but in the latter bouts Watson's su-
perior weight told and wore down his
lighter opponent.
The interest was good and the
match was unlike many wrestling
bouts in that both men were in earn
est, and there was an absence of list
lessness usually evident in matches of
this sort. The small audience may
be explained by the fact that the con-
testants were not well known in this
vicinity. The sports who attended
felt well repaid for their efforts, and
it is to be regretted that no more in
terest was displayed
The preliminarieS were good, two
clever sparring exhibitions being pull
ed off Both were draws In the first
bout of the main exhibition both men
fought cautiously for openings, Wat

MORE ABOUT
THE HORSE
THIEVES
All," According to Copy of Song
Found on Eeach.

Here is some more information In
regard to the young horse thieves
who met an untimely end in Brook
Lake near Stratford a week ago.
The Wilson Creek World says:
Some letters were found on the
person of young Hadfield from his
mother in England, also from his
English sweetheart, and from a lady
at Sylvania, Ohio. They all breather
the highest regard for the young
man, and his mothers letters were
full of counsel that he lead correct
life. Both mother and sweetheart
were exceedingly anxious that he re-
turn to England at the earliest OPP
portunity and the news of his un-
timely death will be shocking to
both. 1t was clear that his intention
was to return home next fall If he
could be sufficiently successful. The
young man had not, apparently, been
prompt correspondent and for sew
eral months his relatives had heard
no word from him. Since coming to
America, probably about a year or
two ago, he had been almost all
over the northern half of the United
States, as references were made in
the letters to Battle Greek. Mich,
Sylvania, o., st. Louis, Mo-, Chicago,
ILL.,, and Roseburg, Ore. He had evil
IDENTIFY at one time been employed by
a farmer named Eagle on rural route
No. 1, near Sylvania, o. The evil
dence given by the letters clearly
show that he was of good breeding,
and the one act which led to his
death was probably the only misstep
of his existence.
Each of the men had copy of
the following song, the sentiment Of
which evidently appealed strongly to
them, 1t was copied on the busi-
ness letter head of j. w. Hamilton,
