News of Former College

Hammond young men who attended
Wabash college four or five years ago
and who remember a dark haired good
natured, brilliant young man by the
name of-Roy Massena will be surprised
TO know that he is alleged to be a de-
faulter and is under arrest.
Masssena was one of the most bril-
liant men in his class at school He
with what was known as a shark" in
Latin and Greek and he was so bril-
liant in his studies that he completed
the four year course in three years.
He was a member of the Delta Tau
Delta fraternity and was not only a
leader among the boys. but was also a
society leader. The following Is the
report from Indianapolis of the young
mans downfall.

urer Of Kosciusko county. who has been
in indianapolis for over a year working
as a collector for the Central Union
Telephone company, was arrested yes
terday by Detectives Lancaster, Dun
can and Askin on a charge of alter
ing public records. Charles b Moon.

Massena back yesterday. Massena said

GIRL BLAMES HERFOLKS
Truant Officer T. A. Muzzall
Wants to Find New Home
For Huldah Steinbach.

Juvenile Officer Thomas Muzzau was
in the city yesterday and told a pitiful
story about the environment and sur
roundings of Hulda Steinbach, whose
parents live in Crown Point.
If the story the girl tells is true her
home is nothing short OF a little hades.
She says tht her mother calls her names
which would not be tolerated in the
toughest saloon. She also made charges
against her mother to the truant officer
which were serious.
The girl claims that on several oc-
casions the truant officer has secured a
place for her to work but that on each
occasion her mother would go to her
employer and demand all of her wages.
The girl herself has not a good repu-
tstion in Crown Point but Mr.. Muzzall
thinks that her bad reputation is re
nected upon her by the actions of her
mother rather than by her deeds.
He is making an effort to secure a
place for the girl. who is only 16 years
old. and he hopes to save her in this
manner The truant officer has been
called upon on several occasions to set
tie quarrels in the family.

THEY WILL NOT HAVE IT
Ogden and Other Streets Up
In Arms Over Threats
of Westrumite.

Marion Hover and other of the prop
erty owners on the cross streets south
of Douglas street. which include Og-
den, Doty. Condit and Williams streets
are up in arms at what they claim is
the effort of the city officials to foist
Westrumite paving on them.
Hover said last evening that a re-
monstrance was being circulated among
the property owners and they would
surely knock It out. They have all
decided on brick and they want to see
that pavement laid.
Hover said that the city officials
could take all the Westrumite junket
they wanted to but when it came to
putting down a pavement that he had
to pay for, he wanted something that
was not an experiment.

BUTT WAS FIRES CAUSE
Boarder in Standard Dis
trict Smokes a Cigarette
in His Bed.

The saloon and boarding house of
Milay Boynovich, 95S Columbia avenue
in the Standard Steel Car district, was
threatened with destruction by fire last
night because one of the boarders fol-
lowings his usual practice. smoked a
cigarette in bed
Burning ashes from the cigarette set
the bed clothes afire, leaving the board
er just enough time to make his escape
and give the alarm. The afficacy and
the necessity of a fire department like
No. was again proven. The department
made a quick run to the Standard to
be there in case the flames should get
beyond control. Fortunately No. was
able to cope with the situation alone.

on Sunday Closing and Army

Mrs. John W. Kern of Indiana is not
the member Of the Kern family who is
running for the vice presidency on
the democratic ticket
This was the significant bit of in
formation vouchsafed by no less a per-
son than Mr. Kern himself. when he
stopped in Chicago long enough yes

crowd of reporters and to talk about
things political.

tones What do you think about your

The gentleman from Indiana gazed
his questioners with a look which
spoke eloquently of his thoughts. Then
he followed up that look with this
statement:
MY wife is the best woman in the
world, but she isn't running for the
vice presidency"
Speak for Husband.
Does she speak for you when she
discusses the matters on which she has
talked?" was the next question.
Mr. Kern regarded the ceiling. Then
his gaze rested upon his boots. Then
he had this to say:

and wasn't a candidate for the vice
