ATTY. R. G. CALL IS ILL
Harry Call of Gary Sudden
ly Called to the Bedside
of His Cousin.

Attorney G. r. Call, of the law firm
of Knapp, Haynie & Campbell, and a
cousin of Attorney H. v. Call, of Gary,
has been taken seriously Ill at the
Presbyterian hospital. Chicago, where
he recently underwent an operation for
appendicitis. So serious was Mr. Calls
condition that Attorney K. K. Knapp
telephoned for his cousin to come to
Chicago at once and the latter spent
the afternoon at his bedside in Chi
|cago.
few days ago Mr.. Call was taken
i'll and latter the case developed into
appendicitis it was not thought that
his condition was so serious and an
attempt was made to avoid an opera
ton. 1t proved, however, that the OPP
esation was delayed too long At first
he rallied nicely, but latter the steel
corporation attorney took turn fol-
the worse.
Mr.. G. r. Call is well known in GARY
where he has represented railroads and
the steel company in litigation and In
manners connected with the towr
board. Mr.. Call is also owner of the
Cali building on Broadway, between
sixth and Seventh avenues. This build.
/ ing is a three store-room and ONCE
building, and is one of the fnesi
finished buildings on the street. Mr.

TO BUILD CASINO
WITHIN SIX DAYS
Work on the New Building
Commenced at Noon
Today.
WILL UTILIZE THE BASEMENT
VIII Have Four Regulation Bake
Alleys There-Vill Be Scene
of Many Matches.

Within less than a week from the
time that the Gary Casino was Destroy
ed by fire work will start on the re-
building OF the structure
Arran gements were made this morn
ing and the deal closed wherein the
contract was awarded to Contractor
Jack frost for the construction of the
new building and workmen commenced
at noon today on the excavation of the
basement.
The new Gary Casino will be story
and a half brick structure and will COW
er the same ground space as the build
ing destroyed by fire last Sunday
night, the dimentions being 60x125 feet.
1t is the intention of the owners to
state excavating the entire floor space
to depth of four feet. The basement
will be seven feet in height and will
be utilized as a bowling alley. The
owners have already purchased four
regulation Brunswick-Balke Colander
company alleys.
The first floor of the rink will re-
main unchanged with the exception
that it will be about eight feet higher
A gallery will be constructed around
the entire building. The lighting sys-
tenn of the building will also be raised
so the rink can be used for basket fall
indoor baseball and all kinds of indoor
sports.
The new casino will be heated by a
modern heating system which will be
installed in the basement, thus doing
away with stoves which necessarily
take up more floor space and are MOI
as safe as furnace.
| 1t is estimated that the new build.
| ing, when fully equipped, will cos
from $4,000 to $4,000. 1t will b,
owned and operated by owners of ths
old casino.
| The work on the new building will
be rushed as fast as the weather per
mits. AS soon as the basement is ex
cavated, the contractor thinks he cal
erect the building within sixty days.

are either In a terribly ''pickled'' con-
dition or else they hold the record for
whisky drinking Four foreigners. ac-
cording to the statements made to Chief
Higgings yesterday. stole almost fifty
gallons of good Kentucky whisky from
a Pennsylvania freight car near Buff
fngton early yesterday morning. The
car was opened by the breaking of the
seal, and the whisky poured from the
barrel into pals, one of which was car
ried by each man interested in the
theft. The police have a faint clew
which they are following, and expect
to adduce sufficient evidence to impli-
cate a number Of local foreigners.
The case was reported to officer Cor
man by a Pennsylvania company detec-
tive yesterday morning. A few mo-
ments later the policeman found a for
eigner in a badly intoxicated condition.
The fellow gave his name as Joseph
Waldar, and when sufficiently Sob
cred, told Chief Higgins that he had
been out with a crowd of friends the
night before. They had lot Of free
whisky" he explained, experimenting
his remarks with a Whit OF his breath
Chief Higgins was convinced that the
man had received some of the whisky
and decided to hold hi muntil the cal

BAzAAR'S FIRST DAY
INSURES SUCCESS

With gaily decorated booths and
many diners at the long white festive
board yesterday noon the first bazaar
of the Congregational church was
opened last night in the basement of
the Assembly hall.
The bazaar given by the Congrega-
tionalists is the most pretentious that
has ever been attempted by any of
the churches of the city and as far as
their success yesterday is concerned
the women of the church have reason
to feel proud Most of the day yes
terday was spent in fixing up the
booths so that the actual sale of the
merchandise on exhibition will not be-
gin on large scale until today.
At noon and in the evening the ia
bles were crowded with diners who
wished to try out the home-cooking,
and appease their appetite for food
that tasted like mother used to make.
There was even a large crowd which
ate here during the evening than there
was at noon.
The proceeds of the bazaar and din
ner will be turned over to the church
building fund. The women of the
church have been successful in rails
ing considerable money at these af-
fairs The recently gave a party at
the Gary Casino, at which a very large
crowd was present.

HARBOR TO GET A
NEW OFFICE BUILDING
Attorney Walter j. Riley
Will Build Block on
Guthrie Street.

Indiana Harbor, Ind. Dec. 1o.-Indi-
ana Harbor will shortly have another
splendid office building. located on
Guthrie street, near Michigan avenue.
less than half a block from the new
fire and police station. The proposed
edif1ce will be erected by Attorney Wal
ter j. Riley, and will be built adJoin-
ing the new Commercial club building,
the plans for which were accepted yes
terday morning. Mr.. Riley's building
will be almost a duplicate in outer ap-
pearance to the club building. and when
completed will give a splendid business
aspect to this portion of the city.
In an interview with a TIMES repre-
sentative yesterday, Mr.. Riley declared
that the building would cost him $4,000.
It will be built with white enamel
pressed brick front, trimmed in terra
Gotta. Forty feet in width and sixty
five feet in length, the lower floor will
be designed for store purposes. On the
second floor will be rooms for two pri :
vate offices, Joined by single recep-
ton room These will front on Guth-
RE street. In back OF the offices will
be designed modern four-roomed fat,
suitable for light housekeeping. Ev-
erything about this portion of the
building will be strictly modern, Mr..
Riley declaring that the fiat would be
a model one in every respect.
Plans for the building have already
been drawn by L. NJ. Mitchell, a Chi
cago architect, and Mr.. Riley will let
the contract for this building to the
successful bidder on the Commercial
club contract. 1t is his intention to
have both buildings completed and
ready for occupancy by March 1.
The advantages of Guthrie streets as
business location have never been
sufficiently demonstrated, until the pro-
! posal of the new Commercial club pro-
ject Seekers of suitable store sites are
now turning their eyes towards this
street, and a local real estate man yes
terday prophesied that within a yeal
business houses would be built on ev-
| cry available lot on Guthrie street
within a radius of two blocks of Mich.
