something! And if that somebody or
something had appeared the woman's
eyes would not have failed her Across
the countenance Of the woman was an
expression. not so much of sorrow, as of
desperation. Her features were strained
to the breaking point.
That woman was Mrs. James Mihm
of Gary. And she was searching for
her husband who two weeks ago de-
serted her at Gary. Learning Thursday
that he had departed to Michigan City,
where he was laboring as a p1asterer,
Mrs. Mihm made a trip to the harbor

informed that her husband had applied
for position on the building Of the

Some time ago she went to Cedar
Lake and secured employment at Rus
sells saloon on the east side Of the
lake. She broke her glasses there and
as her eyes are IN very bad condition
she came to Hammond to have some
new ones made. There was some delay
In getting them and in the meantime
she lost her position.
She tried to secure a room in the
various Hammond hotels, but no one
would take her in. She was positively
alone and friendIess in the world. It
was then that she decided that death
alone would bring relief from her
mental and physical sufferings and
with nothing but the memory of her

her she said that she had not had a
drink since Easter and was not taking
morphine.
One time she called at my office

looked among my medicines for some
