ROMANCE
IS REVEALED TO-DAY

Indiana Harbor. June 29.-Friends or
Miss Elsie Long and Mr.. Dave Keppel'
the former a teacher in the Lincoln
school and the latter a roller in the
Inland mill, are wondering how to get
even with them. Everybody who knew
these young people at all well, were
aware that they were engaged There
had been showers given in their honor,
and 10 attempt had ben made at keep
ing the betrOthal secret. But nobody,
not even their dearest friends, even
suspected that they had up and gone
and done tin other words got mar
ried. even before the last of the show
ers was pulled off. to put it vulgarly
Such however. is the truth, and now
he friends of the culprits are racking
their fnnermost brain cells, to try anc
think up something sufficiently original
and terrible in its nature, to visit upon
the mean things" just to let then
know they they. the friends. cannot be
imposed upon with impunity
To make the matter worse, Mr.. and
Mrs. Keppel have been ensconced il
their ow nhome in Fir street. near On
hundred and Thirty-ffth street. 70
about a month. 1t is said right unde
the observation of the aggrieve'
friends. and no one ever caught then
at it.
A secret marriage and the temporar
separation that usually follows thes
events. until such time as the deceiver

their dupIicity, would be bad enough
but going quietly to Chicago and get
ting the knot tied and then slippin
into a fiat of their own is trifie to

TWIN CITY TIRE ladies
CALLED OUT TO FIGHT BLAZE

last night. was more prolifce of re
suits The call came from the home
of George Wolg. 4S17 Wegg avenue.
The fire was in the roof of the one
story cottage and apparently had start
ed from a defective hue i nthe chin
ney. 1t is not known positively how
the fire, which did about $500 damage,
started. The house was insured for
$500. the furniture, $500 and clothes
for 800. The boys had just returned
from a practice run and had barely
gotten into the station and turned
around when the larm was sounded
and away they went again The run
to the Wolf house was made in splendid
time as was also the case in the Har-
Dor larm Both departments yesterday
gave ample proof that they are on to
their jobs.

POSTAL AUTHORITIES
WORKING ON CASE
Nature and Appearance Of Missives
Lead to Belief That They Were
Sent By One Person-offcer Was
Given Alternative to Leave Town
or Die.

The special to THE TIMES from Mil
waukee yesterday. in which OFFICER
Gus Newman of Gary is said to have
told OF receiving black hand letters to
the police Of that city, was verified
Yesterday in Gary The life of officer
Newman was threatened in three dis
tinct letters received by him, in which
he was given Admitted number Of days
in which to live. This time expired
lastfSunday.
The letters received by the Gary po-
lice officer have been turned over 10
the postal authorities, who are now
working on the case in conjunction
with Chief Martin All of the letters
were written by a foreigner, in the
same hand and making the same
threats of death Their purpose was
evidently to make him leave the city.
The matter has been kept so quiet
that none outside of the highest au-
thorities of the city have been inform
ed of the receiving of the letters 1t
was thought that absolute secrecy IN
the matter would aid in the detection
of the black handlers, and for that rea-
son but few people were informed or
the occurrence. Even the officers on
the force were not aware otrthe send
ing of the letters.
The matter first leaked out when
Newman went to Milwaukee for the
purpose of reading the warrant to the
man arrested for the. murder Of Vasille
Grfstu. Here he told the officers Of the
black hand letters. and they insturn in
formed a TINES correspondent in that
city
Newman returned from Milwaukee
Saturday night, but Sunday, the time
set for him to leave the city or suffer
f-,e penalty of death, there was not
~cn the slightest indication that any
-a. intended to harm him. The Of
r. howevr, is not taking any chances
keeps his eyes open at all4times Of
day and night. lest the threat b.
ma into execution.
The authorities working on, the case
nave hoped that another letter would
be received, in a short time whichscoulC
be traced to the sender All of thu
three letters received so far have beer
written by the same party and contain
the same threats. framed in afsimila
manner. Tbs leads hea police to believ
that an individual rather than BAN
is responsible for the letters.
