I YEAR OLD
IS BITTEN
BY DOG
Mother of Three Puppies,
Believing Herself Abused
by Child, Sinks Teeth in
Calf of Leg of Erwin
Lewis.

East Chicago. Ind. April 22.-Anoth-
er of Harry Gaugh's dogs has been
guilty Of biting a child, this time the
seven -year-old son Of Alderman and
Mrs. Albert Lewis being the victim.
A few days ago Mr. Gaugh had one
of his valuable pointers. Bob. shot aft
er the animal had bitten his two and
a year-old son. in the cheek. The
dog that bit the little Lewis boy, was
also a pointer. the mate of Bob. and
had never been known to be treach-
erous. There seems some doubt as to
whether the dog was to blame in the
present case, as Erwin admitted to his
father that he had been throwing
stones in the direction of the dog. but
with the intention of hitting bottle
near by Mr.. Lewis. having been a
boy once himself, is inclined to think
that the dog may have been the target
of a few of the stones. and is not plac-
ing all of the blame on the animal
At any rate the latter evidently be-
leved the missiles were meant for her
and being the mother of three young
puppies. her temper may been been a
little more irascible than usual The
upshot of the affair was that Erwin
was bitten in the salf of the leg. DR.
Rolla Hale cauterized the wound and
declared 1t as his belief that there was
nothing to worry about Mr.. Lewis
has not demanded the life Of the dog
as a penalty for its attack upon his
child, preferriug to keep the animal
under surveillance for a time with a
view of ascertaining whether it is in
a healthy condition

. eNNNNNNNNNNANNAA

Over 200 teamsters. belonging to the
Gary local union. went out on strike
this morning after their demands for
a raise in the scale had been re-
fused by the Team Owners associa-
tion. The report last night, stating
that compromise had been affected
between the owners and the drivers, did
not materialize. The information was
secured through a local teamster, who
said that the men were all at work
and that the owners had acceded to
their demands
A conference was held last evening
among the members of the Teamsters'
union and they decided to go out this
morning. There is now threatened "a
tie-up in building operations. and one
that promises to be bitterly fought on
both sides. The contention of the own
ers is that they are unable to pay
their drivers any more than $225 per
day, owing to the high price of feed,
etc, in Gary An offer of $235 per
day was made to the drivers a few days
ago. but this was fatty refused. they
demanding $3.50 Since that time the
offer has been withdrawn by the own
ers
Agreement Expired Last Week.
1t is said this morning that a mum
Der of the drivers refused to go out
with the rest of strikers. but were
compelled TO do so by the owners The
agreement between the Team Owners
association and the drivers expired last
Friday The latter claim that when
the agreement was made a year ago
the owners promised to raise the scale
at the end of that time
Thomas J. Gormerly, probably one
of the biggest team owners in Gary
was interviewed by a TINES reporter
this morning
We are done" said Mr.. Gormerly
I'VE made the drivers an offer las
week of s2.35 per day but this was
refused. We cannot afford to pay the
drivers any more under the present
conditions There is very little in il
for the owners, as it is, and if we were
to accede to their demands We NIGH
as we'll go out of business. If the driv.
ers want to come back to work the,
must now come to US. and at the OLE
scale If they do not come back. an(
that soRn. we can get plenty of men t.
fill their places"
Sympathetic Strike Not Imminent.
Just how serious a nature the strik,
win terminate cannot be determined a
the present time. It is not though
that other unions in Gary will go il

Wants Prohibition.

Anderson, Nov. 2.-Believing that
prohibition in the South, wherever it
has been tried, has been beneficial to
the people, Congressman Wyatt Ak
en- of the third district of South Caro-
lima to-day declared he would intro
duce bill for prohibition in the Dis
trict of Columbia at the next session
of congress. Mr.. Aiken is member
of the house committee on the Dis
trict of Columbia.
perhaps prohibition in every case
has not entirely prevented the sale
and use of intoxicants," said Mr..
Aiken, "but it has in all cases been a
great deterrent and I believe if pro-
hibition is good for certain sections
of the country it should be good for
Washington. If prohibition can be
enforced anywhere it should be sue
cessfully enforced at the seat of the
greatest government on EARTH"

Chicago Glee Cluh.

The second number of the Char
lesion lyceum was greeted by an en-
thusiastic audience at the Academy of
Music last night. From the first
number to the last everything was en-
cored, and the Chicago Glee Club
must have felt flattered by the
warmth of the reception given it.
The evening opened with an ex-
cellent rendition Of Dudley Buck S
"On the Sea-" AS an encore to Water
Lilies, which quite won the audience,
peter Piper" was given. This was
excructiatingly funny. The trombone
quartette was very good as was also
the Pilgrims Chorus" from Tam
hauser." Mr.. Dixon made a hit with
his character sketch, ''The Hoosier.' u
His makeup was good and he was
able to work in some of Riley's
poems with delightful effect.
Those who were not at the Acade-
my of Music last night missed a treat.

The Circus.

Howes great London shows gave
two performances in Bamberg Tues
day of this week, and there must
have been something like six thous-
and people in town. Old residents
say it was the biggest crowd they
had ever seen in Bamberg. The
crowd was a quiet one, and there was
no drunkenness. The d;spensary was
closed for the day. Our merchants
did a fine business, as everybody
seemed to have plenty of money.
The show was very good one, and
it was absolutely clean in every par
ticular. There were no gambling
games of any kind connected with
the show, and all the employees were
as courteous as could be. In fact, it
was the cleanest crowd of circus
people we have ever seen, and the
representatives with whom we came
in contact were thorough gentlemen.
In our newspaper experience we
have had business dealings with
many circus men, and the gentlemen
of the Howe show were the incest
with whom We have ever done busi-
ness. The circus went from here to
Aiken.

Negro CAPTURED Eagle.

Rock Hill, Nov. IA negro living
on the farm of Mr.. ]. E. Bass, of
Ebenezer, two miles north Of this
city, shot an eagle Friday and broke
it's wing, so that he was able to
catch it. 1t measured six and a half
feet from tip to tip of it's wings.
Numbers of people from this place
drove out and saw the eagle. Satur-
day strange negro, who it is sup
posed thought that he might get
hold Of the eagle and show it for a
price, went to the one who shot 1t
and told him that the eagle belonged
to man in Charleston, that it had
gotten away and that he had been
sent after it, so the man who shot it
just handed it over to the strange
negro and it is not known what be-
came of either afterwards. The eagle
was not hurt except that it could not

Daniel and the Lions.

An old negro preacher in Ken.
lucky was dilating upon events in
the Bible which had a geological
trend. He described the deluge, and
how all the animals, two by two
went into the ark and were saved
Then he discussed the incident OF
Jonah and the whale, Balaam's ass
and finally the exploit of Daniel, who
entered the den of raving lions
and emerged unharmed. His audi
tors had listened with interest, and
some of them seemed to have their
doubts as to the authenticity of the
tales.
Finally, one of the younger ne
groes rose up and inquired: "Say,
pahson, wuz dem lions just like de
kind we has now?"
"Cose not, cose not" retorted the
preacher, irritated at having his dis
course interrupted. "Dey was B. c.,
befo' circuses."
The explanation was sufficient and
satisfactory. Commercial
