Indiana Harbor. Ind. Oct. 5.-Fired
with the achievements of DR.. Cook and
Captain Peary, Matt Sternberg deter
mined to take a little dash for himself
down the raging canal in gasoline
launch. accompanied by a party of In
diana Harbor school teachers.
This was on Saturday afternoon, and
say! the perils braved by the arctic ex-
plorers and the hardships endured by
them. were as nothing compared with
the rigors underwent by the gallant
Matt and his fair cargo on the first
expedition that ever sailed the blue wa
tiers of the canal
The giving out of the engine at
time when it was most needed, together
with being stranded high and dry upon
sand reef, necessitating the CONVEX
sion of Captain Sternberg into the mo-
tive power for the outfit, were only a
few of the incidents of this long and
perilous voyage.
The party, in addition to Captain
Sternberg, embraced the following
teachers: Misses Frances Goldman,
Myrtle Taylor Brouse and Rhetta Lynn.

Captain Sternberg, having removed the
canopy. so as not to discommode the
bascule bridges, the boat chugged it's
way down the canal as far as the Term
inal bridge. All went merrily thus far.
It was on the return trip that the ex-
petition met with a series of mishaps
which make the stout heart to quail
and the rosy cheek to blanche. Arrived
at a point just a short distance from
the Interstate steel mill, something
went wrong with the machinery, and
the craft drifted helplessly onto a sand
bar. Here the engine began to pump
sand.

captain. speaking through his trumpet

body for the first time since they
acquired their new honors.
The appointment of election inspec-
tors was the most interesting, if not
the most important, business that came
up. The advisability of bringing the
matter up last night was discussed
amongst the republican members be-
fore the meeting, and it was only de-
cided to bring it to a head when AL
derman Albert Lewis solemnly an
nounced to his brother republican mem
bers that Alderman Mack Vuksanovich
the newly appointed member from the
Fourth ward, had that very afternoon
given him his word of honor that he

But, alas, for credulity and alder
manic guilelessness and exc the new
alderman's guile, for, when the Fourth
warders name was called, his vote of
NO" was louder than any of the 9TH
ers. When Mr. Lewis first made the
announcement that yuksanovich would
vote for his list. he was given the
merry ha. ha, but he felt so sure of his
man that he even bet a dollar on the
proposition.
