Especial to TIE TIMEs }

Hobart Ind. Aug. 19.-Russel Fisher.
the 6-year-oId son of William Fisher,
of near Ainsworth, was badly injured
and Mrs. William Fisher was slightly
injured at Hobart last evening when
automobile, belonging to William
Upright. Of Crown Point, and contain
ing Benton Lane. also of the county
seat. crashed into the buggy contain
ing Mrs. Fisher and her little boy.
The accident happened when Mrs.
Fisher was taking her little boy to
the doctor in Hobart to have a serious
cut in his foot dressed. The accident
to the automobile was therefore the
second one that happened to the little
boy in a very brief period of time.
Russell Fisher is said to be badly
cut about the face and body and while
he is not fatally injured, he is in seri-
Gus condition. The buggy was badly
wrecked and the automobile lost a
front wheel and was injured so badly
as a result of the crash that 1t was i'm
possible to take it back to Crown
Point.
Were They Intoxicated.
in the automobile would have been
arrested had it not been known that
they lived in Crown Point and are re-
sponsible business men. 1t is expected
that they will make a satisfactory set
tlement with Mr.. Fisher or there will
likely be prosecutions.
1t is currently reported in Hobart
that both of the men were under the in
fuence of intoxicants at the time the
accident happened and that this was
the cause of the accident.
DR.. Buhland was called and dresse ed
the wounds of the young man. The
people of Hobart are again aroused
over the reckless driving of some OF
the automobilists and it is likely that
stringent regulations will be adopted
governing the speed of automobiles
through that town.

STRIP BRINGS
NEAT sum
To OWNER

There is a great deal Of interest in
the little strip of Sibley street prop
erty between Holman street and the
Monon railroad tracks since a. II. Tap
per has begun the construction of his
new building, and the Gary & Inter-
urban line is expected to be built
through to this point in the next six
months.
The announcement has been made of
the purchase by Kaufman Wolf of "a
feet of frontage on Sibley street be-
tween Holman street and the Monon
tracks. from J. +. Roper for consid-
Grafton of $4,000.
This purchase is considered a snap,
as $4,000 is a very low figure for this
property. Mr.. Roper retains the house
and is now moving 1t to a new loca :
ton.
This is but one of the several real
estate purchases that have been made
recently by Kaufman & Wolf They
announce that they will begin the erec-
tion of a business block on the prop
erty in the spring.

ployes were fined 81 and costs amount
ing to total of $150. in Judge w. w.
McMahon's city court this morning on
the charge of obstructing a highway in
Munster.
The city court in Hammond was
crowded this morning with the dusky
sons of sunny Italy. who We're the de-
PENDANTS in the case. Judge y. o. Ross
of Logansport, together with J. G.
Ibach of Hammond, appeared for the
defendants and LeGrand T. Meyer Of
Hammond APPEARED for the town of
Munster.
The trouble arose when the town of
Munster attempted to open up Fisher
street through to the Indiana Illinois
state line The railroad company be-
came aware Of the fact that the road
was being opened and sent a gang of
twenty-nine foreigners to fence in its
right of way.
There was conflict with the town
authorities at once and later James
frost, bafliff of the Hammond city
court appeared with bunch of John
Doe warrants and arrested the whole
bunch.

EVIDENCE

SCHUMACHER

Opponent Shown to Be
Desperate Man, Who
First Assailed Former.

superintendent Henry Shoemaker
was thoroughly vindicated for stabbing
Henry Ruper in the arm in Judge f..
Green's court this morning, when the
case against him was dismissed, and
Ruper was placed under peace bonds
to prevent his making another attack
upon Shoemaker.
All of the evidence at the trial tend
ed to show that Schomaker was in the
right in taking the means he did of
preventing a dangerous assault upon
his person by Ruper. who was armed
with a blackjack and evidently meant
business.
The merits Of the quarrel over wages
had little to do with the case. 1t was
shown that Shoemaker was going along
on a bicycle when he was knocked off
the wheel by Ruper and attacked
AS Mt Shoemaker is a diminutive
person and Ruper is a strapping big
fellow, there could have been only one
outcome of a fair hand-to- hand fight.
In addition Ruper had the blackjack
in his hands and for time things look
ed serious for Superintendent Schomak-

them only to find that they were the
children Of fairly respectable people
and they were released for the sake of
their families.
There is many a mother who does not
have any idea that her daughter is
spending hours of her time in the Sc
clusion Of some dark nook in the park
and that she is actually in danger un-
less She is forbidden to enter the park
at night
To Make an Example.
eHretofore the police have been very
lenient toward the young couples whom
they have found in the park, but it is
altogether possible that one of these
fine nights a big policeman will lead
a shame-faced couple to the police sta
ton and Will book them on charge
that will disgrace them forever
The Lake Front park is another place
which is frequented by couples with
flexible ideas of propriety. 1t is al
most impossible for the police to cope
with the situation here for the young
people do not stay in the park, but
wander down the beach, where they
escape the watchful eye of the police
officers
II the young people who visit these
places in the evening We're accom-
panied by a chaperon or went in fours
or skies there could be no criticism OF
/ their conduct. but to be found alone in
the company Of a young woman in any
of the Hammond parks after o'clock
under present conditions, is to he sub
iected to the suspicious and criticisms
of everybody.

the best he knows how. and. if possible
restore them to the whole people

Must Get Out of Town.

The fact that he was armed with a
knife was all that saved him. for. by
making a couple of lunges at Ruper,
he was able to inhict serious enough
wound to make the big brute cease
his attack.
Judge Green said this morning that
there was but one thing that he could
do under the circumstances. He re-
leased Superintendent H. Schomaker
and placed Ruper under peace bonds.
This is taken as complete vindica-
ton of Mr.. Schomaker's action. and to-
day he is receiving the congratulations
Of his friends for his determined ac-
tion in repulsing the attacks Of Ruper.
1t is not believed that Ruper viii
be able to furnish a bond. and Judge
Green told him that the only alterna-
tive would be 10 get out of town at
once.
AS Ruper is said to be a desperate
character, it is not believed that the
Hammond police viii permit him to
hang around Hammond. Especially in
view of the fact that he has threatened
to kill Mr.. Sehomaker on sight

IN HARRISON PARK AFTER THIS

No more spooning in Harrison park
in the future.
Chief of Police Peter Austgen has de-
clared war against aDn Cupid, and his
heartless blue coats, most whom are
married, will drive the little cherub
out of the park every time they get
sight of him.
Conditions in the park have become
intolerable," said the chief. ON nu-
merous occasions the officers on this
beat have found amorous young couples
sitting in dark and secluded places and
have been compelled, for the sake of
decency. to make them leave the park
Harrison park should be reserved for
all of the people" said the chief. but
things have come to such a pass that
1t is repulsive for respectable people to
walk through the park in the evening
because of the numerous spooning cou-
pies who monopolize it."
Shocking Sights Seen.
A person does not know what mo-

WASTE PAPER ECONOMICS.


Hearing of processes for the recla-
nation of waste timber brings to mind
the tremendous quantity of paper daily
thrown aside as useless. An office OF
$ordinarylasi7a produces at least Il ton OF
waste paper in month. which is dis
posed of at price ranging from SIS
to $40 The purchasers of this office
by-product feed it, TO machines that
bundle the paper By sort OF hay
press process, and the magic of ma
chinery returns the soiled scraps in
pristine Wilderness. Waste paper has
become SO much a matter of course
that new Offices are built with a paper
shed, a. contrivance for caring directly
for this waste. In some businesses this
product amounts to hundreds of tons
in a year, and where the amount is
large. as ina city printing office, it is
gathered every day. 555
In addition to the paper of CONNER
cial and manufacturing concerns, there
Is the constant waste going on in every
home, which would aggregate thou
sands of dollars every year If ac-
counted for in the economies of the
country. Possibly when the conserpa-
ton commission has disposed OF its

VICTIM OF GUN ACCIDENT.
Little frankie Gotbers Loses an Es'
At Brothers Hand.

4, The little daughter Of Anton Gotberg
Of the Salt Lake Tailoring company,
whose home is at 141 east Seventh
South. was the victim of a gun accident
Wednesday morning by which she lost
an eye. It happened almost as soon as
she arose and before she had dressed
She went to one of the drawers IN the
bureau and on opening 1t was attracted
Z by a new 20 revolver which her brother
had bought. She took it down stairs
and her 12-year-old brother took It
from her and, not knowing 1T was
loaded, pointed 1t at her. TO his in
tense horror 1t went off and the ball
severed the nerve of the eye, and lodged
behind the eyeball. She was hurried off
to the Holy Cross hospital, where 1t was
found that the sight was entirely gone;
and the only thing that prevented the
ball from entering the brain was the
fact that 1t glanced against the bone.
The little girl Is reported to be resting
easy today, and It is expected that she
will soon recover, minus the sight of an
eye.
