CLIFTON.

After more than a yess Of failing
health, and six weeks OF intense suffer
ing, Garrett w. Clifton, aged 50 years,
passed quietly to the great beyond. Mr..
Clifton was born near Staytonsvile,
and grew to manhood in that vicinity.
He received his education at the com
mon schools Of his vicinity and at a
select school in Dover. After leaving
school he became a surveyor, and was
employed on the first railroad built in
Delaware. Later he went to Kansas,
and for few years followed his profess
sion there. Returning to Delaware he
became a minister of the gospel and
gave every promise OF being more than
ordinarily successful Then in the
midst Of bis career an accident changed
the whole current Of his life, and to Ger
tain extent blighted it. While walking
a saw.mill he was caught in
the machinery and terribly injured; for
weeks his life was despared Of, but
owing TO a wonderfully strong cOnsti
tuition he recovered. He was never
able to enter the ministry again. This
seemed TO be the greatest CissappOint.

THE CITY
APPOINTS RAY
Judge McMahan Honors a
Gary Man.

w. P. Ray, who has been acting for
the past few months in the capacity
Of special truant officer for the Gary
board of education, has been appointed
by Judge McMahan of Crown Point to
the office of county probation officer
and will serve in this city alone.
The necessity for having an officer
in this city became so apparent to the
members of the school board that Mr..
Ray was appointed to assist them in
the work and to bring charges of tru-
ancy UP before the proper authorities
when they were brought to light. He,
however, had no authority to take
action until he received his appoint
ment from Judge McMahan. While
acting as probation officer Mr.. Ray
will continue his work for the Gary
school board. Mr.. Ray stated yester-
day that afhdavits against the parents
of two children would be filed within
the next few days if some disposition
is not made of the children who are
mot attending school. They have been
notified" said Mr.. Ray, land have TAX

PLANT At EIGHTEENTH
AND MADISON Street
Pure Milk Is Growing Necessity in
Gary-stock Sold Readily and
More of 1t Is Wanted-Concern
Will Have All It's Milk Inspected
and Guaranteed.

John f. Sears, town trustee of Gary,
is the promoter of a scheme of great
proportions for the salvation of ply
steal Gary and more especially for it's
youthful contingency. Namely, he pro-
poses to rescue the steel city with a
life line thrown out to the struggling
populace in the form of pure milk. For
this purpose a stock company has now
been organized and practically all of
the stock sold, and if there is no hitch
in the present plans they will be in the
field by the time the frogs begin to
MARBLE in the spring.
The new organization, which will en-
ter the field as soon as the stockhold-
ers can get together select a head for
the new industry and purchase their
stock and equipment. An elaborate
pasteurizing plant Will be installed,
probably at Eighteenth and Madison
streets, the site which is looked upon
most favorably at the present time,
beautiful sanitary wagons will be pur-
chased and best of all, the milk which
will be disposed of will be inspected
and guaranteed. 1t actually made one
/ feel dizzy yesterday TO see the amount
of cream Mr.. Sears said would be in
the top of the bottles. If the milk
wa sonly half as rich as Mr.. Sears said
it would be, he will be unable to take
care of the business for years to come.
Although the promoter has decided on
the percentage Of cream to be used. he
/ has not yet dcreed what the citizens
will be compelled to pay for 1t.
| 1t is estimated by Mr. Sears that it
/ will take $50. 600 dollars to erect a
1 plant, purchase the best of equipment
and establish themselves in business.
\ A great deal of this stock has already
been sold in Gary, some has been sold
in Hammond and many others are said
to be clamoring to get slice Of the
dividends of free pure milk, which is
an adequate compensation.

would like to see is all the smoke
stacks smoking up.
It would just be as well to pack
your portmanteau even If there is no
chance of your attending the inaugural
ceremonies.
The call for dwelling houses in Gary
IS not nearly so great as the call for
the money with which to rent them.
with what little interest the people
of Gary have left for the Indiana leg

GARY BRIEFS.

Chief Rimbach of the Hammond po-
lice force was in Gary yesterday Wis
iting with Chief Martin. Martin was
formerly a member of the Hammond
fore during Chief Rimbach's term and
the two chiefs are therefor very much
interested in each others work.
Samuel Vuckovich, who was arrested
by Chief Martin a few days ago on a
charge Of murder, was released by the
police after being held for a day. The
man had the same name that a Kan
sas City murderer had, worked in the
same place that he is alleged to have
worked, but did not answer the de-
scription sufficiently to warrant his
being held on the charge. Chief Mar
tin was positive for a brief period that
he held the man wanted for murder.
