PEGS BRICK
At HIS WIFE
YESTERDAY
Especial to The T1MEs.)


East Chicago. Aug. ia warrant
was issued yesterday before Judge Will
liam A Reiland for the arrest of Will
liam Lindert, who Is charged with hav-
ing thrown a brick through the front
window Of his former wife's dwelling
in Forsyth avenue.
This is not the first time Mr.. Lindert
has been in similar trouble. About
three months ago he appeared before
Judge Reiland because he was con-
stantly annoying Mrs. Augusta Lin
dert, who had secured divorce from
him some time previously. On this oc-
casion he was given a light fine by
the East Chicago magistrate, on the
promise that he would let Mrs. Lin
dert alone in the future.
But Mr.. Linert fails to see why Mrs.
Lindert, once his wife. is not always
his wife. He holds the decree she Sc
cured from him about a year ago as
not worth the paper it is written on.
She is still his wife, he maintains. and
if he wants to throw bricks through
her window, he has perfect husbandly
right to do so,
Mrs. Lindert is well connected in
Whiting, being a member of the old
and respected Harms family, who
were among the first settlers in the
Oil City.

AT STATE CAPITAL.

indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 1o.-The next
legislature will be asked by the anti
saloon league to pass a law which Will
prohibit the shipping into dry coun-
ties liquor from wet counties in the
state. And if the legislature next time
is anything like the last two have been
the anti-saloon league will get almost
anything It asks for.
The league has found great difficult
ty IN keeping dry territory dry because
individuals in dry counties can now
send into wet counties and have liq-
uor shipped in to them for their own
use. And it is safe to say that in ev-
cry county in the state that has voted
itself dry by remonstrance there are
people who are constantly receiving
booze" from the outside.
Do a Mail Order business.
Breweries have flooded the dry coun-
ties with letters Offering to ship beer
in. The plan is for the purchaser to
send his order by mail for the beer and
to send along with the order the mon
ey to pay for it. Then the brewery
ships in the beer and a drayman hired
by the purchaser gets it at the freight
depot and takes it to the place desig-
mated by the owner Generally the de-
livery is made at the home of the pur-
chaser. So the man can have his beer,
Law Does Not Touch Clubs.
This trouble has extended even so
far as to the many social clubs that
have been and are being organized in
the various dry counties. The club
buys the booze in the same manner as
the private individual buys It and 1t
IS drunk by the members OF the club.
There is no law on the books now
that will prevent this kind Of business s.
The league officers and attorneys have
sought in vain for some way to over
come the business, but they have fail
ed Now, they propose to go before
the legislature and ask that the local
option law be amended so as to put a
stop to the shipping in Of liquor.
| OF course. the Indiana Legislature
cannot pass any law that will stop the
shipping in of liquor from other states
but it IS said that the anti-saloor
league and the other temperance forces
in the country will go after congress-
at the next session and try to have g
federal law passed that will put a stoI
