MAN WITH A
PISTOL NEAR TAFT
Story of Supposed Peril to
President.

New York, July Subjective Ser
geant James p. Ward of New Haven,
Conn, is authority for the statement
that a woman saw a man with a pis
toll under his coat near President Taft
while the executive was assisting the
town of Norwich to celebrate it's 250th
anniversary. Ward had been assigned
to assist the Norwich police and was
close to the president during the pa
rade. A woman in the crowd gave
shrek. he states, and when he reached
her side, she told him she had seen a
small man with a glistening revolve~
under his coat and that his man was
close TO the president
With Secret Service Operative Wheel
er and several of the Norwich police
men, Ward says he searched the crowd
for the armed man. but he had disap-
peared. According to Ward President
Taft was not in the leafs disturbed by
the incident.

SCARLET FEVER DUE
TO INFECTED MILK
Farmer With Sickness in
Family Persisted in Sup
plying Gary Dealer.
S PATIENTS QUARANTINED
Health Officials Learn That Sickness
Exists at Miller and McCool-
Forbid Shipment.
S PATIENTS Guaranteed

Several cases of scarlet fever have
been known to develop in Gary during
the past two weeks from infected milk.
shipped to the city from Miller Sta
ton.
Several local physicians have had
cases, which were brought to the no
tice of City Health. Officer Templin.
DR.. Templin began an investigation and
found that the persons who were in
fected were getting their milk sup
ply from dealer at Miller Station. He
continued the investigation and found
that the dealer had two children who
were suffering from the disease. The
family had been quar- antined and the
infected members were living in the
front part of the house, while the dairy
was located IN the rear.
1t also became known that a farmer
from which the dealer secured his milk
supply lived at McCool, he also having
two children sick with scarlet fever.
4 rigid quarantine was placed on the
families of the formers and dealer and
they were ordered to stop shipping
milk until permitted by the health of
ficer. There are at the present time a
half dozen cases of scarlet fever in
Gary and two cases are known to have
been caused by the infected milk.
There were also five cases at Miller
Station.

line or back to the Windy City, but the
most awful jolt the local police depart
ment has received is the news that
Michigan City crooks are being placed
on the South Shore line and shipped
directly 10 the steel City.
An item from a Michigan City paper.
which was brought to their attention,
reads as follows:
Tramp PeddIers Sent to Gary.
j. F. Daily and Mike shamming. a
couple of tramp shoe string peddlers
and ornamental glass blowers, were
picked up this afternoon by officer
Weaver. They had seen the bottom Of
too many whiskey glasses to be al
lowed to roam at large. This after
noon they were placed on board a
South Shore car and sent to Gary"
Finally Return to Michigan City.
To think that Michigan City would
go to the trouble of transporting her
undesirables to add to Gary's already
full quota of bad men is almost incom-
prehensible. Chicago has long been
able to do that satisfactorily by plac-
ing them on a street car with just
enough money to carry them over the
state line with a warning never to re-
turn again. 1heSe nave kept the locdA
police busy the jails filled. and the
added expense to the county has been
bourne without a murmer. The idea
of making the Steel City the stamping
ground for bad ones for northern In
diana and Illinois, however, places too
heavy a tax on the patient energy of
the local police force and the safety
of Gary's peaceful citizens
The local police believe if Michigan
CITY and other cities would stop send
ing these men to Gary, that Gary
would have far less men to send to
Michigan City to the penitentiary.
When Gary returns the undesireables
to Michigan City they are generally
handcuffed, attended by an officer, and
sentenced to a term in prison instead
of dumping them off at that place
where they roam at large in the city
and menace the safety of the COM
munity.

Rents IN
GARY DROP
20 PERCENT
A. Dearbyne of Lake County
Realty Company Forsees
Another Slump Of Fifteen
Per Cent for the Near
Future.

The rent of houses and flats in
Gary" said A. Dearbyne of the Lake
County Realty company yesterday, lis
now on an average of 20 per cent lower
than they were six months and a year
ago, and 1 believe that they will be
lowered at least Is per cent more be-
fore the prices are normal
This is the best thing that could
have happened in Gary, as the high
rents, high priced houses and flats
have driven a multitude of working
men out of the city to live in sur
rounding communities. I believe that
fully 1000 working men are living
outside the city limits of Gary at the
present time and that all of them
could be induced to Gary If the rents
were more reasonable.
The average rent of houses and flats
in the past ran from $50 to $40 per
month, but now this figure is being
reduced so that there are a large num-
Der of dwelling places to rent at 500.
1t means much to the merchant and
the real estate men to get the laborers
who are now living outside of the city,
to reside in Gary. This Will keep this
money in circulation In the Steel city
and will amount TO hundreds of dollars
a week.
Il think that every merchant in town
and every real estate dealer looks with
pleasure upon the construction of the
cheaper priced houses which is lower
ing the average rent of dwelling places
in this city Some of these have not
been built, others now being con-
structed and many more are contem-
plated"

SCHEDULE A SOCIAL
PROGRAM FOR SEASON
First semi-Monthly Dance VIII Be
Given at Assembly Hall Next Sat

Chicago Trip as One of the Events
-Disclaim fractional Interest.

A system of young mems democratic
clubs have been organized in Gary by
several of the politicians in prepara-
tion for the coming campaign this fall.
One club, which plans to establish
permanent quarters, has been organized
neach word, officers have been elect
ed and regular meetings will be held
from this time forward until after the
election
The organization of the democratic
clubs is, in reality. the first move in
the campaign. These organizations
propose to keep things interesting po-
litically until the end of the hot bat
tie in the fall. In the meantime dances
and other events of a social nature
have been provided by the First Ward
club, which is aimed to promote friend
ship and s0ciability among the mem
bers.
Several Events Scheduled.
The first dance viii be given Sat
urday night in the Assembly hall. This
dance is called the first semi-monthly
dance of the First Ward Democratic
club. Not only will these dances be
given every two weeks but other
events of a social nature are being
planned. A trip to Michigan City and
return. via boat to Chicago, is also
one of the events now being looked
forward to by President E W. Creebe.
the president of the organization.
1t is planned to secure special rates
to Michigan City on the interurban
line, spend part of the day in that
city at Washington park and then go
to Chicago by boat. The excursionists
will then return to Gary on the South
Shore line from Chicago,
So far the other clubs in the city
have not shown as much activity as
that in the first ward, but they have
perfected their organization to the ex-
tent of that in the first ward. In any
event, which either of the three clubs
are giving, the other democrats of the
| city are heartily invited to attend.
When asked whether the organiza-
tions were Crolius or Knots in senti-
ment, one of the promoters said they
| were simply democratic clubs and that
no pledges had been made. Those re-
sponsible for the organization, how
ever, are known to be Crolius men.
