J. A. Woodruff. the tenth man examin-
ed. was selected as juror No 10.
Woodruff was not examined by the
defense. He testified on questions by

about the case and merely knew Car

DEPUTY SHERIFF
PUNCHES" GAMBLERS
Especial to THE TINES.

Crown Point. Ind, Aug. 6.-Many
moons have rose and set over the lakes
Of the red cedars since the last arrest
for gambling was made. The fact is,
the time is beyond the ken of the
younger generation, but yesterday like
a bolt from a blue sky came the an
nouncement that two arrests had been
made by a deputy sheriff, who had
caught red handed two Chicago citi-
zens engaged in wearing the spots off
two little ivory cubes in a game known
in gambling parlance as craps"
Not that the sporty ltttle pastime has
not been engaged ~ before, at that
resort, for the echoes of a Jack john
son shuttle" in which the roof was
the limit, has not died away, but since
that time there have been vice-crusad-
ers, lid-lifting, ultimatums, governors
orders, sheriff's orders, IL o'clock at
night closing, Sunday closing, licens es
refused. and sundry other efforts to
make a perfectly good little lake out
Of Lake county's beauty spot That
the habitues of the place have hardly
dared to call their husbands (?) Jack"
for fear Of being implicated in charge
of card playing. In other words it is
only Sheriff Tommy Grant making
good" and having his orders obeyed by
his deputies, as was the case in yester-
days arrests.
Deputy Sheriff Eugene e. Duckworth.
in charge of that section of the county,
was making his rounds near the Mo
non park when he came across Louis
Haverman and George Bishop. both Of
Chicago. engaged in a sociabIe little
game of craps" 1t was hands up
and no flight" and in less than half
an hour the doughty deputy had his
men arraigned before Judge Nicholson S
court here, where they pleaded guilty
and were fined with costs, amounting
to twenty dollars apiece. This to a
man without money or hope is the
same as that many days at Grants ho-
tel. Bishop had the money, or pro-
cured it last night and was released
Haverman at this writing is living in
hopes that he will get some and be able
to follow his pal to Chicago and forget
that Cedar Lake has a lid that is as
tight as a farmers hogwire fence, or {

HAVE FINE
BANQUET

The Lake County Liverymen's asso-
citation held their regular bi-monthly
meeting last night the occasion af-
fording them an opportunity for a
splendid banquet at Hammond's newest
and most up-to-date eating place, the
Prima cafe. They sat down at 9 o'clock
and spent a joyful two hours. There
was no special business transacted as
far as the public is interested. at any
rate, there was no boost in the rates.
As a result. however, every one of the
score of liverymen. who were at the
banquet, is a walking advertisement
for the Prima cafe. The menu for the
evening was as follows:

Filet of Mackinac Trout Hollandaise

CARR GETS BUSY
WITH HIS HAMMER
Futile Effort of Gary Trib
une to Stir Up Resent
ment Against Times.

In a covert attempt to beliUle THE
TIMES crusade against the notorious
vice conditions existing in Gary, HON.
er J. Carr, editor of the Gary Tribune
last evening printed an article sug-
costing that q mass meeting be called
in Gary to denounce the newspaper
notoriety and damage which he claims
the town has received on account of
the crusade.
Whether one of Cars motives is to
disinfect and whitewash the Knots
administration, is matter of con
lecture with some people But one
fact remains The Tribune inspired
with motives jealousy has repeated
" endeavored to deny that conditions
are and were as they really existed.
Fearing loss of popularity and dread
ing to be called weak" he has taken
upon himself to say that Gary has
been libeled. As matter Of fact, the
vice conditions that existed in Gary
were even worse than the TIMES said
they were.
Last evening the Tribune appeared
with an article containing the follow
ing head lines: General Move Against
Fakes-Business. Men, Preachers and
Citizens DepIore False News Stories
Printed About Gary-Want to Take
Some Acknowledging May Be Called
Soon To Take Some Action-Ministers
Sent out Appeal to Chicago Papers
Now an investigation showed that
the Tribune and the business men
(proprietors of the former dives and
brothels) and the citizens" composed
of gamblers, thugs, idle blacks and
scarlet women) really deplore the sit
uation. And so does Tom Knots But
THE TIMES worries not about this class
of worthless OF the ministers referred
nearly every one commends this paper
in its stand and the Tribune takes
great pains to msrepresent them.
The Tribune heads its article with
the following paragraph:
The resentment among the people
of Gary over the fake stories about
riots in the town. the state militia
being ordered here and all the other
rot sent out by Gary correspondence
to the Chicago papers and sent BY
them broadcast throughout the coun.
try. is growing rather than subsid
ing"
AS matter of fact Carr means tn,
TIMES did not say that the militia wa!
coming here but that Gov Marshal
would dispatch the troops should tn,
law still remain a dead letter. In con
nection with the sending out of stories
1t may interest Gary people to know
that George r. Scott of the Gary Tri
bune is correspondent for the Asso
cfated Press at Gary.
Rev George Deuel. pastor of tn,
Gary NJ E. Church said The cru
SADIE which THE TIMES has conducte,
against the evils in Gary has met witt
my approval right along. THE TINE
is to be commended for the stauncl
stand 1t has taken against Gary's grea
shame"
Rev Father Jansen pastor of Hol
Angeles Catholic church, has but on
attitude toward the vice question. H
has shown 1t by the able sermon
which he has preached from the pulpi
every Sunday condemning in tn
strongest terms the fragrant violation
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1909-08-06

1t is on that account that it is here
suggested that the pastors of the FIVE
churches call the meeting, for they.
certainly, can not be accused of hav-
ing any political axes to grind. No
doubt the other pastors of Gary
churches will cheerfully join in the
movement for the general good of
Gary
of course if any one attacked the
conditions in the patch and the Knots
government and defended THE TIMES,
the meeting as Carr states it should
be so handled that any suspicious of
political motives Will not be aroused"
This shows that Carr's idea of the
gathering should be "knockfest" with
THE TIMES as the victim. The public
would be indebted for more of these
brilliant editorials showing just how
the editor of the Tribune would have
the meeting handled"
It is hardly probable either that the
ministers will fall into the Tribune
snare and be induced to attack THE
TINES for Cars benefit, and the result
ant disinfecting of the Knots admin
istration and the chain of dives it per-
mitted to run.

Busch Brewing company owes the fact
that one of their teams is alive today,
to the good sense and humanity of
Police officer Leo Mccormick and Con-
stable James B. Lowden. The team
had come over from Grand Crossing and
was standing at the corner of Forsyth
and Chicago avenues, while their driv-
er went inside to attend to an order
While he was inside the practiced eve
of Constable Lowden, who was former
ly a veterinary surgeon, fell upon the
team He noticed that both the horses
Were all in, and that one of them in
particular looked as though it was
about to drop in it's tracks. Policeman
Mccormick also noticed the condition of
the horses, and when the driver re-
turned both men ordered him to take
his team to a livery barn.
The animals had been driven hard.
and the long drive together with the in
tense heat of the day had combined to
PROSTATE them A number of persons
who gathered about the animals
thought all they needed was water. and
suggested that drink at the fountain
would bring them around all right. but
Constable Lowden declared that If they
were not taken at once to a barn the
driver would have a dead team on his
hands. His advice was acted upon and
the horses were driven into Lewis &.
Smiths livery stable. one of them
was on the point of falling as it was
entertaing the barn and required the
support Of two men to steady it.
While the team had recovered suffcf-
emily after resting up and cooling off
and after the perspiration had been
started, 1t is declared. that they will
never amount to much again.

Becker being out Of town, the board
took no decisive action. especially since

that the American Surety company
would sign the Traction company's
bond.
City Fathers Have Change of Heart.
At the session last Tuesday evening
the council was inclined to be lenient
with the company and allow extension.
but feeling has sprung up in admins
trative circles that ". J. Riley isn't
doing the right thing. Some say that
it is to delay the South Shore line in
building its branch line directly from
Tolleston to Hammond. This feeling is
growing in such proportions that even
if Mr.. Riley does file a sufficient bond
it is doubtful whether it Will be ac-
cepted. On the face OF the franchise
it is null and void because the fran
chise provides for its forfeiture The
only other reason that could be given
for the delay is the probability that
the company wants to put off begin
ming construction as long as possible.
In the meantime word comes from
Gary that work on the South Shore line
over its private right of way between
Hammond and Tolleston.
