JOKE ON CONDUCTOR
WALTER BIELEFELD
Just Married and Is Hauled
Through the Streets by
Fellow Employees.

Walter Bielefeld. one of the con-
ductors in the employ of the Ham
mond, Whiting & East Chicago Street
Railway company. was treated to an
experience by his brother conductors
that he Will not soon forget.
1t was all because Bielefeld had been
recently married. The boys say that he
refused to do the right thing on the oc-
casion, and, as the cigars We're not
forthcoming, they got their pleasure
out of taunting him.
Bielefeld was placed on a wagon, to
to which was hitched an old white
horse. The wagon was properly pla-
carded with signs, which indicated the
reasons for Bielefeld's being given a
ride in such an unceremonious manner
and the whole equipage preceded by
eighth or ten conductors. in uniform
marched down Holman street.
A man with a megaphone announced
that the victim of the joke was mar
ried and had not vet made the neces-
sary settlement with the fellows. The
cavalcade made a triumphant trip
through the city and was enthusiastic
ally greeted by the populace.

with a proposition to furnish the power
for pumping town water, which prac-
tically means the elimination of the
engineer at the water works station
and the necessity of further expense
for fuel. They made a rate of three
cents for every thousand gallons of wa
ter pumped, the town to install deep
we'll meters and keep certain parts of
the pumping station machinery in re-
pair. The Electric company also agreed
to furnishing piping, etc. to make con-
nection between the two plants and
furnish adequate fire protection twenty
four hours of the day. The board took
the matter under advisement and it is
probable a deal will be made at some
future date.

STRIKE ON JAIL JOB
At CROWN POINT
Controversy Between Lake
County and Chicago
Union Men.
Especial to THE T1MEs)

Crown Point. Ind. May 4-The
steamftters and plumbers working on
the county Jail job went on a strike
yesterday and up to this writing they
have not come to any terms of agree
ment or settlement In all probability
it will be long drawn out affair. as
both sides to the controversy seem to
be bent on carrying their point.
The bone of contention is being pick
ed between the members of the Lake
county unions and those holding Chi
cago or nonresident cards. the former
being unwilling to labor with the lat
ter, their being slight difference in
the wage scale. and the Lake county
men declare that the contract was let
solely as a Lake county job. where nc
one. If possible, but Lake county me-
chanics We're to be employed. The
walkout is tieing up the work on the
building and the controversy probably
will be long -winded, as it is between
the unions themselves.

At THE STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis Ind, May 4.-Harry
New of this city, formerly chairman of
the republican national committee, is
said to be a candidate for chairman of
the state committee. and there is
general opinion that he can have the
place if he wants it. He is not only
receptive candidate, but he is out for it,
according to the report, though he has
not made any definite announcement of
his aspirations.
New is one of the smoothest politi
clans In Indiana He knows all about
it and has been through the mill from
one end to the other. There was talk
some time ago of running him for may
or this fall, but New said nay. nay.
He said he would not be a candidate
for any office and that he would not
run If nominated. So his name was
wiped off the slate. But New loves a
scrap. He likes to be in the thick
est of it. He is a sportsman of the
first water. his favorite sport being
duck hunting This sporting blood has
! probably been the cause of his decision
10 get after the state Craftsmanship.

Fidelia Raises $4,000.

The Saengerbund- -Fidelia held a
meeting last evening for the purpose
Of transacting the usual routine Of
business The members were very
much gratified to learn that over 900
of the $50 shares have already been
sold to the members Of the organfza-
tion and there are several hundred yet
to be seen.
The sale OF 300 fifty dollar shares
means that $4,000 has been realized
from the sale Of shares and. as it was
only expected to raise $4,000, this
showing is a good one.
As soon as the rest Of the member
ship can be seen other shares will be
sold and it is hoped that the fun $780,
coo can be raised in the next few
weeks. This will provide for a build
ing that will be credit to the city.

WHY WAS BEER USED
INSTEAD OF WINE
Indianapolis News Suggests
Gary Paid Compliment
to Fleming.

The Indianapolis News Of May ,, has
the follows
While laying the corner stone of
the new city hall at Gary bottle Of
beer from the last saloon to close it's
doors in that city was placed among
the relics to be gazed upon by the
curious a half century or century
hence, when the need Of a newer and
more commodious structure becomes
imperative. The Fort Wayne News
complains because whisky or wine was
not substituted. as a half century or a
century hence the beer will be stale.
and those who sample the contents Of
the bottle will wonder as to the char
acter of beverages popular in the davs
of 1909 Fear is also expressed that
inasmuch as the output from State
Senator Flemings brewery controlled
the situation a Gary, the bottle prob
ably was selected from this eminent
statesman's best brew. and incidentally
it fears that the reputation of Mr.
Fleming will suffer if somebody takes
a long pull at the bottle of accumulated
sta1eness, and. in reprisal. a delegation
may go all the way to Fort Wayne to
desecrate Mr. Fleming's tomb What
ever may happen in the way of re-
prisal. it is safe prediction that the
contents of this particular bottle a
century hence will inspire the belief
that there were people of strange taste
in Gary in the pioneer days. and won
der may be expressed why cards anc
dice were not also added to the col
lection, the more fully to portray con-
ditions as they may have existed.

FOR YOUR HEALTH'S SAKE
GET YOUR OXYGEN.

1t is Of the utmost Importance
that human beings have an abun-
dance of oxygen at all times. This
means day and night, summer and
winter. 1t is scarcely necessary
to give this sort Of advice for
the summer season; but when
the weather gets cold many peo-
pie are afraid of cold air and 9TH
ers think it is waste of fuel to
heat fresh, cold air, so they keep
it out.
This is poor economy, to say
the least. In fact, It costs more,
as rule; that is, If you figure
your health and earning capacity
as having any monetary value.

NOT IN COMMERCIAL
FIELD TO COMPETE
Deal Which Is Consumated Today At
fects the Vermilion Coal Company
Controlling $50 Acres-C., I. &
S. Railroad VIII Get Bulk of Busi-
ness to Transport Fuel.

THE TIMES is able to make an authori-
tative announcement to the effect that
the United States Steel Corporation has
purchased the properties of the Little
Vermillion Coal company of Danville,
H. The significance of this an
nouncement lies in the fact that it is
but the beginning of the work of the
steel corporation in securing control of
valuable coal properties in southern
Indiana and Illinois, from which the
mills at Gary and South Chicago will
be supplied
This information was positively con-
firmed by General Manager w. A. Pat
terson at the offices of the Little Yer
million Coal company, in room 1875,
Old Colony building. Chicago. The deal
involves the purchase of $50 acres of
coal land, which have daily capacity
of 5000 tons and are now producing
2.1OO tons daily.
No Consideration Given.
While Mr.. Patterson admitted that
the deal had been -coasummated today,
he would not state what was the con-
sideration. When asked If he knew OF
any other operations of the steel trust
in the vicinity of Danville by which
they We're seeking TO secure control of
other mining properties, he stated that
they We're very busy securing options
on land and clearing the title to 9TH
er land upon which they had options.
When it is known that the United
States steel Corporation located its
plant at Gary with the knowledge that
it could secure coal in southern Indi-
ana and Illinois in large quantities
this initial purchase of coal properties
is very important.
1t is understood that the United
Steel Corporation will not attempt to
enter the coal mining field for CONNER
cial purposes, but merely to insure it
self a supply of coal for the future and
to prevent its being forced to pay high
prices to some Independent coalation OF
mine owners
Colonel L. T. Dickson, the president
of the Little Vermillion Coal company
was not in his office this morning. but
it is thought that the confirmation ot
the news by General Manager Patter-
son is sufficient.
Railroads Interested.
! The purchase of these coal mines by
/ the United States Steel Corporation an6
/ the prospect of other purchases being
made in the near future is a matter Of
great Importance to the railroads IL
this sction. which run in a northerl3
and a southerly direction.
As the Chicago. Indiana & Southerr
has a direct connection with Danville
it is expected that it will get the bull
/ Of the shipments. 1t is not expecte,
that the announcement will be mad,
in the Chicago papers until later.
