Only one Sisters remains who has been
with the St Margarets hospital since
its foundation, this is Sister NJ MARCEL
ina. She has sacrificed her health in
the restoration Of that of patients. and
is not nearly the strong woman any
more that she was ten years ago. How
ever, all the sisters hope that she will
remain in Hammond instead of being
transferred to other stations
Sister Eusebia has been in charge
Of St Margarets hospital since Sept.
Il, 1907. 1t would, indeed be hard to
replace her because of her high execu-
tive ability, and during the last few
weeks that ability has been taxed to
the utmost She however, takes no
credit for herself, working merely
under those vows she took when she
entered the sisterhood.

e DOCTORS
Professional Men Are En-
thusiastic About the Prog
ress of st. Margaret's and
Will Attend Dedication
From All Parts of County.

Twenty doctors. including ply
sicians. surgeons and specialists, are
directly connected with St. Margaret's
hospital and look forward to the in
creased accommodation to treat their
patients in the new wing. When Broth
er Anselm of the St. Fransician order
of St Louis designed the hospital he
bore in mind the necessity of operat-
Ing room, laboratories. lavatories. and
sterilizing rooms, and the new wing Is
surely well equipped withthese neces-
saries rooms. There are other hospitals
that are larger, but 1t is safe to say
that none are better equipped for their
size.

Doctors Are Enthusiastic.

Some of the doctors have been con
nected with the institution ever since
its foundation, and their enthusiasm
for 1t grows as the institution grows.
They see the advantages to the patients
in treating them in a specially designed
place, not that the doctors did not
realize these advantages from the be-
ginning, but because they realize that
st. Margaret's hospital has the neces-
sary furnishing and equipments.
The professional men now connected
with the institution are as follows:
Dr. Robert Ansley, Indiana Harbor.
DR.. Geo. F. Bicknell, East Chicago.

Fire Marshal Purtell, alive to the trend
of present discussion, has issued his an
nual ''sane Fourth" warning.
with the approach Of the date on
which we celebrate our national indie
pendence, | deem it advisable to caution
the public in the use of explosives and
other reproducing Devices" says the
fire marshal, (which not only have re-
suited in larger property losses, but also
have caused the loss of many lives in the
past.
Last year was the first in which this
department made an effort to arouse
public sentiment to a realization OF the
dangers on that day and to the eXer-
else of caution which might result in a
saving. This was done by issuing bulle-
tins direct to the fire chiefs and other
city authorities and was very generally
supported throughout the state. The re
suits were most satisfactory, as the small
number of accidents, both to lives and
property throughout the state, as com
pared with previous years, was com
mented on generally. IN recent al
dress before the National Board of In
derwriters, the following statement was
made, referring to the United States
The large fire loss in this country as
compared with other countries is due 20
the difference in the idea OF thrift; II
the view Of responsibility of neIlghbors
and in the perception of the real mean
ing of fire loss or waste.
"This leads to the conclusion that not
only should the local officers exercise
vigilance in the enforcement of the state
law and local ordinances regulating. the
sale and handling of the ordinary joy
producers but also all careful citizens
should Join the vigilance committee. In
this way, by cleaning up alleys, rem0v-
ing rubbish prior to the Fourth and by
promptly reporting any violations OF the
still greater saving would result.
"The public should be made to realize
that they are responsible not only for
their own property, but for that of their
neighbors, and that they are not to be
allowed to celebrate to the extent Of
menacing surrounding property"

NOT JEFF DAVIS SON.

SHAWANO, Wis, June 22.-[Spe-
cial. For many years it has been quite
generally believed that Joe Davis, half
breed, who resides on the Menominee
Indian reservation a few miles from
Surfing, was the son of no less famous
a person than Jefferson Davis, presi-
dent of the southern Confederacy. What
lent added interest to the story is the
fact that Joe Davis served in a Wiscon-
sin regiment during the Civil war. 1t
is claimed that when a young lieuten-
ant in the regular army stationed at
Fort Howard in 1916 Jeff Davis had
been quite open in showing his admira-
ton for Joe Davis mother who was a
very good looking and attractive Indian
woman.
A short time ago Joe Davis in per-
sonal interview said MS own mother r
had told him that he was a son of jeff
Davis and also that his own age on en-
tering the army was 10. A veteran ten
years older than Joe Davis said that he
had heard when a boy Joe Davis moth
er tell his own mother that Davis (the
father of joel had asked her to go with
him when he left Fort Howard. Rela-
tives of Joe Davis declared the story to
be true and it was said that he resem-
bled Jefferson Davis so strongly that
credence was given to the story.
A comparison of Joe Davis picture
with that of his alleged father shows no
resemblance. The Encyclopedia of
American history states that Davis was
at Fort Howard in 1885 and left the
army a year or two later. With Joe
Davis enlistment in the army to prove
his age id 1864 the story is completely
shattered Joe Davis shows so little
trace of Indian blood that he would not
be suspected of being a Menominee. It
is more likely that his father was some
corporal or sergeant who served at
Fort Howard in 1915 and the story has
evoluted from that origin
