well worth attending as this glee club
is n of the finest in the west 1t has
been in existence for IA years and has
gained recognition all over the country.
Its members are singers and instrument
talists of high ability and the training

citizens and an opportunity of helping
along q worthy cause.

the busiest individual in Lake county
for some eight or ten hours.
Yesterday was spent by members of
the Tuesday Reading club in string
ing the tags that are to be used to
distinguish the chaff from the whaet
Two thousand of these were ordered
in the first place. but as enthusiasm
grew. 1t was decided that two thousand
would be twice too few SO a couple
Of thousand extras were ordered from
the printers and as these are to be sent
out tomorrow. It will require some tall
hustling on the part of the club mem
bers to get them strung" and tied in
time. However 1t is expected that
before night the last string will be
insered and every tag in complete read

The Tuesday Reading club will hold
meeting this afternoon. to which the
public has been invited to make final
arrangements for the great day. Mrs.
Ottenheimer wifi be on hand to tell
just what has been accomplished and
whit is yet to be done. Yesterday was
spent by Mrs. Ottenheimer at the phone
and circulating among her friends. in
an effort to round up everybody into

Mrs. william Meade the newly elect

with expected aid from the Terminal

company asking for a donation and
superintendent Fogg has volunteered
to personally present the letter to the

extended a cordial invitations to the
women of Hammond to come and parti-
cipate in the fun OF tag day.

Splendid talent has been secured for

gion Is well established, assisted by
outside talent of exceptional merit.
The entertainment will be given I'M

yer and other democrats present.
After the motion was voted upon, w.
A. Cain, the backbone of the democrat
10 party in Gary. moved that the min
utes of the meeting be printed in THE
TIMES Everybody" he added don't
read the Tribune; I don't" The motion
was seconded and carried unanimously.
The motion was then spread upon the
minutes of the meeting.
Purpose Of Meeting.
The purpose of the mass meeting last
night was to take steps to perfect a
democratic organization for the coming
municipal campaign. The committee of
nine appointed will take steps in their
respective wards to select suitable
place and time for the ward mass meet
ings, at which the regular ward COM
mitteeman will be selected.
If the antagonistic spirit against Mr..
Knots as shown last night continues.
the regular organization will have slip
ped from the grasp Of the present town
president. There is no question. how
ever, but what he has strong person
al following and the fight at the ward
mass meetings in the next two weeks
will be thing beautiful to see. Much
depends here upon the success of either
side.

HIS LANDLADY

With blood streaming from several
wounds on her face, Mrs. Victoria OILS
zinski, living in a shack near Jeffer-
son street and Eighteenth avenue, came
to the police station at II o'clock last
night and asked that a warrant be
sworn out for one of her boarders by
the name of Pete Grima.
According to the frightened little wo-
mans tory, Grima came home intoxi-
Gated last night and started to quar-
rel with her husband. Grima then be-
came Infatuated and attacked the wo-
man and even went so far as to throw
her three-months-old child out of its
cradle. Several of the other boarders
interfered and the fight was stopped.
officer William Marquard accompanied
the woman to her home with the war
rant. but Grfma had made his escape.

Mayor Tom Knots of Gary has the
fight of his life on his hands.
The democratic party there is split
into two factions, which were arraigned
against. each other last night.
It looks like war to the hilt hence
forth
The charges of unfairness IN the con-
duct of the democratic mass meeting,
held last night in the Schlitz building
in Gary, was made by President Knots
of the town board, in a. war of words"
between two factions of the democratic
party. The matter came to an issue
when the motion was made for the
chairman Of the meeting, Robert En-
met O'Connor, to appoint q committee
of nine which We're to arrange for the
meetings in their respective wards
Knots Takes the Floor.
Mr.. Knots sprang to his feet at once
and claimed that the appointment of
this committee by one man was unfair
and undemocratic, and suggested that
persons from each of the wards should
be allowed to select their representa-
tives on the committee.
The speech of Mr.. Knots precipi-
tated general debate in which, for
the first time in the history of the
democratic party in Gary the Knots
and anti-Knotts factions were arraign-
ed against each other. When the mo-
ton before the house was put to a
vote the result was decisive, 20 to IL
against Knots Mr.. OConnor selected
the nine committeeman.
Previous to the calling of the meet
ing Mr.. Knots objected to proceeding
with the business because of the small
attendance and the fact, as he claimed
that the public had not received the
proper notification. He even claimed
that his adversaries had packed the
small rooms in the Schlitz building
where the business was conducted.
CroIlfus Takes Issue.
The first man to take issue with
Mayor Knots was ex-Mayor Crolliu:
of Joliet, now candidate for the may
crafty in this city and probably the only
