World Is Alarmed.
Nearly every civilized country has
been alarmed at the appalling NOR
! tality among the babies, and in many
| places special efforts have been made
TO lower the death rate. One of the
most conspicuously successful of these
was tried in England, and is now gen.
orally spoken of as the Huddersfield
plan But there is Just as much cause
to call it the Broadbent plan, for IL
was Mayor Broadbent of Hudders-
field who announced on the day of his
election in 1904 that he would give a
prize of about s5 to the mother of
every child born during during his
year of office. 1t was stipulated.
though, that the child was to be alive
and well, and was to be brought to
the town hall on the appointed day.
As means of insuring intelligent care
for the children. a committee of wo-
men was appointed. who visited the
mothers and gave them simple. prac-
tical instructions in the proper hy-
giene and feeding Of the babies.
When the exhibition day arrived.
100 lively healthy babies were enter
ed in the baby show. and their moth
ers received the promised award. In
cidentally. when the town clerk made
up the vitality records for the year.
it was found that the death rate of
131 babies in a thousand had gone
down to 81 in thousand. Small Won
der the municipal "baby show" was
voted great success.
Gcrmany's Methods.
In many parts Of Germany, while !
the baby show does not figure con-
spicuously on the program the plan |
is in force by instructing the moth |
ers through regularly appointed |
board of visitors. In some of the Ger |
man cities, among them Cologne,

critical weeks of its life In our own
country the education of the mother
Is one of the most important features
OF the work of the visiting nurses. In
some communities the way is prepar-
ed for the more intelligent care of the
babies by the distribution Of educa-
tional leaflets by the local boards with
which vital statistics are usually kept.

of John DESSERT. who was arrested on
charge of assault and battery, was
brought up for trial.
The warrant for the arrest of Dissert
was sworn out by Mrs Annie Jensen. a
widow woman who lives at 62S vir-
ginia street and who keeps boarding

statement. Dissert. who is a boarder

ing jealous of another OF Mrs. Jen-
sens boarders. proceeded to make
things lively for the night at the Jen-
sen home The plaintiff stated that
Dissert paid the rent, to the amount of
s26 each month, and for that amount he
was to receive his board and lodging.
His only eyesore was one of the

and being of a Jealous disposition, Dis
sert on Saturday night pulled the land
lady's hair and insisted that if she did
not GUST the ardent admirer that he

When DESSERT was placed on the

many tokens of his love. He stated
that IT was his intention to marry Mrs.
Jensen. but she had not returned his
affections
Judge Knots placed the fine or Dis

the two were about to leave the court
room that the little scene was enacted
DESSERT, 1t was evident. intended To

himself temporarily into tow mule

Indianapolis, Ind. Nov. 2s.-The No

Of these are Of the utmost Importance
but most Of them are Just the average

and eight have been overruled in the
appellate court leaving 914 on the
docket to be disposed of. According
to the rate the cases have been dis

number is sufficient to keep both courts
busy for two years without any adj
ditional cases being filed The average

compiled. is asa cases for both courts.
T. Y Fitzpatrick clerk Of the SUI

The new billet mill was completed
just in time to relieve a strained sit
uation in the Chicago plants of the
corporation. 1t is customary in a steel
plant with several finishing depart
ments to have more rolling capacity
! in the aggregate than the tonnage Of
steel ingots. This arrangement, which
has prevailed In the Chicago plants
grows out Of the fact that 1t is seldom
that all the finishing departments are
! operated concurrently at full capacity
during normal times. The extraordi.
nary conditions which have prevailed
this fall have thrown every finishing
department far behind in it's specifica-
tions. with the exception of the raj
mills. and under these conditions tn,
output of finished products has beer

/ from them to prorate the supply among

The new report of the ditch commits
sioners of the Burns ditch Will be filed
with the Porter county superior court
at Valparaiso on the 21st of December
and the case viii be resumed
Attorney Frank B. Pattee Of Crown
Point, who is one Of the attorneys with
Randall Burns for the petitioner, stated
to q TIMES reporter that the chances
for building the big drain next year
looked very bright. The reason for
fling the new report is that the con-
struction of the ditch will be visibly
changed. in that an area Of over eight
miles VIII be cut Of from the proposed
course. III
When the former petition was pre-
scented to the court the greatest length
OF the proposed work was in Porter
county. but when the eommi toner's
reported they added an area about
eight miles in length, all Of which is
In Porter county. This made the great
est length as reported IN Lake county
The court then held that he could not
construct the drain with its greatest
length laid out in Lake county, so 1T
was referred to the commissioners for
new report.
IT is likely that when they report on

new ANGLE
IN SALOON
CASE TRIAL
Vote in Calumet Township
Greater Than Anti Saloon
League Claimed, and New
Signatures to Remon-
STRANGE May Be Necessary

A new angle to the Gary saloon
cases has been discovered by Attor-
new Leonard, who is representing Bin
zen and Scanlon in the cases now be-
fore the superior court at Valparaiso.
This is the fact that the vote in Cal
umet township at the election previous
to the time that the remonsrance was
circulated. was greater than the Anti
Saloon league claimed that 1t was, and
this would necessitate a greater num-
Der of signatures to the remonstrance.
simultaneously with the supposed
discovery the attorneys found that
there either was no record of the vote
cast in Calumet township at that time
or the record had been stolen. All eff
forts to secure the official document
have failed and the attorneys have re-
verified to other sources to secure this
information.
The remonstrance people claim that
the vote at the township election was
331, but the fact has been revealed
that there was a socialist and a pro-
hibition ticket which also had a mum
Der OF votes. This would require the
remonstrance circulators to secure
more than was actually necessary, Il
will mean if this fact can be proven
that the saloonmen Will have fewer
names to knock out to invalidate the
remembrance.
1t is expected that the witnesses fol
the Anti Saloon league will be through
by the end of this week, owing to th'
fact that there will be no court aftel
tomorrow, and the witnesses for th'
saloon league will be heard beginning
Monday, If the cases progress as rap
idly as 1t is expected they will.

GOVERNOR
INTERESTED
IN GARY
Marshall Wants to See for
Himself What the Situa-
tion Is and Will Satisfy
His Curiosity on Trip He
Is to Make.

Instead Of giving the Gary commit
tee of the St. Andrews society five
minute interview at Indianapolis last
Saturday. Governor Marshall detained
them in his office an hour and five min
utes, during which the men We're ques-
toned and questioned as to the
conditions in this city during the past
and present. The committee consisted
Of Arthur Carnduff, Clyde Hunter, Will
liam MacNeill and ]. Caldwell Smith.
7 want it thoroughly understood"
said the governor that l have no
prejudice against Gary. Z hone that
conditions in your city have not been
as bad as they have been pictured by
many of your citizens and by the news
papers during the heat Of the cam
paign.
The entire Gary situation in fact was
thrashed out with the four Gary Scoth-
men who went there largely for the
purpose of bringing the chief executive
to this city to show him that Gary was
good city. The men were forced to
admit that there has been lawlessness
in the city, and that there were a few
riots previous to election, but in gen
eral they stated that the city was not
so bad as it had been pictured by the
outside press.
Governor Marshall accepted the in
vitation largely because he desired TO
see the city. speak to the citizens and
| impress upon them that he did not bear
them any antagonism. When he ar
rives on the date of the st. Andrew
society banquet he VIII be shown
| throughout the entire city. 1t was
thought that because of the condition
of his throat that he could not be in
duced to come TO Gary, but he stated
that II the people Of Gary wanted him
that he considered that it would be his
duty to come.
VIII Try to Get McCutcheons.
The ST. Andrews society will now
make an attempt TO get the famous Nc
Cutcheons to come to this city on that
| date If possible These men are also
Scotchmen. George Barr McCutcheor
is the famous novelist. while John T
McCuteheon is one OF the greatest car
toonists in The country The latter is
at present in Africa but it is believed
that he Will return before the Burns
banquet is held
The preparation for the Burns ban
quet will now go ahead with renewed
interest and every effort viii be made
to make the affair one of the biggest
events ever pulled off in Gary. Gov
ernor Marshall. himself is a Scotch
man, and no doubt will thoroughly en-.
JOY the banquet to the fullest extent.
