STOPPED RUNAWAY.
Agility of Joseph LoiseIe APplauded
by Spectators.

Joseph Loiselle, employed In Pray's
market made a spectacular stop of a
runaway horse on Elm street Monday
morning. Loiselle made a flying tackle
catching the horse around the neck
and by the bits as it came dashing
along at a wild pace and hung on like
a spring cold until the animal came to
a standstill. The nervy piece of work
received due recognition from those
who witnessed the incident. The horse
which had been hitched near the
Church Clothing company store, and
was in the care of the Misses Sum
ner of Mechanic street, became fright
ened at a hand truck on which a trunk
was being wheeled along the sidewalk
and pulled back, breaking the hitch

Chess and Checks,

Chess was originally the game Of
kings, the game of shahs. The word
shah" became in old French "eschac,"
while the old French "eschecs" was
further corrupted into chess" The
more original form chez has likewise
been preserved, though we little think
of it when we draw a cheque, or
when we suffer a check, or when we
speak of the chancellor Of the ex-
chequer. The great object of the chess
player is to protect the king, and
when the king is in danger the op-
ponent is obliged to say check" !. e.,
shah. the king. After this the various
meanings of check, cheque, or ex-
chequer become easily ineligible. Elk
chequer, or scaccarium. the name OF
the chess board, was afterward used
for the checkered cloth on which &C
counts were calculated by means OF
counters.

EMERsoN's MEMORY AT FAULT.
Had at Times Almost Entire Lack
of Remembrance.

Emerson was a notable sufferer
from the vagaries of memory. His BIZ
ographer relates that he met him one
day in Boston, apparently at loss for
something. and asked him where he
was going. ITO dine" said Emerson,
with very old and dear friend. l
know where she lives. but hope she
won't ask me her name" and then he
proceeded to describe her as the
mother of the WIFI of the young man
the tall man-who speaks so well,
and so on, until his interlocutor
guessed to whom he was referring.
Even the names of common objects
often failed him completely. On one
occasion, when he wanted an unbrel-
la, he said: 'T can't tell its name. but
| can tell its history. Strangers take
it away"
This failing of Emerson led to a
pathetic scene when he attended
Longfellow's funeral, and remarked as
he gazed at the coffin: He was g
sweet and beautiful soul; but / have
entirely forgotten his name"

New York, Jan. IA new departure
In the profit sharing plan, giving it's
employees the privilege of subscribing

MORRIS. WE'LL GETS
DESIRABLE LEASE
Secures News and Lunch
Counter Concession on
Interurban.
WILL FORM STOCK COMPANY
To Erect Stands at South Bend,
Michigan City, Hammond
and Tolleston.

Morris We'll of Gary has recently Sc
cured a very important concession
from the Chicago, Lake Shore and
South Bend railroad. The privilege
accorded to the Gary man is that of
establishing lunch counters, news
stands and soda fountains at all of
the stations along the route from South
Bend to Chicago
That this is an important acquisition
is shown by the fact that there have
been many applicants from all parts
of the country for the right to estab-
lish the counters in the various depots
along the line. This business will un-
questionably prove very profitable. es-
pecially in the summer when the de-
mand for ice cream will be greatest.
Mr. We'll will form a stock company
at once and put in his lunch counters
as soon as possible. The man whom
he has selected to have charge of the
Gary station is Thomas Magromos
who is the owner of the Olympic Candy
kitchen, which is the largest in this
| city. Magromos is also a member OF
the stock company and 1t may be pos
sible that he will be given charge o.
the operation of lunch counters in al
of the cities in which they will be es
tablished.
The places that the lunch counter:
and soda fountains will be put in are

WANT GARY PROPERTY
Logansport People Believe
Investment Would Be
Good One.

DIR. J. A Little of Logansport, Ind.
and another business man of that place
came to Gary yesterday for the purpose
of purchasing real estate here, and
possibly to improve it in the near fu-
ture. DR.. Little has heard much OF
Gary and he believes that an invest
ment in this city would prove very
profitable.
Mr. Otto Borman of the Borman-
Waldron Realty company, reports that
the Logansport contractor, G. S. Avery
who recently purchased fifteen acres in
Toleston, in section eight. and who haC
intended to improve the property al
once, has decided that because of the
recent cold spell that the work of con.
structing the houses would be post
poned until the season opened in TIL,
spring.
In regard to the character of tn,
building which will he will erect. Mr.
Borman stated that the sixteen build
ings would cost from $4,000 to $500
each, and the subdivision would b.
made as exclusive as possible He ais,
stated that many others would be erect
ed as soon as the first were either sol,
or rented.

NOT As MUCH MONEY
As At FIRST PLANNED
Present Outlook Is That Only About
$1,000 Will Be Raised as Starter
DIR. J. G. Watson Is Admitted to
Membership of Organizations
Resident Of Tolleston.

Two hundred dollars was appropri-
ated yesterday afternoon by the Gary
Commercial club for the purpose of
boosting the superior court question
and bringing 1t before the legislature
This will be placed in a general fund,
which will consist of various amounts,
to be appropriated by the organizations
represented in the citizens general
committee.
This is the first organization to
make an appropriation, and they We're
expected to make the largest donation
to the cause of any of the bodies rep
resented. Even at the rate of 5000 per
organization, the general committee
will not raise more than $1,000 to ST.
500. This appears as if those connect
ed with the attempt to get a superior
court for Gary had come to the con-
clusion that it does not require as much
money as they thought it would, and
the question is to have the plans
changed or was the expense r-esti-
mated by the finance committee.
The report of the treasurer of the
Commercial club. which was received
yesterday, shows that the organization
still has a balance in its treasury OF
$500. This amount is after the ex-
penditure was made for the junketing
trip to South Bend and many other ex.
penses. which have been incurred BY
the association. The amount of $500
however, will be reduced by the appro
priation, which was made by the club
yesterday.
Another member, DR.. ]. c. Watson
was taken into the club yesterday. DR.

chased at Gary by the American LO-
connective company, a $4,000, 900 cOrpO-
rmtk0n.
The plant WIN provide employment
for from 1000 to 6,OOO men. The
deal through which the locomotive
company secures title to 100 acres of
land at Gary was completed yesterday.
The plot OF ground on which the big
locomotive plant will be erected was
brought from the Gary Land company,
q subsidiary concern of the United
States Steel corporation. None of the
other plants of the American Locomo-
tive company occupy more than sixty
acres.
Plans for the huge plant have al
ready been drawn, and it was given
out by the company that the work OF
construction would begin Immediately
The land purchased adjoins that on
which the new plant of the United
States Steel corporation is situated. 1t
is understood that interests of the two
big corporations are closely allied.
The site at Gary, twenty-four miles
from Chicago, where the largest num-
Der of railroads converge at a single
commercial center. is declared superior
to any other location in the country.
The Chicago district is a large rail
road center, and Is rapidly develop

material for building locomotives.
The American Locomotive company
now operates plants in Schenectady
and Dunkirk. N. Y; Pittsburg and
Scranton, Pa; Richmond, Va; Pater-
son, N j.: Manchester, N. H. and Mon
treal, Canada. It is believed that the
establishment of the big plant at Gary
means the company will eventually
abandon its other plants, with the ex
ception of that at Montreal, consoli
dating its manufacturing interests. fol
the purposes of economy, at Gary. Th'
Montreal plant will probably continue
to supply the Canada trade.

About HAPPINESS.

There is no more beneficial tonic
than good, hearty laughter 1t in
fiates the lungs and has a magic eff
feet upon the system. Giggling is not
laughing, and it is habit that brings
wrinkles and soon spoils even a pref
ty face. Why not laugh? 1t improves
the appearance and makes one popu-
lar. There is nothing to be glum over,
and, if there is. being glum will not
help it. Be happy and bright and
everyone will wish to help you. The
girl who wants to be beautiful must
sleep with fresh air, plenty of it, in
her room. She must go out and revel
in the sunshine. She must find plenty
of laughter in her daily life. That is
the only true way to live and the only
way capable of bringing beauty.
