WOMAN
SUES SPOUSE
FOR DIVORCE

One of the most sensational divorce
cases that has been filed in the Lake
superior court for some time is that
entered in the docket today, in which
Maude Meyers seeks a decree against
Everett Meyers, a laborer. who former
ly lived in the southern part of Lake
county, near the Kankakee river.
The complaint states that he is guilty
of practically every misdemeanor to-
ward his wife that could have been
committed To begin with he was de-
clared to be an habitual drunkard, and
frequently appeared about the house
while under the influence of liquor. He
also called her vicious names. struck
and abused her until her life became
a burden TO her. In addition to these
unpleasant things he was accustomed
to fly into a rage, on which occasions
it was hard to tell what he was likely
to do
At one time he struck her a terrific
blow in the face and she was forced to
lock herself in her room to escape his
attack.
Meyers is now a nonresident of the
state and has abandoned his wife since
Dtc. 13, 1905. Mrs. Meyers resides al
Green's hotel, on Calumet avenue. The
complaint was filed by Attorney W. H
Sickman.

F't. Wayne Doctor Locates

Hates to Lose Him.
HOSPITAL PASSES RESOLUTION
DR.. II. S. Merz Is Honored By
Confrers Is City He
Has Left,

Hammond corps of able physicians
has been strengthened by a profession
al man whom Fort Wayne regretted to
lose. The newest arrival, DR.. H G.
Merz, does not come to Hammond as a
stranger, having practiced in Hammond
seventeen years ago. Hammond was
then not the city it is now, and DR..
Merz was induced to go to Fort Wayne,
where. at the time Of his leaving, he
was chairman of the Lutheran hospital
staff. Hammond friends, however, have
gont to him and persuaded him to re-
turn to this promising territory. and
Dr. Merz has decided to remain here
permanently. He has opened offices in
the Lake County Savings and Trust
Companys building. at the corner of
State and Holman streets.
An idea of the high esteem and re-
spect in which DR. Merz was held in
Fort Wayne may be gained from the
following resolution which a commit
tee, composed of Drs z. A Cruel. H A.
Duemling. r. VanSweringen and G. G.
Brudi of the Lutheran hospital staff.
reported and adopted
Whereas, DR.. Henry G. Merz has de-

Whereas DR. Merz in his residence

NONOORF
IS FINED

Young Thomas Nondorf, the Ham
mond youth, who was accused of accost-
ing an 11-year-old girl and attempt
ing to entice her into an alley, was
fined yesterday in Judge McMahon's
court $2o and costs, amounting to $50.
The details of the case showed shock
ing depravity on the part of the defend
ant in the case Upon his promise to
be good in the future he was only
charged with disorderly conduct and
fined upon that charge.
The girl was accosted upon her re-
turn home from store and asked to go
into the alley. She ran home and pale
with fright told her story TO her moth
er. Officer Frenck was detailed on the
case and soon found the young man.
He was identified by the parents of the
child.

OH, SUAVE
IS OIL KING
TO AUTOISTS

John D. Rockefeller doesn't believe in
quarreHng with his bread and butter.
This is shown by the courteous treat
ment which he shows to consumers of
his products.
Hammond automobilists, as well as
those in other cities, have often no
ticed with surprise the difference that
is shown them by drivers of Standard
Oil wagons. Whenever an oil wagon
meets an automobile the first driver
will invariably turn out and clear the
road to the latter. It has happened so
many times that it cannot be called
merely coincidentaI.
One man has explained it after this
fashion:
John D. realizes that the autos are
among his best patrons and so this
great capitalist has given instructions
to his octopus TO show automobiles the
greatest respect. All along those great
J tentacles the word has been passed
| along. If you don't believe it, watch
the next oil wagon you pass while
riding in an auto"

Gostlin and William AhIborn, inspected
the new pavement in Chicago, known as
tarvia, We're favorably impressed with
what they saw. Tarvia pavement is
nothing more than a macadam street
with a top dressing in which the princi-
pal ingredient is tar. 1t is what might
be termed the poor mans pavement
and is guaranteed to give good salts
faction. especially on side streets, it
being noiseless and dustless, and can
be repaired at a very reasonable cost
The pavement. however, is not old
enough to have afforded test for age
and durability.
