A DAY IN GARY LAND
HEARD BY RUBE.


Tumble weeds are stalling trains and
real harm that they have done in Gary
is covering some of the lots for which
our enterprising real estate dealers had
a prospective buyer.
Their is one consolation in the fact
that February is the shortest month in
the year.
In creating the park at Miller Sta
ton it is to be hoped the state will pro-
vide a regulation bathing suit for the
bathing beach.
During the present siege of cold
weather we opine that the average
Gary man is getting his fill of wooden
blankets and flannel cakes
There are still many sidewalks about
Gary that need about two hours prac-
tice with a snow shovel.
You notice that the weather is cold.
So do the poor who have little shelters
and less fire and food. Help them all
you can.
In few weeks to come Gary will
have four scent theaters. We offer
as suggestion that the managers
put on the SUNNY dance in or
der to make it a paying investment.
| Green onions, fresh radishes and let
tuce have appeared in the Gary mar
ket, but it will be some time before
they will appear on the boarding house
table.
In case your wtaer pipes freeze ir
the future call on George O'Donnell OF
the Gary hotel Eighteen water pipes
in one day is only a small matter fol
him to thaw out.
ANY time the Chicago papers are {
little short on copy they proceed tt

Not for publication at ALL but how
would you like to pay for all the Goa
that was burned in Gary during th'
blizzard.

SETTLE OUT OF COURT
Sasko and Hudackyo Reach
an Agreement.
Especial to THE T1MEsl


East Chicago. Ind, Dec. 2.-Charles
Sasko and George Hudackyo decided
not to air their troubles in Judge
Kaskes court at Indiana Harbor yes
terday and reached a settlement where
by the charges of embezzlement laid
against Sasko were dismissed. The ac-
tion was a sensible one as Mr.. Sas-
kos position as politician and bust
ness man would be seriously damaged
vert he found guilty of the criminal
charge.
The settlement was affected by Sas-
ko paying his former partner S45, on
condition that the latter would pay
the court costs. This was assented to
and Sasko paid over the money The
court costs were very large and it is
understood that Hudackyo had but Sc
left after disbursing his share of the
Indebtedness.

East Chicago Merchants Say
Farewell to the Trad

ESPECIAL to THE T1MEal

Indiana Harbor. Ind, Feb Fare
well to the trading stamp Welcome
the Nickelodeum ticket. The days of
the trading stamp are about over and
the complimentary ticket to the ten
cent show around the corner is about
to fill its place Housewives will no
doubt miss their premium crockery,
rockers, rugs and dress goods that they
have been getting with $40 worth of
purchases, shoe strings included, but
viii have to pick up their little red
tickets, borrow a nickel from the '.old
man" and take in the moving picture
shows.
With every dollars worth of goods
bought at any Of these places a free
ticket is given to the theater perform
ance. That is, the ticket must be &C
companied by five cents before admis-
sion is granted. The tickets. more
over, will be valid on any day of the
week, excepting Saturday and Sunday
It is to be hoped that no more Of tbs
| energetic theater managers attempt the
new trading stamp" plan as It would
really be embarrassing to walk boldly
up to a ten-cent theater on a Saturday
night, hand out red instead of vel
/ low ticket and then try to get through
without paying the extra nickel.

Are Allowed to Work Pend.
ing Settlement.

officials Of the carpenters union and
contractors employed on the Emerson
school house got together yesterday
noon for a conference on the strike
which was recently called on the build
ing. IT was decided to let the men go
back to work until the difficulties
could be settled so that the men would
not lose any more time and the work
on the building would not be retarded.
The strike on the building was called
because of the employment of several
non-union steamftters. The other
union men on the job refused to work
with the non-union men and a general
strike was declared.

Behind the scenes.
Larceny,

The stage manager of one of the
Glasgow theaters was, in the old days,
well known for his impetuous and
hasty temper.
On one occasion drama was put on,
in which a snowstorm occurred. Some
men were sent up into the flies with
brown paper bags filled with little
pieces of white paper, which they let
fall TO represent the snow. Suddenly
the shower stopped.
"Whaur's your snaw?" roared the
irate manager.
I'VE haze nae mair white paper" came
loud whisper from above
Then shaw broom, We fools, shaw
broom" was the managers response

yesterday to see what could be done
