MISS FELKER
DROPS DEAD
tFrom Sundays Advertiser

Miss Allie NJ. Felker, principal of
Kaahumanu School, died suddenly of
heart disease yesterday afternoon
shortly after four clock at her home
on Church road, Manoa valley. For
the past two months Miss Felker had
been sufferer and under medical sur
velllance, and she realized lately that
her condition was precarious. Only
three or four days ago she said that
she believed she had not long to live.
Her death followed more severe at
tack than usual.
Miss Felker was born in Almond,
Wis, May "a, 1853. She went to Cal
ifornia when young girl and settled
with her parents in Pleasant Valley.
near Santa Cruz. She was graduate
of the San Jose Normal School and of
Hailmann S Training School of Kin
dergarten in Laporte, Inu., and was
critic teacher in the training depart
ment of the latter institution for many
years She was well known ms an in
stitute lecturer throughout California.
Her health failing, she was obliged to
give up her position and came to Ho-
nolulu, to be with friends, in the
spring of 1899.
She began her public school career
here as teacher in the Kaiulani
school, and in the following November,
when the plague was prevalent, she
volunteered her services as nurse in
the detention camp. She gave herself
unIeseIvedly to the work of alleviat-
ing the sufferings of the patients,
thereby winning the gratitude of the
community.
In 1901 she was appointed principal
of Kaahumanu school. AS the head of
this large school she put forth her eff
forts to make 1t conspicuous example
of good results, and not only main
tanned an enthusiastic interest among
the teachers, but caused the scholars
to take unusual interest in their stud
les and by-play suggested by Miss
Felker. She was extremely patriotic,
and instilled Americanism into the cos
mopolitan attendance in manner
which was quite thorough.
Miss Felker was one of the most
generous and kindhearted women in
Honolulu, and her death is a loss to the
cause of education and charity. She
has prepared several works of inter
est for young people and has written
many articles which have ar peared in
popular magazines. She had just fin
ished the revision of a book which she
spent many years upon, md the work
IS now in the hands of the printers.
She was member of the Rebekahs.
Miss FelSer left brother residing
IN Santa Cruz and cousin, Miss
Grace, who was visiting her at the time
of her DEATH
The funeral will be private, notice
of which will be given later.

Is
Acadia parish is already about to
abandon It's system Of working parish
c%onvicta on the public roads, although
it has not given II d trial.
The Signal relates the first attempt
Of bringing the eonvicts TO work as
follows:
The police jury has begun to en-
counter difficulties in its plan Of en-
ploying the parish ~conyicts On the
public roads. When the representa-
lives Of the police jury started to
take out the prisoners this morning
it was found that about half Of them
were unavailable for various reasons.
Three boys under eighteen could not
be taken out because, as the sherif's
Office explained, It was illegal to work
them. Some 81 the prisoners we're
sick and ! number had to be kept at
the jail to clean the premises. About
half Of the prisoners we're available
for the use Of the police jury and
they we're not taken out.
It is probable that the practice Of
working the prisoners will be discon-
tinaed by the police jury for the rea-
son that too small j percentage Of
the prisoners can be secured BY them.
Police Juror Brooks hes nearly com
pIeted the purchase Of the camping
outfit for the use Of the road gang.

All the employees of the Indiana Steel

local banks remained open as usual till
9 o'clock for the convenience of the

siderable less than the last pay. but
this was occasioned by deductions be-
ing made for stock and rents.

Morning.
Especial to THE T1MEs.)

East Chicago, Dec. 11--There is no
intention on the part of the school
board to close the schools of East Chi
cago and Indiana Harbor. on account
of the epidemic of scarlet fever that
prevails in the Twin Cities.
'I do not think the situation is s1f-
ficiently serious to warrant any such
drastic measures said Mr. Canine. 1T
is unfortunate that the DeLor store
was allowed to remain open so long
after scarlet fever developed in the
family. but we are in hopes that no
serious developments will accrue The
teachers are instructed to watch the
children under their charge vigilantIy,
and in case they discover any child
who exhibits the slightest symptoms of
the maladyA the child is sent home.
Also If the teachers hear of a child
having been exposed to the disease, the
child is sent home.
I'm small towns It is frequently the
case that the schools are closed on ac-
count of a single case of scarlet fever

scarcely be followe doQt in East Chi
cago, where it would be impracticable
to close the schools, unless the situa-
ton become very grave indeed. More
harm would follow in the case of the

LOOKING
FOR GARY
YOUNG MAN
IT Year Old Starke County
Girl Dies From Mercurial
Poison, and Gary Youth Is
Held Responsible for Her
Death.

Knox, Ind, Dec. IA Gary young
man is being sought by the authori-
ties Of this county and Starke county
is worked up over sensations this week.
the greatest of which is the death of
Josie Pucwett, 17-year-old girl at
the home of her mother, Mrs Hiram
Dean, at ODER, this county. The girl
was brought home from South Bend
suffering from mercurial poisoning.
The girl died in terrible agony She
was unable to talk and so before her
death she wrote down the story of her
misfortune. The girl had been work
ing in Gary, but Saturday, Nov. 81 she
went to South Bend saying she was
going to work at the Lafayette hotel.
She went to the hotel where she met
young man, but after a couple Of
days the man disappeared. and then it
was discovered that the girl was in a
terrible condition. A criminal opera
ton had been performed. After doc
tors were called in. the mother was no.
titled and she had the girl taken home.
After the death, Coroner Fischer held
a post morton. which showed that cor
rosive sublimate had been administer
ed to the girl. He found that death
was due to internal -hemorrhages, su
perduced by mercurial poisoning. The
name of the young man who met the
girl in South Bend and who was with
her for a couple of days is not known
but he is said to be from Gary Cor
oner Fischer is making an effort TO
learn his name. in order that a war
rant may be issued for his arrest.

Death Crossing at Indiana
Harbor Protected to
Some Degree.
Special to THE T1MEs.l

Indiana Harbor, Ind, Dec 1.-THE
Pennsylvania railroad has Installed it's
gates at the Michigan avenue crossing
of its right of way and workmen are
now at work on the Waiting street
gates The Michigan avenue gates
were operated yesterday and work
without a hitch. The gates have long
been a necessity, the urgency of which
was emphasized Monday when Joe Sc
kulski met his death at the crossing.
The tragedy seems doubly unfortunate,
inasmuch as the railroad company at
that time had workmen at work put
ting in the gates which had been or
dered by the city council at the las
meeting of that body.

the finishing Of the painting of the
wrought iron posts with aluminium
cannot be done until spring. owing Ia
the snow and the cold weather.
The turning on of the lights this
evening will be featured by the fact
that the switch will be thrown on for
the first time by little Louise Shaw. the
seven year old daughter of F. A. Shaw.
chief clerk of the Gary Heat Light g
Water company. The city officials will
be present at the event. Manager
Shaw said this noon that the company
would not charge the city for the pow.
er the first night and. that the charged

He also said that the lights of the spe.
cial system on Broadway will total 49,

FIGHTS NARROWLY AVERTEU
Chorus Girl" Proposition In Gary

Magic City.

Neiman's imposition" known as the
Princess theater, is still running in full
blast. As for the baby blue" chorus
the plot still thiekens and the names
of several Gary lawyers and other men
well known to the public and whose
names have not been spelled correctly
on certain hotel registers, and who
have established better regulations as
stage door Johnnies than they have in
their business vocations. have become
common property the length and
breadth Of Broadway.
few nights ago fight was mar
rowly averted by rivals of these young
ladies on Broadway, and scenes in
restaurants after the show make ap-
parent the class that is now furnishing
the amusement at this theater for
which an admission of ten cents is
charged. billed as a musical comedy
and in which the bewhiskered jokes
are so stale, the people go to admire
the monumental nerve of the artist that
springs them.
As is usually the case the morbid cur
iosity of the public. led them to pat
ronize this place extensively since the
recent criticism of THE TINES, but in
most cases the patrons slipped in and
slipped out of the place after accu-
rate observations of the vicinity that
would put Explorer Cook to shame.
Not many of them would admit that
they We're there afterwards, either.
The chorus girl proposition in Gary
is becoming serious. Not only are some
of them of tender years, but many OF
them deport themselves in manner
so brazen that they have been regarded
as public demoralizers.
