Daughter of the Ghetto. ;,

rms drama presented by the Jack
Bessey company promises TO be one of
the most talked of plays of the season.
1t is play of power and engrossing
interest, and is an absolutely novel
treatment Of the old theme, the Chris
tian and the Jew. Tt is written by
Miron Lefhngwen. 1t posses a triple
metive-scientifc-t war of sex, and
social race prejudice, all woven into a
story of suspense which holds the in
terest until the final curtain. All the
characters are of contemporaneous
type and while truthfulIy drawn there
is nothing to offend. This play is pc
culiarly apropos at this time. when the
young Turks rising at Constantinople
has resulted in Jews being admitted to
the site of the Holy Temple on Mount
Zion from which they have been BAN
ished for so many hundred years. "A
Daughter of the Ghetto" is cast to the
full strength Of Mr.. Bessey's admirable
ofganization-and is correctly staged.
1t is real drama and well worth see
ing. Remember. ladies free Monday
night under usual conditions, when
The Sweetest Girl of All" will be pre-
scented.

HAMMOND BOAT CLUB To Be

With the approach of the cold wealth
er the Hammond Motor Boat club will
enter upon season of social activity.
The club is not to lose its identity dur
ing the winter months. for there will
be stag meetings for the mel.bers, and
after the organization of a ladies' auxil-
larry, social sessions for all, and now
and then some function to which the
public is invited.
The betterment of the club for its
next years campaign is not to be for
gotten, for the club as a body will con-
tinue to use its influence for the i'm
provement Of navigat ton on the Grand
Calumet river. The campaign is to ex-
tend especially against the bridges
which are now an obstruction against
the closing of the river near Miller.
and the strict enforcement of the
rules and regulations for river .naviga-

FIND COW
IN NEWLY
MADE GRAVE.

East Chicago, Oct 9.=What appear
ed to be newly made grave was dis
covered not far from the right of way
of the Chicago, Lake Shore & South
Bend Interurban near where it crosses
the E. J. E. railroad in the vicinity
Of the new pumping station for the big
sewer yesterday. The men who discov-
cred the mound of freshly dug earth
proceeded to investigate and after
digging a short while came upon the
carcass of COW.
Further digging releaved the fact
that the COW was in good state of pre-
srvation. and hpon notifying the po-
lice, the latter made an investigation
which led to the discovery that the
cow was one that had been reported
missing by Steve Embelmos. of ATS
Melville avenoe, Sept. 80.
The circumstances leads TO the belief
that the COW was struck by an inter
urban car and that crew, not wishing
to shoulder the responsibility, buried
the animal without reporting the ac-
cident to their company or to the pub
lie authorities. Embelmos will make an
investigation, and if he can secure the
necessary evidence will put in a claim
for damages against the company.

FIVE FIRE BUGS
ARE CAPTURED

clothes on, preparatory to making their
escape after the fire was thoroughly
started.
A number of bags and suit cases
were also discovered to have been
packed. ready to be taken away on the
shortest possible notice Mike Kos
vich, one of the men, who had been
given quite a sum of money for the
loss Of his fingers in the Standard
Steel Car company, had made arrange
ments for the purchase of a ticket TO
the old country, and within a few
weeks expected to be safe in the faith
erland
The building was owned by the Pabst
Brewing company. and it is not known
what could have been the motive OF
these five men to burn down the build
ing. In fact. the police profess to have
discovered no motive for the burning
of the building. and say that the whole
affair IS a mystery to them.
Search for Motive.
They could not have claimed insur-
ance on the building because it was
not insured by them, and the furni-
ture in the place could not have been
worth a ten dollar bill. according to
the police officers.
1t is possible that the culprits re-
moved the furniture and then expected
that the fire would destroy the evil
dence of It's removal and they could
get the insurance on it. But this is al
speculation on the part of the police
officers, who have as yet failed to fin6
any rOotfvp for +he crime
About all that was left in the build
ing when the fire was started was &
cash register. a pin of whisky and hall
a barrel of beer. A matter which may
have bearing on the case IS the fac
that the Pabst Brewing company was
compelled to foreclose on the former
owner of the building to secure pay
ment for beer purchased, and the at
tempt at arson might have been in
cited by the former owner of the build
ing as matter of revenge. This is bu
one Of the theories offered in explana
ton for the motive of the men who
attempted to burn the place.
The cases were called in Judge Nc
Mahon's court and continued unit
Monday at o'clock.
