The advantages OF an electrical

Gently been portrayed. showing that
wherever electricity is available at

Toward the close Of the molting sea

do not have enough to eat they will

AGED MAN
FOUND DEAD
IN HIS BED

Edward Dahms. aged ~, the father
of Mrs Fred Sommers, 2SS South Hoh-
man street, was found dead in bed last
evening after the fears of the family
had been aroused by his long absence
from home.
The cause of his death is not known,
although it is thought that it was the
result of an apoplectic stroke. The de-
ceased had been in perfect health and
had been going to work every day.
Yesterday it was thought that he
left for his work. but when he failed
to put in an appearance in the even
ing an effort was made to open the
door of his room which he usually kept
locked.
The door could not be opened. and
so Mr.. Sommers looked over the tran
som and his worst fears were realized.
Acting Coroner I. w Oberlin was noti-
fed The inquest will be held this aft
ernoon.
The deceased is survived by Amel
Krieger, Henry Krieger, Otto Krieger,
William Speikir and Mrs. Fred Som
mers. The funeral arrangements have
been made. The funeral will be held
tomorrow at l o'clock from the house
and at o'clock from the church.

In Harrison park a number of trees

badly damaged.

DIVE MAY
PROVE FATAL

Charles Fisher was seriously, if not
fatally, injured at the lake frot
bathing beach yesterday after
noon at o'clock and is believed to
have fractured his backbone.
He was Immediately paralyzed from
the shoulders down, and there is grave
doubt that he will recover. 1t has
been impossible so far to tell whether
the paralysis is due to a hemorrhage
in the vicinity of the brain or to the
actual fracture of the spinal column
If it is the latter, death will surely
result, but If the paralysis is due to a
hemorrhage it is possible that paralysis
will disappear after the absorption of
the blood.
That Fisher was saved from drown
ing is due to the efforts of Robert
Stewart and Charles Patten, who pulled
him out of the water. He was rushed
to ST. Margaret's hospital. where he is
under the care of Drs. Fox and Oberlin.

SUIT FOR DIVORCE
w. F. Hale and Fred Emmel
Both Ask Court For
Bills Today.

William F. Hale. the former mayor OF
East Chicago, has brought an action
for a divorce against his wife, Eliza
beth Hale. The couple were married
in October. 1902. and were separated
in December. 1907. The principal allie
cation is that Mrs.f Hale has vio-
lent and ungovernable temper and that
incompatibility is responsible for their
matrimonial difficulties. The case was
filed by Attorney E. w. Wickey of East
Chicago.
Fred Emmel has brought an action
for a divorce against Bessie Emmel OF
Whiting. They were married in Feb
ruary. 1903, and were separated Sept

Crops Are Damaged.
Especial to THE TINES. }

Griffith. Ind, Aug. 23.-Never in the
history of the oldest inhabitant has a
summer storm been so disastrous as
the one which broke this morning over
this territory. Reports from st. John
and Dyer brought in by farmers this
morning show that the loss to farmers
in general from a point far south as
Crown Point will be quite heavy. The
corn is in particularly bad shape and
the wind was accompanied by almost
flood of rain. Several hhr>- buildings
were struck by lightning according to
late reports but the heavy rain ex-
tfnguished the flames before much dam
age was done.

u. S. Steel Co. Suffers,

Last nights storm was most dis
astrous to the United States steel cor
poration. At the Gary plant OF the
Illinois steel company the elements
created havoc with the various mills
with the result that the entire electri-
cal apparatus in the plant was put out
of commission.
This resulted in complete tie-ups in
the rail mill. open hearths. axle mills
and other department and caused more
than one-half of the 1000 workmen IN
the big plant to be idle for several
hours. The loss to the corporation
will amount to thousands of dollars.
REPORTS GROW WORSE.
Reports from the outlying districts
continue to come in at police head
quarters telling of more houses being
blown down during the storm. These
structures are new ones nearly COM
pleted and are located on North Polk
street, Eleventh and Jefferson, Twenty
third and Massachusetts and Twenty
fifth and Washington. Considerable
damage was also done at Of Angels
Catholic church and the University
club. The upper front windows at the
Gary state bank were unhinged during
the storm
