Shelter for Foot Soldiers.

In military maneuvers the infantry must do more or less work under GOV. CT, and it Is frequently essential for the soldier to work his way along the surface of the ground by creeping or crawling. In order to facilitate this a genius of Stuttgart has invented de vice. consisting of wheels, rollers or runners, attached to frame or to tent poles, knapsacks or other suitable parts of the equipment. The utility of this invention remains to be proved by practical experience, but there can be no question of its novelty and ori. ginality.

Indian Landmarks In ohIo Woods.


 In the vicinity of Defiance, O., can be found trees that many would think freaks of nature. Such they are, but they are created by the hand of man
 According to the stories of some of the old timers, these trees are much older than the present generation has any idea of. and at one time served as Indian guide posts. It Is said that in the early days, when the Maumee valley was one vast woods, the In dians bent these saplings to indicate certain paths. The trees, because of their deformity, grew slowly, and al. though they are many years old, never attained the size of their brethren in the forests. Similar trees exist near Fort Wayne.

Not Enough Brooms

The careful housewife of Pres colt had better begin laying in a surplus of brOoms for 1910. The facts are, according to a Main Streev groceryman, there arn't going to be enough brooms to go around this year. He said to a reporter for The News this morning:
 The statistics sharks up at Washington have figu red it out that there will be just about one broom for every housewife in the United States this year. You see the broom corn crop was very short this year and as the manufacturers have as a rule only short stock to fall back on and it is impossible to produce enough sweeperS to go around this year; at least that seems to be the outlook at present.
 "I look for another advance in the price of brooms soon," he said.

HENS THAT POISONED FISH
Ez Cobb Tells About Pets That Had Brains and Knew How to
 Use Them.

"Pshaw!" said Ez Cobb, Barkers- vile poultry fancier. when he read about hen owned by H. C.. Spaulding of Colebrook, digging bait for her owner when he had the fishing fever. That's nothing. I've got some Rhode Islands reds that poisoned fish to death because the fish stole worms from 'em."
 How did they do tha." demanded an incredulous listener
 T have deep spring in an open lot" replied Ez. The fish kept in it got so wise that they dug their own worms. The earth at the edges of the spring had lots of worms, and whenever a fish saw one crawling out of the ground he would jump out of the water and grab it. My Rhode Island reds. in scratching about the spring saw what the fish were doing.
 Now, what do you think those mur- derous hens did? They went to my potato patch. where I'd put Paris green. They got their bills full of poison. went back to the spring and washed their bills free of the Paris green. l tried hard to get the poison out of the spring, but was too late. It dissolved. The next morning all the fish were dead
 Now. the hens have the worms. and we don't dare drink from the spring, And some people say that chickens haven't any brains"

The comparatively unknown and al, together unhonored relative of the bob white quail is found in the noun tains and foothills of western Texas, southern New Mexico and Arizona. As a game bird Mearns quail may not be the equal of bob white in all re- spects. This can hardly be deter mined until he has been tried under similar conditions in the east How ever. it is probable that he would not encroach upon bob's favorite haunts among the wheat, corn and stubble, but would prove an addition by filling in the out-ot-the,way covers along the mountain sides and among the foot hills.-Recreation.

EMPIRE MANAGEMENT
LOOKING TO FUTURE

Manager Scully of the Empire
Theatcr is looking far into the flu
ture for entertainers for his patrons,
and in February he will present one
of the most notable troupes of en-
tertalners now playing to Western
audiences-"The Five Columbians"
regarded as the most beautiful and
refined act in vaudeville.
These five people present many
musical fantasies, all as dainty as
bits of Dresden. Their costumes are
beautiful. The troupe Is composed
of Caro- Miller and family. Marilyn
Miller, a dainty little dancer and
singer, has caused critics to ask
whether, us an adult, she will be II
Patti or an Adelina Genee. The Co
lumbians present a fantastic novelty,
pocket edition of de luxe eXtrava-
ganZa. She is toe dancer, and for
poise, grace and pure beauty Is as
near periestlon as human limitations
will permit. This little dancer as
pires to he second Genee, and 1t Is
believed she will achieve all she
hopes for. This company will be
one OF the most ambitious bookings
Mr.. Scully has arranged for In the
next two months.
Meanwhile he has the Gladstone
Sisters, and they are making the
real big hit of the town. Their ac-
robatlc dance is just now the rage,
and adult and young patrons alike
find them entertainers of the first
rank.
Tomorrow evening there will be
an entire change of bill at the EN-
pire.

COUNCIL
WILL NAME
SUCCESSOR

The fact became known today that
Attorney Joseph G.. Ibach will resign
his membership on the board of edu-
cation to take up his duties as appel
late Judge. the office to which he was
recently elccted, on Jan. 1st
This raises the question to whom
his successor will be. The vacancy
will be filled by the Hammond city
council. On the last occasion when
the council filled the vacancy Fred
Krost was one OF the candidates.
It is believed that his friends will
now urge his selection for this po-
sition. Fred Krost has been a candi-
date for membership on the board on
several occasions, but has always been
defeated
1t is thought that he will land the
job this time, however. The board is
about to decide a number of matters
of great Importance to the city, and
membership on the school board has
come to be regarded as a very import
ant position

GETS
SENTENCED
FOR LIFE

Twenty-seven hours from the begin
ming of a murder trial to the time the
prisoner hears the verdict of guilty
from the lips of the foreman of the jury
is a record that has the trial of Dr.
Crippen beaten to a FRAGILE
Ivan Beliff was found guilty of the
murder of Simeon Nesteroff. a Gary
baker who had his head nearly chopped
off by three conspirators who were af-
ter his money, and was sentenced to
life Imprisonment.
While Beliff did not actually partici-
pate in the killing he was present when
it took place and shared in the money
that was taken from the dead bakers
body.
The case was shorn of technicalities
and was rushed to completion in a
manner that gave rne people in the
court room a new confidence in the
efficacy of American courts.
Attorney Franklin T. Fetterer, for
the defense asked for a new trial after
the jury had returned its verdict and
Judge Virgil S. Reiter will rule on his
motion in a few days.
In the meantime the prisoner has
been taken to Crown Point where he
will be confined in Jail his fate is finally
decided. If the motion for a new trial
is over ruled he will go to Michigan
City for the rets of his life.

SCHOOL
CONOEM MINED


Indianapolis, Ind, Nov 23=Dr G. d.
Brannon, health officer of Crown Point
says n a report to the state board of
Eagle school house No. 8, Eagle Creek
Lake county. Said condemnation was
based upon the following facts:
said school house has no founda-
tion. Stands on logs. The weather.
boarding is dilapidated and shabby, and
the windows are small. wrongly placed
and give insufficient light. The sills,
including window and door sills, are
rotten. The house is too small to ac-
commodate the pupils. It is heated by
stoves and is not in fit condition for the
housing of children. The outhouses
are abominable, the water supply is
questionable and the walks around the
schoolhouse are bad, indeed
These reasons seem quite sufficient
for the condemnation of a school house
and we believe the courts will sustain
DR. Brannon in his efforts to abolish
conditions which may easily generate,
promote and transmit disease. The
question which comes to mind in this
connection is: Why do parents treat
their children so abominably? They
not only permit them to go to school
in a building as here described, but
even force them TO go. Why do not
parents where such school houses
exist. and there are many in the state
of Indiana rise and demand Of their
public officers that their children be
given every condition necessary for
health and for progress in their
studies?

BOARD HAS
MEETING OF
MUCH INTEREST

The members of the board of edu
cation met last evening for the tran
saction of the business of the school
city. Charles Friedrichs appeared and
registered an -ebjeetion to the sale of
the school property for the purpose of
building a manual training high school.
He stated that he would rather see
the school property leased for a term
of years than to have 1t sold outright.
When he was asked what the board
would do to raise the 100000 neces-
sary for the construction of the $3.50
600 manual training high school, Fried
richs only reply was that he thought
only part of the building should be
constructed now.
This plan, however, did not meet
with the approval of the members of
the board, for thereason that the en-
tire building is needed at the present
time to take care of the congestion in
the schools.
A number of agents for various ap-
pliances which are used in school
buildings appeared before the board
and explained the advantages of their
offerings.

ACCIDENT
MAY RESULT
Fatally
ESPECIAL to THE TIMES)


Indiana Harbor, Nov. 2a.-John Smith.
1851 Pennsylvania avenue, charging
operator at the Inland Steel company's
plant, may lose his life as the result of
accident that occurred Monday
morning.
It was about Z o'clock that the acci-
dent occurred.ss The operator had gone
up to oil his car which runs on a high
line and is used in charging the furn-
aces, q few minutes iater his helper
came along. Smith was leaning over
the side of the car when suddenly with
out warning, the helper who did not
know Smith was on the car started the
car down the incline. Before Smith
could save himself. the car had carried
him to a point where the ceiling is
only a few inches from the top of the
low car, and under this Smith was
squeezed. The car stuck here and for
the first time the helper became aware
that his boss was aboard.
1t was some minutes before Smith,
his body, was extricated, and wnen ne
was it was thought for time that he
could not live more than few minutes.
His body was frightfully bruised and
1t is feared that he has sustained in
ternal injuries which may yet result in
his death.
The injured man was taken to ST.
Margaret's hospital, where the outcome
of his hurts is anxiously awaited.

Gun Carrying Expensive.

The luxury of carrying a gun, like
other luXuries of life, is going up in
price, according to Judge Barnett's rul-
ing in the city court this morning.
Peter Cookfsh, who was formerly en-
ployed in the Standard Steel Car works,
returned there from Minneapolis and
getting drunk, he hourished his gun in
one of the East Hammond saloons. He
was fined $50 and costs. In a number
of other cases the defendants were let
off with a lighter fine, but Judge Bar
nett has decided that the time has come
when more drastic action must be ta
ken.
