WILL PUT IN
NEW BILLS

Frank n. Gavit, the new republican
Sanator, was interviewed on the ques-
tfon of >the bills that he proposes to
Introduce or support in the legisla-
ture which will soon convene, and it
is apparent that the Whiting man is
to be active in promoting a lot of
advanced legislation
Senator Elect Gavit said: II shall,
of course, favor a bill providing for
the appointment of an additional Judge
of the superior court at Hammond At
the same time 1 propose to favor the
passage of a bill which will create
municipal courts in cities Of the
fourth class and give them a reason
able amount of civil jurisdiction. This
will relieve the upper courts and will
permit the trying OF a large number
of cases in the cities where they orig
mate
Il shall propose a bill which will
change the recording laws. At the
present time deed or mortgage may
be held for forty-five days before it
is recorded. This harils back to the
days when it took a great many days
to drive to the county seat. In cases
of fraud where deed is recorded be-
fore the real purchaser records it the
innocent party would he protected"
Takes Up big Problems.
Mr.. Gavit said that he did not know
whether or not he would he able to
get around to IT, but he declared he
would like to have a law passed that
Will compel the state 20 pay the costs
in criminal cases. This will enable
the states witness to set his fees even
If there is no conviction
The senator-elect stated that he
will study the question of establish
ing a sanitary district in Lake county,
and if he becomes convinced that it is
a good thing or If the commercial clubs
of the region favor it he will urge it's
passage.
Gavit said. THE Good Roads associ-

eral letters asking me to favor a bill

schools attended by Mr. Friedley was

unusual interest in Mr.. Friedley and
first suggested the idea that he ought

BUFFALO
CO. GETS The
CONTRACT

The board of public works at its
session this morning awarded the con-
tract for the new 15,000,0 0,000gallon ca
pacity water pump to the Snow Pump
works of Buffalo, N. Y, for S25, ,430.
This company was the second lowest
bidder, the Al1is- Chalmers Co. of Mil
waukee having been $3.50 lower. The
board considers the Snow pump the
better one of the two, and while it
costs more, it is also by ten tons
heavier than the cheaper one.
The question was raised in the city
council last night as to whether the
city of Hammond shall employ an ex-
pert construction engineer to supervise
the construction of the new pumping
station and the erection of the new
pump. The council did not take any
action. but the sentiment seemed to be
against such course.

SOFT, WHITE HANDS
May Be Obtained In One Night.

For preserving the hands as well
as for preventing redness, roughness,
and chapping, and imparting that vel
vety softness and whiteness much de-
sired by women Cuticura Soap, assist
ed by Cuticura Ointment, is believed
to be superior to all other skin soaps.
For those who work in corrosive
liquids, or at occupations which tend
to injure the hands, it is invaluable.
Treatment-Bathe and soak the
hands on retiring in a strong, hot,
creamy lather of Cuticura Soap Dry
and anoint freely with Cuticura Oint-
ment, and in severe cases spread the
Cuticura Ointment on thin pieces of
old linen or cotton. Wear during the
night old, loose gloves, or light ban
dage of old cotton or linen to protect
the clothing from stain. For red,
rough, and chapped hands. dry, fis-
sured, itching, feverish palms, and

ends, this treatment is most effective

IMPROVING MORALS IN CHINA
Influence Of Christian Teachings
Shown In the Changed Condi-
tions Found There.

"The public conscience is now be-
ing awakened upon this aspect of pub
lie morality. Last week l was in
vited to take part in meeting or
ganiZed by men who are not directly
connected with any Christian church,
but who are sincerely desirous of as
sisting in the reformation of their
Countrymen. Their purpose was to
start an antigambling league, and
with this in, mind they called public
meeting, which was attended by some
hundreds of Chinese scholars and
business men, and resolutions were
PASSED in approved public meeting
style, approving of a campaign against
the gambling vice. Members of the
Chinese Young Mems Christian asso-
ciation were asked to assist in the
meeting, and to demonstrate by the
means of games the possibility of
recreation without vice. Suitable ad-
dresses were given by prominent Chi
nese, and the chief organizer of the
movement is one of the government
education inspectors for the provinces
of Nangsu and Kiangsi. A Chinese
Roman Catholic teacher gave violin
solo, a Chinese secretary of the Young
Mems Christian association rendered
two coTnet solos, and a Protestant
missionary sang to the gathering. The
Whole meeting was conducted in so
orderly and orthodox fashion that it
vas scarcely possible to realize how
tremendous reformation in the
whole Chinese outlook upon public
life this meeting revealed. Twenty
years, even ten years, ago such a
meeting would not have been within
the realm of possibility. Today we
have class of public moralists arising
who have undoubtedly learned from
| Christianity in their midst the ideals
which they are desirous of impressing
upon their countrymen."
