CITY CLERK
OTTO DUELKE
SICK AbEO

City Clerk Otto Duelke is confined
to his bed, and his friends fear that
it will be some time before he will be
able to resume his work in the city
hall.
Mr.. Duelke seemingly suffers from a
general breakdown in his health,
brought on by his confining work in
the city hall, and hurried by the bad
air that the inmates of the old city
hall building must breathe.
Unless Mr. Duelke can recuperate in
short time 1t will be necessary that
an assistant, takes his place in the
city hall, as the work there is con-
stantIy piling and will grow now that
the board of public works is beginning
to order the spring improvements. Mr..
Duelke's friends hope that he will have
a speedy recovery.

EARNING HIS SALARY
John Leary Points Out That
Some Electric Wiring
Is Poorly Done.
ISSUES A GRAVE WARNING
Says Some People Will Find Their

ISSUES A GRAVE WARMING

Work by incompetent electricians
and desire on the part of some of
the property owners to save a little
money is, according to John Leary, city
electrician. responsible for considera-
Bile poor work of electric wiring in
Hammond. Some of the newer busi-
ness places and residences are quite
satisfactory, but some of the older
buildings are in constant danger from
fire owing to crossed wires. In some
cases where the city electrician point
ed out the defects the faults were i'm
mediately remedied, but other owners
of buildings are inclined to be stubborn
and take occasion to assail the off,
cial for doing his duty
The owners of buildings who refuse
to insulate their wires properly are not
only endangering their proeprty, but
their wiring is a real menace to ad-
joining places IN case of fires, and 1t
is for the protection of the adjoining
property owners that we must insist
on the enforcement of the city or
dinance," said Mr. Leary this morning.

SPIRITED TILTS
HEARD AT TRIAL

In the legal battle between the
attorneys in the Mcbride case at
Crown Point yesterday, in order TO
gain a point of vantage in some of
the objections that were raised, and
in the cross examination of wit
nesses. Special Judge John B. Peter
son had to in several cases warn
those in the controversy to keep
politics out of the trial
Strive as hard as they could to
box themselves up, the bitter party
feelings, petty jealousies and hatred
of the principals arose again and
again and Judge Peterson had to
caution the attorneys, especially
those on the defense that they must
respect his instructions and keep
politics out OF the trial.
Witnesses were accused of every
thing from robbing q grave to horse
stealing and one of the ambitions
of the defense was to find out how
many times a witness had been ar
rested during his past lift.
Judge Peterson was unusually
fair in making his rulings to OBJ
jections. and each side was equally
favored

MEMS CLUB PLANS
INTERESTING SESSION
o. P. Kinsey of Valparaiso
Will Address Organiza-
tion Tonight.

One of the most Interesting sessions
of the Mems club that has been held
this year is scheduled for this evening
when Professor o. P. Kinsey of VAL
paraiso university will address that
lem of Living"
The problem of the cost of living
is being taken up all over the country,
and Hammond is fortunate in that the
Mems club has been able to secure the
greatest authority in the world on this
question.
Mr.. Kinsey has made Valparaiso uni
versity the most unique institution in
the world for the reason that he has
been able to provide good board for
his thousands of students for from
$3.50 to 81 per week. Room rent is
rs cents to 81 a week.
That is bringing the cost of living
down to a remarkably low figure, and
Prof. Kinsey viii tell his hearers to-
night how he has been able to do it.
The usual refreshments will be served
and the meeting is expected to be an
exceedingly interesting one.
Only recently a Chicago newspaper
devoted over half page of space to
Valparaiso university, in which this
question of the cost of living was TAX
en- up. 1t is an indication that the
public realizes that whatever Prof
Kinsey may have to say about the cost
of living will not be theories, but
plans which are being worked out ev-
cry day in the year.

ORDERS 5000
TONS OF RAILS

The Monon railroad bought 5000 tons
of open hearth rails last week to be
rolled at the Gary and South Works
plant of the Illinois Steel company, and
there were other small orders. The
Chicago rail mills are now booked well
through the third quarter, and the or
dinary run of second orders and pick
ups from now on will keep the mills
busy through 1910. In former years
the western roads were obliged to go
to eastern mills with considerable
part of their business, but the compile
ton of the Gary mill enables them to
save freight and the Chicago mills have
been able to intercept practically all
of the rail orders from western lines.
besides giving the roads the choice of
open hearth or Bessemer rails. The
eastern mills represented in Chicago
have been able to take only a small
portion of the business, while on the
other hand the Gary plant has attracted
a considerable tonnage of the business
placed by eastern lines The demand
for track supplies becomes more ur-
gent as spring approaches.
