hibitions. The party first stopped on

The native was defeated by the HAM
mond fighter. Another stop was made
on the aHwaiian islands. Most of the
time was spent at Sidney, Australia
Here Jimmy had six fights. five of
which he won. Although in the sixth
the referee declared Clabby's opponent
the winner. many OF the spectators said
the decision should have been draw at
least. especially since Smith was twen-
ty pounds heavier than Clabby. This
fight was fought during one of the
hardest rain storms within the memory
of the natives.

ADDS TO
WOES OF THE
YOUNG CITY

The secret is out. For several long
months Gary has listened to the din of
% automatic electric pianos. No one
will ever know the suffering that the
struggling young city has gone
through.
Gary never tells the world of lis
troubles IT suffers on uncomplainingly
In fact the truth that there are 23
electric pianos In Gary would never
have been known to the people ,of the
community at large were it not for the
fact that two actions to replevin the EN-
were begun in the Lake Superior court
this morning.
Jacob c. Rough, doing business as
the Automatic Electric Piano Co., has
brought an action against KarmeI
Komornicki and ]. Glen Harris of the
law firm OF Harris & Bretsch in which
suit is brought for the possession of
IA pianos. valued at "a ,0oo and for ST.
900 damages. This action was brought
by the firm of Sheehan and Lyddick of
Gary
A few minutes later II. F. McCracken
OF the Arm OF McCracken, Freer &
Barlet of Gary came in and, represent
ing the J. P. Seeburg Piano Co., filed
suits against John Prascsak and eight
other defendants. These suits are to
rep1evfn nine other pianos.
In the meantime II. +. McCracken
also started a criminal action in the
city court in Gary and two actions OF
a similar nature in the Lake Superior
court at Hammond IN which Kornel
Komorinicki is charged with a number
of offen~es.
In the city court he was charged with
embezzlement and in the Lake Superior
court he was charged with forgery and
uttering and publishing a forgery
McCracken Is the authority for the
statement that Komorinicki sold the
pianos to his any customers by leading
them to believe that they were being
placed in their places of business a
commission basis.

GARY WOMAN RENTED
BOX IN HAMMOND P. 0.

One of the most sensational divorce
cases which have recently been filed in
the Lake superior court is one in which
Albert Goddard has begun action
against Beatrice Goddard. The COM
plant was filed by Harris, Bretsch &
Brissey Of Gary.
The case involves the alleged infideli-
ty of a wife, and the passionate wooing
OF her affinity under the handicap of
the great distance which separated
them
The complaint relates that Albert
Goddard and Beatrice Goddard were
married in Little Falls. n. Y. May "a.
1t is alleged in the complaint that
Beatrice Goddard kept company and
correspondent with Steve Quinn. who
lived in Kansas. 1t is charged that in
1910 after the plaintiff had furnished
her with the money with which to GO
from Gary to Europe that Mrs. God
dard corresponded with Quinn. and fol-
lowing her return to New York went
to Chicago to meet Quinn instead of
going to Gary to see her husband. who
had provided her with the funds with
which to take the trip.
Promises To BE Good.
Finally when Mrs. Goddards alleged
relations with Quinn became known to
her husband and he started proceedings
to tie up her money and secure a di-
vorce, it is alleged that she confessed
her wrong doing to her husband and
promised that he would never renew
her relations with Quinn. Having made
this promise Goddard dropped the pro-
ceedings against his wife
But Mrs. Goddard's remorse was only
temporary, according to the complaint,
and she rented a box in the Hammond
postoffice which she held under the
name of Miss Beatrice Goddard so
that she might carry on the correspond
ence with her alleged paramount.
In the complaint are a number of
passionate love letters which are al
legged to have been written by Quinn
to Mrs. Goddard, and 1t is related that
there are others that OF such a char
acter that it Is inadvisable to make
them a matter of court record
1t is further alleged that the defend
ant and Quinn are to be married at
some time in the near future, accord
ing to a letter which Mrs. Goddard is
alleged to have written to her sister.
1t is related that the plaintiff has been
that he works as a laborer for 500 a
month.
The couple are charged with having
made numerous trips to Chicago, where
clandestine meetings were held An
absolute divorce is asked for by the
plaintiff

Numerous inquiries have been re-
ceived recently by the publisher OF
the U nj o h relating to the proposed
trunk line roads under the Elwell law.
One Lesueur county inquirer wants
to know if all the state road money is
to be applied on the trunk roads. The
Union will have something to say
on that subject later. In the mean
time we can assure our southern Min
nesota friends that the state road
fund, no matter whether that fund
amounts to 100000 or 81, 900 in
any one year, will be apportioned
equitably among all the counties OF
the state. In other words every coun-
ty will be accorded square deal.

Will Aid Farmers to Clear Land.

The Wisconsin legislature recently
passed law which promises to prove
OF great benefit to-. farmers of that
state. The law provides that Is
farmers may band together and make
application to the county board ask
ing that special Improvement bonds
be issued to defray expense of clear
ing their lands. A committee of ex-
perts will then look over the land and
the cost will be estimated. The bonds
issued must not exceed the cost of
clearing. The bonds may run from
five to 20 years and are to be lien
upon the particular pieces of land
benefited. The liens shall not, how
ever, exceed S25 an acre. This will
mean the immediate clearing of
thousands of acres of land that would
otherwise remain idle for years to
come.
