STEALS COLLECTION
BOX IN CHURCH
Especial to THE TIMES. J

whiting. Ind. April S--The tall,
smooth-f face man who wore a dark
overcoat and cap must have been
hard up. In fact any man who would
rob the collection box in a church is
either hard up or is not particular
about his hereafter.
Yesterday man who answers the
above description entered st. Johns
Slavish church in Whiting and robbie l
the collection box of the widows
mite" and everything else in sight. 1t
amounted according to Rev. Father
Benedict Rojcany to about $40.
The reason Father Benedict has such
a good description of the culprit az
that he saw the cam coming out 2of
the church several hours before the
theft was discovered.
The same man went to Father John
Berg of the Sacred Heart church and
asked for position as janitor. Father
John told .him that he did not have
anything for him.
He then went to Father Benedict
with the same success. It is believes
that 1t was then that the temptation
to rob the collection box became ir :
ressistible.

ALL ROADS TO Be
DOUBLE TRACKED
Railroad Story Attracts At
tention in Giles of the
Calumet Region.

1t will be a matter of interest to the
people of the Calumet region. through
which every eastern trunk line out OF
Chicago runs. to know that all of them
are being double tracked.
A Chicago paper the following
which is correct except in its reference
to the Nfckle Plate railroad. This road
too. is making arrangements to double
track to the east The double track
culverts are IN and all that remains to
be done is to grade the road and lay
the rails.
Announcement was made yesterday
by the Baltimore & Ohio management,
that it had awarded a contract for
double tracking part of its Chicago di-
vision 10 the Lorimer & Gallagher Con
struction Comp1ny This is Senator
Lorimer's concern. The same company
has done a great deal of grading 70,
different roads.
This draws attention to the rush that
is on among the big railroads to dou-
BILE track their lines. East of Chicago
the Grand Trunk, all the New York
Central lines ad the Pennsylvania are
double tracked. and the Erie is push
| ing work on its second pair of rails.
1t is figured that the latter line vii
be double track clear through 10 chi
cago within year If the Baltimore s
Ohio finishes a second track this will
leave one trunk line east from Chi
cago single track. the Nickel Plate.

WOMEN
ARE TRIED
FOR R|0T|NG

The trial of the sixteen West Ham
monh property owners who were ar
rested two weeks ago on the charge of
disorderly conduct in connection with
the riot on One Hundred and Fifty
fifth place. was opened this afternoon
before Judge Green. the case of Joseph
Kuziel being the first the docket.
Ten of the defendants are women, they
having followed Miss Virginia Brooks
in attempting to stop the paving work.
Miss Brooks was fined a dollar and
costs and appealed her case. Yester-
day it was said that some of the de-
PENDANTS were ready to plead guilty
while others were ready to appeal the
case in the event the judgment went
against them in the lower four.
Following the riot Miss Brooks pro-
cured a temporary restraining order,
but Judge William Fenimore Cooper in
the Superior Court yesterday dismissed
the injunction issued by him last Sat
urday against the village of West
Hammond. enjoining the paving of One
Hundred and Fifty fifth place. He held
that the County Court and not the
Superior Court had jurisdiction Miss
Brooks alleged that inferior material
was being used Affidavits OF denial
were filed by the contractors.

REVENUE
TRANSFERS
ARE MADE
Hammond and Fort Wayne
Are Now the Only Reve-

Indiana; South Bend Of
flee Abandoned.

The information was received in
South Bend yesterday that the revenue
office there, which has been in charge
of Mrs. Carrie Parsons. formerly of
Hammond. Is to be abandoned and that
Mrs. Parsons is to be transferred to
Hammond.
This means that in northern Indiana
there are to be but two revenue offices;
one at Hammond and the other at Fort
Wayne. The Importance of this move
is more sentimental than material.
1t will mean the, employment of one
or two extra persons in the revenue
service in Hammond. and there will
be more visitors to the city on revenue
matters than there has been before.
Some time ago the office at South
Bend was abandoned for the reason

esterday afternoon. and Sulht was Civ
en- a fine of $25 and costs amounting
to $3.50 which he was unable TO pay
and was taken to Crown Point to lay
out his fine
Judge Prest said this morning he
fined Sulht as much the law gave
him power but would, have liked to
have made it a great deal more, for
he thought Sulht deserved a larger fine
than he received. Mrs. Sulht complain
ed that he. would not work and her
husband brutality mistreated her and
that she was not given any money for
living expenses.
