BARELEGGED DANGERS

Countess de Swirsky, Who
Appeared in Hammond,
Makes Scene in Hotel.

New York, May 2.-F. N. Whitney of
Syracuse, who used to be a Congre-
gational preacher in Oklahoma City
and Kansas City, admitted today~that
he was no longer the manager of
Countess Thamara De Swirsky, a
Russian dancer of the bare-Iegged
species. Withey went to hear his old
friend, the Rev. Newell Dwight Hills
preach yesterday morning, and decided
II was not right for dancer to dis
port herself before the public in the
garb of mid-African belle.
Withey conveyed his impression to
the countess. For reply she dashed
a glass of ice water into his face. AS
second manifestation of her artistic
temperament she yanked the table
cloth from the table and caused a
breakage of some dollars. AS a third
argument in favor of her unadorned
limbs, she swept haughtily to her
rooms. The countess insisted that she
was not seeking publicity by her out
break, and as proof of her sincerity
she furnished one of her photos, taken
la lace curtains, to the papers.

CITY CLERK

ABOUT WAGE

Harry G. Moose. city clerk of Gary.
wants to know whether his. job is
worth $1,000 a year or $4,000. If it is
only worth $1,000 a year he is ready 20

Lake Superior court in which the State

THOUSANDS POUR INTO
CITY TREASURY
Hammond People Drain
Pockets to Swell City
Treasury.

SHOWED under" is the way City
Treasurer William Wolter puts it when
speaking about his work these days.
The taxpaying period closed last Mon
day. and during this time all the force
could do was to take care OF the tax
payers as they lined up at the win
dow.
In the meantime stacks of letters
have accumulated containing checks
draft receipts. postoffice money orders,
in fact, anything that will pass for cur
rency to pay the taxes. Wherever one
looks on the big desk are piles of let
ters representing thousands OF dollars
in value. There is one from the Stand
ard Steel Car company with a check
of $1,000. another from the Hammond
Realty company a1r $4,000 and scores
containing paper of smaller denomina-
tion. During the busiest season the
entire force worked overtime every
day until o'clock in the evening, and
it will be many days before all tho
work which has accumulated will be
cleared away. In the meantime the
city treasurer is fervently hoping that
! the city council will take mercy on him
| and allow him an appropriation for
| extra clerk hire during the busy sea-
son.

| LINCOLN
SCHOOL To

The board OF educa ton today began
negotiations with Gostlin, Meyn & Co.
for the purchase of an entire block of
land on the north side for the site of a
new grade school building which is
expected to replace the present Lin
coin school building. which is about to
be condemned.
At first it was proposed TO pur-
chase enough property adjacent to the
present site of the Lincoln school build
ing to make a large play ground but
when 1t was seen that the cost of these
additional purchases would be greater
than to buy whole block from Cost
lin Meyn & Co. the latter plan was fa-
vored
The proposed new location is almost
exactly in the center of the plated
portion of the north side and is believed
to be a very desirable one. 1t is the
block bounded on the north BY Gostlin

on the south by the tracks of the Gary

A stampede is now oa Co the Good News Bay strike People or miners are fiocBing to the new strike from the Iditarod and up river country. An anxious to learn if it will turn out to be good news, or bad news.

 MT. waskey is due in Nome on any boat arriving from the Kuskokwim country, and before this article reaches our readers he may be in Nome. We trust such will be the case for if the strike is genuine there will he an outlet for the many who want to cast their lot in other districts, having worked out their luck as they call it in ITO Nome district.
 There is a large country over in the Good News Bay district. It is crossed by many streams that never have had pick or. shovel stuck into them. and there has been a little gold found over there from time to time: but never in better than a wage quantity
 The country is flat and the creeks thawed most of the time, so pumps or a bed rock drain will have to be run to work the mines. It is an open ques- tion whether it is a poor miners coun- try or not, and until further news or until the arrival of Frank waskey only experienced miners should ven- ture 10 make the trip.
 Those who venture should go well provided with food for no supply sta- tions are found over there. and 1t is not an easy country to get in and ou, of. at any season of the year.
