BLACK HAND WORK.
Head NURSE or HOSPITAL AT
GARY VICTIM OF FIVE MUIR
DERoUs ATTACKS.
.iudoe Landis Declares He Will Hear
Case Of Chicago Malta Member
in Spite Of Threats--con-
viction Sure.

Chicago, April 2.-Transferring its
reign of crime from Chicago, Where
the last object Of attack has been the
federal courts the BLACK Hand has
made five separate attempts to MUIR
der tae head nurse Of the hospital
IN Gary. Ind. ana have succeeded in
woundng him and driving MIN from
the city in fear for his life.
Matthew Cox, head nurse of the
mems department OF Mercy Hospital,
Gaty's only institution for the care OF
the sick, Is the latest victim OF a
'qElack Hand" outrage. Yesterday ne
fed 10 parts unknown. The night be-
fore he had been shot in the arm as
he was entering the hospital by an
alley entrance, although strong
guard of police surrounded the build
ing.
Search is Failure.
A dragnet, Immediately thrown
about the neighborhood, failed to cap
ture the wouldb murderer or to ind
the least elew that might lead to his
identity. Cox's nerve, already strain
ed to the breaking point, gave isWa y
completely, and he left Gary as soon
as he mad his wound dressed and MS
personal effects bundled together
The first attempt to kill Cox was
made on the evening of March "
Like each of the five, it was made ii
the immediate vicinity of the hos
pital, as he was returning from
Knights OF Columbus lodge meeting
Several shots were fred at him.
The other attacks followed quickl.
and the third was the most daring o
az Cox was called 70 the front doc
of tie hospital, presumably to hell
carry IN patient, and as he opened
the door was fired on.
Patients Live In Fear.
The Sisters of ST. Burlington, Wit
conduct the hospital, kept the frs
attacks secret, but finally asked polic'
protection, Both they and the pa
tients have lived in constant fea
since the attacks began.
Cox is believed to have made enc
mics by suing foreigners, known t
have large sumo of money on thef
person, who have been treated at tn
hospital and have refused to pa
their bills. Gary has many foreig
I. residents and among them are arg
number of Italians.

REV. JOHN HUBBARD
FROM PORTO RICO
Arrived Here On Tuesday Morning
To Visit With His Sister,
Mrs. Henry q. Leach.

Rev. John Hubbard of Porto Rico
greatly surprised his sister, Mrs. Henry
Leach by arriving unexpected last
Tuesday morning. Mr. Hubbard is a
minister in the Methodist church. Five
years ago went TO Porto Rico where he
had charge of the American church at
San Juan. Tor one year and since that he
has done missionary work among the
natives. Mr.. Hubbard had to return
last winter because of his wife's illness,
which terminated in death in the month
of March, leaving him a son one year
old. He is now pastor of church in
New Jersey and expects to attend Drew
Theological Seminary the next three
years. He came west for brief visit
with his father and sisters at Mason
City, Mrs. Leach in Audubon and a
brother in Dakota
In conversation with Mr. Hubbard he
talked in very interesting manner of
the climate, people, business. schools
and government of Porto Rico. OF the
climate he says it is surely warm
enough for anybody; that the pleasant
temperature of Tuesday morning would
be considered cold morning in the
winter down there; and the hot weather
of last week with a number of degrees
added makes up the summer time.
About 30 per cent of the people are
Spanish whites and their descendants.
Besides the Americans the others are
native Porto Ricans which are a mix.
ture of Spanish, Indians, and Negroes.
The President of the United States
appoints the governor and Cabinet,
which constitute an Executive Council,
which also acts as senate in legisla-
ton. The lower house is made up of
IS members elected by the people
While under Spanish control the only
religion tolerated was the Roman Catho-
lie; but under American control the
Evangelical churches have established
churches, schools and hospitals. There
are $4,000 COMMITMENTS and 1900
Sunday school attendants. In the pub.
lie schools there are l25,OO0 pupils.
Before going to the missionary field he
spent number of years in California
where he graduated from the Methodist
University at Los Angeles. Mr.. Hub
bard regrets that his work makes it
necessary to remain for only brief
visit among his friends in the west.

The Methodists Make improvements.

Commencing early in the spring
the trustees and the pastor of
the Methodist Episcopal church have
been making many improvements in
their church and parsonage property.
Besides acting as o member of the COM
mittees, Mr.. Freedline has been raising
the money by subscription to pay the
expenses. Though not yet completed
he has secured the larger part of the
necessary funds which will amount to
81, 600. At the church they have built
an addition for the choir adjoining the
choir loft which is a great convenience
for the church in many respects, The
lower room of this addition makes a
good ante-room for the parlors of the
church. The foundation of the church
was greatly improved in appearance by
veneering with Clipped hard brick
The painting of the building, which is
about finished, makes it look much like
new building. The parsonage has
received equal attention by adding
story to the kitchen, putting in fur
mace, bath room and closet; also new
hardwood floors, new roof, new porch,
paper and painting. The Audubon
parsonage is now one of the best in the
district and will be an attraction to
good ministers and their families to
make Audubon their home. When the
work is fully completed and paid for,
which will be in q short time the
Methodists of Audubon will have all
their church property in the best of
condition.

kind in the world The participants in
any dance, however respectable it may
seem on its face. are on par, in his
understanding, with the frequenters of
the cheap dance halls run in connection
with disreputable saloons. Let us again
quote him directly from the first page
of the Chicago Tribune of June IL:
The dances given by the high school
Greek letter sororities and fraternities
are greater source of danger to the
young girls who attend them than these
tough saloon dances. When girl at
tends sorority or other exclusive dance
she goes there entirely unaware of the
temptations and dangers that surround
her. Hence she falls prey to the evil
minded man who may happen to be
present. This type ofdance is therefore
more harmful than the dances given at
disreputable places, as at the latter an
innocent girl knows the character of
the men that frequent them and is con-
soquently on her guard"
He believes that a yawning abyss
turks at the foot of the waltz and the
two-step path. Now, grant that what
Mr.. Van Meter says about the dance be
true, what must be the influence of
those who are continually enticing
young boys and girls to congregate and
spend the night indulging in the giddy
sport. If there is hidden whisky jug
in the community a social dance will
bring it to the surface. If there is a
disreputable character in the vicinity
who lacks the audacity to present him
self at any other social gathering he
deems it his privilege to attend the
dance and be recognized as an equal
He deems it his right to embrace the
most innocent girls of the community
in the waltz, the twostep and the vul-
gar double swing. Mr.. Van Meters
address will probably not disturb the
devotees of the dance because people
of that class are usually too giddy to
take anything seriously, but those who
are continually Turing young people to
the dance are certainly irritating to a
good Christian community.

A Day In Kansas City.

The editor spent last Saturday in
Kansas City on matters of business.
Having tested both summer and winter
he is confirmed in his former opinion
that Kansas City is about the hottest as
well as the coolest place in the whole
country. The population of the city on
the MISSOURI side is 100000 and ON the
Kansas side nearly 100000 more. The
two are separated by the state line.
Many million dollars has been spent for
city parks in which free concerts are
given one evening week throughout
the summer by high priced band paid
by the city. Many miles of boulevards,
macadamized and oiled along the bluffs
of the river making automobiling a
great pleasure.
The farms in southern Iowa and
northern Missouri along the Great
Western are badly dried up and must
have rain soon to have any corn crop at
all. The wheat and oats are very light
much of the former already in shock.

Pretty Fast Running.

Seventy-five miles an hour is the
record made by Harroun in the great
Automobile Race at Indianapolis,
May 30. This terrific pace was
tolled off mile after mile and at
times was increased to over eighty
miles per hour. Ten cars finished
with only small margin of time
between them. A new worlds record
for $50 miles in 8 hours. 20minutes. and
20 seconds, was made by Harroun
whose name will go down in the
history Of automobiling as out-driving
and out-generaling the best drivers in
the world.

OUR CORRESPONDENT
SCORES THE DANCE
Here And There OF HamIin Quotes
And Emphasizes An Opinion
Concerning Its Evils.

A good and eminent man in the per-
son of II. H. Van Meter, superintendent
of evangelistic work for the Chicago
Christian Endeavor, comes heroically to
the aid of those who argue that the
dance is demoralizing evil. On June
IL Mr.. Van Meter delivered an address
before 200 girl residents of the Chicago
Refuge. We believe meditation upon
his remarks is socially wholesome. In
part he said: ~
Now there may be certain amount
of valuable exercise in dancing. If
there is, it is the only valuable feature
of present day dancing. More than 20
per cent of the girls residing at this
refuge were forced into life of shame
because of the so called pleasure of
dancing. 1t is an evil that should be
stamped out"
His hrmest conviction is that more
young girls have fallen by the wayside
through the medium of the dance than
for any other cause. 1t is his belief
that the social dance, the dance higher
up, as it were, is as bad as any other

Rain Brings Great Relief.

The unprecedented run of hot weat-
her in June was cooled off by rain Sun
day afternoon and Sunday night. The
rain seems to have been quite general
in spots throughout the state AT Alta
over three inches fell. At Fort Dodge
more than two inches and many other
places more than one inch. In this
county there was but little, yet the
cooling of the atmosphere brings relief
to the scorching vegetation as well as
to man and beast From personal OBJ
servation we think this section is still
greatly favored by the condition of the
crops. Yet we must have rain before
many days to insure moderate yield.

Henry Gust And wife.

Henry Gust and wife of Cameron
don't seem to get along very well. The
trouble seems to be booze and high
temper. Henry goes to Templeton, and
then she goes for him and probably with
good reason. And when she gets her
Dutch up" there is something doing.
Henry filed information against her
charging insanity, but the board didn't
agree with him when they heard the
evidence Tuesday afternoon. They
were given some good advice and sent
home to care for their twelve living
children the other three having passed
away.
