No Mass Is Said at East Chi
cago Church For First
Time in Years.
Especial 10 THE TINES

East Chicago. Ind. Jan. 23-For
the first time within the memory of
some of the oldest parishioners of St
Mary's church, there was no mass said
yesterday. Members of the church
gathered there as usual, but were
obliged to go away without attending
services
Their disappointment WAS due to the
serious Illness of Father George Lauer,
who on Saturday was suddenly strick-
en- with a very severe attack of grip
that threatens pneumonia. Father
Lauer had no time to get substitute
priest to say mass in his stead, so sud-
denly was he taken. The priests con-
dition. while it is not extremely criti-
CAL has occasioned much anxiety.
Should his ailment develop into pneu-
monia, as it is greatly feared it may,
1t would go hard with him owing to
the fact that the patient is inclined to
competence.

was noted This morning at an hour
when 1t should be at about the lowest,
it ranged around 102 and 1913 and the
patient seemed to have taken a turn
for the worse.
Last winter Father I1auer suffered a
similar attack, but this proved less Sc

AT STATE CAPITAL,

indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 23.-The leg
isiature is going to have hard time
to satisfy everybody. when it comes to
making legislative apportionment and
a congressional apportionment. 1t is
certain that this subject will come be-
fore the general assembly at this ses-
sion, although there are some demo-
Gratis of the opinion that since their
party won at the last election and now
have a majority of the members in the
two houses of the Legislature and that
they elected twelve out of thirteen
members of congress from this state
the democrats would be just as we'll or

sional districts stand unchanged. But
lit is more than likely that the leaders
of the party will insist on a number
of changes so as to make sure of sue
cess in the future, and if this turns out
to be the case apportionment bills will
be presented.
One of the matters which the con-
gressional and legislative aportionment
committees of the house and the senate
will be called on to consider is the de-
mand of the democrats of Laporte
county that that county be taken out
of the tenth congressional district and
added to the thirteenth. as formerly.
1t is the contention of the democrats

that 1t was Joined at the same time to
Porter county to insure the election of
republican joint representative. La
porte county is close politically, but is
regarded as nominally republican by

Democratic leaders believe that if
Laporte county was taken out of the
tenth district and put back into the
thirteenth it would strengthen the thir-
teenth district from a democratic
standpoint. Laporte county was the
only county in the tenth district which

OUT OF TENTH DISTRICT

ter counties. This situation has sent
Gus II. Greiger. republican. to the house
OF representatives from this district for
the last three sess ions, although the
democrats came near defeating him last
fail.
There is talk that if Laporte county
should be made a part of the thirteenth
district John B. Faulkner, editor of the
Michigan City Dispatch and the pres
ent democratic representative from
Laporte county, may become a candi-
date for congress. This talk is per-
sistent, although Mr. Faulkner asserts
positively that he is not considering
the matter.
In connection with tho situation
which confronts the congressional APP
portionment committees relative to the
two districts several persons are being
mentioned as possible candidates for
the democratic nomination for congress
in the thirteenth district in 1912.
among them Senator Robert E. Proc
tor of Elkhart, w. A. McInerney of
South Bend, and Adam E. Wise of
Plymouth.
Senator Proctor's name is also being
nomination for lieutenant governor in
1912. Wise has also been mentioned
for this nomination, but he has pune
tured his boom with the positive an
nouncement that under no circums tanc-
es will he be a candidate for lieutenant
governor Proctor declares that he is
for Wise for congress. Some of Wises
friends say he would rather go to con-
gress, and he is likely to get into the
race in case Congressman Henry Barn
hart gets into the race for governor.
Mr. Barnhart is not a candidate, but he
is being urged by northern Indiana
democrats the logical man for the
place.
Many of the leaders believe that John
Z. Lambs championship of Congress
man Boehne of Evansville, and Thomas
Taggarts support of Samuel L. Rails
ton of Lebanon, for the democratic
nomination for governor will provoke
row that will make it impossible for
either of the two men to win. and it
will be necessary to nominate a COM
promise man. Barnhart is being dis
cussed in this way.
Another name that the democrats
will probably have to consider when
it comes to nominating a candidate for
Stotsenburg OF New Albany, the pres
ent democratic floor leader in the up
per house of the legislature. Senator
Stotsenburg may get into the race,
some of his friends say He came near
to being dragged into the race for the
United States senatorship from this
state prior to Senator Shivelys cleo
tion two years ago, but he refused and
supported Shively. and he has been
mentioned repeatedly as a possible can
didate for governor.

by Rev. NJ. c. Wright. was worthy OF
much praise. During the course of his
sermon, there was not a dry eve in the
church. Rev. Webster himself had all
he could do to keep from breaking
down. SO much was he effected by the
early demise of the promising young
man. Music was furnished by Mes

was truly beautiful.
