. GATHERED IN

In the arrest of Henry Kurocrinski
yesterday afternoon on the charge of
grand larceny. the Hammond police
believe, they have laid their hands on
a desperate character
Kurocrinski, who travelled under sew
eral aliases, was arrested yesterday af-
ternoon by Captain Rimbach at the
E. G. Schreiber farm at Saxony He
is held for having stolen a typewriter
from the Schreiber potato plant last
fall..-and Chicago Poles appeared yes
terday complaining that they had been
robbed by Kurocrinski of $S5. They
did not know that he was in Ham
mond, but remembered that he came
to Chicago from Hammond and in that
way the Hammond police were able to
trace him.
The 41-caliber Colt revolver and a
two-edged butcher knife, found in
the suitcase belonging to Kurocrinsiki,
lead the police to believe he might
prove to be a desperate character The
remodeling of the butcher knife made
1t apparent that when completed it
would prove a perfect instrument for

The meeting was attended by about
forty members. The next session will

ASSESSORS
MAY GET
TOGETHER

According to Township Assessor B.
f. Fischer. it is likely that the assessors
of Lake. Porter and Laporte counties
will get together and agree the
assessment of farm lands.
r. 1T appears that the average assess
ment placed on the farm lands of the
county Is $31 per acre. Much of this
land is worth $3.50 to 5000 an acre and
it is the opinion of assessors that the
farmer ought to pay taxes on a higher
valuation.
The meeting held in Escher's office
yesterday was attended by the town :
ship assessors of the county. Courtland
C. Matson, the state tax commissioner
was present and talked on the necessity
OF increaing the valuation of certain
farm lands.
