the most delightful events that has
taken place in East Chicago this sea-
son was a musical given yesterday by

The music was for the most part by
professional talent. although there were
a number of selections by accom-
plished amateurs. Among the former
who participated in the program was
George Gindle of Hammond, violinist,
who handled his instrument with much
skill and played with exceedingly good
taste and much feeling. Mr.. Gindle' S
artistic merits are not unfamiliar to the
music-loving public of the Calumet re-
gion, he being frequent performer
at private affairs as well as in public.
Frank DeBriae as pianist, did his part
most ereditably as did also Emil Died
rick of Hammond. the latter handling
the cello in mastery fashion These
three artists composed a trio and play
ed several selections.
The rich baritone of Mr. Thomas
Lewis of Chicago was heard in several
| numbers. as was also the fine soprano
voice of Miss Anna Woodro of Chicago
Mrs. James. who acted as accompanist
also contributed piano selection In
| which her musical gifts were displayed
to advantage. Master Nat James did
himself proud in song.
The house was decorated in pink
| carnations and the color scheme
throughout was pink. A buffet lunch
con was served, the refreshments bear;
ing out the general color scheme. the
punch being pink. The programs were
printed on dainty pink paper.
The hostesses were beautifully gown
ed, Mrs. DeBriae. who received with
her daughters. wearing black satir
trimmed in old rose tapestry silk. Mrs
James white aeolian silk trimmed in

JOHN JOYCE DEAD
At EAST CHICAGO
Especial to THE TIMKs.)

East Chicago, Ind. April 20.--John
Joyce died yesterday at his home at
Railroad and Chicago. avenues after an
illness of varying severity. which had
covered a period of six weeks.
Although he had been sick for that
length of time, his death was not anti
cipated, and it came as a great shock to
his family.
On Sunday Mr.. Joyce was able to go
to Chicago, which he did in company
with Pat Dollard. Monday he got up
and went to work, but felt badly, and
after a few hours. he went home. He
felt pretty badly all that day, but was
much better on Tuesday On Wednes-
day he complained of being not so
we'll and at 10 o'clock it was noticed
that he was growing very rapidly
worse, as to alarm his family to the
extent that Mrs. Joyce decided to tele-
graph to their son. stephen. who is at
tending the Sacred Heart college at
WATERFOWL, Wis. to come home.
The sick man continued to sink rap
idly until las, when he breathed his
last
Mr.. Joyce was very we'll known
throughout Indiana Harbor and East
Chicago. and was very popular. He
was something of factor in politics
and a year ago last fall he ran for the
nomination of alderman in the republi-
can primaries, but was defeated by w
H. Odds. He was born at Parkersburg
