SUSPECT NOT
MRS. GUINNESS
Canadian Woman, Watched
for Week, Does Not Fit
Description.

Laporte, Ind, Dec. 30.-What Chief
of Police Meinke considered a promis-
ing clue to the whereabouts of Mrs
Belle Guinness, whom he believes is
alive, failed Saturday when a dispatch
from Lethbridge, Alberta( advised the
authorities that the woman who had
been under surveillance did not answer
TO the photograph and description sent
from this city. For more than week
detectives had guarded the house where
the woman lived near the village of
Diamond City. Letters continue to be
received at the rate of about 100 day
from all parts of the country, insisting
that search for the woman be kept up
until 1T is fully established that she is
alive dead. H. w. Worden, who was
attorney for Ray Lamphere, who burn
ed the Guinness house. has promised
disclosures within a short time which.
he says, will absolutely prove the wo-
man alive.

Or. BICkNELL MUST
APPEAR IN COURT
Physician Defendant to
Charge of Running Auto
Without License.

DR.. George F. Bicknel1 of East Chi
cago will appear before Judge George
H. Lewis on Thursday to prove that he
was not trying to spirit away without
paying for 1t an automobile purchased
by him from Joe Skinner. a carpenter
contra ctor. and for which DR.. Bicknell
gave his note for 5000 not long ago.
The East Chicago physician was ar
rested in Laporte few days ago on
the technical charge of driving mo-
tor vehicle without a license. Accord
ing to Mr.. Skinner after the transfer
of the machine had been made to DIR.
Bickneli and his note deposited in bank,
the physician began to complain that
the machine was not as good as he had
believed before using it. There was a
little trouble over this. When Mr.. Skin
ner learned that the purchaser of his
car contemplated moving away from
this locality he tried to learn where
the doctor intended locating. There
seemed q disposition on the part OF
the doctor and his friends to evade g
disclosure of his destination, in the
opinion of Mr.. Skinner. The latter
therefore learned that DIR. Bicknefl's

gone to Laporte in the machine, hi.

the physician arrested.
Dr. Bicknell is annoyed, but not wor

Another row is at hand between May

In addition to the new rules some of

for them have secured a complete list

church. are profiting by their collec-
ton of rentals for owners.
To Probe Contracts.
Some of the aldermen have secured
legal advice as to how to throw Mayor
Knots out of the board of public
works. The move is also aimed to cur
tail the power of Bill Cain, who gets
most of the contracts from the city.
The protest by taxpayers against ex-
horbitant assessments in the lowlands
along the Little Calumet river, where
a $2s1.000 sewer assessment has been
slapped on the lots of poor foreigners

tracing gang in Gary. Battleaxe
Castleman is heading the movement
and several Ridge road taxpayers are
considering hiring him to stir up a
rumpus on the Ridge road sewer steal,
where $4,000 was stolen from the tax
payers. Instead OF paying $235, 900 for
their sewer the Ridge road people are
being soaked to the tune of 100000.

FASHIONS FOR BABIES
PRETTIER THAN EVER

The seasons fashions for children are
prettier than ever before. The baby's
bonnet can match the latest model in
tiny taffeta coats, with a hint of velvet
to make it look cosy. provided by the
edging of the bonnet's brim and by the
very narrow strings deemed smart for
the season.
Plated taffeta is used for the bonnet,
and in some instances there is a crown.
ruffied around with lace. of fine en-
broidered and eyelet-hole cambric. The
tiny taffeta coats are loose and quite
short affairs. some puckered at the back
beneath fiat bow placed at the waist
line. Others are belted by means of a
girdle knotted at one side.
II is considered fashionable to finish
the coat with scalloped hem and a
specially dainty lace or lawn collar and
cuffs are seen on many of the new mod
els. In nearly all cases the tiny borinets
match the coats. the materials being of
the same order and the trimmings fol-
lowing out the general color scheme.

OLD SAN MARCOS AGAIN
TO BE TARGET FOR
GUNS OF BATTLESHIPs

The wreck OF the battleshlp Texas,
officially known as the San Marcos. is
once more to he used as target for
the twelve-inch guns of pe hattleships.
The Texas was literally shot full OF
holes for practice a year ago last March,
and is lying in the shoals OF Tangier
Sound. Chesapeake Bay.
This time il is to be the skeleton mast
which will receive the fire of the heavy
guns. A mast is lsing constructed at
the Norfolk yard. and will soon be
placed on the Texas. One Of the battle
ships will then be assigned to proceed to
Tangier Sound and fire all sorts Of shells
at the mast in an effort to determine
the durability OF the mast under fire.
The skeleton mast. now quite familiar
us a feature OF American battleships. has
never been subjected to the fire of
twelve-inch guns. Naval officers are
confident that II will withstand this
test and prove almost indestructive.

DIETING HELPS RESTORE
INJURED DIGESTION

Many people have the mistaken idea
that dieting implies the eating of un-
palatable foods. This is not the case.
Foods that taste good are more apt
to digest well than unpalatable articles,
but the individual is also more liable
to be tempted into dietary excess by the
former than the latter. This is all the
truth there Is in the notion.
Dieting means simply that the indi-
vidual shall refrain from eating things
that are known to disagree with him
and shall limit the amount which he
eats. while judicious medication and rest
to the digestive organs are restoring
normal tone and activity.
Usually the necessity for dieting means
debility or abuse Of the digestive organs.
and dteting alone, while It will insure
measure of comfort, will not cure
the original trouble.
