THE Good Old Times" draws a pic
ture of the Scottish miners unhappy
lot in the past: From about the year
1445 until It's the miners of Scotland
were bought and sold with the soil.
It Is stated in old chronicles that
bloodhounds were kept to trace them
II they left their employment and to
aid In bringing them back. BY statute
law miners were bound to work all
days in the year except Paschal and
Yule. and IL they did not work they
were to be whipped in the bodies for
the glory Of God and for the good Of
their masters Not until 1915 was the
first law passed in an attempt to better
this state Of things, but it was 1899 ere
the law gave the working miner Of
Scotland his complete freedom."-Lon.

LID TILTING ENDS
IN WOMAN'S ARREST

What is said by the West Hammond
vice crusaders to have been another
effort to tilt the cid" was nipped in
the bud last night. when Chief Okraj
arrested a woman who had been seen
with a man going into Moors place
The woman is said to he a resident Of
Hammond. She furnished a two hun
dred dollar bond and her trial Will
come up next Tuesday at two o'clock
The arrest was made in front of the
saloon of Henry Peters, where the
woman and her companion had gone to-
after Alderman c. ]. Wunschel. one Of
the most active vice foes had summon
ed the police At tho Peters place they
ordered lunch. and it was after she
emerged from the place that she was
placed under arrest on the charge Of
disorderly conduct. This charge is is
understood was however not placed
against her for her conduct with her
companion, but rather for her behavior
toward the policeman. In defence Of
her going TO the Moor place. it Is said
that she will say in court that she went
there to telephone, but those who claim
to know the facts say that Con Tally
and Ed Dunley tipped off Moor to get
the couple out of his place. and that
they then went to Peters place.

GARY SALOONMEN
ARE ANXIOUS

Several Gary saloonmen today obeyed
the mandate of the supreme court and
made preparations to pay in addi-
tional $500 city license fee.
The common council last winter. in
defiance of the legislature. reduced the
city fee from $500 TO 5000. Many sa-
loonmen paid the former fee and when
the city officials refused to accept the
latter amount others appealed to the
superior court and won out. An ap-
peal was then taken, the superior court
being overruled.
Anti-saloon league representatives. 1t
Is believed. may try to invalidate all
licenses Of saloonmen who paid only
5000.
