JUDGES
AS IT IS

When the circuit and superior courts
reopen in the first and second weeks
in September after the summer Naca-
tion. the judges will again find a bulky
docket Of cases which accumulated dur
ing the vacation months. The circuit
court and the superior court at Crown
Point open in the first week in Sep
tember and the two other superior
courts in Hammond open a week later.
In the superior courts at Hammond
alone since July 1st 11s cases have
been fled and considering that this Is
vacation time and that many of the
lawyers are on their summer outings
the number Is an indication of what
may be expected the coming year. In
another year two at this rate
healthy agitation may be expected for
another Judge or two In some quar-
ters this agitation Is being pushed even
now. but the general impression is that
the present number of judges sitting
continuously in four courts will be able
to take care of the business, by put
ting forth some extra efforts. The con-
gestion is not entirely due to the oyer,
work of the Judges. In many cases
the lawyers seeing continuances from
term to term are themselves to blame
judges can consistently be asked for.
the lawyers themselves will have to
arrange their business so as to be
ready to proceed with the trial of
case when it is set for trial.
The cases filed last week are as fol-
lows:

FOUGHT OFF OCTOPUS
DIVERS BRAVE BATTLE EIGHT
FIVE FEET UNDER WATER.
To His Goodness In Face of Terris!s
Danger Man Owes Escape--Sea
Monster Lost Life in the
Struggle.

Fighting furiously for Is minutes
against an octopus So feet below the
surface of the water, at the same time
talking over the telephone TO his at
tendants in scow on the surface Of
the water, giving them accounts OF the
remarkable battle as it progressed.
and finally, practically uninjured, but
in fainting condition, escaping, was
the remarkable experience of Walter
McRay, deep sea diver, at Alden
banks, near Anacortes.
McRay, the Seattle correspondent
OF the New York Sun writes. was en-
gagged by the Apex Fishing company
to examine one OF its fish traps on
Alden banks and on the third trip to
the bottom he ran afoul OF the fish
most dread by divers. He had fol
lowed the lead for some distance when
his foot was seized in the deadly grasp
of the giant octopus At the same time
the big FISH emitted large amount
of ink" turning the water in the vi
entity absolutely black, and making it
impossible for the diver to see his as
sailant
James Z. Hill, who was on the sur
face in charge of the assistants to Nc
Ray, stood with the telephone re-
ceiver at his ear. He heard a slight
exclamation from the man below, fol.
lowed by violent pull at the life line
as the diver was thrown off his feet
A few seconds later MeBay said over
the telephone
Now, keep cool Don't get excited.
A devil fish has got me-"
The rest of the battle, as told by Nc,
Ray and described by Hill, was as fol-
lows
when | heard those words, spoken
by MCKAY as calmly as though he
were greeting a friend on the street
my hair stood on end.
THE octopus, Immediately after
tripping McRay. had thrown two more
tentacles about he PROSTATE man. one
around his body, binding his left arm
tightly to his side, and the other be
tween his legs and reaching up his
back. The head Of the fish was on Nc
Rays chest
Almost helpless, yet with his right
arm free, he was able to draw his
knife from his belt and defend him
self Fighting at the great depth of
water and under heavy pressure the
strain soon told on the diver and sew
eral times he nearly collapsed,
AT no time, however, did he appear
to get excited or lose his head For the
entire As minutes which he struggled
he gave me frequent bulletins as to
how the fight was progressing
After Moray had successed in sub
DUNG the octopus he proceeded to
free himself from the wire mesh in
which he had become entangled
when he reached the top OF the
water the big fish still held a death
grip on his left arm, and it was not
until he was half out of the water that
it let go and fell back into the water,
from which he was dragged with d
pike pole. McRay was completely ex-
haasted when we brought him to the
top"
When examined by the crew of the
scow the octopus was found to have
II wounds in his body. He measured
nine feet in diameter.

Wireless Telegraph inside Cathedral
The Rev. Father Alfani, director of
the observatory at Florence, wondered
how wireless telegraph would work
If entirely inclosed in a building that
is. with no communication with the
outside air He has installed In the
cathedral at Florence an antenna
formed of three wires hung from the
dome and falling to about thirteen
feet from the pavement, where they
were attached to a pillar from which
the single wire joining the antenna to
the receivers departed The ground
ing also takes place inside the cathe-
dral, for it is produced by branch
leading to a lightning rod that rises
from a pit inside one OF the walls
With this ingenious apparatus Faith.
e. Alfani receives without difficulty
messages from the Eifiel Tower In
Fnris. from Nordeich and from Toulon.
This experiment demonstrates the
penetrating power of the Hertzian
waves, though it has been suggested
that the numerous lightning rods on
the cathedral intercept some of the
waves and conduct them to the earth

What Could the Poor Man Do7


An amusing story is going thu
rounds in Fleet street about an editor
who, to the surprise of those under
him, had Just accepted large batch
of contributions. The manuscripts
were not of any remarkable brilliance:
indeed, in the ordinary way they
would nearly all have been returned
TO the senders with the usual formula
announcing that the editor regretted
he was unable to make use OF them.
The explanation OF this apparent &C.
centricity on the part Of the editor
was that the other evening he took
the manuscripts home in his bag to
read at leisure. Between the office
and his station he stopped to buy a
bottle Of whisky, which he put in the
bag beside the manuscripts. In the
train the bag got an unnoticed bang
and when he arrived home he was hor-
rifed to lind the bottle broken and the
manuscripts smelling strongly of
whisky. Now, that editor has a great
reputation for dignity aad sobriety,
and--well, there you are! Pearson 3
