NEW KIND OF BALL.

John Orris, employed at the Inter-
state, East Chicago, and living at De-
metri Sczycyzli's saloon in Railroad
avenue. was arrested last night for
trying little game of indoor baseball,
using beer bottles for bats and balls.
The incident occurred in the saloon
of John Mondik, in Chicago avenue
across from the postoffice. Orris had
ordered enough stun to start saloon
himself on a small scale and this he
had blithely consumed. When 1t came
to paying for 1T, however. it was an
other matter. He thought the drinks
were on the house and when told the
house did not propose to stand for that.
he began to throw bottles and glasses.
His trial will come up tomorrow.

nue. near Parish engaged In conversa-
ton. Two country men. whose identi-
ty the three claim not to be aware of,
passed, and one of them made a slight
ing remark which Mackrish took to be
personal to himself. The men passed
on and Mackrish started to follow
them. calling to his companions to
'scome on" They made a move in the
direction of Mackrish, and the man
who was being followed. evidently
thinking he was going to get the
worst of it, pulled revolver and fired.
Mackrish sank to the sidewalk. with
his hand to his breast covering the
place where the bullet entered. the two
who had started the trouble took to
their heels, ecaping in the darkness
Some one ran into the saloon at 3491
Michigan avenue and told the bar
tender that man had been shot
Those inside went to the street and a
call for the police was sent in. Ser
geant Hughes was on the desk at the
time and he and officer Ed Shields in
the auto patrol. sped to the scene.
The man was lying where he fell
when they arrived and it seemed ap-
parent that he was dead. The officers
picked up the body and placed it in the
patrol and took it to the office Of DIR.

nounced the man dead. His remains
were thereupon conveyed to the un-
dertaking establishment of Burns and
McGuan.
The police had no difficulty in ar
resting the three who were with Mack
IRISH when the shooting occurred, de-
pending on them for information which
would lead to the arrest of the man
who did the shooting. Either the three
do not know. or do not wish to inform
on the guilty one and his companion

Mackrish formerly resided. He is no

Mackrish was well known to the pc

This hospital is quite expense to
the city, but 1t would cost more to keep
watch of the cases, were they being
cared for in their own homes. 1t does
not pay to take chances with small
pox and with the patients quarantined
in their own homes. it would be neces-
sary to keep an officer stationed at
each of the houses, in order that we
would make sure the quarantine was
being observed. The hospital scheme
is therefore the safest and best way

while do not think it is unreasonable
for councilmen to expect decent re-
Enumeration for their services, we ac-
cepted the office upon the terms that
exist.
THE fact of the matter is this: Mr..
Foster had just experienced a rebuff in
the matter of an expense account, in
cident to services rendered by him as
councilman several years ago under a
previous administration. He was sore.
The matter had nothing to do with the
, rest of us. And there was no reason
why we should all be placed in the
light of schoolboys before the public.

traffic. From Warsaw a line will be
built to Plymouth. the halfway city
between LaPorte and Warsaw, and
from that point to LaPorte. The La
Porte-Fort Wayne extension will be in
units. each one a separate company, for
the purpose of financial convenience.
1t must be understood that at the
present time the air line cars operate
from South Bend to LaPorte over the
Northern Indiana line, under tragic
agreement.
Extension A $5.o0O.OoO Job.
1t is expected that 1t will take a
couple of years to complete the Fort
Wayne extension as 1t will require a
great. deal of financing. The estimated
cost of the project is $4,000. 000.' How
| ever. the phenomenal success of the
air line in this region. its good service.
| and the revenues of the Gary and Inter
urban, has attracted attention to the
company from the big financial centers
and 1t is believed that the bonding pro-
jects of the new extensions will be
easily accomplished.

80 per cent of their receipts out OF
