HAMMOND BOY
4TH OUT OF 176

Competing a gainst 17e contestants
entered in the Northwestern university
oratorical contest at Chicago last Sav
urday, Clure Burge. representing the
Hammond high school, heaped more
fame uporf himself when he was
awarded fourth place. Out of 176 stu
dents he was selected one of the 32
who competed and rendered such an
able oratory that he secured fourth
honors.
"A Plea for Cuba" the same subject
with which he won first honors in the
Lake county oratorical contest was
rendered. Many were of the opinion
that he should have been given better
than fourth place, but considering that
this is his first year in oratory his
many friends are jubilant with him
earning such a victory.

ing made an affidavit on her. deathbed

Rensselaer,, Ind, June 3.-Eugene
B. Purtelle the kd-gloved traction
promoter who has made the fur fly
all the way from Hammond to this
place in promoting the Northwestern
Indiana Traction Company is in Jail
at Upton, Ind.
Purtelle languishes in the bastile
because of an old trick-that of issu-
ing a worthless check on Upton
bank. His arrest gives the Upton
Frankfort line a hard Jolt and as the.
circuit court is in session at Upton.
it may mean the penitentiary for
Purtelle.
At Hammond, Dyer. Lowell and other
places along the right of way of Pur-
telles dream he has been in trouble
before and there will be few tears shed
In those places because of Purtelle's
ruptcy in Chicago for nearly a million
dollars some time ago. but his in
domitable energy and nerve may pull
him out of his latest trouble.
Several years ago he operated a
string of commission houses in Indi-
ana He had shops at Anderson, FL
wood. Upton. Frankfort and many
other places. He had seat on tho
Board of Trade in Chicago and went
broke on the cotton market and finally
had to go through bankruptcy.
HIS DREAM WAS o. X.
| Then he promoted the Northwestern
Traction Company, a line to parallel
the Monon railroad from Chicago
through Hammond, down to Rensse-
laer. Mt. Ayr, and then along the Penn
sylvania lines from Wolcott to Logan

making a connection with other lines

Team drivers in Hammond are warn
ed against the use of the snake whip
by the Hammond Humane society,
which instructed its officers to use the
power the law provides in putting a
stop to that particular form of cruelty
to animals. Tom Harle of the Team
sters' union has long been making a
fight against his men using it.
Draymen and teamsters cannot af-
ford the stigma of being arrested and
fined for inhuman practice of the
kind and so the society feels that a
warning viii be sufficient AT the
meeting last night in room 2o4 of the
Hammond building all phases of the
question were considered.
The society wishes tos compliment
John Prohl on the condition of his
horses and the care he takes of them
All horsemen in Hammond who are
deserving of praise will surely receive
it from the society.

The PRESIDENT: The Chair lays
before the Senate for consideration the
report of the joint special committee
on the Governors Message, especially
assigned for this morning.
on motion by Mr.. Cole Of York the
report Of the committee was accepted
Mr.. COLE of YORK: Mr.. President: /
move yeu that the report be amended

as relates To public utilities, and SUBJ
shutting therefor. the following; THAT
50 much as relates to public utilities
be referred to the committees on 1u-
dietary and legal affairs, jointly
Mr. President / wish to explain the
reason for the amendment. There mas
been difference of opinion. an honest
difference Of opinion, among the mem
bers of the Legislature as to what
manner would be best to consider q
bin of the Importance of the public
utilities bill. 1t is new matter in
way, to this Legislature, although it
was considered by the Legislature OF a
year ago.
1t is for the first time. if at all, to
be enacted into law by this Legisla-
ture. | know there are many MEM
bers here who believe that a special
committee would better consider it and
its provisions than any of the joint
standing committees. | know that
there were others who did not be-
lieve in a special committee, and ]
was one of that number, and am one
of that number | believe that any
measure which comes under the gen.
eral law should be considered either
by joint standing committee of the
Legislature or by joining the neces-
sary joint standing committees, and
that is the only proper way to con-
slider any bill which has the impor
lance of this bill. And it is with that
idea in mind that | offer this amend
ment. Senate Amendment A.
Mr.. HERSEY of Aroostook; Mr..
President: | assume, as chairman OF
the committee which made this report.
and which was unanimous, that
ought to state our position. from
experience in this Legislature, two
years ago when this subject matter OF
public utilities was before a sub-com-
mittee of the judiciary and the legal
affairs, it resulted in nothing of inter
est to the people of this State. II
was the opinion of your committee on
the Governors message. and / think it
was the opinion of the Speaker of the
House, and you, Mr.. President, and the
Governor as we'll, that this matter of
public utilities should be taken up by
joint special committee, and nom

Putting 1t Up To Mary

A couple OF years ago Detroit doc
tor, with plenty Of money and super
abundant enthusiasm, went 10 the
pretty English town OF Chepstow and
began digging In the muddy bottom
Of the River Wye. As the tide went
out toward the Severn this American
set his gangs Of men daily at work.
He paid them we'll He was at once
an angel and q wonderment and butt
for the Monmouthshire pumpkins.
In the bottom Of the Wye this De-
troit deliver was confident Of finding
the final and incontrovertible proof
thateShakespeare did not write Shake
,speare's plays. There was wild the
cry that Bacon had murdered Shake
speare. or that Shakespeare had muir
dered Bacon, and that the head or the
esophagus or the medulla oblongata
of one OF them would be found hidden
in an iron bound boxc together with
documents. So the natural turbidity
of the tidewater Wye was Increased
for many months by the happy dig
gers, who took American pay In good
quantities.
This Wye business was, at that time,
the most ridiculous manifestation Of
The Detroit times., 1913-05-31

the neutrality-suspicious., the men who
have taken as their religion the dog.
ma that Shakespeare did not write
Shakespeare. All manifestations OF
this kind are intrinsically foolish, but
this delving Of the Michigander was
the elimination. 1t Is now pleasing
to note that he has been surpassed,
and by Englishmen.
The newest hypothesis Is that
Shakespeare's plays were written by
Mary Queen Of Scots.
Many at present owes her fame to
the fact that she was handsome and to
the fortuitous circumstances that she
had her head chopped on. Otherwise
she was a person who loved indis.
criminately and plotted indiscrimin.
ately and got many light.headed males
into trouble. That she possessed lit.
erary talents Is phase which has
escaped rhapsodists and apologfsts.
The latest vagary OF the anti.
Shakespeare cranks is so startling
that one readily forgets the Detroit
doctor and his borrowings In the
Chepstow mud. One may now conf.
IDENTIFY await documentsly proof that
Bill Nye, George Washington, Theo-
dore Roosevelt and the Sweet Singer
Of Michigan collaborated to produce
the plays that have hitherto been
arron eously ascribed to the Bard OF
Avon.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Travers on Golf.

Jerome ID. Travers. who is reputed
TO be the best golfer yet produced by
this country, has written book on
the game published this month by the
Mcmillan Co. In il. he relates many
personal experiences and tells how
each stroke the player is called upon
TO make should be executed. His owK
style is illustrated by many photo
graphs. Travers won the national
championship for the third time last
year
