During the last season The Case OF

on there, and II made a tremendous
hit The applause at the drop OF the
curtain at the end o. each of the
three acts was deaiening. Every line

went. Finally, the manager OF the
company stepped before the curtain
and expressed the fear that he might

audience or might reflect upon their
intellects, but he dared 10 assert that

To The Editor:-I noticed in
THE TIMES the attack Mrs.
Winckler made on Miss Virginia
Brooks and her work If Ham,
mond society was so shocked at the
dance Miss Brooks gave five years
ago, why did Mrs. Winckler have
her name in the year book to read
for the club this year? On several
other occasions Mrs. Winckler has
tried to get her to speak at several
entertainments the club gave. As
for the article written by Miss
Bennett in the Pictorial Review"
it is the truth only not half enough
of It. Miss Brooks girl as we
must call her is / guess too smart
for all of us, and Hammond had
its name long before Miss Brooks
came here. I for one. think she is
wonder. Instead of all in Ham

MAN ROBS
BENEFACTRESS

After enjoying the hospitality which
was offered him out of sympathy, an
ungrateful guest, who had entered the
Queen City restaurant at 67S South
Holman street at eleven O'Clock last
Saturday night, demanded a hatchet
from Mrs. Tate the wife of the pro-
prietor- Receiving it he chopped OFF
the gas meter and threw it into the
alley after having stolen between s4
and SIS in quarters, which it had con-
tained.
Mrs Tate and her little daughter
were the only occupants of the restaur-
ant at the time. The woman who is
afflicted with rheumatism was over
come by gas, by the time her daughter
had summoned aid. In the mean time
the man had made his get away and
when a search was made for the gas
meter which he had thrown in the
alley. this too was found to have dis
appeared. Whether he had aceompliccs
is not known. The police thus far have
no clews.
The stranger came into the restaur-
ant shortly after the mattresses had
gone home. He looked hungry and
said he was penniless and Mrs Tate in
answer to his plea gave him a cup of
coffee and bite to eat. He took his
time at this and after having finished,
he demanded that she bring him at
hatchet. The woman scouting trouble
was however too afraid to refuse, and
brought him the tool with which he
proceeded a once to chop off the gas
meter. After he had finished his job,
he threatened Mrs Tate against calling
for help

Monon tracks near Condit street early
Thursday afternoon In which Murray
Franklin of Chicago charges that he
was assaulted and robbed of a payroll
containing $1,100 still continues to
battle the police. After working on the

in Hammond Saturday. looking over
the scene of the hold-up and securing
additional facts. Saturday Chief
Austgen also received telegram, stat
ing that $3.50 reward would be paid
