WILSON RISES
TO AN EMERGENCY

The recent situation caused by
floods and storms was the first emer-
gency to confront the new federal ad-
ministration, still only month old,
mess to rise to the occasion. Presi-
dent Wilson promptly offered the help
of the entire country to the stricken
communities. Tents, cots, blankets
and food were ordered into the storm
swept and flooded districts, in the
most expeditions manner possible. But
the President did more than this.
Within twenty-four hours after the
development of the floods in Ohio and
Indiana, he directed three steps to be
taken, which, SO far as we are aware,
are unprecedented. Yet they were
taken 30 quietly, and so much as a
matter of course, that probably nine
out of ten of those who read the dis.
patch from Washington saw no signifi
canoe in the orders which had been
given.
The first was that the crews and
equipments from the life-saving sta
lions on Lake Michigan and Lake Erie
were ordered to proceed at once to the
flooded districts to assist in saving
lives. Like all simple but unprece
dented acts, the common sense of this
move commends itself at once to all

A Washington woman of the So
termed social-elect is having the world
dragged for a mate for her $4,000
lap dog.
The $4,000 is not an imaginative
figure. 1t is the value in dollars
placed upon the present incumbent by
experts at such appraising. If mate
for her lap dog be found the Washing
ton woman will play $4,000 spot cash
for it. The mate must not weigh
more than three pounds-$3,3 1898 per
pound.
newspaper picture has been print
ed of the lap dog for which COM
panion is SO desired; that the globe
is to be secured for it.
The animal does not resemble dog
at all.
1t looks something between a dragon
eyed goldfish, a muskrat afflicted by
the mango, and the green moray at
the Aquarium. 1t is an Italian dog,
and it is proclaimed that its ancestry
has been traced" back to the era of
the early Caesars. This probably &C
counts for the dogs lack of canine
pulchritude.
1t may have been observed that even
in the human species there is some
thing strikingly incompatible, not to
say insuperable, between length OF
pedigree and good looks.
A regular dog-a dog that looks and
acts like a dog; a dog worth, say
about $225-still holds a well defined
place in creation.
Such a dog usually has acuteness
imagination, loyalty, social charm
Often this sort of a genuine doggy
dog possesses all of these qualities
in combination.
If the time were ripe for the ex
tinction of the dog of this type hi
would be defunct For nature knows
her business.
But the time is not yet ripe. TIT
average decently trained dog of mid
ding pedigree, or of no pedigree a
all, makes good for his board AM
keep, if only through making III
ashamed of our own foibles by hi
sagacious and yet indulgent way o
sizing us up out of the tail of hi
shrewd eye.
But the intelligence of the lap dol
never by any chance equals that o
the starfish. OF real canine loyalt,
he has none. His affection is dilute'
AMI fraudulent.
Then why is lap dog? Not a $40
900 lap dog particularly, but ANY kin
of lap dog.
Ten thousand dollars is considers
BILE sum of money. There are som
very pleasant places in California

The facts set forth in the statement, it

any of its property, even at very advan-

lieved to be speculation. at the expense

An average lot not abutting on a trunk

trunk lines would be assessed an addi-

is also to be added the cost of the

Those who favor the project were in

it. but with opposition developing it

STEEL TRADE SHOWS
A BIG IMPROVEMENT

Pittsburg, Apri %. The Western
mills have completed the first full
week of operations since the March
floods. Tonnage output has been
speeded up practically to the pace be-

With resumption of shipments to
practically all points, the extravaganza

enough shortage of prompt finished
steel to stop the occasional shading in
some of the less popular lines.
Reports of a slowing up in specifica-
tions early in the week against con-
tracts were not borne out by a can

rush has moderated in the fling of new
business for future delivery, but sales
offices report falling off in the de-
liveries against contracts.

HAPPINESS
OF SHORT
DURATION

Complaining that her husband to
whom she had been married only two
weeks had beat her and driven her out
of the house, Mrs Yoka Puetz of East
Hammond took steps this morning to
start divorce proceedings in the SUI
perior court. Fearing that her husband
would do her harm she was afraid to
go home last night. so the officers let
her spend the balance of the evening
in the ladies' cell at the central sta
ton.
Unable to speak or understand a
word of English and being without
any means of support. except what her
brutal husband has given. her case is
told story to the following effect: A
month ago she was in Poland and re-
ceived an encouraging letter from her
brother stating that he had found her
a good husband and that she should
come to America.
Taking her little savings she made
the long voyage alone. Arriving in
Hammond two weeks ago she came to
the central station and with the aid
of the police located the brother and
her husband. The next day they were
has not spent one happy moment in
that time.
She asked the police for protection
last night and wanted the husband
arrested. Instead she was advised to
consult an attorney and start divorce
proceedings.

The board of public works this morn
ing took steps to widen Lyman street
from Webb street to Conkey avenue.
Lyman street parallels the Monon right
of way on the west side and II suffi-

the city engineer to prepare plans and
specifications according to which an ad
ditional 16 foot strip would be taken

and Conkey avenue as this would bring
the width of the street to their taking
Into consideration that here is already
a fourteen foot alley along there.
