He Represented Does
Not Exist.

II. A. Gage, and known by a half
dozen other names in and around
Mishawaka during the past two
weeks, who was arrested recently on
a charge of public intoxication. con-
feSsed Monday morning TO the local
police officials that he is wanted in
Chicago and numerous other cities on
charges Of magazine swindling.
Gage when arrested here, il is said
was under the influence of liquor.
However il was the purpose of De-
tective Weaver who made the arrest
10 file a complaint Of larceny by trick,
but the charge of public intoxication
was made against him. He was ar
raigned in the city police court last
Tuesday morning and his trial was set
for Saturday morning 10 allow the
police time to investigate his doings
in Mishawaka. Saturday morning
more time was asked for and his case
was again continued under $500
bonds which he was unable to fur
nish.
Weaver when he arrested Gage.
found him attempting to secure
money on check issued by DR.. Smith
of this city made out to the Interna-
tional Subscription agency. Gage it
is said cashed the check which called
for S1.S5. In his confession Monday
morning II Is Sdlu Indl NTdSc dulllll-
ted that no such company existed and
that he had the blanks printed in that
name himself.
1t is claimed that the local case
against Gage would have lacked evi-
dence if he had failed to confess.
The confession il is said was brought
about by information secured by
William Peers of this city who told
the police early last week he was sure
that Gage was a swindler. Peers
wrote to the Periodical Publishing
Co, and secured a book containing
pictures and data on variOus maga-
zine swindlers who have been ar
rested in this country. Cages picture
was in the book and also some data
stating that he was arrested in De-
trOit some time ago on charge of
swindling and spent 60 days in Jail
as a result. He is said TO have admit
ted that the information contained in
the book applied to him.
1t is also said that papers were
forwarded from police headquarters
at Chicago Monday for the arrest of
Gage, who is wanted in that city.

NOT GLAD TIME FOR WHALES
Resemblance to a Submarine Already
Ia Known TO Rave Meant
Death 70 One.

IN the North sea lived a whale.
That was long ago. OHvette in Au-
dran's long popular 0peretta told about
the luckless end OF that marine man
NAL in melOdiGus fashion. That whale
met a torpedo. and, mIstaklng It Tor
another and undesirable lsh or strange
shape. gave II battle with dire results.
Now from the same region We nave
authentic Information OF a whale which
was mistaken. not by another whale.
but by a warshlp, for 4 submarine
boat.
The body OF that whale has been
cast up on the Dutch coast full or
holes made by thTeelnCh shells. Per
haps a whale reese ubies a submarine
more closely than IL resembles a tor
pedo. There are architectural differ
ences. TO De sure, which would Oe
noted except N moments Of extreme
excitement On ana near the North
sea today, however there IS a great
deal OF excitement, AMI this doubtless
perfectly neutral creature has suffered
in consequence OF Il. There Is no evil
dence that this whale. ike his prede-
cessor, loved TO swagger and bully
or that the ladies' loved him So Not
being IN comic opera, ne. or she, pre-
sumably mad no characteristics IN
usual to the whales of sober natural
history. No record Of the incident eX-
cept the stranding Of the mortal rem
nant exists. One who would describe
the encounter must use his magma
ton. A Kipling or a Bullen might be
moved to splendid utterance by con-
temptation of this tragedy, but in a
daily newspaper we must stick to
facts. and the ascertained facts IN this
case are scant.
