AMERICAN FIELD HEADQUAR-
TIERS, FRANCE Aug 21.-(By maiD
The sergeant had been drinking. It is
against the regulations and especially
against the spirit of the new American
army for a soldier-and sergeant, Of
all soldiers-to get drunk.
So when the sergeant awakened he
knew ne faced q storm. But the morn
ing routine in camp passed as usual.
There wasn't a word Of reproof. If the
captain knew. he wasn't letting on. At
noon-tirne the captain hurried through
his lunch and walked over TO where his
boys were sitting eating. The sergeant
knew the worst was about TO happen
without a word to the non-com the cap
tain called on al men Of more than
one years experience TO withdraw 200
yards. I want to have little talk
with the recruits" he said.
A non-comraissioned officer, who
knows better, came in drunk last night.
He has been in the army for a long
time. I've always told you to observe
the older men and follow their example
but you've got to use your mans sense

TWIN CITY SCHOOL BIDS
RUN $4,000 TOO HIGH

The East Chicago board OF edues-
ton last night rejected all bids for
the proposed industrial school build
ing to be placed on the Washington
building site.
The architect had figured literally
on the estimated cost and had made
allowance for the increased cost Of
labor and materials and had placed
his estimate at Sl25.000 for the build
ing complete. This estimate was made
this summer The lowest bid received
last night was s1i5.oO0 higher than
the architects estimate; or an increase
OF nearly 90 per cent over expecta-
tons
At the lowest bid price. the build
ing complete would cost between
100000 and 100000 more than the
school city could bond for even with
the increased valuation obtained at
Ind annapolis.
AS a result the contract was not
let last night The board promptly
rejected all bids.
Just what will be done in the light
OF this new development is at present
problematical The board will meet
tomorrow evening to discuss the mat
ter.
More room and added facilities to
meet the increased and growing de-
mands of tho education of the boys
and girls the young men and the
young women OF this city. are i'm
perative and 2nsistent.

THE TINES fight to make Jefferson

lived around the place has been success

steps TO provide q public comfort sta
ton there.
Without any public comfort station
and with no effort being made to pro

women and children who lived a few
blocks from il. It was. however, a fine
value booster for the homes OF park
officials who lived opposite it. The
place virtually was a private playground
for the few.
Yielding 10 the pressure brought by
The TINES and backed by Commissioner

HARRY THAW NEAR DEATH
WOUNDS SELF INFLICTED
Pittsburg Millionaire, Charged with Assault, Found
Horribly MutiIated with Razor Cuts when De-
teCtives Break into His Apartments

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. Hilary
X. Thaw, indicted in New York on a
charge of kidnapping and assaulting
Fred Grump, Jr., Kansas City boy,
attempted suicide at west Phil
adelphia apartment house today while
five detectives were endeavoring to
enter to take him into custody at
2:30 this afternoon.
Lieutenant Woods of the detective
force, found him sitting on chair
horribly mutilated with razor wounds,
and calmly watching the blood spurt-
ing from his body. The police hastily
bound the wounds, and Thaw tainted
and fell to the floor.
AS they grabbed him he whispered,
"St. Mary's," the hospital to which he
was taken, in a weakened condition.
DR.. Kirby announced that the condi-
ton of the patient is very grave, and
that he has but slight chances of re-
covering.
Thaw probably opened his veins
several minutes before the police en-
tered his apartments. Detectives
placed a strong guard at his bedside.
He will be taken back to New York
if he recovers
