GARY SCHOOL PLAN
FOR CITY IN CHINA

The Gary school system may be
adopted by one of the cities of China,
DIR. E. 1. Osgood. a medical mission
airy, who spoke here at the Central
Christian church on Sunday night.
spent Monday visiting the Gary schools.
and may have some of the features
adopted in the schools of Chu-Chew.
Since DIR. Osgood saved the city from
destruction in 1910 the Chinese have
consulted and honored him in every
possible way. Under his direction
sewers and sanitary improvements
have been constructed, streets widened
and paved. sidewalks introduced, parks
and Fairgrounds laid out and so many
improvements made that Chu-Chew is
fast becoming the model city of China.
The school system Is being enlarged
and extended to girls, new subjects are
being taught and DIR. Osgood hopes to
have the Chinese adopt many of the
vocational and other features which
are prominent in the Gary schools.
The features of economy make the
Gary schools desirable in China and
the duplicating schedule makes ii of
great value in such congested places as
are common in the new republic of
China.

EVANSVILLE OBJECTS
TO COAL PRICES
See No Reason In Increase
Lay Case Before At
torney General.

EVANSVILLE. IND. May 9-Hun-
dreds Of Evansville citizens have signed
a petition in circulation here. calling
upon Ele Stansbury, attorney general
of Indiana and Lane B. Osborn, prose-
cutting attorney Of Vanderburg county
to investigate the high price of coal in
the city. Many citizens who have sign
ed the petition. say they believe the sew
era1 advance in coal here since last fall
have been due to the fact that local
operators and dealers are in an unlaw-
full combination to control the output of
coal. and to keep the price up.
The petition asks that the attorney
general and Prosecutor Osborn take
steps at once. and IF it is found that
IN unlawful combination exists, as de-
fined in Chapter 81. Section 1855. Burns
Revised Statutes of Indiana that steps
be taken to dissolve the same, or If the
combination is in violation of the Sher-
man antitrust law. that the matter be
placed before the United States district
attorney a Indianapolis"
The petition says that since Septem-
Der. 1916. the price of coal here has in
creased from so to so per cent and in
some instances even more. Formerly
coal sold for. 8 and 0 cents a bushel
here. Now it rs being retailed at 16
cents a bushel. and recently operators
gave out the statement that the price
may go TO IS cents next winter.

CROWN POINT. IND. May 9.-The
old Tbist1ewaite hotel, one. of the land
marks at Cedar Lake. burned to the
ground yesterday afternoon. presumab-
ly from a fire which spread from the
burning of leaves and rubbish around
the place
The fire occurred about four O'Clock
in the. afternoon and by five o'clock. the
old hosiery on the picturesque banks OF
the lake of the Red Cedars was a mass
of burning ernbers and not timber was
left to mark the site of hotel that was
known and probably hosptaled thou
sands of Lake county people in its
PALMER days
The hotel was owned by NJ. Thistle
waite, a wealthy southern land owner
and was ran by the Hoffmans for the
last few years and has not been a pay
ing proposition for several years, it's To-
cation being out of the way of the lake
traffic
An ice house. stocked with ice. also
burned to the ground during the con-
fiagration and the loss is estimated al
from fifteen to twenty thousand dollars
upon which there was no insurance. A
number of Crown Point mechanics en-
ployed around the lake at the time OF
the blaze assisted in saving hundreds of
dollars worth Of furniture and other
contents of the building.

appeared before the board of works in
regard to added territory for the Local
ton of their filtration plant.
Mr. Kirk says that the present ter
