WHY LOvERIDGE TRIED
To HURDLE THE FENCE

Jack Loveridge. back in Hammond
with the Jack Bessey show under can
vas, admits that the life Of an UNI
pire is hard and the fans and players
are often unjust. Hereafter when he
adorns a box at the Sox park as is his
wont II the hose are at home, Jack
will speak more kindly of the umpire.
It appears that the stock company

Advance Man Schultz. We're playing

catur, Ill, a few days age. Loveridge
was the umpore. He got along nicely
during the first inning which lasted
half an hour but in the second made a
grave error The batter hit to short
and raced to first. He reached the
bag as the first baseman gathered the
ball into his mitt.
Umpire Loveridge never hesitated
with his decision. Its even." he
shouted. go back and bat over

They caught Jack just as he was
trying to do a Douglas Fairbanks over
the fence.
Which recalls another trouper story.
The house manager of the theatre

He was new to the game having been

what "jazz" means. An actor who has
to fall down 10 get a laugh or hit an
other actor in the face with a pie is
doing "Hokum." Legitimate actors
don't do it.

AMP|CO P[EASES
IN DECEIV|NG

The Straube Piano e. Music 60. has
just received the wonderful Ampico.
The personality of the worlds great
technieian, Leopold Godowski, playing
the Pagannini La Campanella,' is
wholly human The Ampico almost
does the impossible. Unless the listen
playing. he will conclude that it is
a human being using the fun resources
of tone couor and artistic shading
while being charmed with Paderewski's
"AIinuet" played by Clarence Adler.
The Ampico actually reproduces the
playing of the artist to such degree
that It deceives experts. Every beau
tiful phase. every captivating accent
which the artist interprets into his
carefully interviewer theme is lacking
only by the absence OF the performer
at the piano-his real self in express
sion is in your presence.
The Amplico is alone In its sphere.
Until a short time ago such an instru-
nent was considered an impossibility.
Just as the VictroIa reproduces exactly
what it hears. the Amplico reproduces
the playing of great pianists, except
that the Amplico is life-size piano
operated by electricity. Even to an
encore-the Amp}ico Wall repeat its
clever performance for hours without
assistance.
Hammond music lovers should hear
the Amplico while on exhibition at
Straube's in this city. 1t Is OF more
than common interest. 1t is worth
while.

Alderman Feuer of Gary

Innocent Looking.

A nice little ordinance was introduced
into the Gary common council last night
by Alderman William s. Feuer, vice
president of the Gary Commercial club
and one of the residents Of town who
has bought more or less Broadway lots
from the Illinois Steel Company's sister
subsidiary. the Gary Land company.
IT'S to 1mpeach!
Mr.. Feuer's little ordinance is very
innocent looking and provides for a
permanent committee Of three aldermen
to look after Investigations" and what

come before it. The legislation was read
and then ordered referred 10 the pres

It may be stated here that if part Of
the council-or patriots outside the
council--wanted to get the mayor or
any official impeacher they couldn't do

ground after previous attempt, made
the night before had failed In the
first effort shades which had been re-
moved from the windows by the teach
er were restored by the destroyers, in
order that residents in the neigh
borhood of the school might not see
the flames, and a large section Of
flooring in the vicinity of the stove was
saturated with oil and ignited. The
flames burned out after consuming 4
space of about six feet, and the dam
age was not discovered until school
was opened the following morning.
Tracks were found, and the footprints
of horse believed to have been rid
den by the fire bug were traced to a
point two miles from the school house.
And that night the incendiarist re.
turned and completed the job.
There had been some little argument
as to the location Of the school, which
is now situated on the east side OF
the Little Missouri. A majority of
taxpayers wanted school on the west
side of the river, and the school,
board recently had voted to comply
with their wishes and build new
school there. This friction, therefore,
can hardly be held responsible for the
destruction of the old school building.
While in the western part Of the
state, Deputy Reade also investigated
the burning of school at South
Heart.
