Head Of Paving Company Makes In
-. spectkon Of Streets

spectkon OF Streets
H. A. Kingsley, head Of the Kaw
Paving company that laid the last
paving In town, went over the bus
mess streets this morning with the
commissioners and talked on the
matter of repairs at the noon day
lunch. He said that 1t Is impracti-
cal to patch 1t. being a poor make
shift that would last but a short
time. Brick paving could not be put
over the base except at high ex.
pense owing to the nature Of the
base. He advised resurfacing which
he said would cost about 81 a
square yard. The Sarco surface
that is In the downtown district, he
said, is not used now. Abilene was
one Of few towns that ever were In
duced to try 1t. The old surfacing
can be used to make a covering for
driveways, ETC., the business men
adopted resolution asking the COM
missioners to resurface the business
district.
Mr.. Kingsley suggested also that a
cheaper and better method might be
to lay one and one-half inches OF
asphalt over the present paving,
avoiding the necessity of taking up
the old surface. His estimates were
only approximate. He will figure
out details later.
Mr.. Kingsley also looked over
some Of the pavement that his COM
pany laid which has become wrtn-
killed. as on South Buckeye and East
Third and cracked as on North
Kinney. He said that the company
would correct these defects although
the period Of guaranty has expired

I was pale, didn't feel like going.
Would just drag around, and couldn't
rest to do any good. Iwould suffer
once month with my back, sides
and head. My limbs would ache and
I didn't know what to do, but I knew
I must do something, for I didn't get

my mother is a believer in Cardui
for she saw what it did for others as
we'll as herself, SO she began giving
it to me.
ct wasn't long before saw a
change. 1t was just what needed.
It regulated me. I began to eat and
sleep, and the pain stopped.
"Cardui is without doubt the best
female tonic made, and I am glad
can recommend it to Others"
If suffering with symptoms such as
Miss Hughett mentions, or other all
ments peculiar to women, why not be-
gin Cardui at once? It's merit is we'll

CORONER SAYS INQUEST
WILL NOT BE HELD NOW

Chesterton, Ind, Feb. % (by the
Associated Press IAN immediate
inquest into the death of the forty
or more persons killed in last
nights wreck will not be held, DE-.
H. o. Seipel, coroner, said today,
DR.. Seipel said the mutilated
condition of the bodies meant it
might be days or weeks before
even a large majority could be
identified and that he felt this
work must be finished first
The morgue here was crowded
beyond its capacity. The cellar was
pressed into service for unidenti-
fled bodies. All day long, old men,
women and even children filed be-
tween the piled up tables to view
the dead, all seeking missing rela-
tives.
At Porter the wreck had made
that little country place a country
wide attraction like circus. Farm
ers lined the streets with their
muddy machines and wagons, ard
among them mingled foreign rs
who had motored here from Gary.
News of the wreck had to be OBJ
tanned from three towns--Michi-
gan City, Porter and Chesterton.
AS a result the few taxi owners
made money easily, charging 81
mile.

and the child welfare board i.
suggested in a bill presented tc
the senate this afternoon by j. F.

signed to end the controversy over
the money which might come tc

Senator Reinburg's bill proposed
the creation of the welfare depart
ment, Which shall have a board Of
five TO govern it. Three of these
shall be the members Of the pres
ent board of health ana the two
new members shall be women. This
will give the women three of the
five places on the board, Mrs. AIDE

The commissioner of public well

DEATH list WON'T BE
MORE THAN 81, CLAIM

Porter, Ind, Feb. % (by the AS
ISOLATED Press.) A complete
lcheck-up by railroad officials and
the coroner of the bodies in the
Chesterton moreue at o'clock to-
night revealed that there we're not
more than thirty-seven known dead
in the Michigan Central-New York
Central wreck last night.
The discrepancy between this
count and the one of more than
forty previously announced by Corr
oner Fl. O. Seipel was found to be
due to the mutilated condition of
some of the dead. In some cases
a body badly manged had been
counted as two.
Coroner Seipel announced the
following official tabulation:
Bodies in Chesterton morgue-25
to 27.
Bodies removed from Chesterton
morgue--S
Bodies in Michigan city,.
Total dead--35 to 81. So
Coroner Seipel said that 1t might

Trainmen and citizens continued
in their belief that Joe Cook. sub

night, had closed the crossing
against the Michigan Central train
and opened it for the New York
