After donning theif bathing suits the
pair entered the water.
There was something of a sea fun
ning that day and consequently a few
breakers near shore.
Mf. Feinberg got in tip to his knees
when a wave broke in front of him
and few drops wet his face.
Mr. Feinberg not being able to swim
immediately became panic-stricken and
called long and loud for help.
Right there Was -where Mr. Nassau
showed he possessed the kind of spirit
that acturates heroes. With never a
thought for his own safety he dashed
courageously to the rescue (a distance
of three feet), even getting the bottom
of trunks wet in doing so, and extend
ing his good right arm, our hero took
Mr, Feinberg by the hand and gently
led him to water only six inches deep
instead of the eighteen inch depth
where the near accident had occurred.
Mr. Feinberg has decided to confine
his bathing operations In the future
to a bath tub.

it was that of his old friend, Anthony

time, however, he was much chagrined
to find Mr. Neison alive and well, shak

'T GO FAST THERE
Lowell Has Started to Glen
coize Scorching Chauf
feurs This Week.
Crown Point, Ind.. Aug. 8. (Spe
cial.) Philenus Williams, the livery
man, and his driver, John Carl, ran up
against th majesty of th law, in the
sha4e of Lowell's town marshal, on
Thursday while driving his automobile
on the main street of that town. Fast
driving and exceeding the speed limit
were the charges booked against Wil
liams and $10 was the amount it took
o settle them. It is said Williams
wasn't going much faster than a snail's
pace and the marshal didn't have to
hurry a bit to catch up with him, but
the weather was warm and the mar
shal appeared out of breath, which was
all the evidence needed to "s'welp me"
$10 fine. Don't do any Glencoizing
while you're in Lowell.
M FLURRIESEXPEGTEO
Business Developments Are
Normal With Occasional
Recessions.
Developments in the iron and steel
business during July has convinced
leaders in the industry that the recov
ery in that period from the general de
pression that had preceded was more
than a flurry and that a general ten
dency of the market will continue along
bordering lines. Occasional recessions
are expected, but without any serious
interruption.
Polities this week seems to over
shadow everything else Of interest.
Steel Mills Gaining.
The steel mills are gradually gaining
and activities at Pullman are improv
ing daily. Other smaller industries
are jumping to the front with as much
force as they can command to keep up
with the larger plants. The big thirty
acre tract purchased by the Ostermann
Manufacturing company at West Pull
man this week is the most hopeful of
recent date in the local situation.

Develop Territory.
With the advent of the new inter
urban line into this section will come
the development of a large territory
that for years has lain dormant.
It will mean that new industries will
spring up along the right of way and
it will also open up a rich farming
country which heretofore has been un

farmers would be practically at a loss
