Cedar Lake Lot Sales Are Still Being Made—5,000 to Date.

Crown Point Star. —The Porth end of Lake county surely has a rival in Cedar Lake. ‘The Shades” land company don’t charge as much for lots as they do tn Gary and Hammond,‘butto numbers sold they have discounted both those cities. Their magazine advertising and their low prices for building lots is catching, and it is said that more than 5,000 25-foot tots have been sold this summer, many to people in the eastern states, hundreds of miles away. The last tract bought, and now being platted, is on the south side of the stone road, east of the Jim Ray corner, which will add hundred tots to ‘The Shades” and bargains are being hunted on all sides of the lake where tracts of land can be bought. With Gary to the north of Crown Point and ‘The Shades” but five miles south it is possible that we will be annexed to one place or the other if we don’t look out. Lake county is surely going some, and there is no end to the energy of her people, who came here to do something, and they are doing it. The Round Table Club will have a picnic dinner at 6 o’clock Saturday evening, July 4tte at the home of Mr. and Mrs. E. P 7 Honan. All members are requested to bring their own dishes. A house belonging to George W. Ott and occupied by his son, Rex Ott and family, was completely destroyed by fire at an early hour yesterday morning. The house is situated just north of the residence of Charles A. Reed, on North Matheson avenue. The fire started in a closet beneath a stairway and was discovered ait about 3 o’clock in the morning. Mr. Ott and his wife managed to save most of their household goods. The fire company was called but not until the house was almost entirely consumed. It was covered by insurance.

Coach Stove Farrell, of the University of Michigan track team, has overlooked valuable track material in Alfred Thompson, of this city. Tuesday afternoon, while endeavoring to count the cattle in hio tether’s herd, he was forced to outfoot some 65 overeurious steers in a hundred yard dash, hesitating tong enough to extricate himself from a'barb wire fence. It was really a wonderful exhibition.

MAX BRILL HEADS NET YORE SOCIETY

Former Rensselaer Boy at Head of Freundschaft Society Which Has New Club House. Many Rensselaer people will remember Max Brill, who was a clerk some thirty years ago in Ralph Fendig’s store. The New York Herald of June 18th published a picture of Max and hi swife in connection with an extended write-up of the opening of the Freundschaft Society’s new club house at 105 West Fifty-Seventh street. Max is the president of the society, which is a high honor. The club was founded in 1879. The new elub house is described at tenth by the Herald, which tells of the dining room, the dance hall, the “Room of a Hundred Aces”, where priiochle and other games are played, which, it says, is the most alluring card roo mover seen ip New York city. It says a “man who would not enjoy playing cards in* such delightful surroundings would trump his partner’s lead.” The Herald says that Max D. Brill has been especially active in making the migration a success. The article concludes with the following: “After the dinner the members made the grand tour of their new home. They found the Italian roof garden, with its pergola, picturesque, but too cool as yet for dining. They found that the library, with its hangings of green and its oaken -trim, ahd the billiard its tables of .Circassian watou-t, were better adapted for wiling away the hours. In front of the card room is the blue lounge.” —■ ——-tt—
