MONDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1906. BEGIN NOW, HAMMOND. Chicago's public spirited citizens are about to undertake at great expense, to transform the city by the lake from a comparative blot on the landscape to a gem of purest ray serene. While Chicago as a city is not the ugly spot it is represented by tiie envious East, there is no question that there is room for improvement and a great deal of room. There is also no doubt that had the matter of the appearance of the city from an artistic standpoint been given a little thought before Chicago had taken on its present gigantic proportions, it could be beautified at far less expense with . better results than will be possible under present conditions. Hammond should take warning from ita big neighbor to the North. It is in the formative state right now, when a little attention to general effect will go a long way aud will obviate the necessity for subsequent action in later years by public-spirited citizens, such as has been undertaken by the Mer chants' club of Chicago. Hammond is destined to progress commercially with the same tremendous strides that characterized Chicago's progress in the early days, and the people here are liable to be "too busy" to pay any at tention to the artistic beauty of their city. Later on when the town becomes unwieldy and past doing anything with in the matter of beautifying it, the people will wake up to the fact that Hammond is an ugly blotch upon the map devoid of any attractiveness and incapable of Improvement excepting at enormous expense. Hammond has a park system which In the rush of business has fallen into unseemly neglect, but it is a nucleus for better things. If a little judgment were exercised with reference to the laying out of new subdivisions, etc., there might be hopes of Hammond's future if not as a beauty spot, at least a town which would not get a reputa tion for its ugliness. Without this the outlook is extremely gloomy. Inattention to beauty in a town is the natural outcome of too rapid commercial developement, but Hammond might benefit by the experience of sister cities who have grown rapidly and lived to regret their sacrifice of beauty to the mad rush of business. stitch in time saves nine is an old saw that la not to be scoffed at. MAI, 1)E CAB. A new disease has been discovered In Hammond, and it is now running a good second to rcalestatis. It is called " mal de ear." because the symptoms and development are similar to those of mal de mer, otherwise known as sea sickness. It is of a sporadic nature and the focus of infection is confined to the Hammond street cars. A ride over the undulating right-of way of the Hammond street railway partakes of all the features and sensa tlons of a trip across the lake in an overloaded excursion steamer in a choppy sea. The street-car people claim that they are not to blame for running their teeter-totter hen-coops over " floating rails, which are sometimes in the street and sometimes on the sidewalk. They mean to put down good rails som time. They would like to re-track with Standard groove rails, but the steel companies cannot insure delivery of the same within a year. In the mean time they are willing to furnish temporary relief by laying a new set of rails of the kind now in use, but the city council will not permit it. Probably the city council knows the street-car people better than we do. It may be figured that if the street-car people were permitted to re-equip with material similar to that now in use they would wait until the track was as full of "low joints" as the present one is before they would think of making another change. When that time arrived the steel mills might be as slow in deliveries as they are now Meanwhile, the best way to prevent the contraction of "mal de car" is to do all your intramural riding on foot. STREET-f Alt l'UO 1 ECTIOX, Probably there is no community in the country that is more interested in the problem of transportation than the collection of scattered settlement which are rapidly growing together at this end of Lake Michigan. The de plorable disaster at Atlantic Lity yes terday has brought up again the mat ter of construction of cars. Possib! the cars in which the passengers were trapped, with r.o means of escape, were devised as the result of an agitation on the part of the people for more comfortable and convenient vehicles. A few of the same cars are now being tiFed in the interurban service in this vicinity. It is said of them, that when inside, the passengers are positively helpless unless the motorman Is quick enough to release the catches on the rear doors when an accident is impending. This

places more dependence on a motorman than should be assumed by him. The closing - of the platforms may have been devised as a means of protection for and against "flippers," but now those who have agitated for them will say that they were adopted by the

tockholders for the simple purpose of gathering fares. In some cases the first purpose of the promoters and the purveyors of streetrailway service may be the protection of their passengers, but it is always accepted as truth that the motto of transportation companies is: "Take care of the nickles, and let our lawyers and jurors take care of the lives." THE contractors have not yet begun the work of tearing down the Central school to make room tor that new hotel. Why this delay? WITH THE EDITORS. Almost every town has a character ho sprained his back in 1S63, or there abouts. He is physically unable to work, hut he can sit all day on a hard box in a livery stable plying checkers. while his wife chases underbreeches up and down the washboard to keep him in smoking tobacco and grub. Ain't it the truth? The Reflector. Between Trains A Long Root. (From "Success Magazine.") An Irishman, with one jaw very much swollen from a tooth that lie wished to have pulled, entered the office of a Washington dentist. When the suffering Celt was put into the chair and saw the gleaming forceps approaching his face, he positively re fused to open his mouth. Being a man of resource, the dentist quietly in structed his assistant to push a pin into the patient's leg, so that when the Irishman opened his mouth to yell the dentist could get at the refractory molar. When all was over the dentist smil ingly asked: "It didn't hurt as much as you ex pected, did it?" "Well, no," reluctantly admitted the patient. "But," he added, as he ran his hand over the place into which the assistant had inserted the pin, "little did I think them roots wint that far down!" A business man in a neighboring town who has the reputation of pos sessing a violent temper and sharp wit was talking over the 'phone the other day when he was cut off by a cross wire. He lost his temper, began to fret audibly, finally bellowing so loud that he could be heard three stories below. "Central," he finally concluded, "I wish you'd take this telephone to the devil." Then he hung up the receiver. Central indignantly reported this to tho superintendent of the company, who paid a hurried visit to the com plaining patron. "Mr. Blank," said that personage se verely, "either you apoligize to that girl, or I'll remove your 'phone." Mr. Blank said nothing, but, going to the instrument rang up central. Hello! this is Blank." he said. "Are you the young lady 1 requested to take my telephone to the devil?" "I believe I am, sir," coldly came the response. "Well, you needn't bother, thank you; your superintendent is here; lies going to do it." East Side News. Emll Ilanke of the East Side has ac cepted a position at Indiana Harbor. George Edwards of the East Side is having the store at 9914 Ewing avenue remodeled for a phonograph store. "What Happened to Jones" playing at the Calumet theatre, is good. Jones' family should not miss it. The residence of John Berg at 69th street and Ewing avenue, is nearing completion. Frank Smith has accepted a position with the Federal Furnace company at 108 th street and Caulmet River. Gust Dahl and Axel Larson have ac cepted positions with the Inland Steel company at Indiana Harbor. C. T. Chuddy, the genial mail carrier of the East Side, is suffering from a slight illness, and his many friends miss him very much. John Ewing of the East Side, who recently had his finger mashed at the Federal Furnace company, while em ployed for Hibbers company, boiler makers, has returned to work. Albert Johnson. Earl Sehnaudt, Hughey Martin and Joseph Miller, visited their friend, Joseph Dahlin at the Washington hospital where he has cone through an operation for some hip disease. He is Improving nicely and we all hope for his speedy recovery. George Dahlin of the East Side has opened a pool room at 10007 Ewing ave nue. He is well known on the East Side, having lived here all his life, and his many friends predict a good business for him. The South Chicago basketball club defeated the Normals yesterday at the South Chicago baseball nark bv the score of 6 to S and also won the championship of the south side semi-pros. The first game of the season was won by South Chicago by the score of 2 to 0 at the South Chicago grounds. Then two tie games were played at the Norma! grcunds and yesterday's victory gave the locals the championship. There has been several dollars change hands as the result of this series. Hint for Dramatic Critics. It appears that some of the Tokyo dramatic critics have been for some time in the habit of performing in comedies and taking the most celebrated roles. The Japanese critics think, in fact, that before judging the play of the actors they should themselves experience the difficulties of dramatic art.

STOCKS AND

Latest Movements in By Direct Wires to NEW YORK LETTER, New York, Oct. 29. After the overSunday buying orders were filled the stock market lapsed into the same dull rut that has been so apparent for the past week. Traders, as a rule, prefer to wait until after election before committing themselves very extensively on either side of the market. About five stocks comprised the majority of the entire trade, and their tone was a trifle firmer, particularly Reading Pennsylvania, Union Pacific and Si. Paul. Reading rallied from an opening around 141 up to 142, but on the advance met liberal selling by professionals and room traders. Pennsylvania also had a very firm undertone, and the belief seems to be growing more general that there is an unwieldy short interest in this issue. It, opened at 140 and had a gradual, sneaking rally up to 142V4- It looked as if some heavy short was trying to buy in a part of his contracts. St. Paul sold up from 171 to 172 on scattered buying of the smaller sort. The balanee of the list swayed back and forth between narrow limits. In the late afternoon, when the directors of the Pennsylvania company announced an increase of one-half of one per cent, in the dividend, the issue scored a further advance, selling up to 143 3i, closing near the top price. Outside of the strength in this issue the market, generally, closed with a weak undertone. pit, nnii AvnAir ninirT HEW YORK STOCK MARKET

HEARD ON THE BOURSE. New lork, October 29, 1906. The stock market in the language of the old timers is a case of "nothing doing,' not enough outside business to help out. There is hardly any commission business at all worth speaking about and the prosepcts are that there will not be enough money to speculate with as the bank reserve is less than hal what it was last year and is lower than it has been in the past six years Speculators will remember that even with the bank reserves of last vear money went to 125 per cent in Novem ber, and they are net in favor of a dose like that again this year. In addition to all of this the election is only a, week away and it is just as well to wait and see what will happen. It really looks as if Hearst was gaining in strength on account of the large crowds he is able to get together, but sti11 a circus draws a big crowd. One weu posted man who has handled large speculative accounts says no matter who is elected the market will not go up; if it happens to be Hearst, the timid will sell out their stocks at once for fear the country will go to the bow wows. And if Iluarhes is elected the big fellows will sell their stocks be cause the market will be heavv and they can only sell out on a good strong market. And no matter if dividends are raised on Steel common and the Pennsylvania road the market will sell 1 - . . uu on account 01 money, i ne mere fact that the Bank of England has to take such drastic action as to raise its rate to 6 per cent is a killer on the stock market. The market may be nar row and refuse to go down but you can1 not get up any ounisn Dooming market without you can borrow money freely; No matter what the interest rate is you can afford to pay high rates if you can only get the money, but this action by the Bank of England says you cannot get money from us any longer no mat ter what you pay for it and we will keep on raising the rate so high that the rest of the world will make money scarce for you, too of course it is possible that Shaw will rp.lpn, thp fortv tiiir.n f foi.r r,r cent bonds that the City National Bank has been gathering up. In the mean time we will have some trading and scale selling of the active stocks when high or scale buying when weak, of steei, copper. Hills stocks, Pennsylvania Canadian Pacific, Union and Southern Pacific. Baltimore & Ohio will be profitable, especially St. Paul and Union They will lead the bull market later if the election goes to Hughes and some money is released. They are all mak ing big money and even Harriman who has been a seller of Union Pacific, says it is earning 24 per cent and is only paying 10 per cent, will do nothing to support the market except on week days. Harriman is telling his friends to pick up Illinois Central and Union Pacific the biggest amount or gold ever shipped on one boat $60,000,000 arrived in London, that also helps, but is all needed. Every broker has the slogan now ' Sell on the rallies; only buy them when weak and keep close to the 1 shore."

The foreign money market has sent

American stocks into the market for sale and there has been a good deal of liquidation. Large operators are out of the market and the big bankers are adverse to big speculative activity. When prices go up they offer stocks too freely to allow of any rise to amount to anything. They also put in fine support on any marked decline. This by itself keeps the speculation quiet. They have the market well in hand and will use every effort to keep it quiet. The New York Central is almost in position where it simply will have to refuse freight; It is now carrying ninety-five cars to a train; in one in stance it hauled 7,a91 loaded treight cars of sixty tons to the car, in twenty four hours. This is in addition to its enormous passenger traffic and the empties. The fact is the business on the road has grown faster than the ca pacity of the road to handle it. Atchison shows a net gain of $1,400,000 equal to about 17 per cent on the common stock. The United States Steel company will show earnings of over $40,000,000 fi the quarter and 7,500,000 tons of unrilld orders. Brooklyn is one of the stocks that is better supported than any other stock on tne list. There is a tremendous short interest in it and on the election of Hughes it is slated for 90 in 24 hours. The Rock Island is out with a fine annual report, but the Moore crowd just now is quite bearish on the whole list. The next statement of the Bank of England will show a big improvement; the last bad statement had been made for the year. Growth of St. Lawrence Valley. The St. Lawrence valley has passed the Hudson and Mississippi river val leys in growth. In 1860 the opening of the Victoria bridge to Montreal, over 9,000 feet long, at a cost of $6,300,000, was also the beginning of the opulence of newspapers, the most efficient of which then sent for the first tima spe cial correspondents to report the prince of Wales, who arrived in Can ada to open the bridge. The Crocodile. The moment that a young crocodile breaks its shell it is to all intents and purposes as active as it is at any time during its life. It will make straight for the water, even if it be out of sight and a good distance off, and it will pursue its prey with eagerness and agility during the first hour of its free existence. Unique Bible. The most costly book in the royal library at Stockholm is a Bible, and there is not another just like it in the world. In weight and size alone it is unique. It is said that 160 asses' skins were used for its parchment leaves. Each page falls but an inch short of a yard in length. The width of the leaves is 20 inches. The covers are solid planks four inches thick. Commercial New Zealand. The boys and girls of New Zealand must have singularly commercial minds if a letter written by one young New Zealander, and quoted in an English paper, is typical. This bov writes enthusiastically of the achievements of a certain football team, the All Blacks, and thn observes seriously that the premier Is very proud of the victories, which are a SDlendid advertisement for New Zealand mutton and butter. The Euphagists. Euphagists are 1 dietetic sect who refuse to take eating seriously. They purpose to eat, drink and be merry especially, be merry. It is the royal road to health and Ions life. The London News suggests that "if a care less attendant spills hot soup down the back of his neck, the euphagist temporarily stops euphaging, that is all." Statue Found Husband. A Chicago woman prayed for 15 years before the plaster image of the saint interested in such matters for a husband. Her faith finally failed and Bhe threw the image out of her win dow. That did the business. When the man with the broken head opened his eyes it was to gaze into those of the unwilling spinster. She nursed him back to life, married life. Flower That Has No Boot There i3 a plant in Chili and a similar one in Japan called the "flower of the air." It is so called because it appears to have no root, and is never fixed to the earth. It twines round a dry tree or a sterile rock. Each shoot produces two or three flowers like a l ." i : . a. r A rtrif or. my wmie, irau paieui. auu OUS. It is capable Of being transport- . crn . nA . ,.c(tot,til, B if ed 600 to 00 miles and vegetates as u travels suspended on a twig. Corollary of a Child. During the course of a little sermon on morals at a Sunday school the instructor saia: An eiteneuv way, children, when you are in doubt as to whether a thing is right or wrong is to follow the rule never to do anything which you would be ashamed tc have the whole worid see." Hotue from the school rushed one small pupil in high glee. "Mamma," he said, as soon as he found his mother: "I'm never to take any mre cold baths in chilly weather, says it's wrong." Teacher War Is Expensive. The French government spent $30,000,000 during the late crisis over Morocco in getting ready for a war with Garmany,
