Within two weeks the extension of the south side trolly line of the Hammond, Whiting and East Chicago railway will be completed to the Stand
ard Steel Car works and everything will
be in" readiness for the running of the
cars. The work has been pushed with great rapidity of late and the tracks and wires have been put in place as far as Columbia avenue. Now the
work to come will be the laying of the
loop at Columbia avenue and the grad
ing which will take but a short time. The company have promised many
changes on this line which taps the
best resldental section of Hammond on the south side, and the working
men's settlement about the car works.
Instead of the broken backed cars now in operation between East Chicago and Hammond, dirty and totally inadequate to the traffic, new and larger coaches are to be installed. The cars, four in
number, are of the latest and best type
of street car, clean and roomy, and are
even larger than the ones running to
South Chicago. They were originally
intended for the so-called "short line"
but were found to be too big to cross the bridges on that route and are to
be used on the East Chicago-Standard
Steel Car works line.

ChnrgeH mh to Affair of J. T. Tag-, gnrt, Secretary of Indiana Organization, Cause Friends Surprise. Logansport, Ind., June IS. The sessions of the Indiana Municipal league meeting here were enlivened by rumors that J. T. Taggart, city clerk of Richmond and treasurer of the league, was in trouble regarding certain accounts which he had reported paid, but which, it appears, had not been settled. One creditor appeared at the meeting yesterday to collect $237 due him and Treasurer Mellett of the league presented Taggart's receipt for the money. President France. Mellett, Taggart, and the creditor got together and Taggart admitted that he had given Mellett the receipt, but confessed that the debt had not been paid. There were numerous rumors afloat during the day, but Taggart left this evening without making any statement, and it was said that he had gone to Maxinkuckee. His friends are surprised at the situation, but can offer no explanation.

name nature is now getting even with the weather man. The recent
cold spell suffered m this region at the time when the blossoms first appeared on tho earlier fruit trees, killed all
prospects for a plentiful supply of that fruit. A little coup was planned there
fore by the powers that be. who at once arrayed themselves on the side of the inhabitants of this earth who take pleasure in the consumption of fruit. In short the story of the affair is that many of the trees whose blossoms were
killed by frost in the earlier part of
the year are again de-eked in white.
This is a most unusual occurance and makes the conditions which have ex
isted this year still more peculiar. A case of the second effort of trees to produce fruit is that of a pear tree

Went Into Cahoots with
Burglar to Steal His Own Chickens.
Postmaster Gostlin used to own
chickens. Today you couldn't even find a feather on the premises and thereby
hangs a tale. It appears that Mrs. Gostlin finding it difficult to secure
fresh eggs in market determined to
get some chickens of her own and go out and gather the eggs before they
were too ripe.
Mr. Gostlin is interested in horses
and although he frowned on the idea
of a chicken farm lie said nothing for
the reason that he thought his wife
would soon get tired ot taking care of
the birds and that perhaps there would
be several good chicken dinners in the deal bye and bye.
Mr. Gostlin has one of the most at
tractive yards in Home wood and takes
a great deal or pride in its appearance
and so when the chickens became over
industrious in digging up his ilower
beds he determined to take some drastic measures to get rid of the
pests.

of Mrs. Gostlin the chickens disap

It happened. however, that Mrs.
Gostlin had occasion, one day, to drive
over m West Hammond to secure a
wash woman and as she was passing the home of one of the residents of the village she noticed a chicken that had
a surprisingly laminar jook.
Closer investigation revealed the fact
that it had one of its toes missing and
Mrs. Gostlin remembered that one of her chickens had its toe frozen off during the past winter.
There was but one conclusion and
she jumped at it. The pole had stolen her chickens and she was determined to have him arrested. She drove to the
police station in West Hammond and called upon one of the officers to compell the return of her property.
The officer obeyed, the Pole was
taken into custody but not booked. He is said to have explained in excited Polish that he had been requested byMr. Gostlin to steal the chickens and

Moorish Idea of Feminine Beauty. The amiability of Moorish women strikes me greatly, says a writer In tho National Review. I visited some the other day, and they were full of kindly interest. They liked my fair hair, they liked my clothes; one old crono suggested how lovely I should be wero I to paint my cheeks a brilliant red, stain my under lips coal black, adding three black vertical lines on my fore-.-head and one in the middle of my chin, also stain my teeth with walnut juice, my hands with henna! I therefore rubbed my cheek3 with my handkerchief till they turned crimson; that amused them highly, and they laughed and said I needed no paint, bat danced henna and blacking!

Milk Peddler's Trick. "Of course, in this city," said n Philadelphia milk inspector, "the milk is pure, but I've been in somo towns where impure milk dealers have played some funny dodges on me. You know how I work? Sneak along the streets, hold up a milkman, and take a sample right out of the can? Well, it has been a common thing when a milkman has known me by
sight for him to pretend to trip on seeing me coming, fall headlong and upset his can of milk all ever the pavement. Yes, that trick worked the first time, and I wasted a lot of pity on the man that played it."
