FROM NEIGHBORING TOWN AND CITY
CROWN POINT NEWS
Much Depends on This. The building contractors complain that quite a few of the people who intend to build houses the coming summer have postponed operations on account of the unsettled attitude of the labor unions, claiming that as things stand now a contractor has to ask the topmost price, demanded as the union scale, while probably he will only be compelled to pay a much lower price but in order to protect himself from a probable loss, 1 should the men demand a union scale, he has to figure union wages throughout the whole contract. Thus the burden of It falling necessarily on the . builder. If the trades are wise they will either form a union and agree on a scale of wages, or reject the whole pan and work as they have heretofore, each man getting what he is really worth to the contractor with steady work and good living . wages. It is said that many residences will be erected here the coming summer if the price of labor does not go beyond the reach of the builders pocketbook, and the question of a building activity or a dull season In thatl ine. rests wholly with the men who are employed in the construction thereof.
Has a New Eecord. The Clerk's office has discarded its old style marriage record and In its place has a new and labor-saving record. In times past the record has been so made up. that it contained a complete copy of the original license, the date of the return made by the minister or Justice and a copy of the return all duly certified to by the clerk. In the case of several hundred licenses this meant a great expense of time and labor. In the new form now in use for the first time, the names of the contracting parties, the copy of the return and a reference to the number and book of the application is all that Is necessary. This makes the record perfect, and it is very easy to locate any desired parties, and yet the record is much simpler and easier to keep.
Maack Gets Charlton House. Miss Charlton will leave next week for a two years' visit with her relatives In England. She will take her charges with her and expects to have the mtreated by the physicians of that country. Albert Maack, county treasurer, and his family will occupy the Charlton home during her absence.
A Crown Point man, whose phone number we will give as "onety two" recently had some trouble getting a connection at the central office. Somewhat "miffed' over the affair he hung up the receiver and pondered deeply over the matter. Finally a bright idea struck him and the following conversation which took place will explain the point of the story. "Hello, central! Give me "So. onetytwo." Operator snaps out: "Well, you've got it." C. P. Man "Marvelous; perfectly marvelous. Are you really sure you gave me the right number? I want onety-two." Operator, agatin "Well, you've got
it." C. P. Man "Eureka! I'll get it patented. A sure way of getting immediate connection." It Is rumored that storm is brewing In society circles here which bids fair to rend that structure In twain. Mayhap It will blow over, which procedure will be best for all concerned. Julius Howland made a business trip to Chicago yesterday. He has abandoned the idea of Investing in an outfit to clean houses by the "suction" method used In our larger cities, claiming that Crown Point is too small and the people are not enough Interested to insure the investment as being profitable. - .

Mr. and Mrs. Hervey Brannan are the proud parents of a baby boy, born Wednesday., It is reported that quiet a number of persons residing on Arch street have been frightened of late by a "Jack the Peeper." Not many nights ago some pretty bold moves were executed from that quarter, "that" if caught might land some one behind the bars for quite a time. There has been curiosity enough' manifested by a "person"
or "persons" as to what their neighbors were doing or saying, and falling to obtain the desired information othrrwise, make good the veil of night for a protector and turn "Jack the Peeper." The people of Arch street extend an open invitation for all those wishing inside information to come in and all will be treated with respect, premises that don't belong to them, might get heated a little warmer. A gossip Is bad enough in a neighborhood but deliver us from further persecution. Some of the farmers have begun their spring work of sowing and preparing their fields for the future crops of corn. The city people, have tenderly turned the sod and proceeded to distribute the seeds of many vegetables which later will please the appetite of many a weary urchin. Get a dog.
