Evers got all the honors and all the gifts, for the John J. Evers association the Broilers' club, who broiled in a temperature of 90 degrees, and 3,000 other spectators went wild over him and lavished gifts and flowers upon him. All he had to do was to share in their drubbing. WHITE SOX TAKE ANOTHEE. , For a few minutes yesterday'it looked aa though another crimp would be put into the winning streak of the white sox, but early appearances were all to the bad. The Bostons went In and knocked Moxle Manuel off his perch in jig time and started to shake up Nick Altrock, who relieved Mox, but the three runs they scored in the opening round' were al they could make, while the sox went on and banged out seven. In piling up their total the leaders pried Pitcher Cicotte away from his job and bruised Burchell pretty had when the southpaw tried to stay the hands of his pard's slayers. HAMMOND GRAYS WIN TWO.

Packie McFarland and Freddie Walsh are keeping up their work here, and McFarland is said to be about 136 pounds in weight He is doing his work leisurely and addicts himself to road work rather than to sparring. Little betting Is reported on the go, but it is thought that McFarland will be at much lower odds at the ringside than the 9 to 10' which is now offered. FINAL DETAILS FOR BOUT. Melbourne, Australia.June 21.- Final arrangements have been completed for the match between Bill Lang of this city and Tommy Burns. The bout is to be held the same week the fleet is here. The match with Squires may be set for Sydney later. OUTLOOK NOT ENCOURAGING. New Tork, June 21. Although two big stakes are carded to be run the present week the outlook for the racing game in the east is far from encouraging. Even the Injunction issued by Justice Bischoff, which prohibits the police breaking up orderly gatherings at the course, has not resulted in a hopeful condition for the bookmakers. CROWN -POINT BEATEN. Crown Point, Ind., June 22. (Special.) The ball game yesterday between the Chicago Hub Clothing house team and the local aggregation proved to be somewhat of a fiasco, our boys making numerous errors and handing the game to the visiting team by a score of 9 to 1. Henning received poor support and ought to have won on his own merits, being responsible for striking out sixteen ot the opposing team's men. A good sized crowd watched the game. The Crown Point team shows an appreciable lack of practice in field and team work. MOTORCYCLISTS GO THROUGH. Crown Point, Ind., June 22. (Special.) Members of the Chicago motorcycle club, about thirty strong, ran into town yesterday by way of Hobart. They were here to look over the county fair ground track with a view to procuring same providing itw as suitable for their purposes and they could make arrangements with the commissioners to hold a number of races they have in, view. Nothing definite was decided yesterday, but Crown Pointers may be able to witness some thrilling races on that track in the future, providing the club's plans carry ou ;

DYER BEATEH BY

H11IID TEAM Knights of Columbus Brings Home the Bacon From St. J ohn Township. THEY PLAY A FINE GAME Farmer Boys Plug Up With Chica go Men But Oh, No It Didn't Do Any Good! The K. C.'s brought home to Ham mond another slice of the bacon when they defeated the Dyer baseball team at Dyer yesterday by a score of 10 to 7. The scores on each side speak for the game, showing that there was enough action on both sides. It was, however, not until in the fourth inning that the lodge men had anything like a bulge on the railroaders and up to that time the home men had not only crowded the Ham- j mondltes in a very uncomfortable way but put in a little steam roller action. In the third lnlng the score stood 4 to 1 in Dyer's favor, and Bill Humpfer. the K. C. pitcher, who was out of angles and curves from the bef ginning began to goto pieces. Dyer Ping with Chicago Men. Dyer was supplied with three Chicago men who played under the Dyer colors. Garble, a Windy City product who was tossing the ball for the Dyers, had a fairly good ball but . he was seemingly easy to hit, but the K. C.'s were bound to soak the ball in Plum creek with the result that they created the only breeze that blew over the heated diamond. Humpfer went out in the fourth Inning and young Charley Gainer took his place. The entrance of the little Whiting lad into the box changed the luck of the K. C.'s. Gainer would have held the homers to their four runs, but in the eighth inning when a doubtful fly over the third base line was allowed as fair by the K. C.'s after the umpire had pronounced it foul, brought in three runs. Dyer of course, set up a howl like so many Indians and the K. C.'s having gained a similar decision under similar circumstances in the first half of the Inning, the visitors were generous about it and gave the Dyers the benefit of the doubt. "Hoopy" W an the Candy. The umpiring was good, taken in all, the redoubtable 'Hoopy" Heiser of Hammond giving a bunch of decisions that were never questioned on either side. Only once was the decision of the Dyer umpire questioned. This was in the eighth inning when he called out Humpfer on home base. The lineup, for both teams was as follows: K. C. Dyer. Gainer catcher., ....Gallagher Humpfer .pitcher Garrle Gainer-Half man . .lb r...Shafer Carroll second base Burch Hoftman-Schulte. .3b Glover Gainer short stop Ambrey Eder rijsrht field Keilmin Dibos center field Laveh Carroll left field Mahoney The score by innings was as follows: K. C 0 1 0 4 0 0 0 5 0 10 Dyer 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 3 0 7 Dyer will play St. John Sunday at Dyer. The K. C.'s have not yet scheduled a game. LOWELL WINS AM Crack Team From South of County Wins Very Ragged GameLowell, Ind., June 22. (Special) Loweil defeated Momence at Momence for the second time this season by the score of 7 to 5. Both teams played ragged ball and both had one bad inning, Jarvis of Momence was taken out of the box in the fourth ining, Stevens replacing him. Irwin of Lowell had seven strike-outs. The score by innings: Momence ....01300100 0 5 5 10 Lowell 0 0 0 6 0 0 1 0 07 7 7 Batteries Momence, Hess, Jarvis, Stevens. Lowell, Yates, Irwin, Bases on balls off Jarvis one of Irwin, one struck out by Stevens, three by Irwin seven. Double plays Jarvis-Haslett-Stevens. Umpire Abbott of Momence. MEET WITH TWO DEFEATS. The Gary Commercials, which are on their tour of the middle western states, met with two defeats yesterday at the hands of the Muscatine, Iowa, team. The score of the first game was Gary 5, Muscatine, 6, and of the second, Gary 4 and Muscatine 6. The next game which will be played by the Gary team is with the Elizabeth, Iowa, team. GARY DEFEATS NEW CHICAGO, The Gary baseball club played the team at New Chicago yesterday and defeated them by the score of 6 to 0 Herman, the Gary pitcher, was in fine form and pitched a no hit game. The Gary team got fifteen hits from the New Chicago pitcher. Crowley, who caugnt for Gary, also played an excellent game. - A good sized crowd watched the contest. BLACK OAKS DEFEATED. The Gary Cubs defeated the Black Oaks by the Bcore of 5 to 1 on the Cubs' grounds in Gary. The feature of the game was the hitting of Tyler, who plays on the Cubs' team. The pitching of Stanton was also good mere was a crowd of 400 who saw the game. The Cubs secured fifteen hits off the Black Oak pitcher and the Black Oaks got three hits off the Cubs,

La Vendors and Hammond Hubs Clash at Harrison Park Yesterday. The game at Hubbards park yesterday between the Hammond Hubs and the La Vendors of Whiting was one of continual wrangling, it is understood that the Whiting aggregation came over with the expectation of playing the Hubs o their feet, and it Is a conceeded fact that if the game was played the Hubs would have surely ?arae off the field victors, with the score 4 to 2 against them, in the first part of the sixth inning, and two men on the bases, with no one gone, Love of the Hubs tried for home on a bunt laid down by Welty, Whiting's third baseman played for home but by a pretty slide through the La Vendors catchers legs, Love was called safe. Then the most disgrace ful scenes ever enacted at a game of ball were commenced, Addler, the second baseman of the Whiting team Walked to the umpire, who was stand ing behind the pitcher, with his back turned and deliberately struck him blow under the left eye, the umpire s hands were seized by two Whiting hoodlums, thereby making him without defense. It was not Addler's first offense as his dirty ball playing was noticed more than once through the sixth inning of the game, by his con tinual blocking of the Hubs on bases and by stepping on the players of the Hubs. The game could have geen played the entire nine innings if the crowd would have kept off the diamond, but the majority of the fans were against the Hubs who would have played their usual sportsman-like game if allowed to do so. As the Hubs have not scheduled a game for the 28th, it can not yet be anounced but they will no doubt have a game for that date. Ill ANOTHER VICTORY Toleston Nine Beats Wheeler and Bill Kunert is Happy Again. Bill Kunert's Toleston baseballe team won another victory yesterday when the nine journeyed to Wheeler and defeated the aggregation from that city by the score of 7 to 2. It was a walk away for the Toleston boys and the game was witnessed by a large crowd of Wheeler baseball fans. The batteries for Toleston were: Clem, pitcher; D. Curin, catcher, and for Wheeler, T. Gott, ptcher; T. Burge, catcher. Toleston won the game in the third inning it scored five runs and the rest of its scores were made in the seventh when two runs " were brought in. Wheeler made one run in the fifth in ning and one in the seventh and that was as far as they got. Wheeler got but six hits off Clem while the Toleston boys found Burge for 15 hits. Clem struck out lb men and Burge struck out 11. Toleston made one error and Wheeler 6. Burge and Barns were the umpires and tne game lasted one hour and forty-five minutes. HARBOR NINE INNER Joe Long's Team of Ham mond Nosed Out in Hot Contest. Indiana Harbor, June 22. (Special.) Another one of those enthusiasminspiring games took place yesterday afternoon on the new Indiana Harbor grounds. The score was 4 to 1 in favor of Indiana Harbor. The. Joe Long team of Hammond was the opposing nine and they brought about 300 Hammond admirers and Just about the same number of dollars. The admirers returned to Hammond in the evening but the dollars missed the car and probably never will get home unless the Hammondites bring over a better team and a few new baseball tricks. All of the local's scores were made in the second inning on a bunching of hits by the home team and errors and bases on balls by the visitors. The Joe Longs made their solitary score In the ninth on a hit, two stolen bases and a dead ball. The game was a pitcher's battle in which Ford of Indiana Harbor had something on Walker of the Joe Longs. The home man allowed but two safe hits during the afternoon and struck out fifteen of the opposing batsmen, but was generous in his gift of bases, passing four men to first. Walker, however, was stingy. He only let one man walk and allowed but three hits, one of which was Sternberg's two bagger that brought in two men. He struck out five. Incidentally Ford struck the side out in one, two three order in the eighth. Koehler, left fielder of the Hammond team, pulled off the star fielding stunt of the day in the fourth inning by hanging onto the ball after a tremendously long run and then falling down. The new grounds were in good condition, particularly the infield. Hughes, the Indiana Harbor umpire, is a little sore at the way the crowd pressed in and made close decisions hard to get accurately. About 1,000 people in all saw the game. Frank Barker is the leader of a rooters' club that entertained the crowd with songs. The lineup was as follows: Indiana Harbor Merley, rf; Nellis, 3b; Ford, p; Galvin, c; Sternburg, 2b; Erlcson, If; Barney, sa; Nyland, lb. Joe Longs Vonish, c; McMaw, 3b; Dunsing, ss; Koenig, 2b; Ketchell, lb; Buhlng cf; Koehler, rf; Johnson, If; Walker, p. Umpires Hughes, Buhring for Hammond.

Specvial to The Times Whiting, June 22. The fourth annual reunion of the Whiting High School Alumni association which was held Saturday evening, when the members of the association, including representatives of the board of education, Superintendent John C. Hall and wife, representatives of the high school faculty, graduates of the Incoming class and several questions numbering in all fifty-two persons, gathered at O'Keefe's European hotel in One Hundt-ad and Nineteenth street and spent an evening of rare enjoyment. A Gala Event. The event was indeed a gala affair, by reason of the hearty reception of the sweet young girl graduates and gallant young knights, upon the threshhold of life's activities, the renewal of friendships" among the alumni of the alma mater and the perfect arrangement of all details by the several committees. . The event brilliantly culminated the series of social functions which have marked the close of the school life of the clas3 of 1908, and the many features made it one of the most delightful reunions in the history of this memory reviving association. Deautiful Decoration. The. hotel was as beautifully and artistically decorated with flowers and foliage American flags and the high school colors, moss green and white. The long table in its snowey whiteness was decorated with carnations, ferns and daisies. The place cards and menue cards were both hand painted with forget me nots, they being the class flower. This banquet was faultlessly served by Mr. O'Keefe and his experienced corps of waitresses, in six ccurse, the menu being as follows: Chilled Fruit Salted Nuts Olives Inltenne Veal Loaf Creole, a la Sauce Lady Washington Rolls Combination Salad French Dressing Buttered Wafers Pistachio Cream A la Alumni Cake Chocolate Cake Cafe au Lalt After partaking of the feast the remainder of the evening was spent in giving toasts several proving to be of exceptional merit. C. E. Klose Toaitmaiirr, Chas. R. Klose acted as toastmaster. In Mr. Klose we have both a representative of the Whiting high school, he graduating with the class of 1900, and also a member of the board of education he acting in the capacity of secretary-treasurer of that body. He presided in a capable manner during the evening Introducing each speaker in a humorous and witty manner Miss Mabel O' Hara '05 and president of the association gave an address of welcome. Her greeting was happy and a most cordial welcome was extended to both the graduates and the guests. Class President Speaks. Russell F. Smith, president of the '08 class, gave the response to the president's address. Miss Irene Putnam '06, who is at present a student at Valparaiso university represented her class, using as her subject "Environments." The next twasts on the pragram was "Goodfellowship." The representative not being present, Roy Green '04, was called upon to respond extemporaneously. Mr. Green is one of the best orators that Whiting high school has ever produced. He has the distinction of carrying home the first gold medal which was ever awarded in the Lake county oratorical contest, which was held in the Hammond high school auditorium several years ago. He is now a rising young law student at Ann Arbor university . He handled the subject "Goodfellowship" in entertaining manner, giving several amusing stories in connection with it. Mr. Crlpllver Absent. As Chas. Cripliver 02, who is at present in Guthrie, Okla., found it impossible to be present, Junior Swartz '04 responded to his toast "Schol Spirit," after which he took up the toast which had been assigned to him "Oratory In the High School." Mr. Swartz gave a lengthy discussion of this important subject and showed the advantage of having a course in oratory as well as a course in rhetoric. His arguments were very convincing and he said it should be necessary for each pupil to appear at least once & month before the rest of the school and all friends or parents of the school. instead of having a certain few train for the annual oratorical contests as has been customary and that the reg ular credit should be given for this course as well as for rhetoric. Important Resolution. All present were much moved by Mr. Swartz's sugestion and the toastmaster, Mr. Klose passed a resolution and pre sented it to Prof Hall, that steps be taken with a view to having a course of oratory in our high school for which a regular credit will be given. Prof, Hall also heemed much in favor of the idea and the matter will in all prob abilities be taken up at once. James ' Judson '03, was the next to appear using as his subject "The Uni versity After the Ingh School." Mr. Judson responded with a few happily delivered remarks and said the subject was beyond him and suggested that John Schaub, who spent one year at

Notre Dame university and is now a student at Ann Arbor responded, Mr. Schaub On University Courses. Mr. Schaub in turn took up the subject, showing in several ways by taking a university course after the high school course. Roy Tllton 04, and ex-president of the association was next introduced by tbe toastmaster. Mr. Tllton used as his subject "The Leitgeist." The literal translation is the "spirit of the times." The accummulation of money or the chase of the almighty dollar was the staindpoint the subject was taken from and it was discussed to good advantage. Mr. Tilton showed the benefit of education by the wage scale. The man with the high school education can demand higher wages than the common laborer, and the man with the university education demands higher wages than the man with the high school. This toast was well rendered and well received. "Whyr By Clarenee Artman. Clarence Atrman '07, was the next name on the program in answer to the subject "Why?" . . Mr. Artman said, he wondered "why" he hadn't been informed of this before hand, but nevertheless gave a good dis cussion, taking the subject, "Why a college or university education is al most a necessity in this progressive age." The announcement of the next speaker, Superintendent John C. Hall, brough forth hearty applause After his discourse on the "Influence of .the Almuni" he was again applauded for the members then realized that they were imbportant factors in the high school circles of our c'ty. Other Members Speak. Several of the other members of the association were then called upon for short talks. Dr. Sol M. Goldberger '04, recently graduated from the P. and S. college, and J. Roy Morrison '04, gave talks. Mr. Morrison was the organizer of the association in '05. During the dis course Mr. Morrison then suggested that Chas. E. Miller, who is attending Purdue universly be heard from. Gymnasium Suggested. The talk several times has been to the effect that we needed a gymnasium badly. Mr. Miller then followed up this sub ject by telling of the memorial "gym" which is being erected at Purdue in memory of the football students who lost their lives in a railroad wreck, while goln gto Indianapolis for a game. He explained the way it was being erected and said he thought Whiting should erect a gymnasium by all means on the same plan. A resolution was then passed by the president to the effect that the Alumni association would do all within its power to assist in getting a "gym" which is above all a necessity. Speaks for the Guests. Frank MacPherson was called up to represent the guests. Mr. McPherson said it was the first speech he had ever made, but it was a good begin ning. Miss Jessie M. Curtis, who is attending the Western at Oxford, O., was next called up on, but Instead of the expected toast. Miss Curtis moved that the gathering adjourn, which was seconded as it was then 11:30. they all feeling that much good had been accomplished by thi3 gathering. MANY ATTEND FUNERAL OF JOHN C.

BIG POSSE CAPTURES BANDITS (Continued from page 1.) work, and this was probably one of their first attempts. The fact that they had gone no farther than Lake Station by the time they were caught, makes It appear as If they did not understand the work. The way in which they returned to the village after they had passed through also showed their poor Judgment. Both men have been identified as having worked about Gary for several months. They story which they tell ia that they were driving around in the country looking for work and having had the horses out so long were afraid to return with them, fearing the liverymen, would have them arrested. The men were taken to Crown Point last night and turned over to Sheriff F. S. Carter. MORE SPORTINi NEWS IN THE TIMES THAN IN ALL OTHERS PUT TOGETHER,
