purposes of the organization, said:
"There Iihh been so much difference
of opinion as to the fees to be charged
by clerks and what part belongs to the county anil what part to the clerks that
it was deemed advisable to perfect an
organization to devise ways and means
to bring about a uniformity of charges and to determine what fees the clerks may legally claim as their own."

EDITOR SEES A SHEATH GOWN. A directoire gown, the first to mak
its apiearanee in this city, was seen
here this afternoon while the steamer
Roosevelt was in port. The wearer was
I a beautiful young woman and those
who were observant enough declare that the new sensation Is not half as had as painted in the society papers.
and say that a sheath gown Is merely
an oddity to which the people would soon become accustomed, should they
be generally worn. The gown worn here today was a beautiful conception
of a gray mingled with the soft folds
of silk. Open to the knee the slit in
the skirt revealed gray lace hosiery, aided in appearance greatly through
the wearing of the silk tights, which made the sheath skirt hang without a wrinkle. Shoes of gray completed a most harmonious appearance, says the Michigan City Dispatch.
The young lady who appeared in the
new Parisian gown in this city is said to be an actress. During her stay here she attracted very little attention, and
few knew of the gown's appearance here. There has been a great deal of talk about the sensations created by women wearing the new style of gowns, not only in Paris, but In this country, and the majority of these reports are great exaggerated. The skirt worn with this style of gown, being of soft clinging material necessarily fits the form more or less
tightly, hut not more so than others that met with approval heretofore. The
new directoire gown onvolved originally from the Grecian dress, and the em
pire is a still further modification of it,
and in the new gown is great simplicity,
of which we hear so much at the pres
ent time.

LODGE WORK
Tomorrow being the last Thursday of the month, Eiks hold their onlymeeting for this month. While thero are several applications there will bu no degree work, as the weather is considered to be too hot for anything elsi than just routine work.
The city officials of East Chicago, who have been in attendance at the hearing before Judge Virgil S. Reiter, In chambers, at which Colonel Redmond D. Walsh is seeking to have the city officials permanently restrained from entering Into a contract for the purchase of furniture for the city hall on the grounds that there has been collusion between the parties to the contract and irregularity in the manner of making the purchase, are elated today over the fact that D. J. Moran, the attorney for Mr. Walsh, admitted in open court that the charges of collusion and graft could not be substantiated. Case Concluded Today.
The case was heard in chambers this morning and this admission on the part of the attorney for the plaintiff now limits the case to the proof of the allegation that the contract was let irregularly. This proposition was argued out this morning in a spirited manner and will tie the only proposition upon which Colonel Walsh and the taxpayers base their hope for a re
straining order. The history of the case, in brief, is as follows: The city councilmen of
East Chicago, a city of the fifth class.
acted in the dual capacity of a council and a board of public works, au
thorized itself by resolution to enter
into a contract with the A. H. An
drews company for the' purchase of
furnishings for the new city hall at the contract price of $3,000. Bids were received as follows: Wollaeger & Co., $7,203 (bid No. 1): $6,763 (bid No. 2). Derby Desk Co., $7,09.00, Macy Co., $S,27S,35, and A. H. Andrews Co., $9,000. Files Complaint In Court. Colonel R. D. Walsh filed a complaint in the Iake superior court in which he, representing himself and other taxpayers of the city of East Chicago, made the following allegations: Are Many Allegations.
1. The city councilmen, under their contract, have the right to add to or cut out any piece of furniture at the
price agreed upon.
2. No money has been appropriated
by ordinance and no provision has been
made for the payment of the indebtedness. 3. The indebtedness is entirely be
yond and in excess of any existing appropriation for the purpose. 4. No drawings or specifications were prepared describing or fixing the quantity, quality or amount of furnishings and fixtures. J. The bid of Andrews was excessively high. 6. That in the belief there was collusion and fraud on the part of the city officials with tie A. H. Andrews Co. 7. That the contract was let without advertising for bids and unknown
to the general public. S. That the contract is null and void. City Must Advertise For Bids. The arguments this morning were pro and con as to whether the city officials, acting as a council and a board of public works, could enter Into a contract with the A. H. Andrews Co. without going through the regular process which requires that the following steps shall be taken in making appropriations for public Improvements. L Plans and specifications must be prepared. 2. The city must advertise for bids. 3. The bidders must prepare an affidavit declaring there is no collusion
among them to have the contract awarded to any one of them at a price agreed upon. The contention of Attorney Moran and Mr. Walsh is that these necessary legal steps have not been taken and that the contract is therefore null and void.
One cannot help feeling some sympathy for the board of public works because of the trouble they bump into this hot weather In the paving propositions. A sight for sore eyes to see former Bachelor Verne Summers going home these nights with a bundle of Nabisco wafers under one arm and a nice porterhouse under the other.
Tom Meany, formerly of the Hammond Elevator company, thinks he will leave Hammond and take up his abode in Ravenswood. Hammond's loss and Ravenwood's gain. Louis Heintz is the best dust-layer in Hammond. He has Standard oil so far out-distanced that you can't see it with a magnifying glass. Dr. Sharrer will get through telling what a dandy time he had at the Shriner's gathering some time next Christmas. But you can't blame him.
"You bet I'll be out to the shoot next Sunday and the boys will have to shoot better than 74 when I get busy," says Grant Hunter. Grant has been in the habit of spending his Sundays either at Sharpshooters' park or on the river in his launch. "Helli-Heilo" Otto Duelke is back from thcsingerfest and has been working in a "b'lled" short ever since. There were few of the old guard who missed the seasoned morsel of the Coons trial. Wonder how many would
stand their ground if a photographer
were to take a group picture.
Westrumite surely has a bad odor
in Hammond, and it isn't the crude oil
alone either that's nauseating.
With the prevailing hot weather
Judge Jordan's longing for Delhart,
Txeas, ought to be appeased to some
extent.
That Chicago, Lake Shore & South Bend "feeler" ought to tickle the trav
eling public to some extent.
Jacob Schloer, member of the board
of public works, did not resent the denunciation of Westrumite in the Doty street remonstrance, but he does re
sent the last paragraph about "forcing" the pavement. He says he is not built
that way, and everybody who knows him knows he's right.
The Hammond Aerie of Eagles has changed its meeting during the summer months. Instead of holding the meeting on the last Thursday of the month, the only meeting of the month will be held on the first Wednesday of the month. The Eagles gave a splendid picnic last Sunday and are well satisfied with the results.
The Maccabees hold their regular meeting this evening in K. of P. hall.
Eureka camp, Modern Woodmen, holds its regular meeting next Tuesday evening in Huehn's hall. Three candidates are to be initiated at that time after which there will be a social
session. The coming log rolling will also be discussed next Thursdav even
ing.
The Owls hold another busy session
tomorrow evening In the State street
Masonic temple. Several candidates
are to be initiated and the new con
stitution and the by-laws will be gone over. The last national convention re
port will also come up for discussion.
The W. C. O. F. St. Josephs court holds its regular meeting next Wednesday, it being the first Wednesday of the month. One candidate is to be initiated.
John W. Talbot, president of the Order of Owls, has caused attorneys to investigate the reports sent out from Chattanooga, Tenn., to the effect that criminal proceedings would be instituted in the federal court against him by former members of the order for writing letters which are ruled unmailable. The attorneys report that neither has a warrant been issued nor have any charges been filed with the government officers against Mr. Talbot, It is stated that one of the parties expelled from the lodge gave out a newspaper interview objecting to the statement of reasons for revoking the charter of a lodge, and this led to the report that the matter would be taken into the courts.
