EAST CHICAGO. The Busy Bee Social clup are actively preparing for their carnival and social to be held in I. O. O. F. hall on next Friday evening, Oct. 30. The club will have a fortune-telling booth, candy and flower booths, as well as the serving of a dainty luncheon. The tickets are being disposed of rapidly, and the members predict a splendid success as the culmination of their best efforts in this direction. T. R. Lall of the Trio cigar store was at the Hammosd roller rink last evening. Messrs. Leo Rice and Clem Costur will visit friends in Gary Sunday afternoon, also attending the large Gary skating rink. Rev. F. H. Brown of the local Congregational church was a Michigan City visitor yesterday, making the trip over the C, L. S. & S. B. line. The services at the East Chicago Congregational church on Magoun av
enue will be under the direction of
the pastor, Rev. F. H. Brown, at both the morning and evening sessions to
morrow. Special music has been ar
ranged by the choir, in addition to
solos by the members, and a large
crowd is desired by the . pastor.
The choir received a pleasant sur
fise last evening when Mrs. George
Lewis, its president, reported that
the choir had been made the recipient of a gift of $25 for the purchase of new music. The name of the donor is not known, even Mrs. Lewis declaring that
the amount had been sent to her with
out any means of identifying the
sender. The cheerful donor, however, has the sincere thanks of the entire
choir, and is assured through The Times that the money will prove a
profitable investment.
Tomorrow will be rally day for the First M. E. church, and Rev. J. H.
Palmer has invited all members of the
church and Sunday school to lend their presence to the occasion. A special program has been arranged for the Sunday school choir, in which members
of the school will participate. The pastor will occupy the pulpit at both morning and evening services, and has promised to handlo the themes "Exploration Before Reconstruction," and

NOETHWESTEKN BACK IN FOLD
Although Chicago, Minnesota and Wisconsin, the three contenders for the western championship, will be Idle today, there is a big interest In the Evanston field. The game today will mark the reappearance of the purples in the football arena after two years of inactivity. Just how Northwestern will perform is is a matter of great uncertainty, as not a single player has ever competed in an intercollegiate game. Michigan takes on its old-time foe Ohio State University, at Columbus. The wolverines have not shown any special strenght to date, but are likely to come back strongly, now that their captain, Schultz and the rest of the veterans will be in the lineup, Ohio has generally played Michigan a hard contest, and this season is expected to be no exception to the rule.
