A Howling Success, Screaming Farce, is the Comment.
Marshal Toung has commenced the spring work of grading the town roads and if ?.s good a job could be done on the block paving as it done on the dirt roads, traveling on them would be materially helped. The recent rains have made the block paving loom up in its worst possible light, and it certaintly ought to be an incentive to a call for Improvement. It is reported that Attorney Frank Pattee has purchased the Wachter homestead on Main street, which was advertised for sale recently, and will make considerable improvements on the same and use it for a residence in the future. The consideration is not known. The property is one of the choice locations in Crown Point and has all the impromevents. Several Chicago automobiles made
the run to Crown Point and over the
course of the raoes yesterday. Every
body witnesses many out-of-town machines here and nearly all of them make the trip to see the site of the
big races next June.
So far no arrests have been made
for violations of the rectn speed order,
but it is noticed that quite a little
slowing up has been done by the driv
ers of machines while passing through
town. . "
The Woman's Study club of this place
invade Hammond today about twenty strong, where they will be guests and entertained by the Hammond Women's club. Mrs. J. Frank Meeker and Mrs. Scheddell are on the program for addresses. The postponed Easter dance given at Central Music hall last evening, drew a better crowd than on Monday evening, although the weather was about as Inclement.

M. club will meet at the home of Miss Lindie Wells, one week from tonight. It was reported here yesterday that the Gary bridge was washed away, but it could not be verified.

The tambos were represented by George Gray, Vincent James, Ed Girard and Hoyt Ogram.
The bones were: Ed. Gray, Charles Kleiber, Roy Welsby and C. Moore. Jack O'Keefe occupied the seat of
honor, he being the interlocutor, and many were the jokes in which Whiting people were victims. On the stage were also six other young men, who did their share In causing the people's side to ache. The program opened with an opening chorus by the minstrels, "Shine on
