BLACK TIES A FAD OF THE SUMMER. So smart are black neckties this summer that it is almost impossible to buy a black Windsor tie in any of the shops. Even the boys' counters have been depleted. These black ties are run through heavy Irish lace collars and stocks in various ways. Sometimes the tops of turnover lace collars are turned over the black tie and a pert bow tied in front. In this instance a bow of black taffeta ribbon is used with a Puritan collar of tucked batiste and Irish lace, the ribbon passing through openings in the collar.

HAMMOND LADS HAVE BULLY TIME AT "BOY CITY." (Continued from Page 1.) accommodate 2,000 to 3,000 boys, and fine enough to attract them from all over the country. After considering many sites, they at length settled on what was known as the "Old Indian Camp Ground," on the shore of Pine lake. Thi3 is about half a mile from the Charlevoix depot, and the Pere Marquette railroad has a small station almost at the city gates. Having picked the grounds, the association raised several thousand dollars and secured a five years' lease and an option on 140 acres, and this spring sow the erection of the permanent buildings. The offices of the mayor Edgar Crumpacker of Hammond. Ind city clerk and treasurer, together with the bank and postoffice, are in a pretty little rustic building at the head or the main street. The banker. George (."router, is a 17-year-old Charlevoix boy. He runs his bank all alone and will have the handling of several thousand dol-

lars by the end of the season. Down the street from the city hall to the lake, are lined the other municipal buildings. There is a grocery store, refreshment hall, a restaurant, where excellent meals are served; a newspaper

oince. camera dark room, souvenir store and a house for the lady visitors. Off to one side Is a great circus tent In which are given the Chautauqua programa, which are a regular feature of the camp. Every Sunday, Wednesday and Saturday evening this tent la filled with the boys and people from neighboring resorts, for the entertainments are among the best on the road. At the opening. July 25, over 2,000 people assembled to listen to the program. In another tent a moving picture machine has been installed to entertain the boys in the evening. Boy City also has its own water and light plants, the latter being an old road roller connected to a dynamo. When one of the boys, with Judge Brown first, saw this contrivance he gave vent to a snort of derision. "What more do you want?" asked the judge, "its got an engine hasn't it?" The care of all these buildings and streets is in the hands of the boy members of the board of public works, and to their credit be it said that they keep the town looking well. The city is made up of a number of camps, each coming as a party with its own leader, generally a Y. M. C. A. man or a Sunday school teacher. There is also one general camp under the leadership of Charles B. Hahn, organizer of Boyville and a prominent workers among boys. This is for boys coming alone. Each camp forms a ward, and elects its own alderman to represent it on the city council, which governs the town. On the advisory board, In addition to Judge Brown and Mr. Hahn, are several other prominent men. Dr. J. C. Folsom, professor of physical training in the University of Wisconsin, is the athletic director of the camp. Professor E. H. Reynolds of the Boy City college, St. Louis, Mo., has charga of the educational work, and H. II. Fuller superintendent of public schools of East joruan, Mich., is the entertainment director. Professor L. P. Christensen of Salt Lake City is musical director and leader of the Manistee Zouave Juvenile band, which plays daily for the boys. William B. Stout (Jack Knife) of the St. Paul Dispatch, is the manual training and arts and crafts director. On the first Wednesday after the camp opened, the boys held their municipal elections. Two parties appeared in the field, one wishing aquatic sports to be given the most official attention and the other favoring land sports. Each party had its banners, cards, badges and speakers and went right after the voters. When the smoke blew away, it was found that the land party had the mayor and one member of the board of public works, and the water party, they object to being called the wets, had the rest. Edgar Crumpacker, son of Judge Crumpacker, Hammond, Ind., and nephew of Congressman Crumpacker, was chosen mayor by a majority of 23. The other officers are, clerk, AVright; treasurer, Thompsonboard of public works, Feasdale, Trumbull and Coldwater. After the election was over, Governor Harmon of Ohio gave the boys a short, but very Interesting talk, on the ned of boys becoming good citizens. In presenting Governor Harmon, Judge Mayne referred to him as "perhaps our next president.' For two weeks more Boy City will be an active, prosperous community, and then, the three weelfs allotted to it each year being over, the boys will follow the example of those old Arabs, who always seem to get in at the end of every camping party, an Boy City will be quiet for a year. (Speclal to The Times.) East Chicago, Aug. 7. Rumors of a strike of laborers in the busheling mill at the Republic have been rife for the p?st couple of days, but the trouble has blown over and all danger now averted. The company has promsed a raise of a cent an hour to the dissatisfied working men and this information being conveyed to the men, they were content to return to their posts. The laborers learned of the fact that wages at Grasselli and the Interstate had been Increased to 17 cents an hour, while they were getting only 16 cents. It was impossible for the local authorities at the mill to give the desired increase, but communication was at once entered into with headquarters at Pittsburg and word returned that the men could have what they asked, the raise to take effect within a few days. Incidentally comes the announcement, that Burton Clapper, George Clapper and James Cadman, all oldtime heaters at the mill, have resigned their position with the Republic, the two former to go to work at the rolling mill in Pullman. while Mr. Cadman will take a position at the Interstate. George Clapper lives in Pullman, but Burton will continue to reside in East Chicago. FurnlMilng homes with us Is a specialty, not a side line; four floors of furniture.
