The letter states that the. property is given to the city in consideration of the $50,000 for the building by Mr. Carnegie and $5,000 per year by the city for the maintenance of the building and library. The choice of the location gives general satisfaction for, being Immediately across from the Y. M. C. A. building, makes a fine group of public buildings. Now that the location has been procured nothing remains to be done but to push the work as rapidly as possible to completion. Gary will probably have the library building completed long before the Y.

LaVendor Cigars are pronounced xceptlonally goo by all smokers.

Mark the Marquette Mark; It's Your Protection. Marquette cement is so much better than all the rest. Pure rock gives it a backbone; best under every test, no matter where it is used, above or below ground, in a tunnel, in a caisson, in the water itself, as a dam, as a wall or a building, on the farm, as a pavement, will endure through eternity.

BICYCLE THEFTS COHTIMABnTED messenger Who Depends on Wheel for Livelihood Robbd Last Night. The stealing of bicycles in Hammond is becoming nearly an everyday occurence. The latest victim is Oswald Zimmerman the little messenger boy in the Western Union office, who relies on his wheel for efficiency as a messenger. The wheel was his personal property, and the loss is correspondingly large. The wheel was stolen from in front of the Hammond building with the owner of it probably not more than fifteen feet away. A stolen whtel was reported to the police yesterday,, the wheel having been the property of John Pohlplatz. In most cases the thief manages to make his get away before the owner is aware of the theft. The many items that have appeared in the local papers about stolen wheels it is thought would serve as a warning to the owners to lock their wheels. Still when it is eon. sidered that an owner leaves his wheel at the curb to go into a place and with the expectation to return again in a few minutes, he can hardly be asked to lock his wheel, but under the present conditions this method becomes almost imperative. The police realize the seriousness of the situation, but thus far have been unable to catch any members of the gang which is operating in Hammond, although they have been successful in capturing a number of fellows who did not belong to this gang. HAMMOND BUSY. H. S. Boys Will Try Hard to Capture Meet!; The members of the track team of the Hammond high school have been training as though their lives depend upon it. They realize that the coming meeting between the schools of Lake county will be the most exciting of the season, and they are going to do their level best to win the meet. Walter Kennedy, one of the members of the team, stated today that he believed Hammond has a fighting chance to win and that evry effort would be made to capture the meet.
