WHAT IS IT?

LOWELL. ! The funeral of Wesley Greisel was held at the Christian church Thursday at 2 o'clock. Rev. Dunkleberger preaching h funeral sermon. The remains were placed in the receiving vault to await the completion of the mausoleum now In the course of construction. The departure of Mr. Griesel takes away one of .our pioneer and most respected citizens closely identified with all things conducive and for the'' best interests of ourcommunity. Mr. Griesel was born near Lowell In 1849, and was just a few months past sixty-one years of age when death overtook him. December, 1887, he was united in marriage to Lucinda Pratt, to which union five children two sons and three , daughters were born. In the year 1877 he lost .his first wife by death. He was again united in marriage to Miss Arvllla Sanders. To this union

four sons and four daughters were

born two sons and one daughter dy

ing in infancy. He leaves a wife, four

sons, six daughters, fourteen grand

children, one ' brother and a host of friends to mourn his' death. He united

with the Christian church soon after

the close of the civil war and has lived

a consistent christian ever since. Mr.

Griesei was a true husband, a good fa

ther and a kind and congenial neigh

bor.

Mrs. "Welcome Robinson has received

the sad news announcing the

death of her sister, Mrs. McCaslen. Mrs

McCaslen had only been home a few days from a visit here with Mrs. Robin

son, when she died, and the sympathy of all is extended to her in her sad

bereavement.

Miss Cora Hayden has come home

from the Valparaiso college for her

summer vacation.

, Mrs. Edgar Hayden, W. A. Davis and

S. F. Hayden are improving the appear

ances of their residences with a new

coat of paint

' J. M. Daum has recently remodeled

his stock and hay Barn, making

decided , Improvement In Its appear ance.

Ambridge street will be the name of t'ae most westerly thoroughfare in the city. It will be the fourth street of importance, ranking immediately after Broadway, Fifth and Eleventh avenues. This highway will run from ihe main gate of the American Bridge company plant on the north, to the Wabash railway on the south.

TRAIL ALREADY BLAZED. These eighteen streets paralleling Broadway, with the extensions of

Third, Fourth, Fifth. Sixth, Seventh, Eighth. Ninth, Tenth and Eleventh ave

nues, will make a total of twenty-seven streets in the second division.

Engineers have laid out these streets and workmen are clearing the woods

through which they will pass. Work Is further advanced on Ambridge street

where the grading Is in process. An idea oi tne immensity of the area of ground cleared may be realized, when it Is considered that It covers more

than one-hundred city blocks. .

CONTRACTS ARE LET BY LAND COMPANY. The United States Steel corporation, through its real estate department.

the Gary Land company, has let the contract for improving the eighteen new

streets and the nine extended ones. It has been awarded to the Illinois Improvement & Ballast company, which has done all work of a similar nature

in the first subdivision.

Removing dunes here and filling in marshes thee and clearing- away

tree stumps Is some of te big problems confronting the city builders, but

a great deal of the work has already Deen done, in one place more than 40,000 cubic yards or 1,000 car loads of sand will be required to fill In a slough.

WILL SUBLET CONTRACTS SHORTLY. As the Improvement company is buBy with many vast undertakings in

the steel, bridge, tin plate and sheet steel plants and the coke ovens and

railroad yards It will find It necessary to sublet some of its work. Most

of the cement sidewalks, curbing, . minor sewers and other projects amounting

to hundreds of thousands of dollars will be sublet to other contractors. I

Besides the paving operations there will be. twenty miles of cement sidewalks and curbing laid. Water pipe and gas pipe layings will also bo i operations large In their scope. SEWERAGE SYSTEM UNDER WAY. As exclusively announced In Thursday's issue of the TIMES the sewer contracts for the new subdivisions have already been sublet to Michael Byrnes an experienced contractor in this line. The main sewer will run west from Fillmore street the present western limit street of the first subdivision to Ambridge street and the Grand Calumet river. Main laterals are to be built along alley south, Fifth avenue and laterals diverging from the central sewer will proceed along the alleys of other streets. FIFTH AVENUE EXTENSION FIRST. Af fifth avenue is to be the principal business street In this section of the city the work of completing it from Us present western terminus, Fillmore street, to Ambridge street will be the first task undertaken. Its width of 80 feet will be continued and outside of Broadway It will be the second most Imposing thoroughfare In Indiana. Before 18 months business blocks will line its western length Just as they do now on what is the present completed part. CAR LINE TO AMBRIDGE STREET. The Gary and Interurban will extend its lines on Fifth avenue from Broadway to-' Ambridge street. On Ambridge street the route will proceed north, to the general offices of the American Bridge company's plant. With the South Shore line which is nearby the west end will have ample connections with the heart of Gary. Some time ago the TIMES printed details of the plans to erect 450 home for the housing of employes of the local plants of the American Bridge company and the American Steet Steel and Tin Plate companies. At the present time plans for these residences are being prepared in the offices of Architect Creighton of Pittsburg, architect for the two companies. A NORTHWEST GARY. It Is Intended that the northwest end of the new subdivision shall be the first to be settled. The initial improvements will be made north of and on Fifth avenue and also on the entire length of Ambridge street. 1 In addition to this vast undertaking In the west a half dozen streets are being completed In the east end of Gary. Every north and south street will be pavevd to the Gary and Western track elevation In the east end of the city.

Gary Is from now on destined to witness a ceaseless and unparalleled

period, of activity. Before five years have elapsed It will be the metropolis of Indiana.

WHITING AND ENVIRONS

Fire At Paylo's. When Officer John Hughes was making his rounds on Friday morning at 1 a. m. he discovered flames coming from the barn of Mike Paylo, on Schrage avenue. Hughes turned In the alarm and the fire department, consisting of Chief C. O. Record and Joe Shawcroft and Volunteer Charles R. Klose, made a hasty run to the scene of the conflagration. There were four head of horses in the

barn at the time, and" two men, Joseph Toman and John Dug Ik. who work for

Paylo, and use, the barn as their lodg ing headquarters.

The men were aroused and the horses let out before the blaze had gained

much headway, and consequently es caped without injury.

As it was the damage was very slight owing to the officer discovering it in time, which might have proven very

disastrous.

The men were smoking before they

You should know this. One of the first flowing wells or gushers to be brought in in California was the Section Seven, No. 1, on Section 7, in the west side fields at Coalinga. This was among the first wells to be finished in that section of the field, and came in at the rate of 3,000 barrels per day. It has been phenomenal in point of production, thought it never was strictly a gusher. It produced well over one million barrels the first year and at present, after about ten years production, is pumping over 100 barrels per day. k What do you think of it? And do you know that our thousands of x acres lie in the Coalinga District? Coalinga is the largest producing field in the country today, and is paying hundreds of thousands of dollars monthly to the owners of its oil wells. - i Are you going to be one of the owners? Of course you are.
