The library will be closed Monday, July 4th. Through the kindness of its patrons, the library has now secured all the magazines advertised for except St?sTicholas for November and December 1307. Surely someone in the community has these two numbers, and if so, will confer a great favor by sending them in. Two new volumes have been purchased to supplement . the Century dictionary -and- cyclopedia. These volumes bring the wor up to date and contain all the new words, their pronunciation and definition as well as the new proper names. Mr. Ralph Adams, "representing the Chicago Title and Trust Co., has very indly given two cases of drawers to the Library "Guild. The Guild, has long needed something of this kind and is Your Hair

Remember that there is almost a better- way to do things. PLAX AXOTHER. GAME. From the enthusiasm aroused over the ball game between the court house team and the business men's nine on Tuesday, it is likely that other games of a similar nature will be arranged in the future as they are a drawing card and a source of revenue ,,to the regular ball team, .over seventy-five dollars being cleared at Tuesday's game. The Bridgeport players are preparing to issue a challenge to the "up

town" citizens for a game in the near future of ra pure3 from a penny up, and the "Fats" and "Leans" are talking strongly about organizing teams and playing against each other while the playing of these amateurs is not of a professional order there is enough base ball and fun sandwiched in the game to make It highly enjoyable and as on Tuesday the games are assured of a large audience. Federation Day of Indiana club women, will be held at Winona Lake on August 10th and although the speakers have not been announced as vet it is hoped all club women will attend and make it a grand success. The Venetian Carnival will be held on the evening of this day and will be a delisrhtful ana pleasing entertainment. is Worth It! T.nwpl), M 26,000 QALLONS $100,000.00

No. 50 Two days more to procure this stock at 60c per share. At this moment the total production of crude oil in California in round figures is somewhat in excess of 4 000 000 barrels per month, and a noted remarkable fact is t at the consumption is keeping fully in pace with the pro duction. In fact it has been the unprecedented demand for oil and its by-products that has warranted the increased supply of the natural commodity. Bearing upon this very point, it may be noted that one railroad in the state of California alone consumes in operation of its mechanical departments about TWENTY-FIVE PER CENT of the total product while two other railways are credited with using, between them, a similar amount ' These statements of facts will easily withstand investigation, and having demonstrated them for your own satisfaction, which' you are cordially invited to doTit is interesting to follow California's wonderful crude production into the wider realm of the great discoveries of the processes of refining oils, which has given to the world the greatest systems of heat and power ever known to man.

SCHOOL PICSIC. The members of the St; Mary's paro

chial schools held their annual picnic at Scheldt's Grove yesterday afternon. and the day's outing proved to be :an enjoyable one. The picnic was attended by a large crowd of-the pupils and friends of the school and besides the picnic dinner the time was spent in various forms of entertainment and pleasure usually prevalent at gathering of its kind and nature. The paraphernalia for Frank Young's bowling alleys to be installed in the Eder building has commenced to arrive and the proprietor hopes to have everything in readiness by the last of next week. The new alleys will be an innovation In Crown Point and are expected to be a money maker from the fall of the first pin. Postmaster Farley and "Corey" WiSe probably hold the record for the largest pickerel ever caught in the Kankakee j river with rod and reel, .they being lucky enough on Tuesday afternoon to capture one balancing the scales' at nearly 17 pounds. The rwst accoding to its captors, put up the gamest kind of a fight and was landed only after several minutes of hard work. It was brought to Crown Point for inspection and to convice the skeptical that the postmaster was not attempting to spring a fish yarn on his friends. Luther Rudolph leaves today for the west, to Join his brother Joe in Oregon where both young men expect to grow up with the country. John Pinter of Wheatfield is visiting relatives in Crown Point for a few days. X ' Will J. Davis, Jr. and familly have opened their summer residence north of town and expect to stay here until cold weather. S. Carl of California, aformer resident of Crown Point is visiting relatives here for a few days. Arthur Kenney a cement worker with Wm. Parry's gang was called to Valparaiso yesterday -owing to the quite serious illness of his mother, who was scalded and suffered severa burns some time ago. Joseph B. Young, Carl Thomen, Sheriff Grant and "Short" Ainsworth were Gary visitors yesterday. The school board held an important business meeting last evening. (Special to The Times. ) Indiana Harbor, June 30. The funeral of Mrs. John Hj Lees who died Monday afternoon at the South Bay Hotel, took place yesterday with a demonstration such as has never before been equalled in Indiana Harbor. For an hour and a half all business was suspended. Michigan avenue, from one end to the other presented an array of drawn blinds, and locked doors, the business men and their employes, all having gone to pay their last tribute of respect to the dead. The great Inland steel mill, the main industry of Indiana Harbor, closed down and every man employed in the big plant, putside of the heads of departments who made

the trip to Graceland, stood with bared head, as the hearse -preceded by five big automobiles piled high with beautiful flowers, passed from the South Bay Hotel to the Pennsylvania depot where the special train which was to bear the remains and the mourners to the cemetery, were In waiting. Thousands of people were massed along the curb lines, Michigan avenue from the Lake Shore tracks to the Pennsylvania presenting a solid phalanx of humanity, in many places ten or twelve deep. The flowers were a fortune in themselves. Thousands of dollars worth of perishable beauty and fragrance banked the walls of the parlors of the Sooth Bay Hotel, where the remains, encased in a beautiful white casket, lay in state throughout th emorning. Every department at the Inland mill, was represented by a magnificent floral tribute; every head of a department; every members of the Inland Steel company

to say nothing of business men generally throughout -Indiana Harbor had sent flowers. There were also quan tities of flowers sent from friends out of town and as these passed in the slow procession that moved from the hotel to the depot, their fragrance loaded the air. The cortege left the hotel at 12:45. The casket and flowers were tenderly placed aboard, and in the three coaches back of the baggage car, every seat was occupied. The train pulled out of the Pennsylvania sharp to the stroke of one, and reached Graceland at 2:30 o'clock. En route, Mrs. Albert Higin botham, the mother of the deceased met the train. The chief mourners included besides Mr. Lees the three sisters of the deceased, Mrs. Horn, Mrs. Wittbold and Mrs. Wright, hev adopted daughter, Mrs. Bennett Beardsley, and Miss Sarah Horton of Cleveland, an intimate faml ly friend. Mesdames Horn Wittbold and Wright returned to Indiana Har bor with the funeral party, but Mrs. Higinbotham whose advanced age made it advistable that she should, not un dertake too much, left the train in Chicago. A quintette composed of Mrs. Frank Webb. Miss Mary Evans and Miss Anna Saunders, and Messrs. Frank Webb and William Fox, accompanied the funeral party to the grave and rendered the music. There was a change in the pallbearers, who were as follows: E. J. Block, David Hancock, John W. Galvin, John Fenton, Thomas Campbell and William E. Jewell. Krcbs and Burns were the undertakers in charge of the funeral and H. C. Rutledge and Thomas Campbell made the arrangements for the family. Itev. II. E. Ganster of Chicago and Rev. E. O.

Last night Judge Lyddlck was sitting on the veranda of the Gary hotel dis cussing matrimonial problems with his friend George McGinnlty. As the dls cusslon went on Bcores of pretty girls passed by whose beauty showed up very well under the brilliant electrical llghtss . "During th ewhole hour I have been here, said Lyddlck, "I have not seen one woman pass whom I would call beautiful." "There's where you are wrong quoth McGinnlty, "Every woman in Gary is more or less a Venus. I could marry fhem all but the choice Is so great and, the girls so pretty that I am utterly ' betwildered and have not married at all." ' Lyddlc continued like Job did after the bees stung him and he lost all his money. He spoke on bitterly lamenting the Inability to find a woman pretty enough to ma.rry. From what he said it is inferred that he would like to have a wife but some of the more splrituelle specimens will have to show themselves before John takes up housekeeping. The lawyer then went his way and as he passed out of sight, Mc Ginnity while tipping his hat to. seven ladies who were passing said: "That guy has It all wrong. Why, the only side he sees of married life is when he handles a divorce case. That has given him a bum impression. If he don't grab one of these pretty fluzies soo nthere'll be none left. To night a hundred pieces of calico passed here and I would be willing to spend a few cart wheels and get a marriage license and get spliced to the first comer." After dispensing this philosophy he retired for the night. STATE OFFICIAL STARTS HIS LABORS (Special to Thb Times.) Indiana Harbor, June 30. J. H. Brewster, who was sent here by the Indiana state board of health, is at present rigging' up a boat for the purpose of beginning his survey of the Calumet river. This does not mean survey in the general acceptance of the term, but is technical for all that is comprehended in the analysis of the water, and other matters pertaining to the condition of the river as it affects the health of the people of the region' It was erroneously reported a short while ago that Mr. Brewster's researches would take in Lake Michigan. Two years ago he was In Indiana Harbor for this purpose, but it appears that on that occasion he completed his wor in this connection and that this year his observations will be confined to the river. For this purpose he is rigging up a small boat sufficient to traverse the waters of the river, but not of a character calculated to withstand the rigors of Lake Michican. It 13 the purpose of the state board of health to make surveys of all the streams, and It happens that the Calumet, being located In the extreme northermost limits of the state, will be the object of first attack. Mr. Brewster expects to remain here

all summer and the result of his investigations are for "storage" purposes, the data to be filed and ready for use at any time the state may required. The expense of Mr. Brewster's labors are to be borne entirely by the state, the cities to be ultimately benefited, being in no sense sharers of the cost of the undertaking. ,

"PUG" LIDS IB BAST ILE, 6 TIED (Special to The Times.) East Chicago. June 30. The East Chicago police station holds an Inter esting prisoner In the person of an avowed patriot, and alleged ex-prlze-fighter, from Massachusetts. The man's name is Ambrose Shenoek and he was arrested in Indiana Harbor whose fire water It was evident had failed to agree with his digestion. At any rate Ambrose was in a decidedly wealvng way when captured, and it took four officers to land him In the station, where his violence was such that he had to be handcuffed to his cell to prevent ihm doing himself vio lence. Each Take a Wing. The officers adopted a novel means of conveying him to the station, cling ing him betwen them like a hammock, two officers at each end. Sergeant Frank Barker possessed himself of one foot. Sergeant William Hughes of another, while Officers William Needles and Ed Shield each took a "wing", and thus, shouting and struggling the exprlze fighter was lgnominously carried to the station. J Before his arrest which occurred shortly before six o'clock, Senock had aroused the business section of the town by his loud harangue. He stag gered along Michigan avenue until he reached the green outside of the Pennsylvania. Stationing himself on the edge of this he proceeded to laud the "great American public," whom he invited one and all . to have a drink. His speech was accompanied by a wild giration of his arms, and other violent gestures, and the burden of his remarks was most patriotic Xearly Ruu Over. He staggered across the Pennsylvania tracks after the gates had been lowered to guard the crossing against the approach of an east bound flyer, and leaned against a post, the breathless mob of spectators meanwhile waiting for him to make a sortie onto the tracks, as the train thundered in. This was not done however and as the train passed, the relllng stranger turned and pursued the uneven tenor of his way down Michigan avenue. Police officers three blocks away had herd his loud harangue, and In a short time, four officers were upon the scene. Sergeant Frank Barker who lives In Guthrie stret and was off duty heard the rumpus and was first to reach the vociferous stranger. He told him he would give him a place to sleep, but e-ldently sleep was the farthest from the ex-prize-fighter's desire. He eyed the sergeant who was in citizen's dress, with suspicion and scorn. Asked him who he was, and told him he would knock his block off for him. Sergeant Barker pinioned his arms behind him. and Shenoek, already sufficiently unsteady on his pins, fell down. By this time the other officers came up, and taking summary possession of the ex-prize-fighter's person, carried him roaring and fighting away. Later he was taken to the station in East Chicago. The prisoner was found to have 11 cents In his possession, and Sergeant Leo McCormick refused to take this over, declaring he did not want to be responsible for so much money. His hearing comes up today. DOES THIS SUIT TOUT M.

Take Hall's Family Pills for constipationeast end streets in Gary, which has not been paved, will soon be one of the finest driveways In the city. The Gary Land company has started the work of improving the thoroughfare. Cement sidewalks and the sewers were laid In 1906, but no further work was done. v , ' ' Pennsylvania street Is divided Into two parts by reason of the fact that East park, which has not been opened yet, lies In the center line of the street between Sixth and Seventh ' avenues. The street, thus cut into two parts, will not be used much as a traffic highway, but its proximity to the park will, within a few years, make it the mecca of autos and carriages. It is not known when the steel corporation will throw East park open to the public use, but the work of beautifying it will probably start next here. Until a year ago more than fifty families lived In the parks occupying shacks. When the general order came . eliminating shacks from the first subdivision the people moved Into nearby residences. Since then the park has been used as a storage place for young trees, tools and wagons and other I properties belonging to the Gary Land company. WISCONSIN CHEAP LAND AND MILD CLIMATE.'
