The best thing y' kin say erbout this week o' Fourth o' July celebration is that a fool and his money is soon parted. Ever notice thet It's hardly ever nec
essary f er th. department stores t' advertise enny bargain sales at th' beauty
counters.

fire owing to the dry condition of things. If there is no other way to
stop the nefarious work the best play would be to make an example of the
first party g-uilty of doing- any damage. no matter In what way or extent. The guilty ones should be subjected to a
large fine and poesibily a damage suit against the town itself would be a convincing way of putting an end to the
nuisance.
FAIR CATALOGUES OUT.
The first copies of the 52d Annual Lake
County fair premiums and year book
were circulated yesterday, and besides being full of useful Information re
garding the coming county fair, show that the merchants of the county are
firm believers in advertising. The book is nlcely.gotten up and is a good souvenir to be kept as a rememberance of the second fair over the half century ntimber. The society has 'gone toack to the old admission charge of 25 cents and hope to gain th-e appreciation of the crowd and a big attendance by the reduction from last year's rates. The
premium lists are full and offer prizes
of cash for a wide scope of articles turned out by human hands.
It -Is thought that the odds would almost in his favor. 1 ; - "v Miss Anna Wilson, teacher in the Chicago city schools, is visiting relatives In Crown Point and "may possibly spid the greater part of her vacation here. Two games with the Rlverviews are scheduled for Sunday and Monday. The
best game of the season was played some time ago with the Rlverviews and it promises to be an interesting match from the players as well as the spec .tators' point of view. - Mrs. Harry Laws returned yesterday from a Blx weeks' visit to New York City, where she visited relatives. Clarence Fleming and family visited with Crown Point relatives yesterday.
The farmers are comylaining of being

persona non grata in any community
at present. "Wm. Parry transacted business in Hammond yesterday. Gary nearly always has a public officer on the way to and from the steel town with one or more law-breakers In tow. News in Crown Point is very much like the rain we haven't had in several weeks very scarce.

The "maple srar, the 'affliction
which did untold damage and Injury to the maple trees in Crown Point, some few years ago. Is noticed on several
of the shade trees In town and fears of a repetition of the blight are evinced by some. The Kngllsh sparrow proved to be the deadliest foe of the "scale" on its last appearance and the otherwise apparently worthless bird earned the gratitude of all who valued their shade trees. While not being as noticeable and pn. a smaller order the "scale" seems to be galng a foothold and it may be possible that later on the blight may prove as disastrous to the shade tres as on its last apearance in Lake County.
