Crown Point Mews
Happenings of a Day in Lake County's Lively Capital
SHUCKS
From the Diary of Si. Lence
Hi Flyer sez th' up-keep cost o' them airyplanes is a great deal more then 'n autymobeel. There's a hull lot o' this "love at first Bight" bizness thet oughter hev hed th' services o' 'n optician before th' glance was given. Hev y' been approached fer mayor yet?
The Times is particularly pleased with the results of the Crown Point election of recent date, in which a majority of its citizens voted to become a city. The result is in keeping with the policy of progress, which this paper has always advocated, and was one of the first adherents, when the question, was raised. The Times had no axes to grind or no one to serve in advocating the change, and our flattering and growing subscription list in Lake county's city-to-be is the best evidence that the reopJe realize that The Times is the tool of no one and
its policy above the "personal equation." We congratulate the people of Crown Point upon the new order of things and assure them that this paper will continue in its endeavor to merit the success which it Is meeting In the county peat at present. Our policy of "no man being big enough to make us serve him, and no man too small to serve" is creating a success of which we are proud. With this evidence of the people's satisfaction we hope to continue our policy of conservative progress and look to our many subscribers to assist us In our endeavors. The town board will meet next Monday evening in special session to transact important business and add the final chapter in the records of the town of Crown Point. The date for the municipal election will be set at this meet
ing and possibly only one more regular meeting will be held by the town board before the election of its- aldermen takes place. The present board is being importuned to seek places In the aldermanic body and their past serv
ices merit thern the first choice of Crown Point citizens in the coming
election. Their reign should extend under the city regime. The conservative policy will i not have to be followed In Crown Point as far as mayoralty timber Is concerned and already enough eligible candidates have been mentioned and signified their willingness to accept the position of Crown Point's first mayor to make an inviting array. Every man jack of them would make an excellent mayor as far as honesty and business acumen is concerned, and should they all be induced to run, the voters of Crown Point will spend sleepless nights In trying to make a selection. Ot course, the list given below is only problematical, not any of them being avowed candidates as yet, and possibly some of them would not take the office were it offered on a sliver platter, but they have been mentioned as possible candidates and have a following which would give them their support should they see fit to make the race. Among those mentioned are: John B. Peterson, John Brown, Andrew Sauerman, Dr. Salisbury, Dr.' Tinkham, Harold H. Wheeler, George Sherman, Claude W. Allman, Herbert Barr, J. Frank Meeker and Otto J. Bruce. Some mayors In that list. Eh, what? The pupils of the Lutheran schools
held an enjoyable school picnic at the Lake county fair grounds yesterday
and the ideal weather helped to make the occasion an event long to be remembered lit the annals of the school's history. Mrs. George Weiss delightfully entertained the N. B. I. I. club at her home on North street last evening. Julius Horst has returned from a visit with friends at Lafayette, Ind. Mrs. Frank B. Pattee Is visiting her sister, Mrs. J. B. Neal, of Chicago, for a few days. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Beattle attended the graduating exercises of the Hammond high school last evening. A niece
of Mr. and Mrs. Beattle was among those graduating. Mrs. Charles Kenney visited with friends In Chicago yesterday. A ball game Is being arranged between a number of Crown Point amateurs and near-profesisonals. to take place as soon as enough liniment has been rubbed in. Mrs. Kunice Youche is a Chicago visitor today. Mrs. C. M. Baker and daughter of Gary, returned this morning after a short visit with Crown Point friends.

I saw them moving about with their coats on their arms, this being a ruse 'they have in order to work more effectively. Our men are unacquainted with the faces of the crooks. We could only suspicion the fellows that did the work, but as were unable to catch any of them In the act or with, the goods on them we could not airest them. Hereafter at an event of this kind, I will insist on having half a dozen Chicago detectives In the hall who are especially acquainted with this class of criminals." Pumt of Every Description.

About a dozen more unidentified wallets. Alex Schaller of Dyer reported a pocketbook containing twenty dollars missing. John Newell of Hammond is said to have been one of the victims. There were big wallets and small ones, fat ones and slim ones, elegant Russian leather ccmtraptlons and ragged cloth purses. Some contained traveling cards, let
ters, railroad passes season passes for the owner and "party" to amusement resorts and some passes to the major
league baseball elds, but nary a one
ui mora contained a penny, one or two contained stamps which the thieves had overlooked.

Judge Frank Green of Wet Hammond, said "It was the only thing to do." Eddie Clabby, who was to have come on, was kept oft the program through a broken nose. Two eager young gentlemen--Sheehan of Chicago Heights and Ryan of South Chicago, mixed it in the semi-windup for one round ana Santry wisely stopped it.

When Clabby came out he got a great ovation. He started to peck Brown with straight lefts, the Greek covering up'and clinching, and it was In the second that Jimmy slipped to one knee after ducking one of the Greek's wild swings. There was some stiff exchanges between the two and in the third Brown began to lie wary of Clabby's straight lefts and covered up well. Jimmy tried to straighten him up in the clinches with short arm jolts. Brown was wild for an uppercut James worked his shift nicely and made it seem in the fifth as if the

In the early part of the seventh the Greek rocked Jimmy with a couple of punches, but James landed a pip in Brown's face and there was some slugging. In the eighth Brown passed around many wild swings In the hope of landing just one. His defense was hard to penetrate and he ttrlstled like - a hedgehog. Both hung on in this round and there were

Jimmy stopped using his sore right hand and this slowed him up a little. In the ninth Clabby did some beautiful ducking and escaped some dangerous swings. Brown was crazy to get Jimmy's mar-

An incident is told today in which Harry Kennedy of Hammond is said to have figured. He is said to have felt himself being- picked and practically caught the thief in the act. Grabbing him by the throat he backed him against the wall and threatened to do
him up.
