TWINS ARE IN TOWN FOR SHOW

The Lyman Twins are in town. They arrived here with a car load of brand new scenery and will not only open the season for the Orpheum theater but open their own season as well. One of the twins (it's hard to tell which one) said, "We have put more money Into our show this year than ever before. All-, of the scenery is , brand new and the costumes are right out of the tailor shop.'' "We have a bigger, funnier, more pretentions show than ever before and we look forward to a great season. The show this year is' called 'The Speculators. " Like all western plays there ! a "Tender-foot" in "The Cowboy ai the Thief the atraction which comfsMo the Orpheum on Sunday, Aug-. 6. "Tender-foot," is. Western parlance for a man new to the country. Wendall Davis, the author of the play, has carefully drawn this character as he at one time was a "tender-foot" himself, having gone to work on an uncle's ranch near Laramie. Wyo.. after his graduation at Harvard. Although the first few months of ranch life are pretty " strenuous for the average man, it usually brings out the best or worst in ' him, and as the saying goes "places him." The "tender-foot" in The Cowboy and the Thief" turns out good, and instead of causing ridicule among the cowboys, he arouses them to admiration. ,

OFFICIALS PLEASED " WITH CREMATOR Y I : Hammond Man Find That Huntington Plant Is a Great Success.

due to return. The plant has a capaei,t of ten to

twelve tons a day. The garba,gs is i dumped into the incinerator by the wagon load and the drier the refuse the easier it burns. Mayor Smalley who was one of the city officials who went to Huntington said this morning that he would keep in touch with the Huntington officials to watch what satisfaction the crematory is giving. He says Hammond needs a plant of some kind, and that some action would be taken in the near future. It was his opinion that it a McQuire plant were to be installed that two units would be required, in the first place to handle all the garbags and secondly to avoid long hauls by placing

them in different parts of the city. Those In the junket, committee were Mayor Smalley, Adam R. Ebert and John Rohde of the board of public works, and John Kane and Henry Whltaker of the city council. City officials from other parts of the state are expected to visit Huntington soon and the city expects to get considerable advertising out of its progressive movement.

Hammond's city officials who went to Huntington yesterday to witness the first demonstration of the new garbage crematory there returned last night full of enthusiasm for a crematory In Hammond. The Huntington crematory cost twenty-five hundred dollars and is a one unit plant. It is known as the'W. H. McQuire design and as far as the Hammond visitors could see yesterday the plant was a success. The plant was erected -by the McQuire people on a guarantee that if it did not give all the satisfaction promised that the city of Huntington would not have to pay for the plant. The intense fire burned garbage containing ten per cent water, and even tin cans and rubbish without leaving an odor. The cremation of a horse was scheduled for four o'clock in the afternoon but this was not witnessed by the Hammond officials, as their train was

George Rogoff, in appearance about twelve years of age, but possibly fifteen years old, drifted, into Hammond several weeks ago in the hope of finding a home, and growing desperate he inserted 'an ad in The Times' columns last night in the hope of getting results. It seems that he had inserted an ad in a Chicago paper, and when a Hammond couple answered the ad saying they would visit him in Chicago to see what kind of a lad he was he lost no time 1n coming out immediately to take possession of his now home. He proved to be older than desired, and the couple furnished him with money to take him back to Chicago, but George would not stay. He drifted back into Hammond and Insists on staying, saying that he has an aged fathec unable to support himself and his step-mother. George appears, to have an unusual amount of experience, and if he will prove amenable to home influences and

discipline, he has a bright future for

he appears to be wide awake, but he has some faults which he needs to curb. In the meantime he has worked himself into the good graces of one or two men who have helped him along, but they are not prepared to give him a permanent home. Unless he is willing to rfturn to his home or can be adopted, the authorities will have to place him in an institution.

PLAY INTERESTING BASEBALL GAME The office of the United States Metal & Refining company and the operating department played an interesting game yesterday during the noon hour, the operating department being defeated by the office, 5 to 1. Both pitchers pitched excellent games, Bodie of the operating department getting eight strikeouts. Will Glover of the office got five strikeouts. The score:

good one and will be played for a $150

No Action for Lights. Henry Whitaker, one of the Hammond councilmen, stated that be had heard a great deal of complaint on account of accidents caused by the brilliant headlights on the street cars out he said that no action in the matter could be taken until council convenej again next fall. He said that the matter would probably be taken up and discussed then.

Funeral of C. J. Pochman.

No Clue to Pegulski. No further clews have been learned in the case of Peter Pegulski, who mysteriously- disappeared from his home here a week ago yesterday morning. The police departments of all the surrounding cities have been notified of his leaving home, but not the slightest trace has been found so far. Pegulski left for work a week ago yesterday where he is thought to have gone to Indiana Harbor where he was employed. The mills at that place have seen nothing of him since then.

CUBS SLATE ANOTHER. The West Hammond Cubs will play their nineteenth straight game with the Robertsdale Colts at the West Hammond grounds at 1:30 o'clock Sunday. Otto Green is In good form and is expected to pitch Sunday. Chink will be behind the bat (some catcher, believe me). The Cubs have not been defeated this season and would like to challenge some fast Hammond team. See Otto Green, 20-15oth street, or phone 103SW.

Competition CSood. "The consumer would get the benefit of such competition. If the grocer attempted to undersell the farmer with left over South Water street produce you can bank on it that the workingman in Hammond would get the benefit. "It is possibly true that there are days when the Hammond grocer is able for little or- nothing on acount of an

to buy produce from South Water street over-stocked market of perishable '.

goods."

Funeral at 9 o'clock. The funeral of Casper Bick Sr., which was set for 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, will be held at 9 o'clock to accommodate the relatives who live out of town and who are unable to be in town by 8 o'clock. The pallbearers are all personal friends of the deceased and were Mr.

He will then be able to visit his friends in this city. The Hammond Gun club holds a regular shoot next Sunday afternoon. The weather being favorable a large attendance is expected.
