city council for the purpose of securing a reduction In the license. It is understood that the lessees of moving picture theaters would not be advorne to payintt $uO for five cent theaters and $100 for ten cent theaters but they think $75 is too much .

jcerned Mr. Brown left saying that in the future he would take care of his own suit case and not leave it for the bell boy to carry to his room. "No more bad dreams for me."

The lessees of moving picture theaatres in Hammond expect to take a concerted stand against the $150 license fee that they are charged. It is hoped by this action that the fee will be reduced. . A well known theater man said yesterday, "The moving picture theater is the greatest educator imaginable. There is scarcely a picture that we present that does not have a moral to it. I think I can safely say that the pictures' that are shown in Hammond are clean and have a good influence on the community. ' "We illustrate historical scenes with a vividness that appeals to the . Imagination and the best classics in literature are Illustrated by our pictures. We have pictures from all parts of the world which give an excellent . Idea f conditions in foreign lands.

It Is probable that stepn will be taken in the near future to bring the matter up before the members of the

RAINS HELPED CROPS.

(Special to Thh Times.)

Crown Point, Ind., Aug. 11. Generous rains and showers throughout Lake county last evening were more than welcome to the farmers, the two weeks' drought playing havoc with the pastures and maturing corn. The rains will also prove a godsend to the big fruit crop to be gathered in Lake coun

ty this year and practically insures the harvest. There is every evidence this year that the Lake county crop report will be an exception to the general pessimistic reports" ' throughout the country of the last two weeks.

Miss Brooks clalnrt that she nailed this falsehood by calling up Mankowski on the wire and the vilage clerk denied all of Hessler's statements. This lead to a violent altercation between Hessler and Miss Brooks.

Hessler charged Miss Brooks with ruining- West Hamond but the doughty grirl replied, "West Hammond was ruined by you, Mr. Hessler, before I came. I came to remedy the evils for which you and your gang were responsible." MAKES SERIOVS CHARGES. Miss Brooks charged Hessler with being the owner of the building in which Michael Jasczyk's saloon is located and she said that this was one orthe worst dives in the village. Miss Brooks then called Hessler's attention to the Interstate Electrical company's deal and stated that the people of West Hammond had never been convinced that this company could furnish the village with electricity any cheaper than the Northern Indiana Gas & Electric Co. is now furnishing It. Hessler was charged with appointing C. J. Hough as the engineer on the Job and Miss Brooks explains how it was

that Hough was able to underbid all of his competitors. Miss Brooks recited a story that 's alleged to have been told by Daniel Fitzpatrick, a saloon keeper at the corner of State and the Burnham road. According to Miss Brooks. Fitzpatrick claims to have been in Kritche's salopn

to Chicago on business when he met the crew who decided to frame up a

joke on him.- He denies the tale in

A fire of an unknown oiigm started In the basement, below Cox's pool and billiard hall about 11:4 this morning and although the fire was extinguished without very much damage it . might have been a costly blase. The blaze started in the north part of the basement among a lot of rubbish, papers and wooden boxes and by the time departments No. 1 and 4 had arrived the flames had started to catch the woodwork. vThe damage done will probably amount" in the neighborhood of $2. Frank Roth who was the first oi.e to go into the basement claimed that if the blaze had broke out at midnight it might have swept the whole block as the soft coal and paper would have glv-
