BALDS HEADS NOT WANTED Baldness is too Generally Considered a Sign of Advanced Age. A bald-headed person does not have en equal chance with one blessed with a healthy head of hair, because baldness Is too generally accepted as an indica-i tion of age.

considering the installing of a modern Are alarm system in Crown Point to take the place of the old-time bell alarm at the city hall. The bell and tower on the city hall at present is said to be In dangerous condition, and a meeting of the firemen and the committee on public safety of the city council met last evening and will do so again this evening to consider plans for the installing of the new system or the repair of the belfry at the city hall. A modern fire alarm system in Crown Point would be a good thing and meet a practical need and it is probable that the firemen will accomplish their purpose in installing the new alarm system. The Fortnightly musical will meet at the home of Mr. and Mrs. I. A. Root, on South street, next Monday evening for their first regular meeting of the club year. The year books of the club have been recently Issued from the press and disclose some very interesting program for the fortnightly session of the popular musical organization. Rev. J. M. Jolly will deliver a series of lectures at the Free Methodist church
on the liquor traffic and temperance questions. Mr. Jolly is said to be a forceful and able speaker, and will handle the liquor question without gloves. Mrs. Albert Maack delightfully en
tertained a party of Crown Point society ladles at a luncheon yesterday afternoon at her home on Main street. A most enjoyable time is reported by those attending. Library otr. The library is greatly indebted to Mrs. Charles Griffin of Hammond for a large steel engraving by A. Drescher called "The Country Road." It is an appropriate and much appreciated gift.
Gifts of books have been received this week from 5frs. John Wirtx and Mrs. Margaret Pettibone. The reading room attendance increases daily, aivi the circulation rises In proportion. Another box of books will be sent to the bindery next week. The monthy report for September shows that the library has 3,075 volumes, of which 1.023 are Juvenile. The total number of books circulated is 957, making an average daily circulation of 3S books. The number of borrowers is S39. At this rate the annual report for 1911 will show nearly double the circulation of last year. Crown Point will wind up the 1911 seasonof the Northern Indiana league next Sunday in a game with Gary, and unless the weather is unfavorable the curtain will be lowered on the national game in Crown Point for the balance of the year. Financially Crown Point has fared better than any team in the
league, the fans lending their hearty support to the team during the entire season. With the pennant clinched the review of the years games is being made and more than an ordinary share of credit goes to Eder and Enrlght of Hammond for some excellent ball played with the Crown Point team earlier in the season. The strengthening of the team has gone on all summer until the county seat has now one of the best baseball playing machines in northern Indiana. The only regret the fans now have is that the team cannot be signed as it is for any game or series of games the county seat engages in next year. A five-months-old baby boy of Mr. ana Mrs. Peter Helner, living north of Hanover Center, died Wednesday and was buried on Friday morning.
The marriage of Mr. Frank J. BergJ
to Miss Katherine Houseman was sol
emnized Wednesday, and last evening a
dance was given in their honor at Central Music Hall. Mrs. Thomas McCay has returned from a two weeks' visit with relatives and friends at Kendalvllle, lnd. Mrs. Rarr and Miss Paza will leave soon for Los Angeles and other parts of California, where they intend to pass the winter. Manager Lehman will open the skating rink at Central Music hall to the general public on next Friday. Frank Rettig and family have moved Into the new home on Nichols street recently built by Mr. Rettig. The farmers report a good deal of the corn and potatoes are spoiling on account of the heavy rains.
The following resolutions were adopted at the annual reunion of the Lake County Veterans' association: I Whereas, as we gather In this, the annual meeting of the Lake County, Indiana, Soldiers' Veteran association, held In this city, it Is more painfully ' impressed upon us that not only are our ranks thinning rapidly by the grim reaper, but the halting step of
the old veteran is more apparent, and that the day of his helplessness approacheth; and Whereas, the cost of living increases as our falling strength crows; and Whereas, the president Judged wise and equitable to recommend to congress the enactment of a pension law for retiring civil service employes of the government: and
Whereas, it rs by common consent, as investigation shows, it is the sentiment and Judgment of the citizenship of our state, that the old soldier of the sixties has not been provided for by the government In proportion to the value of his services and the sacrifices made. Therefore, be it resolved by this association and the large number of citizens here assembled, that we respect
fully request in the early part of the'
session of the next congress that the preisdent and congress see that a dollar a day pension law be enacted. That a copy of these resolutions signed by the officers of our association be forwarded to the president of the I'nited States, and each senator and representative n congress from this state. J NO..

East Chicago lnd., Oct. 6. If East Chicago is visited in the near future by no less an august personage than the Emperor Franz Josof of Austria,
the community will have to thank one
John Opprltz for the honor. For Op-
priti says he intends writing the Emp and asking him to 'come over and fight
it out in , his behalf with Chief of Po
lice Leo McCormick. Chief McCormick
is standing pat, and says let Franz
Joseph come on if he wants to.
Opritz was indulging in a little joy
ride for himself on a Harbor car. He was intoxicated, to put it mildly, and had ridden back and forth a number of time and that would have been all right
had be continued to behave himself in
the maner he began when he first ent
ered the car. However when he bega
to do things which no gentleman would
have done on a street car, the conduc
tor and motorman started to put him
off.
, Opritz, however, stuck with the tenacity of glue, and Chief McCormick noticing that an Indiana Ha.rbor car was stalled for some time at the corner
of Baring and Chicago avenues whlel he was homeward bound, went to ascertain what it was all about. He found
the car crew struggling ineffectually
with Opritz and took a hand at the
game himself. The combined efforts of
the three proved too much for Opritz
who was persuaded to accompany Chief
McCormick to the station. "When lodg
ed in his cell he announced that he
was going to take up the matter with
Emperor Franz Josef, sending him a
letter explaining Just how he had been
abused. He had no doubt that his Royal Xibs wohld come over at once
and see him out of his difficulty.
In the mean time Opritz will lagulsh
in durance vile until Monday when his
case will be heard by Judge Riley.
WALTER GIBSON OUT
OF SALOON BUSINESS
Alderman Walter Gibson of the Tol-
leston district of Gary has disposed of 1 his saloon. He follows in the wake of
Alderman M. F. Castleman, who some months ago got rid of his Clarke road
wet goods dispensary.
Whether the two bribery charges
pending against the sixth ward states
man have anything to do with his retiring from business is not known. In any event, a foreigner now presides
over the Borman boulevard bar.
One bribery charge against Gibson
Is the result of the Dean heating fran
chise. The other was made last spring at the instance of Mayor Knotts, who demanded unspotted civic virtue in the council. It was planned to prosecute Gibson, but when charges of the same nature confronted the mayor he found
that he had troubles of his own to look
after.

couple of others. At times the talk became animated. Mayor Knotts spent some time questioning Proprietor Sommers. Whethet it was in connection with T. B. Deal a former guest of the house, and his famous dictograph is not known. Afier this the hotel register was taken to a safe place and was carefully perused. Jfo Inkling was given out as to the nature of the conference, although it Is said that tt may outrival the famous $150 trip to Louisville when the details are given out to the world.
