Thla association will now erect a club house to eost approximately $25,000 The grounds and the club house will be the property of th association. A separate organization to be known as. the Hammond Country Club will be organized and incorporated. The initia tion fee will be $50. to star with, and the dues will be $3$ a year. When 200 members are secured, which will be within the next few weeks, th club will hav a fund of $10,000 which wi:i be used ln putting the grounds of the club in order and furnishing the club house. It is expected that $4,000 will be spent on the grounds and $6,000 on the furnishing of the club house. The country club association will give the country club a 20 year lease on the grounds and building for a nominal sum. Great For Haramoad. . There will be a regular cafe service in the club and in its appointments and equipment It will be the equal of any country club ln Chicago with the possi ble exception of one or two. A. M. Turner, who haa been one of the moving spirits in the enterprise said, "We are going to make living con ditions m Hammond better. We are going to improve the facilities for so cial intercourse. We are going to en able the business man to have all of the advantages of a suburban eountry club at his very door. We- are going to rise above the humdrum daily routine of business life and find out what else we can get out of this existence. Best of all we are going to make Hammond the social center of the region." W. B. Conkey, ln speaking of th new country club project, said, "The new country club is going to be a thing of which the whole city may be proud. It is bard to overestimate the importance to Hammond of this enterprise. It ls better than a big factory for the reason that it is going to induce the best poo pie of the region to live ln Hammond It means just as much to the business men of the city to Induce 100 men whose salaries or incomes are $5,000 a year to locate ln Hammond as it does to Induce 1,000 men whose salaries are $500 a yea to come to Hammond." Alda City Beantlful. From the stanndpolnt of the "city beautiful" the new country club ls go ing to make the southern part of Ham mond one of the mostivbeautlful resi dential districts in the wliole. state. . On one side will : h Harrison park with Its broad la wrtfija'c-uns, flower beds and drives and on the other side with the great stretchs of green that will be created as a result of laying out the golf links. Between the two will be Hohman street, a broad boautiful boulevard Hn ed on either side with magnificent resi dences. The whole Ht-will be benefit ed by the improvement, and the country club will permanently establish the bet ter residential district In that section of the city.

THE JUDGE ARRIVES IN CALIFORNIA Continued from Page l"cruel and inhuman treatment," and what the bride is going to charge the judge with will be plenty, so it is said.. Ton Knotta In Role of Cunld. . The judge and his bride were mar-j ried Thanksgiving day, 1910. by Mayor Thomas E. Knotts at Island Park, the judge's home in South Gary. However, I Mayor Knotts' role as eupid didn't last: long and although the happy bridegroom gave his bride $10,000' in cash, $12,000 in diamonds and a $.",,000 touring car, the "Humming Bird,"' the only one In the world equipped 'with ait brakes. Knotts Knot ot Binding. j Cupid's counsel didn't last Uong and; as soon as the couple started" back to Gary on the return from the honeymoon the bride left her hubfey. Before her marriage Ethel Thayer Bryan was the constant companion of the Judge's first wife. She was 6 or 7 when she was marired to her mil lionaire husband. The marriage took place about a year after the death of the first Mrs. Bryan. ROCTOR WITHDRAWS FROM THE RACE the place until four years later. When Proctor first ' announced his candidacy the question was raised on him that he was not old enough , to make him eligible to the office even if he was elected. Under the constitution a man must be at least thirty years old before he can take office as governor. There was some doubt as to whether Proctor would be thirty years old be fore or after the date on which th next governor wlll be Inaugurated. He said he would but the church records of his birth Indicate that he would not be thirty years old until a few week? after the date of inauguration.' However, Proctor still sticks to hi statement that he Is old enough to be eligible, but he says he will not remain in the race for the nomination. It Is presumed here that he has found there would be no chance for him to land the nomination, 4ecaqse of the show ing that ls being made by Ralstone and Boehne, and that It would be use less for him to stay ln. HILL EXPLAINS LEASE Washington. Feb. 13. James J. Hill, chairman of the board of the Great Northern Railroad, told the Stanley steel trust investigating committee yesterday a story of himself ln th role of a philanthropist to the stockholders of the railway company. Mr. Hill told how he had bought properties for more than $4,000,000, turned them over for that amount to the Lake Superior Company, Limited, as trilstees, for the railroad stockholders, and presented the stockholders with pro rata certificates for the increased value of the property, which accumulated rapidly and amounted to many additional millions. Qaeationed On Ore Leaae. Hr. Hill was questioned at length regarding the lease of these ore lands to the United States Steel Corporation for development, a lease which the cor - poration recently decided to cancel on January 1, 1915. In this land there are estimated to be about 500.000,000 tons of ore, which the steel corpuoration values at $1 a ton. "I wouldn't take fl a ton for the ore," Haid Mr. HI1L The ore freight rate from the Lakie Superior region to the . Pittsburg dis trict, which the United States Stael Corporation recently reduced to 80 cents a ton, Mr. Hill declared to be thecheapest In the country. "And it will be still lower." said he. "The next rate will be 60 cents." "Why did they cut the rate?" he was asked. "Why, I think the Steel Corporation just got scared to death." he replied. "That's all there Is to It." "But you get your royalty Juet the same?" asked Mr. Young. "And when the lease runs out you've got the ore." Remain la Fashloa. "Yes," Mr. Hill replied, "what difference does it make.
