ORPHEH PUTS

CRAG

The Orpheum theatre Is giving abso, lutely the biggest measure of high grade entertainment for 10 and 20 cents that has ever been seen In the city of Hammond, it is a dollar show at vaudeville prices, and if the house is not packed every show for the rest of the engagement It will h a. rfw. ftion on the judgment of the people of j Hammond. It is nothing short of remarkable that the management of the Orpheum could trot out twenty-seven high-grade artists, not twerrty-flve as was advertised, and make any money out of the enterprise. It Is impossible to say too much in favor of "A Winning Miss." for it is ; exactly the same show and the same j people that appeared in Hammond some time back at regular musical comedy ! prices. And there was really nothing missed from the original production: Most of the original cast was in the company that appeared at the Orpheum yesterday and last night. The costumes were the equal of those seen in the better HAr.ir.10ND MAN TRAPPED WITH GIRL Otto Miller, Switchman, Arrested Last Night With Young Girl in Hotel. On a complaint sworn out by his wife. Otto Miller employed as a switchman, was arrestee last a room at the Maine Hotel by Captain nanion where he was found in the company of an 18 vmr old iimmnn girl Anna Jurgens, 106 Russell street. aimer was brought to the police station and charged with disorderly conduct. Unable to arivn linnil ho ie a hoi at the police station where his trial will come up before Judge Barnett this afternoon. Following his arrest the young girl told of some sensational charges which may be filed against Miller, but owing to the fact that she was 14 years old when the charges occurred in is no likely that he will be punished as his wife and the young girl do not want to prosecute him. Miller is a married man, 45 years old and for some years has not been living with his wire. He met the Jurgens girl some four years ago and during that time he has been her constant companion. WEST HAMMOND MAN INVOLVED CContlaned from Page i.) ready to surrender and give bonds today. But for the discovery of the plot within a week of Its Inception by an official of the Union Trust company, the conspirators would have netted hundreds of thousands of dollars. As ; a result of the quick discovery of the cnecK Kiting plan, the losses to Chicago banks, so far a known, aggregate only $7,000. After he had given ball at the criminal court building yesterday v Jacob Kata made a statement which was, In effect, a loud complaint that he was an Innocent victim of others. "Huston, who was a client of mine In several small matters, came to me early in January with a proposition that I take the position of treasurer of the Stockford Reel company, which he had Just formed to manufacture and sell a patented fishing reel," Katz said. "He said he had a fine suite of offices in the Harris Trust company building, and would give me $100 a month, pay all the office expenses and furnish me with a stenographer, while I might have the liberty to do my law business on the outside. "Huston Introduced me at the Fort Dearborn bank and gave me the check for $1,157 to deposit to the credit of the Stockford Reel companj'. Afterward he got me to sign eight or ten blank checks, on the plea that I might be absent from the office on my law business when they were needed, and he also took the check books. "I never received any salary or the proceeds of any of the checks, nor did I deposit any of them. Huston simply used me as a catspaw. I .owned no stock In the Stockford Reel company." EXPECT HARD GAME. The Hammond polo men, now under the name of the Dave Lederers, are looking forward to a hard tussle when they line up against East Chicago at the Lewis skating rink Thursday night and the game should be one of the most interesting that has been played this season. Since East Chicago was defeated by the Lederers two weeks ago they have been putting in some hard practice work and are in hopes of turning the trick on Hammond. The same lineups will be used and the management is making preparations for a packed house. NEW COLD WAVE

class productions and the scenery was gorgeous. Fogarty Makea Hit. Johnny Fogarty is positively the funniest comedian that has been seen at the Orpheum since it opened. Fogarty does not have to try to be funny; all he does is act natural. At yesterday's performances he made the audience laugh until its sides ached. A good word could be said about everybody In the company. Even the chorus was up to the average of the best road companies putting out musical comedy. , Grace Manlove. as Wlnni Winters, the "Winning Miss," has been seen In Hammond before and is the same sweet winsome girl. J. E. Coghlan. as Capt. Mike McGinty. the old sea captain, waa almost as funny as Fogarty. The musical feature of this attraction should not be overlooked. The're are some fine songs well sung, and after seeing the show the average person goes away feeling that it is the best bargain In amusement that was ever offered in Hammond. ture was much colder yesterday, while farther south the cold wave had not made Itself felt, Montreal being 34 degrees above aero. The local temperature was comparatively high, the maximum being 47 degrees at 7 p. m. Sunday and the minimum 34 degrees at 6 o'clock in the morning. GUN CLUB MEN TO MEET The members of the Hammond Gun club are to meet tomorrow evening, in the office of thlir secretary, John C. Becker, in the Hammond building.

REFUSED TO TAKE CHANCES The "Lower Berth 13 company, w men appeared in a local theatre the first part of this week, disbanded as soon as the Hammond engagement was completed, according to reports which nave been heard in Hammond todavi .The company was positively the lim. it, and its manager evidently saw that failure was Inevitable and thought It was time to quit. The show did not make good, and It is said that the Auardt Bros, decided that they would not take a change on it In any more or me tneatres on their circuit. Petitions Turned In. W. Thomas, secretary of the Hammond Manufacturers' association, stated today that he expected to haw. nil me petitions for "five-minute service" m his hands tomorrow, and no until then will he be able to learn hnw manames mere are on the netltlon. ne said that the petitions would then De maae ready to present to" A.
