The material, after it Is. mixed, is subjected first to a low pressure in moulding it Into shape, and later it is given the highest pressure the power of the plant affords.

A building 40x80 feet has been built, but It Is the Intention to increase the size of the structure In the very near future to 150 feet in length and where only a dozen men are employed at the present time, it is expected to increase that number to 100 when the plant Is enlarged to its intended capacity. The company is already behind in(lts orders. The manager of the Great Lakes Construction company draws a distinction between "concrete stone." the product manufactured by his company and other concrete products. He declares It to be harder and more compact, having in fact the same degree of these qualities as hard stone. Also It Is claimed for it that It will not absorb water any more than sto-e. The material used In Its manufacture is practically the same as that used in other concrete products, but the pres-

Gives Quickest and Surest

The following is absolutely the surest and quickest cure known to science for all foot ailments: "Dissolve two table-

spoonfuls of Calocide compound In a basin of warm water. Soak the feet in

this for full fifteen minutes, gently rubbing the sore parts." The effect Is really wonderful. All soreness goes instantly; the feet feel so good you could sing for joy. Corns and callouses can be peeled right off. It

gives immediate relief for sore bunions.

weaty, smelly and aching feet. A twenty-five cent box of Calocide Is said to be sufficient to cure the worst feet. It works through the pores and remove the cause of the trouble. Don't waste time on uncertain remedies. Any druggist has Calocide compound In stock or he can get it in a few hours from hia wholesale house, c ? Is not a parent medicine but Is ethical preparation.

line. It, Is expected to open the park' not later than July 1. It will cater principally to Chicago patronage and it is believed that excursionists, who now seek out Michigan City, Benton Harbor and South Haven, will patron- j lse Mllle'r Beach, which is nearer home and safer of access.

What the Plana Ktnbrare. In chief the plans of the promoters embrace: Leases have been secured from the Carr estate (now In litigation at Michigan City) for the land east of the gravel road. In case the Carr est'ate loses the syndicate will fall back upon leases It has secured from the Lake Shore Sand company of Chicago, which owns the land at the closed mouth of the Grand Calumet. 2. The steamship "Flora," which has 1,600-passenger capacity and which Is now engaged In traffic between Saginaw and Cleveland, has been leased from the Berry family. It will be commanded by Capt. Berry. 3. Concessions will be let to amusement companies for the bathing beach privileges, refreshment stands, figure eights, miniature railways, merry-go-rounds, circle swings, motion pictures,

etc. Plaa a Chautanqaa. 4. - There will be boating and fishing on the Grand Calumet. 5. As Miller Is now the Mecca of students from the Chicago universities and schools a Chautauqua will be es-

the length that one could be erected at the point to the east. There will be no effort made to open the mouth of the Grand Calumet river, which Is choked by sand. The Great Lakes Dredge arid Dock company estimated that it would cost $100,000 to open up the river for lake navigation. First Boat Ty June 20. Capt. Berry said last night that the pier will be completed In 35 days and that he expects to make the first trip from Chicago about June 20. He will use the Rush street dock, where the steamer Roosevelt leaves from. At the present time Indiana Harbor business men have been making overtures to Capt. Berry to make freight stops at

that port. Last year Capt. Borry was in Gary In an effort to get the steel corporation's permission to use the Virginia street docks as a landing place for an excursion line to be run from

Negotiations are now pending for the

erection of a fair-sized summer hotel.

There will also be garage accommodations and an eastern company Is looking the situation over with a view of erecting portable bungalows to be furnished and rented to summer tourists from Chicago.

Ever since the decadence of Manhattan beach in Windsor Park in the late nineties, a place where as many as 100.000 would throng on a holiday, Chicago people have been forced to go miles across the water to Benton Har

bor. During the past four years sev

eral attempts have been made by

amusement park promoters to turn Miller beach Into a Coney Island, but In each case the attempt failed because of the Inability to get leases from the Carr estate and the sand companies. Will Be of Loral Benefit. The promoters say that the park will be run on a strictly orderly basis and that It will be policed free of cost to the town of Miller. People of that town are in favor of It as the Gary and Miller business men will profit from the trade to be deived from the excursionists ana employment will be given to many people, especially high school boys during the open season. .

Collections for forty years amount to 112,000.000, and : 676 missionaries have been esnt out. Prohibition Pralae Referred. At the meeting of the committee on temperance and prohibition a memorial was presented declaring the liquor traffic can best be fought by the agency of the prohibition party. This matter was relegated to subcommittee for consideration. The committee on the boot;' concern began consideration of a moss of memorials dealing with the consolidations of church periodicals and internal affairs the publishing business. A reception was given last night to

The city clerk of Gary has had legal advice to the effect that the city is restricted by the Proctor, law from reducing the license feet when it is once fixed and accordingly has refused to accept $200 and issue a license for that amount.

Although an unprecedented amount of Ice covered the lakes this spring, it has been disappearing much more rapidly than usual after a cold winter, and it is expected that there will be a heavy movement of ore early In May. The Pittsburg Steamship company, of the steel corporation. Is expected to charter vessels to move about 7,000.000 tons of ore.
