date and in that event the corner-stone laying will probably take place on the third Sunday of June. All the church societies are co-operating In an effort "to make this a monster celebration. Out-of-town delegations of the Catholic order of Foresters and Knights of Columbus have promised to .attend and will take part in the procession which will be one of the features of, the day. Owing to the hiii cost of eatables and the immense amount of labor involved in the preparation, the ladies of the congregation have decided not to cfrve dinner. Iight refreshments will be served from booths to be erected on the vacant lot opposite the rectory instead. Invitations will be sent out to the Catholic" clergy in the neighboring cities and towns, and also in the varieua church societies. The chairmen of ' tne "different committees are quite enthusiastic over the work done so far. and indications are that " this celebration will bring together the largest gathering of Catholics in the history of northern Indiana.

filANY JOIN THE IfflLTl CLUB

Hammond Men Take Advantage of Cheap Membership Rate.

There are a large number of Hammond men who have become members of the Hamilton club of Chicago. The cost of non-residents membership in the club was 815 to May 1, and these men took advantage of that rate. Since then the rate has been increased to $100. The club has just. built

a fine new club house on Dearborn

street, opposite The Tribune building

nnd the Hammond members expect to have the advantages of one of the finest clubs in Chicago. The Hamilton club is a republic club which emphasizes the club and social features.- The next club has has a features. The new club house has a splendid banquet hall, a fine grill room, a swimming pool and other advantages that make a membership' highly desirable. It has entertained practically

"Hammond is a great town and Thb

iimes is a wortriy newspaper of such a

live," hustling community."

The above encomium Is not the out-

oursi o some politician come to our

midst irj aearch of ballots, but was remarked to a Times' reporter this morning by Lew Wells, the saxaphonistromedian now at the Orpheum. Beside being a funny man. Lew is a ardent baseball fan. Box scores he must have every evening before he gains an appetite for dinner. Some men require a cocktail, but Lew dotes on box scores. Otherwise he is unable to consume his evening's repast. Hence failure to receive the detailed statistics of the day's baseball games would in time work to the starvation of the genial entertainer. Lew had started on this path of forced fasting when, as he claims, Thb Times saved his life.

Lew was in Chicago last week when

the current pressmen's strike against

the Chicago papers was inaugurated. The first night of the strike Lew was

unable to obtain a Chicago paper with the scores. Feeble from want of food he went on at the Wilson avenue theatre and did his act. The next day he feared than another midnight would chime without his having tasted so much as a crust of coarse, black bread. Br-r-r-r, how cold the wind 'is tonight, Jack. Then out ef the gloom that hovered about him there penetrated hope, joyful hope in the form of the special sporting extra of The Times thousands of copies of which have been sold In Chicago every evening since the strike began. Clutching the precious .sheet to his breast Lew made his way to the first caravansary and there did partake of sundry viands much to the delight of the inner man.

Biggest Tax Sum EverOwing to the big accumulation o

mail in the city treasurer's office which

must first be gone through with before a balance can be struck, William Wolter, the city treasurer, is unable to give the total amount of city taxes collected at this time. He has stacks of letters containing checks for taxes, but on the whole the city will be richer than any previous year, because of the increased valuation. Mr. Wolter is of the opinion that the

next delinquent list will have fewer names than some of the previous ones, as the public is beginning to awake to the necessity of paying its taxes promptly.
