The board of public works this morn

which will give them a record of three
out of four games played. In the past games the local high school have had poor support in attendance and they ask the fans to turn out and give them a little help. .
Looking for Work Drunk.
Frank McDonald, 310 Conkey avenue, was arrested by Fick and Lamme at
State and Hohman last night, where he was found in an intoxicated condition and was disorderly. He was held at the police station over night and plead guilty before Judge Barnett in the city court, receiving a fine of $1 and costs? amounting to $11. McDonald stated that he had come to Hammond yesterday from New York City and was looking for work. He asked the court to show him leniency, but as he was disorderly he will be taken to Crown Point today in default of payment.
THIEVESARE BUSY.
M. Rothschild reported to the police
this morning that thieves attempted to gain entrance into the building over the Model Clothing store some time last
night by removing one of the window panes In the skylight. The glass was
not broken and it is evident that the
thieves ted to gain entrance into the
offices of the Hammond Loan & Guar
antee company, which was broken into
and robbed about four months ago. Nothing was found missing this morning and it is thought that the thief was
scared away.
Entrance was also gained in the news
agency of F. B. Hall at 143 Sibley
street some time during the- night by removing a window. Luckily Mr. Hall did not leave any money in the build
ing and with the exception of some
check books nothing valuable was taken. . ' - ' "
Invited to Meeting. The members of the Hammond Chamber of Commerce are invited to be present at the general meeting that will be held at the Lake superior courthouse on next Monday. A number of impor
tant matters are to be taken up for
consideration.
Another Wheel Stolen.
Bicycle thieves got another wheel
yesterday afternoon when they took a
machine belonging to John Socyk, 150th
place. West Hammond, from in front of the Lion store. Socyk went inside
to make a purchase and when he came
outside he found the bicycle missing. The following description was given to the police: Red frame, white rims on wheels, turned up handle bars, spring seat.
GEORGE "SADDENS HOMES."
New York. May 16. The New
York World asked George Ade
whether he was a candidate for the republican nomination for governor of Indiana. . This Is the answer wired from Brook, Ind.: "I have no wish to be governor of my beloved state. I have even less of a wish to be a candidate for governor. At the same time I have no earthly objection to being mentioned for the governorship. "During thev present rainy spell, which has delayed the planting of corn, we sit around and mention our friends for the governorship. It is our principal Indoor sport. Everybody's doln' it, doln' it, doln' It. Sometimes a man with a particularly keen Insight Into the possibilities of the autumn, mentions an enemy. "The suggestion that I might under certain unforseen conditions become a candidate, has brought mirth and laughter into many homes lately saddened by the internal dissensions of our party. It has caused no Inconvenience to friends and has not
alarmed others. It will permit the biographer to say in my obituary
notice, 'In 1912 he was mentioned
for the governorship.' Therefore, it
is a good thing. "After all, I would rather be men
tloned for the governorship than be
elected governor, and then keep on
being mentioned. With this kind ex
planation I shall retire to the storm
cellar. "GEORGE ADE."
TWO GAMES IN
GRAMMAR LEAGUE Only two games were played in the
Hammond Grammar School baseball league. Wallace sprung a surprise and won their first game of the eeason, ad
ministering a stinging defeat to the Washington boys to the tune of 17 to 6.
Lincoln kept up their winning streak
by defeating Irving 13 to 4. The games between Lafayette and Riverside and
between Washington end Lafayette ma
jor ;teams were postponed " on account of rain.
The last games of the leagues will
be played on next Saturday. The championship of the minor division will be decided when Lafayette and Lincoln clash at Harrison park at 9:30 a. m.
Both teams have won all their games
and a close game is looked for.
