Fire, which is believed to have been
of incendiary origin, last Saturday
night, caused several hundred dollars' worth of damage on the new Schlitz building, on Forsythe avenue, Gibson. The two-story frame structure had been built to replace a larger one, which burned down last year as a result of a mysterious nature. Work men at Gibson were the first to notice the fire, and went to the building, which is unoccupied, to extinguish the flames. Later their forces were augmented by ,-Billy" Nlll and his crew from fire station No. 4. The building is the property of the Schlitz Brewing company, and while it had no tenant, it was ready for' occu
pancy. The evidence showed almost
conclusively that arson was intended, as the firemen found newspapers satur
ated with coal oil in partition walls
and in some of the roooms.
Last year a larger building, on the
same site, was burned and several oc cupants had narrow escapes.
While Chief of Police Austgen and
Fire Chief Peter Dllschneider have no clue to the "fireburg" it Is thought that his action was prompted by revenge and
spite.
On Fishing Trip.
Jonn Mccune, Charles Hicks,
Lowenstein and Carl Ames will
Hammond Sunday for Mercer
where they will spend two weeks on
fishing trip.
They will camp out in the wilderness
and fish for bass and muscallonge. Last
year Hughes Graham caught the larg
est muscallonge that was taken in Wis
consin that year.
The members of the fishing party all
have the fishing fever and judging from the reports that have been received from camp the fishing must be excellent.
E AT PARK
AROUSES CRITICISM
Spectators charge that there was
open betting and pool making at a bail game that was held in Harrison Park
n Hammond yesterday afternon. A
egro team from Gary played a team
from Hammond.
The game was marked by much
wrangling and bystanders said that th Gary negroes conducted themselves in
much more orderly manner than the
ome team.
There was no police officer on the
rounds and wrangling and flgh
haracterised the game. The gambling
feature of the game was the most
rominent.
There is a good deal of criticism of
the manner in. which the ball games
re conducted in Harrison Park on
Sunday. It is U policy of the. board
f public works and the city officials
to encourage the general public to get
much pleasure out of the park a
they can but it is not believed that
they will stand for gambling and dis
orderly conduct.
In the opinion of the residents of th
eighborhood the ball players ought to
conduct themselves in an orderly man
er or be denied the right to play in
the park.
One spectator described the Ham
mond team as a bunch of bullies and
said that the game was a disgrace to
the city. There was a large crowd of
men and women at the game.

EAST SIDERS
HAVE KICK COMING
People living on the east side are
complaining about the city dump nui
sance that Is maintained by the city o
Columbia avenue and the river. Here are piled up hundreds of loads of alley
pickings, which are being burned by
slow fire, the smoke of which causes the nuisance to the residents In the neigh
borhood. As far as the smoke is carried it Is extremely offensive to the smell, it all depending on the wind which section of the city suffers. The
dump is furthermore a fly breeder and
n the summer time the fly pest is as
bad as the smoke nuisance-.
The east side people are looking to
the board of health, the street and alley
department and their representatives in
the council to abate the nuisance.
