HOMELY MAN COMTEST AROUMTEREST But Feminine Relatives of Contestants Do Not Fan- , cy It a Little Bit.
Beauty and the man is a question of contention, being fought out on practical lines between alleged friends of Thomas Swanton, Art Schuts and Other Hammond men. In order to obtain a horrible example of the height of decadence in male beauty they have resorted to the ballot. The immediate aim is to determine the homeliest man in the city. The Moose, who are conducting a carnival this week, are behind it, and they are fair In the main for they are going into their own ranks for specimens. But some say that the methods employed are far from fair. Certain contriving, plotting, schemers are said to be attempting to railroad men whom they approach in the guise of friendship into the position of the homeliest men whom they approach in the guise of friendship into the position of the homeliest man. For instance, some are
of the opinion that Art Schutz is a work
of beauty, and that Thomas Swanton
is a combination of color and figure
smoothness and roundness that should
get a prize of the opposite character. But that is all a matter of conjecture Whether there is prejudice, ballot stuf
fing, wire pulling and honeydef ugilty
or not Is Immaterial. Here are the
standings: . i Charles Dubois ...855 John Busch 852 Thomas Swanton 815 Art Schut.s ...794 Charles Neidow ...... 1 700 Frank. Dahlkamp ....600 Frank Campbell 307 Thomas Shea 300

Receiving a, favorable reply, the family was told that there wouldn't be another car along for twenty minutes. The family started on the trestle and had reached the middle of the structure when the limited whistled. Harmes seized two of his children frantically and tried to get on the side of the rail, while the mother with the other child flew for the end of the trestle. She did not have time to reach her destination, but by the application of all his air the motorman was able to bring hi scar to a stop within a few inches of the frightened little party. Mr. Harmes id employed in the Inland mills at the Harbor.
