building; materials at a price far below the local market price. Its possibilities
lie in this advantage.
Hanford F. Donnelly is one of the most experienced lumbermen in the
country. He has made a fortune out of
the lumber business, and he has come
to the Calumet region for the purpose
of helping to develop it. He is associated with Milwaukee capitalists who are seeking investments in Hammond, since they learned of the location of the Northwestern Iron & Steel company, in this city. PrrnoBaH Stroaa;. Clayton B. Stiver is well known in
Hammond. He haj been employed in the United States internal revenue department In Hammond for the past thirteen years'. In that time he has made some wise investments and is the owner of some valuable flat property on the east side in Hammond. Stiver has done considerable building and is well acquainted with the details of the business. He will have charge of the home building department of the new company. With his modern ideas on the subject of homebulldlng and his practical experience along this line he is expected to be a valuable man to the company. Stiver will be secretary-treasurer. Charles F. Knowlton, the vice president of the company, is a promoter of wide experience. He has had a great deal to do with the bond business and is especially well qualified for this end of the work. One of the important features of the operations of the new company is its insurance agreement. A man who owns a lot may have a house built on it to suit him. The house may be paid for in small monthly paymnts. Th company will insure the owner of the house for the amount that is due on the property. Should the head of the family die the house and lot are presented to the widow free of encumbrance. The Insurance, of course, going to the company to cover what is remaining unpaid on the property. Under this arrangement it is possible
for a man who owns the price of a lot to build a home for his family and know that it will be theirs in the event of his early death. Without the insurance feature a home is likely to be a burden to the widow who is left with a mortgage on her hands and the responsibilities of a family. The new company enters its field w-lth the prospect of a very successful career and with the confidence of the public. The reputation of those who compose the company is beyond question, and it is believed that the growth of the company will be stimulated as a result of their activities.
Police Hold Shoot. The police held their first regular practice shoot of the season at the Lake front park yesterday, and considering that some of the officers were out of practice the scores were much better than was expected. On account
the Lake Front beach, being so in
convenient, a number of the force did not take part. The high scores of the afternoon were captured by Officer Law, but seemingly the others were not very good, as the scores were not brought back to the Central station.

Has Not Sold Property. John Pascaly today denied that he had sold l-.s business property on State street. He said that he had given an option, on the property, but that the purchaser of the option defaulted.

TIMES BUREAU. AT STATE CAPITAL.
Indianapolis, Ind. July II. Governor Marshall gave vent, at least in. part, to his feelings yesterday afternoon in regard to the decision of the Indiana supreme court in holding that the proposed "Tom Marshall Constitution" was invalid and Illegal. The Governor says the case is so important that he hopes there will be found a way to appeal the case to the United States supreme court. Speaking of the decision of the Indiana Supreme Court the Governor said: "The decision is perhaps the most important ever rendered in the United States. As handed down by the supreme court of the state, it places the Judicial power higher than the legislative or executive power, and limits, either right or wrongly, the legislative and executive branches of government. I believe In the minority opinion (in

Stork Visits Webb Street. The stork, which had wiped Webb street off its route for several years, according to reports, visited that thoroughfare this morning and a great deal of excitement was noted in the vicinity of the home of Mr. and Mrs. John P. Agnew for soma time.. The result of the visit was thai, a fine little girl was left at the Agnew home and Mr. Agnew, who Is a bailiff at the Lake superior court, is inordinately happy. Judge E. P. Ames, head of the Homewood national guard, says that Webb street is vindicated at last, no matter how the Lorimer affair turns out.
Two More Stolen. Two more bicycles were stolen in Hammond and vicinity yesterday, which makes about a total of. thirtyfive which have been taken so far this year. Several have been recovered by the police, but who the guilty person is has not been learned. Evidently the thief does not live in Hammond, but belongs to a gang of thieves who live in Chicago and wort in the dirferent cities of the Calumet region, where wheels are stolen nearly every day. The bicycles are then taken into CThicago. where they are remodeled, repainted and then sold. The first wheel stolen yesterday was from a West Hammond man residing on Sibley street, .while the second theft was reported by Frank Cole. 237 Gostlin street, who had his bicycle stolen from In front of the Lion store.

The Rev. Michael L. Byrne of La
fayette, formerly of Whiting, and his
fight to save druff victims were ths
subject of an Interesting article by W. H. Blodgett. staff correspondent of the
Indianapolis News this week. The
article In part was as follows:
'One of the men in Indiana who is
making a determined fight against
cocaine and the evils it brings, is tha Rev. Father Michael L. Byrne, priest in charge of St. Ann's church here. Father Byrne Is a practical preacher. He looks out for the bodily good .of his people as well as their spiritual welfare and it does not make any difference with him whether they are members of his church or not. When he meets a "down and outer he does not feed him on tracts or Invite him around to prayer meeting, but he put his arm under him and holds him up and maybe gives him a drink if he thinks the man really needs it. In the end the poor chap gets back to his old form and the good priest is satisfied. That is Just the way he is carrying on the fight against . the cocaine habit wherever he meets it. Relate Hammond Experience "Before taking charge of St. Anns, at Lafayette, Fthsr Byrne was priest in charge at Whiting, and In his congregation eleven different nationalities were represented. In order to get in closer touch with his mixed members, the priest obtained a vacation and went to Europe where he visited every one of the eleven countries represented In his congregaetion studied the people and their habits. " 'Do you find much cocaine used among the foreignersr he was asked.
" 'Yes and no. I found that the Slavs are great users of eocainej they use It for a stimulant, a narcotic and also for
an intoxicant.' In fact, they are the only people I ever knew that engaged
in cocaine drunks. .The stuff Is ab-
I never knew a
Pole to use it in any form. The old
original Irishman will not use it either
I mean the real old bog of Ireland
mlck he will not touch it, nor will his daughter nor his son nor his wife. But the third generation of Irish, I am sorry to say, are taking up the use of cocaine.
" The Americanized Irish, I suggested. " That's what you might call them, responded the priest, 'and there is certainly work for the church to do in the ranks of the third generation of Irish. "The cunning of these coke fiends is something extraordinary, continued Father Byrne. 'One of them a woman from Hobart was put In the jail at Hammond and the officers found that she was getting the stuff and using it and they could not tell how she got it. After a long time they found out. When her friends would come to see her she would have them take a ring to a Jeweler's under the pretense of having it fixed. The ring would come back to the Jail In a small box. Inside the box and under the ring would be cocaine, and this cocaine she would hide under the nails of her fingers and toes and It was a longtime before the officers could keep the stuff away from her."

GARY COMMERCIAL CLUB ON TRACTION Senator Frank N. Gavit of Whiting, president of the Gary & Interurban railway, addressed the Gary Commercial club upon the south side traction question last night. Mr.. Gavit repeated his promises heretofore given. If the city permits him to connect up the East Gary line at Eleventh avenue and
Broadway he will complete the extension to the bolt and screw works. Owing to the hot weather the attendance was not so large as was expected. Eight new members were elected to the club's membership and the building committee made only a partial report.

"Father Byrne Is also president of the Lafayette board of charities and the Jails and poorhouse come under his Jurisdiction. 'There Is not so much cocaine' used among the poor as you would Imagine,' he replied in answer to the question. 'In the first place, it is a very expensive habit, and very poor persons can not indulge in It. I find very little of the habit among the real poor with whom I am thrown In contact a great deal. They have not the money to buy the stuff. In our poorhouse I think there are only ones I ever saw in the Jail were transients the police had picked up. No, It is the people with
( money that Indulge themselves the
most in this naDii."Father Byrne believes with many others that there should be a strict law against the sale of the drug under any conditions, and that the law should be rigidly enforced. "In his cosy little study the Rev. Father told of the battle he is making against the most deadly of al habits and he believes that because of his efforts Lafayette is cleaner of it than most cities oi its sijpe.
