The net profits will ha not known until all the bills have been rendered. It Is estimated, however, that the net proceeds will not be less than $1,500, and they may reach $1,800. This money will be put into the bufldlngr fund for the new Elks' home. The event drew crowds from all over the county. girl wixs r.Ejrrs rink.

because of the large crowd. The music

village did a rushing business, and the "red hot" stand in the village did

equally well.

Not a single Incldont occurred to mar

the pleasure of the evening. Every

body was out there for the fun and the

crowd was rooi! natured.

The four Inntng ball game between

the Hammond and East Chicago Elks

was won by the East Chicago team

drafted "Jimmy" Clabby into their ranks, and It was his powerful stick work that drove in a winning run, the

score being 2 to 1.

The weather for the occasion waa ideal. The Elks on the various committees worked like vTrojans, and It was their own personality which they injected into the picnic, which was such a large factor in making It an

unparalleled success.

Lurid Yarn Told by Cheap Hero, Who Says He Was Forced to Wed.

Francis Flynn of Chicago is a candidate for the Ananias dunHe claims he was married by a fKe justice of the peace at Crown Point. The thrilling adventures of the hero of the motion picture scenario, who becomes entangled in a chain of circumstantial evidence and is forced at the point of papa Indian's tomahawk to marry an Indian squaw, have nothing In the line of thrills on the matrimonial experience of Francis Flynn. The difference Is purely one of local color, and, anyway, an Indian with a tomahawk is not half so dangerous as a brother who owns a saloon and carries a six-shooter. To all of which Hero Francis testified yesterday In the bill he brought In the Circuit court to

While 'the officers are all well known Hammond ladies the organization will have Jurisdiction all over the county and has Its charter from the state for this territory. Anybody who is Interested in the work of the humane society will be welcome at the meeting, which will be held at the office of Dr. Scull at 7:30 in the evening. The advent of an active humane society In Lake county has been a dire

commonplace street of the South Side Nov. 10, 1910. All unaware of the am

bush that had been laid for him, Francis that day left his home at 6507 Tale avenue, he relates, and sauntered happily down the street. He rounded a corner, and suddenly his assailants were about him. Big Brother O'Shaughnessy, keeper of the saloon and six-shooter, leaped upon him.

while Sister Francis hissed out the mysterious words: "That's him!" Whereupon the burly saloon owner displayed his trusty weapons and, after issuing a hoarse command for silence, bade the beset hero: "Youse come wit me!" The trail followed by the two banditti and their captive led to Crown Point, Ind. And the end was not yet. "A pretended Justice of the peace, the disgruntled husband recites, "was asked by the brother to marry me and his sister. There I stood and there stood she, and there stood thebrother with his hand on the butt of the re volver he was concealing in hi bosom.
