The subject tomorrow evening Is as given above. Rev. Sharp seldom if ever disappoints. When the church announces something special It keeps its premise to the public. However,"; a surprise usually awaits the audience. If from the subject the public is expecting the saloon business to get a scoring, they are liable to find the subject turned to the earless church member. This aeries of sermons runs until Sept. 15 and has so far had a splendid hearing. Electric fans and cool drinking water will help to keep the audience comfortable if it is a warm evening. Everybody Is invited to attend.

COP'S STRENUOUS DAY No one can deny that Officer Bob Law ls t loyal and true blue. Nor can it be said of him that he failed to come to the aid of a friend or comrade. And yet for 'a that and "a this Bobby almost met defeat in a fight for the honor of his fellow officers yesterday. Had he not been resourceful and accepted an alternative course he would be a heart broken man today. . The police recruits of the regular department ball game were playing a team of Hammond semi-professionals

Officer Law was chosen, apparently at
random as umpire. Everything went lovely In the first Inning but when the
Grays came to bat for the second time
peculiar things happened. Balls that
passed over batters' heads were cal'd
strikes, flies that hit the turf without molestation were either declared caught
or called foul, men who slid for a base were invariably out. Panic reigned but
above all the big out-door voice of
Bobby could be heard in a general
declaration of "you're out."
With all this heroic struggle Law's favorites, lyost 4 to 0. A double header was scheduled and Bobby thoroughly
dejected was allowed to play In the sec
ond game. Ty Cobb would havfe seemed
like a paraletic with one leg if he had
competed with Bobby yesterday after non. In the first of the eighth when dark
ness called the game the score was 22 to 1. Bobby had batted about three times an Ining, substituting for a bat
ter as soon as he returned from a circuit of the bases. This was hardly regular but Robert had the crowd buffaloed. His remarkable record follows: At bat
17 times; home runs, 6; triples, 2; twobaggers7; singles 1. On one occasion Beb walked. He was credited with 9 assists and 4 put-outs. His wok was spectacular and llgitlmate.

GETTING MARY READY FOR SCHOOL
"Come hither, little Mary Anne," the doting mother said. "I have about three pounds of jute to put upon your head. I see the neighbor's daughters go to school, fixed up so fine, and I don't have it said, my dear, that you are not in line; so let me kalsomlne your face with pigments rich and rare and put some red paint on your lips and cook and curl your hair, and push you in a narrow skirt that shows your every curve, so you will get from rubbernecks the notice you deserve. And you must wear your snowy shoes that advertise your feet, and eke that crazy little hat that scares the horses on the street, for I won't have' the neighbors say that my dear little maid is not as good as any or as stylishly arrayed. Of course, you don't look like a child with all your paint and curls, but your upholstered Just as well as any other girls. Of course, you run and play, as children used to do,' but we must show the neighbor's girls they have no edge on you; of course you are like a monkey dear, of course it is a shame, but since the neighbors turn out apes I have to do the same."

The water committee of the city council are greatly Improving the water supply in Crown Point through their diligence in having the mains flushed regularly, thereby getting rid of the sediment In the water. The job was done yesterday, every water plug In the city being opened and flushed and a large amount of yellow sedi
ment removed. The-mains are cleaned about once a month now and a great difference Is noted In the purity of the water after the work has been done. Hundreds of baseball fans are contemplating going to Hammond tomorrow If the weather is favorable to
witness the Crown Point-Hammond game. The "champs" have been without a captain for two weeks since the departure of T. Bergwald, who took French leave of. the team, and Is now playing In the Illinois league. Flavin, Crown Point's star left fielder, was recently named as captain for the balance of the year, and the choice seems to meet with the favor of nearly every fan in the league. Crown Point and vicinity is about ripe for a good old-fashioned circus, it being a number of years since one exhibited here. A good circus could coin money by dropping in and showing here, and a big crowd could be guaranteed.

AT THE HAMMOND THEATER SUNDAY The story of "The Third Degree" is one to interest us all. A young nan of good parentage is under suspicion of being the murderer of a man found dead under peculiar circumstances. The police in their stupidity, seeking to unravel the mystery and anxious to fasten the guilt on some one, seize upon the boy as their victim and bring to bear the entire weight of their authority to convict him. He Is put through the "third degree" or "sweatbox" as it is often called, and after hours of this ordeal. It utter desperation and abandon, confesses to this crime of which he is innocent. , The young man's wife, "Annie Jefferson," alone remains loyal. Seeking to aid him she solicits the assistance
of his father, and, being refused, sets herself to defeat the minions of the law in their effort, to miscarry Justice. With no other resources than a. woman's intuition, ingenuity and courage, she combats them single-handed and wins' a glorious fight.
W. A. Hill, who owns a hundred feet of frontage on Hohman street at the corner of Clinton street, is heading a movement among property owners on the east side of the street, between Fayette and Douglas streets to widen the sidewalks from ten feet, the the board of public works. The original Idea was to widen the sidewalks three feet on both sides of the street and inside of the property lines, but owing to some big buildings erected on the west side this Is not practical now, and therefore Mr. Hill hopes to see the sidewalks on the east side of the street widened at least. The principal objection, it is thought, would come from the property owners north of Russell street.
