They could not do otherwise when young Polish mothers have looked into the blind eyes of infants and have at last realized the real cause of the terrible calamity that has been visited upon their homes. And the men who have conducted these places. The. property owners who have profited by conditions there, while the entire community was beins corrupted still hope to continue their nefarious business.
Tho uprising of the community can now be. explained. The death of Ksther Harrison was a blessing to her and to

place was a veritable plague spot and complained." Another doctor said. "The health authorities assume the ridrht io protect the community from other contascious diseases, but when it comes to fighting the most terrible of them all they do nothingr. There is no way of knowing the terrible effect of the presence of this piaprue spot on the cities of Hammond and West Hammond. "Murders and suicides have called attention to a condition, but they have rot revealed one-half of the horrors that may be directly traced to West Hammond.
"Nine out of ten men would be discreet enough to avoid places of this character If they were sober, but they go into the saloons and get drunk and in that condition caution is disarmed." It is estimated that it will take five years to eradicate the influences of West Hammond from the city of Hammond. Thtre are said to be scores of Hammond men today who are a menace to the community and ought to be isolated like the lepers. So prolific has the Hammond field become that out-of-town physicians have catered to the business here. Others have set themselves up in business and made a specialty of these cases. And the good women who are giving their lives to the work of eliminating the dives knew of these conditons. A mstaken sense of modesty has prevented the revelation of the awful conditions as they have existed. But they are giving up their time

The. feature of this ga.me was the batting and base-running of Clark. This man seems to be able, to steal any base that he sets his heart on. The infield set all sorts of traps to try and catch him off the bases, but without avail. There was mor rooting at esterday's gomes than has been displayed in the Harbor ball park In many a day. There was a big crowd over fig'in
Hammond, and how they did pull for their favorites. And it looked for six innings as though the single score that the visitors made in the first was going to be sufficient to win the game. At the beginning of the second game a rumor was circulated through the crowd that Gary had lost by a score of S to 3. A great roar went up from the Hammond crowd, and the mistake was never discovered until after the games were over.

A large crowd of Hammond and Indiana Harbor fans saw tho doubleheader on the 'tatter's grounds yesterday, in which Hammond lost the first contest and incidentally the championship, by a score of 6 to 1, but won the second game, which was a six inning affair, by a score of 4 to 0. The first game threatened' to break up in a riot, when Iaugherty, the first man on the Indiana Harbor lineup pitched came dangerously close to his head and he had to make a quick getaway. Paugherty seemed to be laboring under the impression that 1-ici gman had deliberately sought to bean him. so he stepped out of the box and yelled at Bergman that tf he hit him with the ball he'd bounce a bat off his head. The next ball pitched proved to be a strike, but the third hit Daugherty in the slats. I'augherty
Immediately leapt into the diamond j with his bat. attempting to hit the
; pitcher. Umpire Kelly stepped in be
tween thern in time to prevent the blow from falling squarely on Bergman. He took part of it on his own shoulder and Bergman received the interrupted blow- on the arm. Sergeant Parker rushed out on the field and other players surrounded the contestants, and everything was settled In a short while and the game proceeded. Hammond drew first blood in the first inning after two men had struck out. Clark was piven his base on balls and very promptly stole second. Maybaum placed a single over second and Clark scored, but the, batter was thrown out at third in an effort to purloin that sack. The locals waited until the sixth inning before registering. Hilgendorf hit a nice one to center field for two bases after Daugherty had gone out. pitcher to first. Lynch was passed. A. Walsh, the reliable, singled cleanly to center, scoring Hilgendorf, Lynch going to third. Loud and continuous applause as the score was tied. O'Brien then sacrificed with a long fly to center field, scoring Lynch, the ball on the throw-in to catch him at the home plate, hitting him in the leg and bounding ever near the bleachers. Walsh then followed the captain In. In the next Inning the home team scored again when Sternberg opened with a single, stole second and scored on Red Walsh's single to left field. They made two more in the eighth, making a total of six in all. The features of the game were P.radshaw's pitching, letting the Hammonds down with three hits; Kaufman's two twobaggers and the wonderful running catches of Daugherty in left field. The second game found Marceaux and Henning of Crown Point opposing one another. In the second inning Marceaux struck out the side, one. two. three, and during the six

The school population of Hammond is provided with first-class facilities. There is no reason w hy any member of that population should go through life without a first -class practical trainin, whether it be in tne grades, the high school, the. school ot law, or the business college: The September openings thus far everywhere indiate largely increased interest in attendance and enrollment. The Chicago Business college is especially permitted Lo announce a most encouraging increase this month; already the fall enrollment for the night and uxy sessions has run up to 150 entries, w!tn a prosp.icvivj increase for tho coming week of at least 15 per cent more. Tr-e outlook for the year 1912 andl313 is excellent. This school, inasmuch as it is open twelve months in
the year, is in a position to encourage entries a I any time., day or evening.
The sarr.c able corps of teachers are in charge of day and n'glu schools, uslngr the same text books, and teaching the same courses of study. Every students receives individual instruction. The student is free to elect his course of study, combined or single. There will be no change of marager or teachers. Their experience, education, skill and enthusiasm in their several lines of work will be consecrated in the future, as in the past, to the interest of every student who enters the school, all other things, being equal, may be received as an assurance of the pupils success. The Chicago Business college Is not attempting to do everything, but to do one thing well. Namely, to fit young ladles and gentlemen who come to It with good accurate English foundation, for prartleal htilnrM lf. It may be stenography, bookkeeping, mechanical drawing, commercial teaching, or civil service. This is the sole purpose of the Chicago Business college,. The education you get .in this successful school will fit you for business, and its employment department will get you the position, and do it !n the shortest possible time, consistent with adequate preparation.

FIRE LADDIES
WINTHE GAME
As a result of the police and fire
men's baseball game at the H. A. A. park yesterday afternoon, in which
the fire fighters came out on top by
the large end of a 14 to 4 score, the
police department is being annoyed by
a host of little glooms today, while
the fire boys are wearing some of
those smiles that won't come off. "By right of conquest," as the fire
men term it. they claim that they have the buldge on the police as they won the od game of a three-game series
and yesterday not only demonstrated
that they could come back, but won
the honor and distinction of sendlne
the police down into oblivion. But
the police ere not satisfied and ask that one more opportunity be given them to prove yesterday was an off day for them. The rivals opened the fray at 3 o'clock sharp and durlncr the first three innings the police only poled one run. while the firemen had a swatfest all of their own and gathered eleven runs. After that the police tightened up and the next six innings saw the firemen score four more runs, while the police with a score too large to overcome, poled three more. Officer Malo of the police department won the distinction of making the only home run of the day, but the fireman claim that if the ball had not been lost in the weeds it would not have counted
Short Session. The board of public works this morn ing held a short session, a sewer ira
