SEWER PROJECT
ADVANCED
Hammond is in her second spring
time this year. This is the exceptional autumn season that brings out the
buds in parks and gardens and gives the shrubbery and grass a tinge of green, when by all the rules of the season they ought to be In winter
clothing. Soma of the trees show
signs of leafing and seeds that fell from the nasturtiums some eight weeks
ago have already put shoots above the
flower beds that are supposed to rest for a winter season.
In the Hammond parks, where Su
perintendent Peter Fox prepared his
most delicate plants for winter many
weeks ago, there are tiny green leavs
peeping out on some of the early shrubs that have burst out here and
there from a mass of buds. In re
sponse to the warm sunshine of Indian summer the lilacs are budding In
some spots and those hardier shrubs and trees that line the streets show
green in a good many spots.
Authorities on the hardiness of
plants state that the exceptional
weather will not harm the buds. Ev
ery year there Is a certain amount of autumn budding and there is perhaps
a little more this season than usual on account of the prolonged Indian
summer, but they'll soon go to sleep
and bob up as usual In the spring.

iammontl s proposed deep sewer project and sewage disposal plant was
advanced another step in the city coun
ell last night. Reports were heard from John L. Rohde. president of the board
of public works, and City Engineer P.
J. Lyons on the progress of the negoti
atlons between the city and John W.
t-'lm, the Chisago owner of a twelve
acre site north of the Grand Calumet river and eat of Columbia avenue, for
which he wants $3,000 an acre.
The only obstacle now preventing the
immediately close of the deal Is the
satisfactory solution of a question that
has been raised by Mr. Ulm with refer
ence to the Vest boundary line of the
tract, he contending that the boundary
line is in the center of Columbia ave
nue. which is the half section line,
while the city holds that the east line of Columbia avenue Is the proper boundary line, and that payment should be
made accordingly. Question Up to Arbitrator.
The question Is Important, because
it involves three-auarters of an acre
of land, which may cost the city $2,250.
To the center of Columbia avenue the
tract contains 12.33 acres.
In hs negotiations with the board
Mr. Ulm said he would abide by the
custom, and said that he would be will
ing to accept the ruling of an arbitration committee composed of one mem
ber to be appointed by him, one by the city and the two to select the third. It Is understood triat Mr. Ulm will have Peter W. Meyn to act as his repre
sentative on this committee, and the
council last night chose Judge Law
rence Becker to represent the city.
While some of the councllmen were of the opinion that the city should not pay for property In the street, especially If he had been reimbursed when
his land was condemned for street purposes, the action of the council in selecting a representative on the committee would indicate that It would stand by the ruling of the arbitrators.
Plumhlntc Ordinance Referred.
John Kane raised the question as to the feasibility of buying land farther
east on the river, or going north to
the canal, but It was pointed out that srolnur farther east would necessitate
the extending of the deep sewer east
ward, and that going to the canal
might raise complications, due to the fact that the canal is private property. Mayor Smalley and Mr. Rohde Impressed upon the council the. necessity of arriving at some conclusion In the negotiations, as no time was to be lost to complete the deep sewer if the Schlesinger people are to be accommodated. The proposed plumbing ordinance was read by title, and Inasmuch as every councilman has a copy of it, it was referred to the committee on streets and alleys. Quite a number of the plumbers were In the audience to hear a discussion of this ordinance, and
On a $500 wager that they would
walk from Denver to New York, Mr,
and Mrs. P. L. Fison on their "honey
moon" hike, arrlvey in Hammond yes
berday evening: as told In last night's
Times at 8:30 o'clock where they spent
the night at the Maine Hotel. Leav
ing Denver penniless, with but a few
cards from which they sell on their
trip getting a small revenue, they drew
a curious crowd in front of the Maine
Hotel where they told of their adven
tures and mishaps.
Brown as a berry and hardened from
their long but Interetsing journey, they
laughingly greeted a Times repotrer
this morning, stating that they were both in the best of health and although meeting a number of hardships, were
weer enjoying every minute of their
hike.
"We were pretty well tired out on
our first couple of hundred miles," said
Mr. Fison, "but we were determined
we would not give In. Since we have
become hardened to our daily grind
we have been making good time and
are enjoying the sights and healthy
fresh air."
Instead of taking the macadam roads,
the newly weds have found that thev
could save a whole lot of time by walk
lng along the railroad tracks and will finish their journey to New York by this route. They left Hammond at 9:30
o'clock this morning by the Lake. Shore tracks and expect to make South Bend tomorrow afternoon. They did not know just where they would stop to-

With the support that John F. Kuhlman. the street commissioner, received from the board of public works this morning, he feels that he is at last in a position to swing a club over the local plumbers who have all summer long defied his orders to repair the streets where they tore them up for house connections. The board ordered that in the future
permits to tear up the streets be withheld from the dilatory plumbers unil hey make the long delayed repairs. Their excuse to the street commissioner has always been that they were short of help, but this excuse can no longer be offered in the future. The primary assessment roll for the Columbia avenue and Hoffman street sewers was placed on file. The inspectors' reports for the Bauer street section B pavement and for the Johnson street pavement were accepted and placed on file. The matetr of awarding the Oak street paving contract was laid over.
Moving Pictures of WILLIAM PAJGH'S FUNERAL
Matinee Evening Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 23, 24.
MOVING PICTURES ARE COMING Hammond is going to see itself in moving pictures on Thursday, Friday and Saturday at the Bijou theatre. This is the announcement that has been made by Manager Charles Van Pickle of this theatre. The pictures are said to have turned out very well. It is expected that hundreds of school children and others who have had their pictures taken will go out to see the pictures as soon as they are shown. The pictures were taken by the Progress Moving Picture Co., of which F. Behan was the representative. It is expected that the fire run will be very realistic.
ing a new problem. They are
in opinion, the issue being ttie best way , for effective work. On the one side j are those favoring the organization of an Associated Charities, and on the other are those who would avoid any I affiliation with the state organization as it is worked out through Associated Charities. Among the latter are some, j
however, who would compromise by having all charity work in Hammond organized under one system of government without any outside affiliation. All sides are presenting arguments to favor their contentions, which are friendly and sincere, and which throw some lieht on the growing spirit in
Hammond for the benefit of the unfortunates. Arsruinent Pro and Con. The principal argument that has been advanced thus far to The Times by those opposed to Associated Charities Is that it would he too expensive an institution, Inasmuch as it would entail the employment of a charity worker or investigator whose monthly salary would not be less than $0 a month.
Thist, they say, is money that should be spent for charity directly instead of indirect ly. The advocates of the Associated Charities answer that Hammond 1 too large a city to have the charity workers divided among themselves, and crossing each others' tracks with their charity work. They say that the cases are too many in the city to be properly
looked after by the good-hearted women who give as much of their time as they can. and trust to good luck and providence for the welfare of the balance. Charily Work Overlaps. The greatest bane of charity workers it is pointed out, is the overlapping of charity. In the past, it is said. It was not uncommon for one poor family to accept relief from more than one or
ganization to the shortcoming of another family. All charity workers in Hammond are agreed on this. The Hammond Settlement House association is another factor in this division of opinion. Its members are divided among themselves as to the best course to take. It has its staunch supporters, who want to see it keep its individuality, who admit that while mistakes may have been made that the annual report, which is soon to be made public, will show that the existence of the Settlement House was justified, and
that Its future course, is justified. Then there are those again who grant all this, hut who would nevertheless see the institution as a spoke in the char
ity wheel in the city, with others to be aadded. The Hammond Woman's club, as a body, is advocating Associated Charities, while individual members argue against the employment of a secretary or investigator, and favor of the Settlement House as the central institution.
Last night Mr. White, 3 Warren street, reported to the police that he '
came within an ace of being struck by a speeding automobile on South Hohman street while he was getting off a car. The number of the auto could not be seen.
ing a number of years, and according to Pr. Reese, who performed the operation. Mrs. Simpson will never be sickly again.
West Hammond Quiet. West Hammond is the most decent It has been in years. In the old days
the police department was inadequate i
to handle the crime and criminality thta developed in the city. Not an arrest is out of the ordinary. The justice courts have nothing to do and ennui threatens West Hammond. Ieeent women can now walk down West State street without being molested. There are fewer crimes and West Hammond is just as orderly and respectable as any city in the state of Illinois. The business of the city is being ably transacted by the new administration and It is expected that prosperity such as the village has never known will soon decend upon it.
Buys New Car.
W. C. Belman hag just made the purchase of a new car. The car is of the 1913 model and Is a beauty. Mr.
Belman has been driving the car about the city and it is greatly admired.
Reopen Heintz Block. The Helnts building, a four-story structure at the corner of Hohman street and Indiana avenue, has been reopened by Its owner, Fred Heintz, and will be used tor furniture and automobile storage purposes. Autos will be put in dead storage, and unredeemed furniture will be sold.

Gardner Voorheis, the owner, reporting the loss to the police. The following description was given: Ranger make, 1913 model, brown with white strips, handle bars turned down, motorcycle grips, Empire coil spring seat, single tube tires, stock model 12324.

Jordan was employed as a switchman on the Indiana Harbor Belt and was knocked from the moving train by a signal standard which was being erected and which hi; did not see.

TIM SAYS "NIX." Tim Enerlehart. over the phone today, denied absolutely that he is going into the theatre business in Hammond and he said that he did not think that Patsey Riley was contemplating anything of the kind. He said that he had got beyond monkeying with an investment of that kind and declared that he had enough to attend to in looking after his properties in South Gary.

Complain of Autoists. A number of complaints have been made to Chief Austgen during the past month regarding automobile drivers bringing their machines to a stop when passengers are boadring and getting off street cars. The law requires that a driver must bring his machine to a stop 15 feet from the street car. "Most of tho automobile owners obey this law," said Chief Austgen, this morning, "but there are still a few that will have to be punished before we can teach them a lesson."
Nick Lefchovltz of Gary, who was arrested by Humane Officer James Trost at Osborn Sunday afternoon, was adjudged insane yesterday morning In the city court. He was taken to Crown Point, where he will be held until he can be taken to Logansport. At first his condition was thought to have been caused by drink, the reason for his being held at the Hammond police station for several days.
