RELIGIOUS CAMPAIGN OPEHSIOMORROW Six Hammond Churches Will Exchange Pastors and Co-operate. Tomorrow night six Hammond churches begin a plan of work hitherto unknown in this city. All of these churches will have services In their own buildings at the same time and the same subjects will be treated. Furthermore the church will foster the spirit of fellowhsip by an exchange of pastors, each pastor visiting all of the churches In turn, and each church thus hearing all of the pastors. On Tuesday night all of the co-operating church will meet together In the Methodist church for a watch-night service. This meeting will begin at 1:30 and close at midnight. The service will be In three parts, first a preaching service with sermon by Rev. C. A. Smith, then a social hour, and at the close a prayer and praise service ushering In the new year. This Is called a "Fellowship Week" and la designed to foster the spirit of fellowship' among christian people of all denominations and unite all good AT Here's a reproduction from Lyman H. Howe's moving picture films . which shows one of the thrills ot a structural Iron worker's life In New York city i the ancients when they tried to build the Tower of Babel to. forbidden heights. There is, however, a vast dlf. ference between the ancient and the modern undertaking. It is the difference between a great achievement and an absolute failure. The ambitious of the ancients were defeated by a "confusion of tongues," whereas our modern towers are reared ever higher and higher because of unparalleled executive ability and efficiency. Every girder fits so exactly to the minutest frac. tion of an inch into every other girder that one might Bay that language is unnecessary. At heights that would daze the ordinary builder, the men who put the giant frameworks together walk about on the narrowest strips of iron with an "at home" feeling that Is astounding and which intensifies interest in the reproduction of Lyman H. Howe's Travel Festival, coming to the Hammond theatre on Monday. Floor upon floor is practically pushed into the air tvith a rapidity and unconscious daring that prove sensational in the animated scenes. The Howe camera men who made the films had many interesting experiences. One of them had his apparatus perched atop of a movable derrick on a building that had reached its thirtieth floor. The photographer wanted to show Broadway with its hurrying crowcrowds that looked like flies in the distance and one of the ironworkers who was being hoisted from the street. The picture taking mechanism was re. cording the scene -when one of the steel cables caught in the tripod, holding the man on the chain in mid-air for several minutes until he could franctlcally cry ! to his fellows on the ground to reverse the engines. The above illustration shows one of the trying moments. .

HAMMOND LEADS IN CASES That the business of the federal gov ernment In Hammond is reaching pro portions that make it apparent that Hammond is an important city Is hown by the following: An examination of the bankruptcy records of the V. S. District Court in Hammond shows that only fifteen cases were filed during the year 1912 ss against eighteen in 1911 and the same number lnr 1910. Of the cases filed during the present year, Hammond leads with 8; Gary has 2; East Chicago 2; Valparaiso 2; Indiana Harbor 2 and Hobart 1. The decrease In the number of cases filed shows the general prosperity of the Calumet region, and reduces the failures to almost nothing when the great volume of business of the district is taken into consideration. - "CiT TV 'l,TVi, APPLY FOR PAPERS The. U. 8. clerk's office In the federal building was kept open last evening lo receive petitions for naturalization, and at 9 p. m. the number of petitions filed had reached forty-five.

The number of Declarations of Intention filed in the federal clerk's office In Hammond since the new law went Into effect has now reached 8,925, and It is expected that the nine thousand mark will be reached within the next three. months at the present rate.

Murphy, owner of the Cubs," declared Roger Bresnahan today, speaking of the report that Murphy had practicall yclinched Bresnahan's services for three years. "1 haven't made any club any promises for niy services. I'm going to accept the best offer. I'm not going to wait for disposition of my case against the St. Louis club, but will affix my signature to a baseball document as soon as I feel I am getting the best possible offer." i Misconception Corrected. A good many ; mistakes arise from misapprehension. For Instance, a dentist advertises that he will extract teeth without pain. You suppose he means the patient will not experience pain. That !s a wrong conclusion. It Is the dentlvtt who feels no pain. Dividing the Night.
