The Orpheum's Bill.

The feature of the bill at the Orphe- . um theater this week is Helen Gannon, the whistling and singing prima donna. Miss Gannon's equal as an entertainer has not been seen in Hammond in a long time. ! . To start with she is pretty and well costumed and then she is one of the best whistlers that has ever been heard In this city. She sings well and has some clever imitations. Her versatility j makes her the hit of the bill. I The Bodinl Brothers will take the place of the act which was held otir yesterday. They are musicians and are said to be very good. A new picture

will also be shown today. Yesterday was the' first day of the change which makes Sunday and not Monday the first day of the new bill. Thursday remains the first day of the mid-week change in bills. Madame Sherry played to a capacity .house at the Hammond theater last right, .-while the Orpheum was playing to three capacity houses. Hammond is getting to be a marvel as a show town and the people -are pleased with the offerings that are being made.

margin of three maples. The Longs knew they were going up against something good, but was a practice practice game In preparation for their taking part in the A. B. C. tournament to be held next month.

Battling Nelson, mayor of Hegewisch, autoblographer and erstwhile champion of the world, who is now caroming around the country, collecting more real cash than a present day title holder, has developed the automobile racing bug. Bat says he is going to turn hl attention to the racing game and recently while in Racine, Wis., he visited the automobile plant of the J. I. Case T. M.

company and tried his hand at driving

ne of the new 1913 speed creations. "Bat" took the Case 30 racer out on

the ice and opened it up and drove a measured mile at the rate of 100 miles

n hour. As he stepped from the car

he said. "Well, I guess this automobile

An unexpected crim'e wave which swept East Hammond over Saturday night and Sunday resulted in the arrest of fourteen revelers on charges of Intoxication, assault and battery, public Indecency and carrying concealed

weapons. Tne police patrol continued to stir up the dust between the Ceneral station and the Standard Steel

One case in particular was called to the attention of the police, who caused the arrest of Philip Gajeski on a charge of wife-beating. With her eyes and

face black and blue from the brutal blows inflicted by her drunken husband Mrs. Gajeski appeared before Judge Barnett this morning In a pitiful condition. In one arm she carried a 9-

months-old babe , with two other

for good nor has he sold his residence as yet as was published in a Gary newspaper on Friday night.
