Country Club's

Adding to the splendid list of society :iety I snsl- J events for which it has been respo ble since Its inception the Hammond Country club last night gave tts first annual golf dinner, which will hereafter mark the official opening of the golf season. With but two days preparation the sports and games committee labored hard to make tht function a success, and their efforts were warmly praised. Covers were set for over 100 people and Mr. W. D. Ray, chairman of the committee, had charge of the program and presided in a most acceptable manner. The tables were set In quadrangular fashion In the big hall and prettily decorated with stacked golf clubs, tied In white and green ribbon. The engraved silver cups won by contestants in last year's matches were placed over the mantel on th large fireplace In full view of the diners. The favors were miniature golf sticks, dainty caddy bags and mache golf balls enclosing candies. Enclosed by the tables were potted plants surrounding the musicians. Several out-of-town guests attended the affair. The program itself one perhap one of the most diversified and entertaining that has been given by the Country club. It was a testimonial to the talent of Toastmaster Ray in originality. At the close of the five-course dinner table fireworks were exploded and fur-' nished a novel pyrotechnic diversion. Following the invocation by Rev, Smith, Toastmaster Ray called attention to the fact that for the first time In the history of the club President A. M. Turner was not present to preside. He requested that all kindlyrise and for a moment of quiet rever ently pay tribute to the late Mrs. Turner, the president and his bereaved family. The program in full was as follows: Music: "Its Always Fair Weather. tiuo Toastmaster's Introduction. W. D. Ray Invocation Rev. C. A. Smith Tribute to President Toastmaster Salutation. Vice President H. E. Sharrer Reading: "Fore and Away Mrs. T, W. Oberlin Presentation of Medals and Acceptances D- Hay (10 CLUE TO TRAIL OF Would-Be Assassin Is Still at Large and the Police Are Puzzled . There is no clew to the would-bo assassin who shot and wounded the six and seven-year old son and daughter of John Hamilton on Wednesday night. Yesterday at the request of the par ents the little ones were removed from the Mercy hospital to the Hamilton home at 2383 Adams street. There is some improvement in the condition of Devan but his sister, Lilian, passed a restless night. Mystery Surrounds Shooting. The shooting of the two tots is one of the most mysterious cases in the annals of the Gary police. Devan and Lillian were about to retire for the flight when they heard their dog bark ing. It was In the backyard but believing the animal to be at the front of the house the children went to the front door and stood in the hair-opened doorway and called to the dog. The answer was a shot which dropped the boy. It was followed by a second bullet, which felled the girl. The bullet was fired from a revolver and tHe wotild-be slayer was evidently lurking behind the trees In the front of the home.. Both children were wound ed In the thighs, near the artery known as the common femoral. There is & chance for their recovery providing lock jaw or infection doesn't develop, states the attending surgeon. Dr. M. . Hopper. LARGE GRAIN ELEVATOR IS PLANNED BY B.&O.
