The Bast Chicago club has booked the Chicago Union Giants (colored! for. this Sunday, May 25, for the second time this season. After a week or two the Giants hit the road and travel all through the United State and they have asked for a return game, claiming that with the addition of a few new players they will offset the 6 to 3 defeat East Chicago gave them - a few Sundays ago before the largest crowd that ever saw a ball I game In East Chicago. The manager of the East Chicago baseball team claims to have chal lenged Hammond, Whiting, Crown j Point and also Gary for a series of , from three to five games, to be played j one game at each town and the third ; game at the town that had the larg- j est attendance, but up to date Manager , Pedersen has not been able to come to i terms with Crown Point or Gary. The j excuses are, wait a few months until we get going; or, when we, get a few j mere players to fill up a few holes on the team then we will be ready. Man ager Pedersen is willing to play these towns or any white semi-pro club on a winner take all basis. The Hammond baseball club Is the only one that is willing to play East Chicago a series of three games at present. The managers have agreed upon this, the first game to be played ' Decoration day. May SO, 3 p. m., at East Chicago; the second at Hammond park in Whiting, and the third at the park that haa had the largest attendance. This will be an important series and is apt to be a hard blow to the losing club, as the two managers have agreed on having the winner of each game take the entire receips, which will make the games fought for CANNED GOODS Four 3-1 b Cans of Tomatoes, 4 of Corn, 4 of Peas, String Beans, Kidney Beans, Hominy or Pumpkin, fllE" one dozen cans iUv DOMESTIC SARDINES, in oil Q r or mustard, six tins for Cm ' 3 POUNDS FANCY JAP RICE AND :E AND 25c BEAUTIFUL TEA SPOON.

Advance agents for the McLaughlin Carnival company were in Crown Point yesterday arranging to book their show here next week beginning on Monday. The company carries about sixty people besides the usual crowd of concession men and hangers-on that usually follow up an attraction of this kind. The advance men were here arranging for the licenses and advertising for the attraction and claim the show will exhibit here If their present plana carry out. It Is quite likely that the Hoffman ground west of town will be chosen as the site for the attraction, which will stay" a week If business warrants. The carnival com-

all the harder. Two unbeaten teams hooked up at Chicago laBt Sunday, the American Giants, champion colored team of the world, and the East Chicago club. The colored Giants won, 6 to 1. The game was hard fought through out and was most interesting, more so in fact than the score would indicate. The 'Indiana boys started off right and it only took two innings before they scored a run, and they held the lead at 1 to 0 for three innings, when with two out and two on bases In the fourth Brading misjudged a fly ball and dropped it, letting the three runners score, Lindsay, the Giants' atar pitcher, tightened up and held the East Chlcagos scoreless, while the Giants piled up a few more runs on a hit, a pass and two errors. Cy Young pitched a splendid game, allowing the Giants but five clean hits and two scratch hits, and if the fielding had been good would have given them the toughest battle they have had for a few years, Ted Sullivan, the White Sox scout, sat in a bog throughout the game and spoke to Cy, trying to induce him to Join Frank Chance's New York highlanders. Cy showed no trace of ner vousness, but pitched a game that was a credit to him. A fewof the other players must have thought Ted was looking them over, judging from the nervousness shown at critical stages of the game, or it might have been the howling mob of four thousand some odd fans that rat tied the players.

'Esmeralda." the comedy-drama giv en by the members of the senior class of the Crown Point high school last evening at Central Music hall, drew aJ falr-sised crowd to witness one of the best amateur productions ever at tempted by the local school. The piece. four act comedy drama, was extra ordinarily well acted, and although the lines and parts were heavy enough for professional "actors, the well-drilled students spoke their parts and acted their roles in a surprisingly clever manner for amateurs. It would be' hard and unfair to pick out any of those participating In the production for special mention, each and every one showing and delineating a special talent in the various roles assumed. The production was a success In every way and the young thesplana and those whq managed and drilled them are to be congratulated on the successful rendition of the comedy. The high school orchestra gave sev eral enjoyable selections which were also well received by the audience. Following is the cast as appeared In the production last evening: Mr. Elbert Rogers, a North Carolina farmer, Foster Bruce; Mra Lydia Rogers, his wife; Marguerite Love; Miss Esmeralda Rogers, their daughter, Hazel Hall; Dave Hardy, a young North Sarollna farmer, Fred Henning: Mr. Estabrook, a man of leisure, Claude Pettibone; Jack Desmond, American artlat in Paris.
