Tep, Lee's headquarters at Gettysburg as it looks today. Bottom, Gettysburg battlefield as seen today from Little Bound Top.

THE people of Gettysburg1, which j lay almost between the armies of the north and the south, were awakened on the fateful morning of July 3. 1863. by the roar of artillery from Culp's Hill, just southeast of town. This knoll in the woods, at first held by the Federals but later abandoned by them, had been occupied by the Confederates under Johnson on the night of July 2. After seven hours of fierce bombardment and daring charges, the entrenchments were regained, the Confederates compelled to retreat. " But the most desperate and spectacular onset of the three days' fighting the charge of the Confederates under Pickett on Cemetery Ridge was yet to tome. At 1 o'clock in the afternoon thre was a terrific outburst from one hundred and fifty Confeder

ate guns, and the whole crest of the ridge, for two miles, was a line of flame. The Federals withheld their fire for some minutes then their cannonading burst forth, bringing terrible destruction to the Confederates. An eye-witness declares that the whole sky seemed filled with screaming hells. For nearly two hours the cannonad

ing continued. The loss on both sides' was appalling. Finally the Confederates ceased their fire, and the Union army prepared for the more deadly charge of the infantry, which it felt was sure to follow. The Federals had not long to wait, When the cannon smoke drifted away there was revealed fifteen thousand of Longstreet's corps emerging from the wooded crest of Seminary Ridge under the command of Ge neral Fickett on the right and General Pettigrew on the left. The . distance to the Federal lines was a mile:. For half that distance the Confederate troops marched gaily, with colors flying. Then came the burst of Federal cannon, and great gaps were torn in the Confederate

racks. Despite Confederate losses, the brave southerners marched on. When they came within mustket range Han

cock s infantry opened a terrific fire, but still the attacking force pressed

on. The assault of the. Confederates was almost irresistible. They pressed into the sea of flame and the first line of Federals was driven back. A stone wall behind them gave protection to the next Federal force. Here

the Confederate loss both in officers and men was frightful. Pickett soon saw that he had entered a death trap.

Federal troops from all directions rushed in upon him. The fighting was hand-to-hand and clubbed muskets and bayonets were the weapons of warfare. The Confederates were outnum

bered. They began surrendering in masses. Soon it was recognized by both sides that the Confederates had

betn beaten.

As the remnant of the gallant division returned to the works on Semi

nary Ridge they were met by General

Lee.v "It was all my fault," he said.

"Now help me save that which re

mains."

The battle was over. The losses in

men had been appalling about twenty-five thousand on each side. The dreams of the south had been shatter

ed. Sadly the Confederate commander

led hi.j forces back to Virginia.

It was the beginning of the end. On

the very same day that Gettysburg

was viron by Meade, arrangements

were made for the surrender of Vicks-

burg to Grant. Not only the north and

the south, but foreign nations as well.

felt that it would be drily a matter of

time when the Confederacy must fall.

controversy of which the public has

ben rightly informed through the Lake County Times may be officially con-: firmed this communication is made for publication. The Columet lodge of Odd Fellows No. 601 has always paid cash for city improvements and never before objected to anything that the city thought advisabl to do. Al improvments have ben paid out right in cash. It is evident that the board believes that the lodge would stand for anything in ordring the walk in front of the State street building ripped up without notifying the lodge. Two deliberate falsehoods were made the other evening. It was stated that the published notice concerning the three foot extension of Kast State street walks contained a clause in which the city reserved a right to replace walks found unfit. This was in

vestigated by Attorney E. G. Sproat and found to be untrue. It was stated that the lodge was notified by post card of the city's in tention to up the old walk. No such communication was received by any trustees or officer of the lodge. These two statements and an inferance that the lodge as a body were entering polwere untrue. As the official organ of the administration said, "The city can not make fish of one and flesh of another." That is Just what was done. The walk in front of the Odd Fellow building was as good as it was on the morning after Contractor Alhborn put it in. Frost

caused it to crack then and the surface has been defaced since but the body intact. The lodge has repeatedly offered to replace it but the city found It

ly because of the defaced surface. The lodge is able to build its own walks. When the construction of a new building starts It will be necessary to rip up the walk just laid by the city in order that a foundation may be placed at the curbing. The trustees of the lodge have not had the following things explained to them: Why were they not notified by the city? Why was a solid twenty-two inch

curbing replaced by a curbing?

Paper.

Hammond, Ind., June 30. Editor Times: I have noticed In your issue of

last week repeating the statement of

one Alderman X. Now I don't recol

lect that I have ever made any of those statements to him or any other man that 1 was too busy in Indiana Harbor or any other place. I have no property outside of the city of Ham

mond, Ind., I have no business In Indi

ana Harbor or East; Chicago. In fact,

I challenge any man to prove any dif

expense, but they are the ones that give my men the most work. In my conversation through the telephone

with Mr. Schuts the name of Indiana Harbor and East Chicago was not

mentioned. However, I informed him that I had been very busy here lately,

having a large gang to repair Indiana boulevard. I have had unloaded for

this job over sixty cars of stone, and sprinkling and rolling down same; another gang repairing the streets here

in the city, and another repairing

Kennedy avenue at Gibson, another

force on sewer cleaning, and a force

of six to eight men cleaning the streets and getting them erady for oiling. Then there are always some smaller Jobs that immediately require

my attention, and that it was impossible for me at the present time to inspect every garbage box in the city, but wherever any complaints had been

made I have immediately attended to them. Mr. Schutz wanted me arrested because he violated an ordinance. Now I want to say right now if the people of Hammond would refrain from filling their garbage boxes with paper and rubbish and also stop abusing the garbage gatherer we would not have

any trouble. This year 1 have had a

standing order with the teamsters' union for men driving the alley carts,

but no one wants the Job. The good

men that I have had have quit their

Jobs because they were criticised and

others are ready to follow. Now what will become of it if this is kept up by

your paper criticising these men and

myself? Tours respectfully, JOHN F. KUHLMAN, Street Commissioner.

BY MAIIJE HA IX. New York. July 1. This is the sea-

eon or the tut) rrocKs ana never nas 11 been exploited with such success. It seems as if seven out f every ten dresses seen in the shops are of wash

materials, and the fabrics whilh are given first place on the counters are of the tub variety.

Most of the summer dresses are

made on the one-piece model, and they

re extremely graceful. Simplicity

rules in the desipn and development of these dresses, but one is allowed almost any liberty in the matter of dress

these days.

Because they are made in one piece s no reason why the new summer

frocks should not lend themselves all

of the new skirt and waist arrangements. For the linen dress, however, the two-tier skirt is the most popular effect, and sometimes this is galntd by adding to the length of the blouse by means of adding a peplum to the belt, than by really building the skirt in two parts. " , Evening frocks made of sheer handkerchief linen are swarthed In exquisite laces and weighted with embroideries. There is a vogue for ruffled effects which amounts to almost a craze. Sometimes two are employed

instead of one. but the best Is that

where one ruffle falls or tunic to keep it from "blowing," and as the idea is to have it follow the lines of the figure without flatting the ensemble, the rim of roses is a pretty and serviceable garnish. Batiste and mousseline are also used for many afternoon and evening

frocks. Very expensive models are shown in hand-paietd tulle, but again one finds their counterparts in exquisitely printed linen lawns, organdies and batistes. Unless one has an almost unlimited income it is really unwise to spend much on clothes, for

the styles change faster than ever, and a frock that has served its wear

er for three months is generally con

sidered old. In buying good laces and embroideries there is always the ad

vantage of being able to use them

again, yet one finds even splendid imitations for these.

-lost of the linen frocks are of the one-piece order, even though skirt and blouse are made separately, then Joined under a narrow belt of the same material or a contrasting fabric. Standing out prominently among the extremely simple designs in is the linen frock of dark color with vest, collar and cuffs of pure white. Instead of being buttoned as most vests are, the latest frocks show this little accessory laced together afer the manner of a sailor's vest. The cuffs are treated in the same way. Buttons continue very fashionable for tub frocks as well as non-washable models. Although this article deals principally with linen dresses, the designs described are easily duplicated in silk, satin or any of the more expensive materials of the season. Perhaps one of the reason why linen Is so popular is because It Is inexpensive, if one desire it so to be.

On the other hand. It is easy to pay as high, as $2 a yard for some of the

Imported linen fabrics. When it comes checks and stripes, words fail utterly, for It seems as if the genius of the manufacturers will never expend itself In the designing of these materials. There are a thousand and one different checks in as many sizes and colors and every one is pretty. Of course one catches the color scheme of the material from the background or the most decided stripe in the pattern, but other tones are worked in most skillfully and afford inspiration for handsome decorative schemes and color combinations.

Now this is absolutely in violation of the city ordinance. His garbage box is also in violation of the city ordinance. I refer you to ordinance No. 11, section 601 and 607, pages 204 and 206. It says: "Persons not complying with the provisions of this

ordinance must clean their own garbage boxes In a sanitary manner," and section 602, "Said garbage vessels shall not hold less than ten gallons and not more than twenty gallons," and section 606, "No person shall place in any garbage vessels stone, ashes, tin dishes or crockery." Of eourse this means rubbish and paper as well. The city

garbage gatherers are not compelled to gather the paper thrown out by the

of Cliffton, and a somnambulist, was

Raymond Fulp of Taylorsville, he

walked into the latter's bedroom and was mistaken for a burglar by Fulp. who pounced upon him. The assault awakened Norton and he, thinking that his assailant was a burglar, fought, as h. thought, for, his life.

appear for the ceremony. The Grand lodge then marched in and the impres

sive Masonic dedicatory ceremony was rendered by Grand Master Hanan and the past Masters of the East Chicago lodge, supplemented by musical numbers ably rendered by a quartet under the direction of W. J. Funkey, Jr. Mr. George H. Sommers acted as accompanist. After the dedicatory ceremony the grand lodge returned to the temporary lodge room and the third floor and closed. Then a splendid program of speeches and music was given. The principal speech of the evening was made by Grand Master Hanan, who

took for his subject "A Friend to Man." He said that a true Mason was a friend to man; that every Mason recognized the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man; that every Mason

realized the truth of the precept, "I

am mv Brother's keeoer." That Mason

approached these dangers they heard

the roaring of the terrible Charybdis

and becoming fasciniated and attracted

to the Charybdis lost sight of Scylla

who, as narrated by Ilomor: " Stooped to seize her prey.

Stretched her dire jaws and swept six

men away. Chiefs of renown: loud echoing shrieks arise, I turn to view them quivering In th. skies. , They call and aid with outstretched arms implore. In vain they call! Those arms are stretched no more." He Insisted that every Mason, like Achilles, had a vulnerable spot and that It is not becoming for on Mason to unduly condemn another for that on'e weakness but to aid and assist th.

edifice for Masonic use. j At the close of the Grand Master's address, the Whiting Masonic band ren- !

dered two very pleasing numbers. The assemblage then repaired to the ban-

quet hall on the first floor where a ; very pleasing luncheon wn served by

the ladles of the Eastern Star. The speaking program was continued In !

the banquet room with Past Master Abe

Ottenhelmer presiding as toastmaster.

Th. toastmaster called on Past Grand

Master Lincoln V, Cravens who responded with a very fitting address. Short

speeches were also made by Frank N. Gavlt of Whiting, J. H. Griesel of
