Comments of World-Famous Men on the CHAUTAUQUA Keep in Mind that Our City is to Have a Great Seven-Day Chautauqua Program This Season.
Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, ExPresident of the United States says: The chautauqua is the most distinctively American thing in this country.

Hon. William Jennings Bryan, Secretary of State, says:
"The chautauqua affords one of the best opportunities now presented the public speaker for the discussion of questions of interest to the people. The audience is a select one and always composed of the thoughtful element of the community, and as they pay admission they stay to hear. I believe that a considerable part of the progress that is now being made along the line of moral and political reforms is traceable to the influence of the chautauqua."
A "I 1 'i

Dr. Frank W. Gunsaulus, the WorldCs Greatest Preacher and President of Armour Institute of Technology, says:
"The chautauquas have become a great people's university. They are among the greatest feeders for our colleges and universities. He further states that ten per cent of the students in tht institution of which he is president, Armour Institute, owe their presence to the Chautauqua influence."
V 1 o. if
Hon. Champ Clark, Speaker of the 'National House of Representatives, says:
"A great many newspaper wits shoot ,their shafts at chautauqua lecturers, and certain purse-proud editors undertake to make it a sin for a public man to lecture for pay. They think it the height of sarcasm to refer to a public man as a chautauquan. There is one great virtue in chautauqua money. It is clean money. You do not have to explain where you got it. If a man does not desire to go to hear a lecture, there is no law to compel him to do so.
The chautauqua has been a powerful force in directing the political thought of the country, which is largely sociological in these latter days. I defend the chautauqua and the chautauqua lecturer, with whom I have been associated, because they constitute as fine a group of men and women as can be found among the splendid citizenship of Anurica. I have a deep and abiding interest in them, and bid them a hearty godspeed in their work.' From The Arena.

A vicious dog owned by the Carnival company on Hohman street attacked J. D.

The north side sewer association, through Its representative, Mr. Brewbaker, will donate the. assessments made during the campaign against the sewer. Every member was assessed 25 cents a meeting. Meetings were held on an average of once a week for quite a while. Kubilr a Criminal f "As paradoxial as it may seem to you, John L. Rhode, president of the board, was ttie brggest criminal of the three,
said Mr. Delaney.
"He voted against the law as interpreted by the city attorney. In that a majority of property owners must sign a remonstrance. If this law be true Schroeter and Swanton, who are supposed to abide by the law were right.
Though the board be pledged, it made
no difference. What we want is abid ance by the law and honest govern merit."

COMPLAIN OF
ICE COMPANY During the recent hot spell Hammond residents have made many complaints, regarding the service given by the local Ice company and yesterday conditions had not teen bettered a practical. In a complaint made to The Times
last night, a house keeper on Detroit street gave out the following information: Ice had not been left at the house since last Thursday and a card had been in the window since that time. Where 100 pounds of ice would fill up the ice chest last summer this year the weight is so short that "100 lbs." given only half fills the box. Other residents in the neighborhood of Detroit street are indignant because, of the poor service and the small quantity of ice that Is given for 100
pound weight. Patrons are now compelled to pay 40 cents a hundred Tor ice.
Fixing the levy on candidates for the democratic primaries and drawing up rules for the conduct of the primaries was the main business at the meeting of the city central committee In the Jefferson Club rooms last night. None of the candidates today had any official knowledge Just what this assessment would be, and some of them were a bit peeved when they found last night that they would have no voice in
the manner. The city central committee toward the close of the meeting went into executive session behind closed doors there to deliberate just how much each office could be assessed for. It was agreed that the primaries alone would cost seven hundred dollars or more. To make sure of sufficient funds, it was decided that it
would be best to raise nine hundred dollars and to use what surplus there might be for the balance of the campaign. It was reported today that accordingly the mayoralty candidates would be assessed $100 a piece, the city clerk and the city treasurer candidates respectively $100 each and the
city judge candidates each $50. With three mayoralty candidates, as many judgeship aspirants and two for the
clerkship and two for the treasury a
sum of $$50 would be realized. The candidates for iouncilmen are not to
be assessed it is understood.
Another meeting is to be held next
Monday evening.

Association Meeting.
J. Wesley Reed, president of the South Side Improvement Association, was absent from the meeting of that
body last night in the Monroe street
chapel and It was decided to postpone
the election of an aldermanlc candidate from Conkeyville to b run on a
ticket independent of politics.
For that reason politics was left
alone by the assemblage and import
ant community matters tended to. A
mass meeting is (ailed tor Thursday
evenling at the chapel when the elec
tion la to take placa. At that meet
ing also Messrs. Weimer, Freeman and
Leverton, a committee appointed last
evening, are to report if possible the
decision of the W. C. T. U. hospital on the choosing of a alte for their $60,000 building. A site will be recommended to the building committee of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union by
the committee. Other big inducemets
are offered.
It came to light to-day that Kdward Payson Weston, the veteran pedestiaa. Is literally counting the ties of the Erie railroad and getting paid for it. His Journey from the Atlantic coast is
n distinct novelty by reason of this, as
Weston has the honer of being the (irat man ever paid for making the tank circuit on foot. Those of the Iilalto con-
tingen in Chicago, who have trod the
ties in lieu of the "boards." on various occasions when a show went broke, as
shows will, are sure to be jealous of
Weston when they hear of this.
E. J. Hawerkost, assistant passenger
agent of the Chicago & Erie railroad
arrived in Hammond this morning and
is awaintlng the arrival of 'Weston
who ia to arrive from Huntington. In
a publicity stunt for the Erie Weston
is paid to follow the right-of-way of

western from the big town on. He is
exDected in Hammond this afternoon
and will be universally recognized
having stopped her many times before.
A great sight awaits Weston when he
sees the Magnificent Noah's Ark, called
by courtesy a depot by the Erie.
Citizens anxiously await intelligence
whether he can walk faster than the
Erie milk train.
