Happenings of a Day In Lake County's Lively Capital

From the Diary of Si. Lence

Conslderln" th' many things thet woman is man's superior at. It's Jest likely thet she kin ro f th' polls 'n cast a fairly Intelligent vote without rulnin" th country a-dotn' It. Th' most abused thing In th" world Is a bit o public grlven authority. "Organs Live After Cat Dies Thirteen Hours." Headline. Jeb -Tite's got 'n organ llrln' 'n their cat's been dead live years. An advertising crew. Intent on billing Lake and adjoining counties will leave Crown Point today with pot and paint to thoroughly bill the country advertising the corning Lake county fair. The job of posting the thre or four counties with county fair posters and advertising literature is a big one and the route has to be carefully mapped out so that no large space of country in the entire route will be left uncovered or neglected. The actual work of preparation and arranging for the big fair has now commenced and the officials of the affair will spend busy days and many sleepless nights from now on until the 113 fair is a thing of the past. Valparaiso will be the attraction for the baseball fans at Erie Park tomorrow afternoon with Llnthian and Wag ner as the battery for Crown Point, with a strong bunch of players supporting them. The lineup will be practically the same as defeated Gary In the best game of the season last Sunday and a great game is expected. Athletic rivalry has always been intense between the Porter and Lake county Hubs and there is no place where the rivalry is so keenly exhibited as in the great American game. A good attendance should be present to support the home team in their battle for the northern Indiana championship. Secretary Fred T. Wheeler of the Lake County Fair Association says that th harness races this year promise to outclass any like exhibition ever given by the society applications already pouring in for entries on the three days racing card. The four six

hundred dollar stake races offer a tempting morsel to the horsemen of the country and to show the extent and latitude in which the Lake oounyty fair is known, the secretary States that he had entered horses from the furtherest confines of the country east and west, one horse being entered from the eastern part of the state of Maine and another from the California coast. The free attractions this year will be especially good and the coming fair promises to beat all recent efforts in that line. Mrs. Chas. Sings of Kenosha, Wis., Is visiting Crown Point friends and relatives for a few days. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Wheeler were Gary visitors yesterday and while there engaged a house where they will reside about the middle of August, when Mr. Wheeler will assume his duties as manager of the new Gary theatre. Mrs. D. A. Root visited with friends in Chicago yesterday. Dr. and Mrs. Chas. J. Tinkhatn returned last evening from a -visit in Chicago. Many excursions will be made by Crown Point people tomorrow to the Kankakee river, where the fishing is said to be especially good at present. F. O. Coleman is driving a new automobile. Some difficulty is being experienced by local contractors in getting the necessary supply of material owing to an. alleged shortage of cars.
