Within a fifteen minutes ride to the heart of Hammond's market and business district, and within the City Limits, we have purchased and divided twenty acres into twenty-seven three quarter acre tracts. Located on Columbia Avenue between 17th and 18th Streets, with a fine, rich, black soil, level with the street, these tracts will make beautiful home sites for the man who wants "a home with a big yard." Each tract is especially adapted to small truck farming, poultry or small stock raising. It's a wonderful chance to reduce the high cost of living. . In a few years this, will be part of Hammond's finest residence district, and the man who buys now, can if he desires, subdivide his tract into about ten ordinary city size lots and sell them at a big profit. The present price is about the same as you would pay for a twenty-five foot residence lot in Hammond. ...... EaSV PAWJ2ER1TS. (SMTV taxes fusee f&m fuue MEfflffS

Revenue that was little short of din

bolical was exacted by the Phillies yesterday for the break in their winning streak caused by the Cubs the day before. Not satisfied with begin- ( ning a new one, the tribe of Dooln in- j filcted a near massacre, mauling three different Cub hurlers frightfully and ; rolling up a final count of 16 to 3. j Three home runs, one oft each of the pitchers trotted out by Manager Evers, featured the slugging. Fred Luderus, formerly a Cub, made two of , them and Beals Becker the other. A three-bagger by Cravath and a pair of two-cushion shots by Becker and Alexander raised the visitors' total

base-column to twenty-eight sacks on fifteen safe hits.

JA CK JOHNSON Paris, Aug. 9.- -Jack Johnson will not be permitted to box in this country. The "American boxing federa- i tlon" has requested the French federation to prohibit Johnson, the American negro pugilist, from fighting in France i and that body has decided to grant the request.

Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 9. Those Big Macks looked like coming champions for, about one-third of an inning yesterday against the aspiring White Sox. Thereafter they were beating a retreat and the combat wound up 4 to 1 in favor of the Chicagoans. Jim Scott and Ping Bodie were largely responsible for the victory. Scott because he was hurling the kind of ball that bad the heavy clouters badly fussed, and Ping because he drove a mighty one sway out into the bleachers in left center with Lord on the path. Those two runs would have been sufficient, but the Sox were In something of a ferocious mood and added a coulple more by consistent hitting. Hitting consistently for two days in succession seems too good to be true, but that Is what the Sox haye done. When Plng lammed out his homer there were two out. aLetr on Red Kuhn poled a beauty to left field when two were out and a man on third. Lord, Weaver and Chappell al got hits when they counted.

CHANCE BUYS BALTIMORE STAR

New Tork, Aug. 9. Manager Frank Chance of the New Tork American league club announced this afternoon that the deal with the Baltimore club of the International league for the . services of Fred Malsel had been com

pleted

WELSH SURE TO MEET RITCHIE Vancouver, B. C, Aug. 9. The manager of Freddie Welsh, the English lightweight champion, said today that It could be definitely stated thst Welsh would be Willie Ritchie's opponent in the fight scheduled here for Labor day. He said an agreement with the promoter, with the exception of a minor detail or two, had been reached. A dispute Is looked for over the weight and the selection of a referee Ritchie is understood to favor a Callforniap fo? ihe third man in the ring.

New Tork, Aug. 9. Gunboat Smith, a tall, rangy lad that halls from far away California, wll have to his credit in the record book of thlfc season a knockout over Pueblo Jim Flynn in five rounds at Ma lison Square Garden on the evening of August 8. When Gunboat scans that little paragraph , be It ever so often, there will come back to him - memories of one of the roughest experiences he ever had In a squared ring. None can take away from him the credit thagoes with a knockout. But those who were on the scene when the battle occurred will agree that Smith had to batter down steadily and pitilessly one of the garaest fighters that ever donned the mitts. The record will be correct that the knockout happened In the fifth round, but It will not mention that Jim Flynn, the Pueblo fireman, iad sprawled on the floor four times before the finish. - The termination of this bout was tragic in the extreme. Picture to yourself a long, lanky, well muscled athlete striking out at a tousled pated wildcat

PLAYER SMASHES UMPIRE'S SKULL Cambridge, O., Aug. 9. Because he is alleged to have assaulted F. S. Pollock of New Concord, who was umpire during a baseball game between teams composed of members of Sunday schools of two local churches, fracturing his skull, J.

Powers' hearing was delayed pending the outcome of Pollock's injurie. The assault took place during a twilight game late yesterday. Powers took exception to a ruling of the umpire and a fight followed. The game broke up In a row.
