ORGANIST
GREETED BY CROWD
An audience which occupied every eat in St. Paul's Lutheran church In Hammond, heard Edward Rochlin the new York concert organist last night in an excellent program of selections from the masters. His performance coupled with a minor program by St. Paul's chair, stand out as the premier musical event of the season in Hammond. His program contained a variety of selections ample enough to permit him to display his remarkable talents. One of the. program's features was an improvisation of his own, and it was considered proper that he should also Include selections from Gilmarit and TVidor the famous French teachers .under whom he studied. After the concert the organist expressed himself as being very much pleased with the organ In St. Paul's. The choir, under the direction of Prof. C. Linsenman with Miss Gertrude presiding at tho organj added to the variety of the program with two well rendered numbers. Miss Adele Merx was the soloist for the evening.

OPERA SUNG IN WESTHAMMOND The opera season in West Hammond
will have an auspierous opening to
night with the singing of "Finafore" by the choir of the First Christian
church of Hammond under the leader
ship of Clark Learning and with the
assistance of a concert orchestra.
To West Hammond the visit of the
"Pinafore" players will mean as much
as the premier of grand opera does to blaxe Chicago. The auditorium of the
Wentworth school, the bt nia. r.t ta
kina available in the Calumet region
for such purposes, has been decorated
and made doubly attractive. The stage
is large enough to accommodate tho
replica of Her Majesty's ship and Its crew of "frolicsome tars. J
Since the initial nerf ormanoes of
Pinafore the cast, which remains the
same, has been drilled an the show
perfected. James Graves, no longer in the lime light of politics, can now devote his undivided attention to warblinsr Jack's passionate adoration of Josephine. Miss Marguerite Haefer,

Class Prospering. The class of men that meets In the auditorium of the Chamber of Commerce to master the intricacies of interstate commerce, ratings, routings and regulations, has increased to an enrollment of sixty-eight. One member is president of a local industry, many are men commanding large salaries, and . others are aspiring youths just out of high school. J. E. Armstrong, represestlng the Interstate Commerce and Traffic Service, is not yet satisfied. He states that the demand for men in that field is unlimited, in fact Just beginning. "Every big concern needs a man with knowledge of the service. They will soon come to a stage in the game where they cannot be without one," said Armstrong. "Competition will compel it."
No business of special importance was transacted by the members of Triumph Council- No. 1 IX of L. at their meeting last evening in the I. O.
j O. F. Hall in East State street. The session was made very short on account
of the lecture by Mrs. Dillon of Chicago, who came to Hammond at the invitation of Triumph Council. She talked on health and her lecture was found very interesting and instructive. At least seventy-five Hammond women were in attendance. Tea ana wafers were served'followlng the lecture. The next regular meeting of Triumph Council will take place in two weeks when the applications of several candidates for membership will be considered. A meeting of the members of Golden Rule Council No. 1 D. of L. will be held this evening in the K. of P. Hall in South Hohman street. It will be the

INTERESTING ANNOUNCEMENT The management of the Orpheum theater makes an unusually interesting announcement in the fact that George Broadhurst's world famous po
litical drama, "The Man of the Hour," is to be seen at that house commenc
ing Thursday,. November 20. This play, which ran for two full seasons
In New York and had several long
runs in Chicagohas been considered
by many competent critics as r the greatest play of its kind "ever wrftten
by an American playwright. It was the original stepping stone by which Mr. Broadhurst climbed to his present position of America's foremost dramatist; being the first successful drama Mr. Broadhurst had written, although he had achieved a fair degree of success with farce comedies. While the prices charged for the performance of this great dramatic story are even lower than those usually charged for a mediocre melodrama, press reports from the numerous towns In which this company has appesred make it clear that the production is as good as any that has been made of this splendid drama-

PREPARE FOR BASKET BALL With but two. more weeks of football, gridiron togs will be laid aside in Lake county and basket ball will be taken up in Its stead. How much interest is to be staged in indoor winter sport is not known, but past years, especially the last, has shown that
basket ball has gained much favor in
Lake county where many fast quintets have been put into the field. Last year the crack Whiting high school and the Whiting Owls captured
the county championship, but- with so many strong teams being organized it is evident that they will have some
strong contenders to play this season.
Hammond, Gary, Crown Point and Whiting have already put speedy squads on the floor and reports come
from each city that prospects look
bright.

ball stars and practice work will be started this week. Hammond's city
team will play their first, game next Saturday evening when tfley will face the fast Gary "Y" squad.
Good Stock Company. The Fracer Stock company continues at the Bijou in one-act plays. It is the third week of the family in Hammond and they now vie with Jack Bessy in popularity.

Eugene Walter's greater play "The Wolf is now playing at the Orpheaum theate. No play of recent years has had such a wonderful run of business as has ben accorded this romantic story of the Canadian woods. It is claimed that more people have witnessed this play than any drama ever before sent on tour, and it is remarkable when one stops to realise the public will be able to see it at such very low prices.
INTERESTED v IN CONFERENCE East Chicago and Indiana Harbor are much Interested in the sessions of the conference of associated charities and corrections. A number of delegates to the convention, including men of much prominence, occupied the pulpits of the local churches Sunday morning, some of them speaking at the evening services also. Their talks had the effect of interesting a large number of those who heard them, to the extent of making a trip to Gary yesterday, and some of them are going to repeat the trip today to attend the conference. Superintendent and Mrs. Bliss, representing the school for the feebleminded at Fort Wayne, gave an interesting talk at the Indiana Harbor Methodist church Secretary Darling of the board of pardons, and Von Klein Smith of the Jeffersonville reformatory both addressed the congregatlonallsts at the Masonic temple. Other churches hfed speakers from the conference, the meetings being all largely attended. A feature of yesterdas' morning's
meeting of the conference was a talk by Superintendent E. N. Canine of East Chicago on the subject of truancy.
Getting Publicity. The Metropolitan Life Insurance has had published 600.000 Boy Scout circulars telling each boy the merits of the organization. Hammond of course is getting its share of this literature. Dr. Johnson of 697 Calumet avenue is addressing boys on the care of teeth, the requisites of good health and other professional subjects. The Hammond rder of Scouts has a
UNIVERSAL MONEY ORDERS URGED Washington, D. C, Nov. 18. Officials of the postoffice department have finally determined to urge congress during the December session to amend the postal laws so that money orders may be paid at any postoffice in the country, although drawn on a given office. . A committee appointed by Alexander Dockery, third assistant postmaster general, has worked out all of the preliminary details and drafted a proposed provision of law for the inauguration of "universal" money orders in the postal service. The express companies of the country already are working in opposition
to the proposed Innovation, informa
tion having reached the postoffice de partment that they are strongly opposed to it. As a matter of fact, the express companies have good ground for their opposition, since they realize that universal postal mosey orders would mean a sharp curtailment of the money order business heretofore handled by them.
