Mayor John D. Smalley last evening

pronounced a kindly paternal benediction of happiness on the twelve retiring members of the Hammond common council. Marion Hower of the Ninth, responded, and Otto Duelke, who

has called the roll of the council for eight years In the performance of his

duties as city clerk, thanked the mem

bers, one and all, for their courtesy in

the past.

By adjourned and special sessions, crowded into half an hour, the council

was able to enact two pieces of legis

lation last evening, made necessary in order that city business might be

closed for 1913 without any deficiencies.

An ordinance appropriating $180 for payment of Interest on land purchased

for the pumping station, was intro

duced at the first session., and a trans

fer of $10,000 from the water fund to

the general fund. The last Is signifi

cant of what municipal ownership

means. The water works is a very

valuable asset. ? Said Mayor Smalley after the ad

jotirnment of the regular meeting at

which the appropriations introduced and passed at the special sessions were j approved: "I want to express my appreciation of the uniform courtesy shown me, and I wish every man the best of luck for the future." Marion Hower, retiring from the Ninth, thanked the mayor on behalf of the council and said a few words of appreciation. "I continue to regret that this is my last night," said Otto Duelke. "I have called ''the roll for eight years." GETTINGFEED

FOR BANQUET With a view of holding their-annual banquet next week Desk Sargent Oscar Borchert and Officer Ben Strong, representing the Hammond police department, left this morning for the wilds oi Monon, Ind., where they will join a squad of hunters. The hunt will last a period of several days and during that time, the Hammond ntmroda hope to capture enough rabbits for a battalion of police and their friends. Each year the police give a banquet to the city officials and their friends and those who attended the last "feed" are anxous that they will receive another invitation. According to present arrangements the "Bunnies' ' witl be prepared "Hassenpfeff er a la Trost" and the proposed fixing will be fit for a royal family to cast their eyes upon.

Betsy Bobbins.

Betsy BODDins, me merry sparkling comedy which comes to the Orpheum Thursday Is one of those clean, wholesome playlets, ao full of real, solid fun that your laugh yourself weak; yet nothing in it that could offend the most refined tastes; a comedy to take your wife to, or your sweetheart or the "kiddies." Miss Lillian Mortimer, the brilliant young comedienne, is in the title role, which insures a fine grasp of the humor of the piece. Betsy Bobbins Is a typical "Yankee girl," with the clever wit, sharp tongue and shrewd business sense, which distinguishes the New Englander. But Jlttle Betsy combines the delightful faculty of seeing the "funny side" of a situation, and she makes you see it with her. There is a story of romance and

unrequited love Interwoven, founded on fact, but the pathos only serves to throw into greater brilliancy the quaint humor and merry comedy of the piece. It is one of those jolly compounds of fun and fancy good for' a laugh a minute.

Waiting for Snow. Scores of unemployed men in Hammond now are waiting eagerly for severe weather when the demand for their services will begin. This is especially true of railroaders who have returned from the summer roads in the north and are waiting for winter service in the Calumet region. At present
