Ever Cross Lake Michigan?


One of the most delightful chances
for a good time is being offered to
the people Of Hammond by the Mems
auxiliary Of the Christian church It
is a moonlight excursion on Lake
Michigan to be given Saturday even
ing. Variety Is the spice Of life.
therefore we are all seeking a diver
sion from the routine pleasures. and
we do not often have the opportunity
= OF enjoying the moonlight trip on the
lake and returning the same even
ing. Music will be furnished by an
orchestra and will contribute. large
ly to the pleasure of the trip. The
Lena Knoblock is a double-deck ex-
cursion steamer and well equipped to
give comfort to the passengers. 1t
leaves the Indiana Harb0r pier at
1880, landing in time for the excur-
sionists to return TO Hammond on
the suburban theater train. Tickets
are for sale at Summers pharmacy
for fifty cents. 1t is little to be
wondered at that many are planning
to avail themselves of the low ex-
eursion rates to spend one moonlight
evening in the company of cheerful
people out on the breezy lake, away
from the noise of the city and, best
of all away from the seemingly ever
present mosquito.

Mosquito Eggs.

The eggs of the mosquito are fastened
together by a viscid secretion from the
insects body. From $50 to 800 eggs
are laid at a time, and the little boat
shaped mass is so constructed that il
will not overset. 1t cannot be sunk nor
in any way injured by wind, rain OF
water. 1t is abandoned by the insect
and the eggs are Matched by the heat
of the sun or atmosphere A temper
ature below freezing is said not tc

The Regret of His Life.

Sir William Grove, the eminent sci
enlist and jurist, never forgave himself
for not discovering the spectroscope
I had often observed" he said. that
there We're different lines exhibited in
the spectra of different metals ignited
in the voltaic arc, and if l had had any
reasonable amount of wit l ought to
have seen the converse-viz, that by
ignition different bodies show in their
spectral lines the materials of which
they are composed"

appeared from Tollgate, in the Blue

for their outing. Hundreds of searchers

search has been almost abandoned

characters who have their headquarters
in inaccessible places and many think
the boy has fallen into their hands.

RUSSIA ON THB BRINK
Czar Invites Disaster by Dis
solving Parliament.
Members Gather at Another Place
ana Adopt Revolutionary Ad-
dresses 60 the People.

With the imperial ukase dissolving
parliament, which was promulgated Sun,
day. the curtain rose upon probably the
last act IN the great drama OF the Rus
sian revolution. The people and the
government now stand face to face, and
upon the army depends the immediate
issue.
The imperial manifesto dissolying
parliament says that "the representa-
tlves Of the nation, instead of APPLYING
themselves to the work Of productive
legislation, strayed into sphere be
yond their competence and have been
making comments on the imperfectiODs
OF the fundamental laws, which can only
be modified by our imperial will. In
short, the representatives Of the nation
have undertaken really illegal acts, such
as an appeal TO the nation by the parlia-
ment. In dlsROlving parliament we con-
firm our immutable intention of keeping
this institution, and in conformity with
this intention We appoint March 5.
1907, the date Tor the conyOcation OF
the new parliament
The next day the members Of Rnssia's
outlaw parliament assembled at Yiborg
and adopted an address to the people.
the most significant paragraphs of which
are:
Citizens. stand up for yOur trampled-
on rights, for popular representation
and for an imperial parliament. Russia
must not remain for day without rep.
resentatiOD. You possess the means of
acquiring it. The government has,
without the assent of the popular repre-
sentatiVes, no right to collect taxes from
the people nor to summon the people to
military service. Therefore YOU are now
the government.
THE dissolved parliament was iusti.
he'd IN giving neither money or soldiers.
Should the government, however, con.
tract loans in order to procure funds,
such loans will be invalid without the
consent OF the popular representatives
The Russian people will never acknowl.
edge them, and will not be called upon
to pay them. Accordingly, until
popular representative parliament is
summoned, do not give a kOpec to the
throne or a soldier to the army. Be
steadfast in your refusal. No power can
resist the united and infexible will OF the
people.
''Cit zens. in this obligatory and un-
avoideble struggle your representatives
will be with you"
The masses of the Russian people, slow
OF thought and action, have not vet
aroused themselves to the gigantic up.
heaval which is sure to follow the dissO-
luton OF their parliament.
