Dear Grandma:
After leaving you, had an unevent-
full journey to Humbolt. where we only
had ten minutes to change cars. I
was taken to the hotel and changed
and placed on my hot wafer bottle,
which kept me warm and sleepy all the
way through to Cincinnati. slept well
all night. waking up about every two
hours and taking nourishment.
created quite sensation all along
the line for being the youngest traveller
ever heard Of. Many men and women
expressed desire for me. but my at
tendant would not give me up. Every
one wanted to do something for me, SO
was well cared for. At the union de-
pot. Cincinnati, everybody wanted to
look at me. and my attendant seemed
pleased to make a side-show Of me.
On leaving Cincinnati my first mis-
fortune occurred. A friend volunteered
to get my bottle filed with hot water,
but from some mistake by the engineer
the water came back almost cold, and
| suffered with cold until | arrived at
Norwood. Kicked furiously and yelled
to beat the band and finally succeeded
in getting the bottle filed again. i am
learning young to look after myself
Had quite rough ride to Greenfield,
where we had to wait an hour for our
train. Made number Of acquaint-
ances at the hotel where we stopped.
We landed in cambridge at 8 .. m.
the following evening after leaving
you. Everybody seemed glad to see
me, and have been in good health
ever since. Slept until 8 o'clock this
morning So Grandma could ret her
work done. Have just had ny break
fast and bath and am ready to 90 10
sleep again, | have a nice place to
sleep. Mrs, Dr., Davis has kindly
loaned me \ little basket that her little
girl once used.
! hope you will not feel lonesome
without me, and as soon as ! can will
come back to see you. We are looking
for you right soon. Give my love to
everybody and tell them | am we'll and

NOW ITS 4 NEW
SUBURBAN DEPOT
Western Indiana to Spend
81, 100000 to $2OO,OOO,-
600 on Station.


The Western Indiana Railroad COM
pany is considering a plan to spend be-
tween $1.5OO,OoO and 100000 to pro-
vide a new suburban passenger sta
tion at Polk street and Plymouth court.
1t is the pu. pose OF the company to
remodel the old Fisher building and
convert it into a station exclusively
for suburban business and for Offices
for the company. The present build
ing is of six stories and of brick con-
struction.
1t is proposed to extend the new
station along Plymouth court to Tay-
lor street and to run six suburban
tracks into it. The tracks and the
improvements would in no way inter
fere with present streets or alleys
Benjamin Thomas. president Of the
Western Indiana, said yesterday that
the subject was under consideration.
We have practically determined to
construct the new station" said he.
but it is yet to be decided whether
we will do it this year or one year
from the coming summer / would not
be surprised if the improvement would
be begun this year"
Terminal Now Congested
There are about forty suburban
trains a day in and out of the Polk
street depot and the terminal is ex-
ceedinGly congested. For several
years the company has been purchas-
ing property between the present de-
pot site and State street with view
to ultimately putting up a new and
mammoth passenger station covering
all of the property along Polk street.
Such terminal, however, will not be
erected soon if the present plan of sep
arating the suburban and the through
passenger service is carried out. Five
roads now occupy the Polk street sta
tion-the Monon, Santa Fe, Erie, Wa
bash and Grand Trunk. All, with the
exception of the Santa Fe. are joint
owners, while the Santa Fe is only a
tenant

for the prize honor. Many more are
working on the quiet and promise to
bring in a large share of votes for
themselves by the end of this week.
In some instances in the foregoing
list votes have been added by the
friends of the candidates of which
they will know nothing until they read
the report. This action of their
friends is another instance of having
friends who were not taken into con-
sideration and proves to the eandi-
dates that more people are interested
in their good fortune than they real
ize. 1t will be undoubtedly encourag-
ing and the only way to appreciate
the kindness is by getting out and
doing little more hustling on their
own part.
Standings of the candidates in the
other districts Will be printed as the
opportunity presents itself

CLAUSE PUTS AN END TO
INSTITUTIONAL JUNKETING
Modest Paragraph Embodied in Ap-

Especial to Lake County Tines

Indianapolis, Ind, April 16.-Those
connected with the board of state char
tiles and the different education, be-

of the state VIII not be pleased to learn
the full import of a clause in the gen
eral appropriation act passed by the
last general assembly, with reference
to expenses on junketng trips For
such trips are eliminated by the pro-
visions of one paragraph of the act.
1t reads as follows:

son, trustee or commissioners, other

to such travelling and hotel expenses
within the state of Indiana and not
elsewhere"
That's all there is to the section.
but that means death to little trips to
Minneapolis to attend national CON
ferences of charities and correction,
and all little trips of similar kind by
anyone named above-which is pretty
much everyone in the employ of the
state.
These little trips have bNen taken
rather frequently within the past two
years. Most OF the state departments
have fndulged in them. and the law
permitted the indulgence It was not

JUDGE SAYS CAN'T
LICENSE SALOONS
Another Decision Has Been
Rendered Regarding
Constitutionality.

Indianapolis, April 5.-Prohibition-
lists are elated over another decision
against the saloons that is greatly in
their favor. The ruling was rendered
on Saturday in the county circuit court
at Noblesyille by Judge Ira w. Chris
tian, and is in effect that ell saloons
are nuisances and that it is not legal
to run saloon in this state. In the
course of his ruling Judge Christian
said:
The saloon. which has been repeated
ly held to be the prime source of all
crime. has no right to exist at COM
mon law and the license which grants
1t the privilege is not a restrictive
measure, but it is the granting of a
right which heretofore did not exist.
| am therefore of the opinion that a
law creating a business dangerous to
public morals. to public safety, to pub
lie peace, to public health, is not with
in the police power of the state
The liquor business Iegalized by
statute, as shown by a long line of
decisions already cited subverts jus
tice, creates disorder and destroys lib
erty. have arrived at the conclu-
sion that the license law is uncon-
stitutional as being in contravention
of the purpose and spirit of the consti-
tuition of Indiana.
Case Fought Two Years.
The defendant in the case, which has
been in the courts for over two years.
is Edward L. Sopher, a saloonkeeper,
and the complainant is Nancy r. Mid
dleton, who charged that Sopher ran
saloon in room with a fixed par
tition across it eight feet in heighth.
which, it was alleged, is contrary to
the law governing saloons in Indiana.
Sopher was indicted for maintaining
nuisance, and the result of the rul-
ing at Noblesville is that he will have
to stand trial.
In ruling at Lebanon on Feb. IS

they certainly are. upon good reason

The nothing doing" sign at the en-
trance to the pool room at Dearborn
Park was emphasized today by two
metropolitan police with drawn re-
volvers. Attorney General Bingham
and his assistant. Mr. White. formed
part of the posse that went over from
Hammond at noon today. No attempt
was made to force an entrance and
the blackboards were all turned to the
wall.
The Wabash railroad ran its first
train out, but the other two were flag
ged.
At the instance of Attorney General
Bingham, acting under instructions de-
livered to him by the sick man at
Indianapolis Bud White. the most
persistent purveyor of horse racing
chance Chicago has ever known, has
been cited to appear before Judge Nc
Mahon of the city court on May and
show cause why every board in the
fence and every plank in the floor of
the big frame shack that nestIes be-
tween the tracks of the Pennsylvania
and Wabash at Clark Station in this
county should not be considered a
gambling toll and therefore a fl sub
ject for destruction.

Buildings to Go Up on Every
Available Site in Busi-
ness District.
ALL ARE RENTED, TOO
Tony Tappler, Fred Rimbach and
George Eder Will Put Up Busi-
ness Blocks Next Spring.

After next spring there will not be
an unoccupied corner in the business
district of Hammond. The demand for
store rooms has become so great that
they are It a premium and the demand
must be supplied in some manner.
Tony Taper has positively declared
that he is to put up a fine new mercan-
tile and office building on the corner
Of Sibley and Holman streets, and it
said that this structure would have
been completed this spring If 1t had
not been for a squabble between two
of the prospective lessees
The location is such a good one shat
there has been a scramble for every
store and Office room in the building
1t is said that Mr.. Taper and others
have been impressed with the fact that
every room in the Hammond building
is either rented or spoken for and that
the tendency hereafter will be to build
down town Office buildings at least
three or four stories high and install
elevators.
Jake Rimbach, Too.
Jake Rimbach has decided to build
up the corner Of Holman street and
Rimbach avenue with a three or four
complete in every particular. Already
every store room has been spoken for
and Mr.. Rimbach says that he could
rent another building like it If he had
place to put It,
1t lis understood that the Lion store
is to have the fifty feet next to their
department store and that the fruit
merchants on the corner are to have
the remaining fifty feet Mr.. Rimbach
has also rented part of the Office rooms
UP stairs and could easily rent the rest
Of them II the building was going up
right away.
George Eder has seen the signs of
THE TIMES and will erect a business
block on his property next to the school
building, opposite the broken corner
Mr.. Eder already has rented part of
his building and the rest will doubt
less be rented before the building is
completed

cupied the real estate men and others
are asking We're next?
