Each
 Week

brings something new. Last week we had the largest snow storm of the season, and you can bet your life we were on hand with well made sleds for each purchaser of just one pound of our Baking Powder. This week we congratulate the mayor Of our city for naming good man for as- sessor, but it took him too long to do the trick, and, by the way, this week we are going to give a good large size handy clothes dryer with only one pound of Baking Powder, and 1t might be we'll for the mayor to se- cure few of these dryers and let the disappointed aspirants to office hang themselves up to dry. Remember these handy dryers sell for 50 cents each all over this glorious country, but we give one with each pound or our warranted good Baking Powder, 45 cents per pound. Next week 1T our latest attraction arrives on time, some one will get real bargain. and if you think we are extending to you a pipe dream or some other eaten penny affair, just wait, watch ana see. Remember, your money back II it's not real bargain. Our teas ana coffees are, as usual, the right price and the nice tasting kind at

LENTEN REGULATIONS.
Bishop Tierney's Letter to Pastors of
 the Diocese

Bishop Tierney has addressed to the pastors of the Roman Catholic diocese of Hartford his annual letter regarding the observance of Lent. As to exemption from fast and absti- hence the letter says: s
 The church excuses from the law of fast: All persons under 21 or over 60 years of age; the sick and infirm; women in delicate condition; those whose labor is exhausting. Confess sors and pastors may dispense others for special reasons.
 It should be remembered that ex- emption from fast does not exempt from abstinence. The church exempts from abstinence the sick who are in manifest need of meat. Pastors and confessors may dispense others for sufficient cause.
 The holy see has granted to work ing people and their families spe- cial indult which dispenses them from abstinence on all days of the year except Fridays. Ash Wednesday, Wednesday of holy week and the Vigil of Christmas. This indult is issued in favor of the laboring class who find it difficult to observe the law of abstinence. Those who take advantage of this indult are expected to perform some other work of pen ance as substitute for abstinence. It must be remembered that those who are dispensed from the law of abstinence are still bound by the law of fast and are allowed the use of meat only once day on fast days, unless they are otherwise dispensed from the law of fast.

Many complaints are being received
about the negligence of the railroads

ularly on Sunday nights. The crossing

result.

the tracks They waited and waited
for the signal to approach. but as it
was not coming, one of the ladies got
out of the vehicle and went ahead to
see if they had clear way. When she
reached the house on the tracks she
found that there was no Waterman and
consequently the gates had not been
lowered She was compelled to do the

Gary Board of Trustees
Postpones Action on This
Important Subject.
TO PAVE WASHINGTON STREET
Petition By Owners to Improve This
Thoroughfare Goes Through
Other Business.
Especial to Lake County Time..)

Gary, Sept 9.-The board of trustees
held its regular meeting Saturday
afternoon with all members present and
quite a large audience in attendance.
The audience consisted mainly of seek
ers after the telephone franchise. which
again went over. and those interested
in the letting of the garbage contract.
The telephone franchise was the
paramount issue Attorney w. B.
Needham of Chicago, presented a new
franchise ordinance and Attorneys
Harris & Bretsch presented an amend
ed one substituting it for the one they
filed before. Mr.. Needham is under
stood to be representing Independent
interests in Chicago who deemed this
a strategical point. This makes four
bidders and 1t is understood that there
Will be at least two additional at the
next meeting The entire subject was
again referred. The board will meet
during the week to discuss the situa-
ton and get each others ideas as to
what should be demanded.
Want Washington Street Improved
Several citizens attended the meet
ing In behalf of a petition to improve
Washington street that was presented
during the session. This came up in
the early part of the meeting and it
was decided to improve the street with
an eight foot sidewalk, sandstone curb
and thirtyfour feet of macadam street
to have Stag bed covered with bonding
gravel and crushed granite similar to
the present improvement on Eleventh
avenue. Every resident on the street
and the largest owners signed the pc
tition and it is their hope that the
street will be ready for traffic before
Broadway in that part of town The
order calls for improvement from the
Wabash to Hobart road or Twenty fifth
avenue.
Under unfinished business came the
letting of the garbage collecting and
disposing contract. This went to John
Cox at 1926 per day for team and
helper. Cox has been a persistent
bidder and the town has no doubt let
the work to a competent man. He
handled similar jobs in Chicago and
other places. The proposition under
which he bid called for tight wagons
and enough of them to do all the
work thoroughly.
Change Day of Meeting.
The next meeting Will be held in the
office of the clerk in the Mccormick
building on Broadway near Eighth
avenue 1t was decided also to change
the time of the meeting from Saturday
afternoon to Tuesday afternoon with
in the next month. Final action will
be taken in this within the next few
weeks, some of the street Improvement
work having been set for meetings or
Saturday several weeks in advance
thus preventing any change while that
IS under way. The board also dis
cussed informally the erection of city
hall and fire station together with 6
new police station nearer the center
of town.
