Peters of Chicago. Defeats DIR. Whit
ney, Colorado Champion.

Omaha, Aug. 23.-CharIes S. Peters
of Chicago defeated DIR. Whitney, the
Colorado champion, in the final round
of the Middle West championship
with the score SO, 6-3, Us. The vet
cram played hard game and for
time it looked as though he was go
ing to brace, as he had on the previ-
Gus day against Sweet of Des Moines
Peters excelled by rushing to the net
more than the doctor, who was forced
to sprint back and to and fro on the
base line. DR.. Whitney sreturns seemed
to lack the vim they had when he de-
feated Sweet, often falling short and
dropping into the net. The remark
able endurance of. the Coloradoan,
who is 81 years old. is shown by the
fight he made for the third set. The
surprise of the afternoon was the de-
feat Of the Omaha team, Con Young
and Sam Caldwell. by Cub Potter
and Mcconnell. The kids excelled at
the net. Their work was fast and
they showed great team work Cald-
wells attempts to lob and drive the
youngsters back almost invariably
failed. In the forenoon Peters. and
Hayes defeated Sweet and Dosh and
Young and Caldwell defeated Moore
and Faust of ST. Joseph. Mcconnell
and Potter are now in the final round
and will meet Peters and Hayes for
the championship tomorrow. Peters
meets Hayes for the singles cham

FOR FUNERALS OR FUN?

The legislature of Wisconsin has
passed law against the holding of a
boat race on Decoration day on the
ground that it will be a dissertation of
a day that was designed for better
things The members of the G.. A. r.
are waging a bitter fight against the
tendency of American youth to regard
all off days as holidays. If the men,
bers of the G. A. r. think Decoration
day should be spent only in the ceme-
teries they have the right to suggest
If not to dictate. If the veterans of
the civil war would cover the Union
with pail of gloom every time May
80 comes around the younger genera
tion of course most fall in line. We
doubt, however, If the younger genera
ton, whose thoughts lightly turn to
baseball or boat racing every time this
or any other holiday comes round, will
yield anything in patriotic spirit to
those who seek by legislative enact
ment to preserve the "sacredness and
solemnity of Decoration day"
We doubt. also. if The heroes who
lie beneath the shade of the plying
cypress and pine" would wish that
their grandsons refrain from manly
sports on the day set apart for the
decoration of their graves. Holidays
since time out of mind the world over
have been celebrated as days of re-
Joicing. Many of them commemorate
events that have at the time of their
occurrence brought gloom to many
hearts. No great victory was ever
gained that did not carry with it it's
burden Of temporal sorrow. But in
the end they have worked for the good
of many. Every country celebrates
events of war-victories won by sword
and FIRE. This country's commemora-
tion of the victory which decided that
this country was to be one and in
separable falls largely on Decoration
day. There is not a human being
alive perhaps who does not deplore
the fact that the soldiers honored by
Decoration day had to die. There are
very few, however, who have not re-
joiced in what their death and the
efforts of those who lived to tell the
tragic tale, brought to the United
Safes and its citizens. Decoration day
in this sense should be a day of re-
joicing as well as one of tender solicit
tude for the graves of dead heroes.
The G. A. r. is getting too sensitive.
They must remember that they were
once young themselves and be glad
that there are still young hearts and
muscles who warm to the play Of the
oar and the swing of the baseball
bat, and who, in times of need, would
be just as ready to so to their coun-
try's aid as the members OF the G. A.
Il. were when they were young and
trimming with patriotic enthusiasm
which has resulted in their organiza-
ton.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1907-05-02

No one has doubted that the members
Of the new board had hoped the out
going one would serve as the scapegoat
for their own contemplated protection
Of the resorts of ill-fame that line
West State street to the shame of the
village across the line Since they are
made, however. to shoulder the burden
of responsibility themselves, with the
threats OF Markham ringing in their
ears and the probability of the dives
being put out OF business anyhow by
the states attorney, the newly elected
trustees may try to make a virtue of
necessity, and vote against the dives.
In that case it will look as though
they had overlooked a good bet in fail
ing to get in with little thunder
along those lines before it was too
late TO impress the citizens. This po-
litical game is certainly a bewildering
business.

MORE POLICE NEEDED.

With the growth of the city of Ham
mond comes that evil which must at
tend the advent of business, new resi-
drunkenness. Hammond in the early
days succeeded in escaping for the most
part the usual run of lawlessness that
must necessarily be a part of a city
Not that Hammond is today seriously
threatened with any outbreak OF the
criminal class, but the records of the
Hammond police department show an
interesting study. year ago the
number of arrests at Hammond averag-
ed about thirty to the month. As the
city soon began to spread itself, new
corners arrived within the gates, and
large business enterprises opened their
doors and brought thousands of strang-
ers within the boundaries, the arrest
book began to grow. The police de-
partment has not increased in numbers
although 1t has greatly increased in
efficiency. The month of March show
ed the record of arrests as having
been over twice as large as during the
same number of days the preceding
year. The month of April showed a
decided gain, and the arrests increased
about IL per cent over the month OF
March the same year. In March,
seventy-three offenders were lodged be-
hind the bars and in april the number
increased to eighty three arrests for
the thirty days. With the good things
we must accept the bad.

WITH THE EDITORS
FOOL MEN AND WOMEN.

Women sometimes complain that
men are unjust in intimating that
women are anxious to get married
The men are expected to have con-
tempt for the jokes which make it ap-
pear that women rush madly after men
and the prospects. But isn't the i'm
preston which some men have due to
the conduct of some women? There
is a case at point now occupying the
attention of Indianapolis. A few days
ago a man from Missouri registered at
one of the leading hotels of the CAPT
tai city. He is supposed to be mil
lionaire. He announced that he is
looking for wife and he described
his ideal The man from Missouri
found out that advertising brings re-
suits. For two days he has been
besieged by callers, each one of whom
believes herself to be the woman he
is looking for. Letters have come to
him by the hundred. The telephone
calls have been many. OF course due
allowance must be made for the jolxers,
but when a woman will call at the
hotel and seek husband she does not
do so as a humorist. Of course we all
know that the women who offer them
serves IN this case as commodities OF
the market are not the home builders
they are not the women to whom the
nation looks for its future welfare.
Just what the average man thinks Of a
woman who would make such an ex-
hibition OF herself wouldn't look we'll
in print And yet we are told that the
man from Missouri received calls from
women who appeared fashionably
dressed and seemed intelligent. But ii
would be unjust and unwarranted TO
judge womankind by the performance
of a few foolish women, neither
would it do to condemn all men be-
cause one fool with money started out
to buy a wife as he would do If pur-
chasing colt When 1t comes to real
folly it is hard to say whether men or
women can attract the more atten-
tion. But the world expects more from
women-the ideals set for her are
higher. Consequently when she makes
an exhibition of herself the effect IS
