had scarcely gone out to the public
when we became conscience stricken.
We now own UP to it and beg the par

amounts to 100000 copies weekly.
Last summer we felt it a duty owing
to the GiVeadam Gulch public to drive

now invite them to return and pick up

promise to interfere with them no

For years past when the mental
strain of the day was over and the
shades of night had fallen we have

from no avaricious spirit. 1t was
from no spirit of defiance toward
the moral law While we made the
best of our flushcs and full houses

We know that some of our subscribers

on us, as we are no hand on roller

THE PATH FINDER AGAIN.

The Path Finders" again made Ham
mond a visit today while on it's re-
turn trip to New York. It is the in
tention to find, If possible, a route to
the latter city without doubling up
on the course in returning. The run
will be from here to indianapolis,
thence eastward to Columbus. Pitts
burg, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New
York. The principle difficulty seems TO
be in the section between Hammond
and South Bend. where 1t has been
found that the course will conflict with
the path to be pursuer eastward from
Chicago, both in the entrance and de-
parture. 1t is difficult to see how the
path finder" can find two separate
roads from here TO South Chicago and
it is probable they will only use the
well known economy route leading
from Wolf lake to Jackson park.

superintendent of the Fort Wayne
schools, said that within a few days

Study's interest in the matter comes
from the fact that if the state superin-

Grafton to stand as 1t was returned TO
him, w. p. Morgan. the superintend
ent OF the Terre Haute schools Will
take the place now held by Study, for
the Terre Ifaute enumeration is larger
than that of Fort Wayne. and this
membership on the state board is de-
termined by the school enumeration

meratlon this year, as reported to the
state superintendents office. is 1899;
that of Fort Wayne is 1884. This
places Terre Haute ahead.

The Terre Haute enumeration re-

cording to these figures, Terre Haute

age over the year 1906. This is gain
of about % per cent. Indianapolis,
with a populotion of 225.00o people,
only showed a gain Of 3,710 in this last

BRUCE LAKE CHATAUQUA
NOW SEEMS ASSURED.

where he has been on business con-

At a meeting yesterday afternoon of
the citizens and Frank Gearney. gener-
al passenger agent of the Chicago,
Cincinnati & Louisville road. it was
decided to hold another meeting June
1 and at that meeting TO perfect the
organization and TO put up stock in
the new enterprise.
Over two hundred people attended
and every one seemed enthusiastic
over the proposed chautauqua There
seems TO be no doubt but what it Will
be a success.
Already the citizens who are in
terested in the holding of the chau-
tauqua have asked 10 have stock re-
served for them.

MAIL CARRIERS
SEEK MORE PAY
Want to Rise with the In
creased Rating of the
Hammond Postoffice.

At a meeting of the Hammond Mail
Carriers association last night, sever
al matters of Importance were dis
cussed by the members, the most i'm
portant of which was the increase they
were to expect at the beginning of the
next fiscal year. The complication
arises from the fact that at the recent
rerating of postof1ces. Hammond was
made a first class Office, having the
necessary revenue of $4,000 a year
Now the carriers want to know If their
wages will be changed to correspond
in which case they would benefit by
the increase IN the salaries of carriers
of first class offices which will take
place July 1. and amount to- 800 a
year.
A majority of the members do not
consider it wise to take steps to Sc
cure a readjustment of the scale, which
action would. if followed up. involve
nearly five thousand carriers through
out the country who are placed in a
similar position.
If Uncle Sans" postmen in this
town are not receiving all that is due
them, 1t will be useless to protest the
matter as that would imperil their po-
sitions and accomplish nothing. The
popular opinion of the case seems to
be that the postal authorities have cor
rectly interpreted the law, but that the
flaw lies in the law itself, and only
time is necessary to straighten out the
difficulty.
The mail carriers have been provided
with a commodious lounging room in
the basement of the federal building
which they decided to decorate and
make 1t look home-like so that they
might be able to enjoy spare moments
of the day before and after the regu-
lar hours of work.
Lots were then drawn to decide wher
each carrier was to have his vacation
after which matters of minor i'm
portance were discussed and the meet
ing adjourned.
